Latu can cover the halves and 9. He's the perfect 14 rolling forward and keeps pressure on our halves. Plus, his bro is playing well and we don't want to rock that.
Quality competition for spots is very important.
What we don't need is another one in Sullivan. Latu would be my choice.
Reigning premiers Penrith have signed Kiwi international Isaiah Papali’i from wooden-spooners Wests Tigers on a three-year deal from next season.
Just weeks after a failed bid to lure David Fifita to join the Panthers prize-winning pack, Ivan Cleary has struck back with Papali’i to be released...
He just wants top 8 sooner rather than later. Are there any on that list that you disagree with? Clean out worked for the Dogs.
I'd be looking at Naden, Sullivan, Staines & Tumeth (If his PO is a problem)... maybe Toa depending on salary.
Would be surprised if we offload Bateman. We need...
It's the right base. But they could meet a bit closer in the middle and add some incentives to his contract next year based on how many 1st grade games he plays. So maybe he could earn up to $350k.
If he is still adamant about playing in the halves, he needs to move on.
We forget the pre-video ref days where things would get awarded incorrectly. Imagine if Kasey Badger didn't have the bunker for our game!
The bunker just needs more pragmatism. Put some rules in that allow discretion. I'm guessing a lot of these calls are just rule-book alignment. i.e. Contact...
I'm incredibly frustrated this has gone down the path of sexism and it's pulling our club through the mud. From what I can see, none of our players said or did anything sexist. Just some idiot fans.
The team were frustrated with horrible referring. That's it. The NRL has no ability for self...
100%. It really showed our mental resilience. Anger and frustration should be vented in the way we play, not verbal abuse or punches. Run it harder, tackle harder.
The referring wasn't at fault, but when that happens, it adds so much doubt to how the game would have gone otherwise. It's a...
The comments aren't only misogynistic, but just incredibly dumb.
We've been on the end of some dud calls the last few weeks and this week just capped it off. We were the worst team, but with that refereeing, it was an even tougher watch.
These refs escape accountability and ignore fans. It's a...
We just need Sullivan to start performing. Even if it's in cup. The Tigers should be throwing the resources we can at him. He has the capability.
Either way we end up with quality depth or can offload at a decent price.
All those activities sound fine. They either have a "laugh" element (Nudie run, powerpoint) or are individually/team physical (running back to HQ, army drills).
None of those are the same as the ostracisation of Topine.
Robbo said it well. "“You have to push players to be at their best, and...
Such great news! and finally, a relieving sign that HBG may have properly turned a corner. Let's hope it continues as I'm sure Richo has an exit clause if it doesn't.
