I'm glad to see Piakura is right for the game, I'm very curious to see where he's game has developed to and see if he's ready for regular NRL time.

Yep he has had one injury after another and really stagnated at the end of last year as a result, let's see what preseason has done. We really need him to finally step up.
 
He got run over under the posts by Side Show Bob from Wynnum .
Looked disinterested for parts of the game . Failed to impress me .
Yeah wasn't too impressed tbh, I doubt when he comes off contract he will be at the club.
 
Bayliss-Brow starting, seems he is working his way of the pecking order, good to see.
I didn’t watch the entire trial last week so I could be wrong here but to me Te Kura had more impact than Logan I reckon. But it appears that both are at the same level(needs to get better at their game with little to no errors).

I've got massive wraps on Te Kura, I reckon if we keep him, he could turn out to be an NAS style fisrt/second-row wrecking ball...but he is still really, really young. I'd like him to get some more time in Cup. Bayliss-Brow really now is at that make or break age, so I am ok with them giving him a shot to see if he has something or not.

I mean, if you look at this random page: https://nothingbutleague.com/player/benjamin-te-kura/

He is only 8 months old.

Te Kura got better as the match went on .
That little offload he threw that led to a try off the knees was very promising .

Baylis in because Flegs got a head knock at training . The lock kid from Saints needs to put on a few pounds he could be useful .
 
Walters:
“It’s horses for courses, there is not much between all three of the hookers. Tyson Smoothy will get some time, he has been impressive in pre-season, so that hooking role is one of the jumpers that is wide open at this stage. We need a little bit of creativity out of dummy half from our nines - this is an opportunity for them to showcase their skills.”​
“I just want Reece to be himself. Reece is very good in attack and likes to be involved as much as he can, but defensively there are some areas where he needs to do some work and it starts for him against the Titans. I was always aware of Reece’s talent, but it’s up to him now to get out there and do it. He has had a full pre-season with us and he has been able to showcase his skills. The key is to get his defensive work and communication right, picking the moment and going after it.”​
“We just have to keep it simple for Reece. It’s a big season ahead for all of us, particularly Reece coming back to the club, so we are taking small steps and we will build his game over the next four to six weeks. If we can keep it nice and simple for him, that’s the best way to get Reece to where he wants to go.”​

It's amazing how under the radar reece Walsh's signing is for us considering the hysteria from the media when he left us before even playing a game lol... if you ever want a sign that broncos bashing sells more than broncos positivity then there it is (latrell Mitchell and wighton vs haas and Albert Kelly is also a good example of how the media manipulates public perception and broncos make a very easy target)

Not sure I can agree. I know, personally, I was hysterical when he left. I saw him as our premiership fullback before he'd ever played NRL. At the time, I thought the press undervalued him.

As for now, I think he's had more press coverage than any other player in the NRL during the off season. Maybe even Payne, and that wasn't his own doing.
 
Mama Haas is as shit at naming her kids as she is at driving
