Last season Staggs elevated himself to be arguably the game's premier centre. His power and strength were fantastic and his match winning ability was world class at times. I personally think this deal is fair for both parties. When you look at the salaries if some of his peers (Manu 600k, Cotric...

Getting a player get through a knee injury during COVID and helping them whilst in a Bali police station was supposed to carry weight with the family too...

Don't disagree and that could work. I guess my logic was that the 12 month window gives the club the best opportunity to see the player in reserve grade / NRL level without having to take a risk before they turn 18. But fair play to the club if they want to gamble. My cap exemption isn't %...

Development contracts need a complete overhaul. Only way poaching will stop. I’m not an expert, but just my thoughts on one solution: For starters, these development contracts should be registered with the NRL. Eligible for players 13-17 years of age only. NRL needs to establish protocols for...

One press conference in and already Donaghy is showing a backbone, presence and authority with the club's best interest in mind. How refreshing and a complete contrast to Paul White's shriveled raisins.

After solemn thought these past few days, I'm convinced the Club needs to fall on the sword of its failed predecessors and go and offer a 5 year deal multi-million dollar deal to Sam Walker. He should've always been a Bronco. With his family in Queensland I don't think it would be difficult to...

Forever in our shadow.

Why have you bought into the media drivel that we are an extremely bad team and the Titans are an extremely good one? I think you're opinion has been affected by our draw and ladder position. I wrote in an earlier post that attitude and effort is 10-fold on what we were dishing out last year...

The Reynolds deal to Cronulla should be used as a market guide to any offer we are considering for Moses. Yes I appreciate he is older, but is also more consistent and a better player IMO. He is currently on 825k from what is reported. Would he leave Parra for the same money? No. The way I see...

I'm gobsmacked at this talk in the media that we are worse than last year. Where has this come from? There was lack of hunger, desire and fight last year with most of the squad giving up. This is nowhere near the case with Kevvie's 2021 version. There is a noticeable difference in the attitude...

And I'd love to watch Seibold explain why they chose Dearden over Sam Walker and how on Earth he thought he was a fullback! No Harvard lecture will save him from that one.

Croft is a trainwreck of a player, robotic in movement, lacks presence and is the most error-prone half in the NRL. I would happily see the back of him and the argument of 'continuity' and 'combinations' will never stand true. He is not an NRL calibre player and after this deal expires he will...

With Glenn's injury i'd love to see Piakura named - at least on the 21 man squad. Barrett said he was NRL ready when the Bulldogs were trying to sign him so why can't we? Especially if it can stops a bench consisting of 3 props....

Where would the offer come from? For Christ sake we couldn't even pay for his Uber from Ipswich to Brisbane... It highlights the complete ineptitude of the organisation across all levels.

A mid season swap of Dearden for Drinkwater to play fullback would instantly improve our team.

Walsh should've been given the #1 spot from round 1. We were grooming him for years and he Should've been given the warm and fuzzies and made to feel important. But we are where we are now. Bottom 4 spine and no depth. We need to be acquiring some top talent soon. Even the Dogs have a great...

And what would Hynes cost per season? $400k-$500k? We had one of those. Reece Walsh. He signed a 1.2M deal for 3 years and we couldn't match it so he walked. So fed up with this organisation. The kid will be a star. Same as Sam Walker. How we butchered that is beyond me.

It would be very easy to look at the opponent and betting odds and fall into a trap of playing slow, ugly football to try and keep the score close. This is a massive test for Kevvie. I truly believe the win or loss here is irrelevant. I want to see him stick with the gameplan and style of play...

Would never suggest we have two running halves with Turpin. Dearden would need to be the controlling, organising half that the spine around him feeds off. IE. Similar style to Nathan Clearly. He is the best player in the game IMO and he has Luai, Edwards and Koroisau around him. All three of...

With the way the rule changes have transformed the game, running halves are more dominant now than ever. It is no coincidence most of the best clubs have at least one (if not two): Munster/Hughes Williams/Wighton Keary Brown/Moses Luai Cody Walker I don't believe Reynolds will be the answer...
