    Kaeo Weekes

    Don "t think that there was any doubt about Weekes "s individual footy ability , just his capacity to assert himself to best effect and sometimes more comfortable under the high ball . Sometimes also a player of his type just needs the opportunity to gradually gain confidence and fit in and...

    Post-Game Discussion Panthers V Manly [Round 8, 2025]

    Subbing at 9 scenario for Jazz from being included on the bench and then to be able to cover middle positions as well

    Post-Game Discussion Panthers V Manly [Round 8, 2025]

    Real puzzle without doubt for some forward positions and starting positions and just imagine if Paseka was also available at the present time . Jake or Jazz at starting 13 could be the real dilemma and as much one can only have great respect for Froggy "s commendable resilience in recent...

    Post-Game Discussion Panthers V Manly [Round 8, 2025]

    Presume that Saab will be available for the Sharks match and included , hard to leave out T T 2 but would expect a bench spot . Would have to say Simpkin :s best game to date and warranting another start , . On that basis , couldn "t really anticipate Froggy or Gordy in the game day 17...

    Joey Walsh

    Not too sure what the situation is going to be if Walsh can really hit his straps and show he is N R L ready into next season Still obviously have Brooks until 27 and into Fogarty 's 2 nd year . Walsh a free agent at the end of next season . Nothing has really changed it being a catch 22...

    Joey Walsh

    Think there was more conjecture in the half 's selections in that night game against Souths in picking Karl Lawton initially as the 7 and not so much Talau as the 6 Then not including Humphrys even on the bench if things did not work out . Could see the reasoning in having Talau in a 6 role...

    Jamal Fogarty

    Definitely recall Des filling in on the wing at the latter stages of one S O O game and could well have been on his debut game

    Jamal Fogarty

    Helpful all round considering recent circumstances , that it is now settled ,even allowing for a bit of caution on the 3 year component Hardly think however that the signing and the final contract amount is going to assist that much in picking up good level or a couple of good level forwards ...

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    Recall reading a pre match team rating just before the 2013 G F that had the Roosters just very marginally ahead and that seemed to be based on Soony Bill's ability to sometimes be able to change the course of a game . Even doubtful if he should have been eligible to return to the N R L that...

    Siosiua Taukeiaho

    T K O has the playing style that seems to suit or assisting the Manly mid field play Can not underestimate his late off load ability as well which may be able to be utilized at various stages as the season progresses .Holding his own defensively . Next season is another matter but working...

    Jamal Fogarty

    Looks like the equation is coming or could be coming down to Fogarty on 750 K for 3 years , not an unrealistic possibility now that D C E could stay on for a year or 2 on similar money[ or slightly more ] or taking a punt on Walsh ; Which would definitely be the least likely outcome . Just...

    Pre-Game Manly V Sharks [Round 10, 2025]

    Not too sure whether there is an unofficial agreement between him and Manly to stay on already or if he continues to just not make a call on his future for whatever reason . Would have to be some outside interest if he has not made some type of an ongoing unofficial commitment to Manly but...

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    Options for D C E would seem to be on the very limited side right now . Not even sure if the Roosters would even be definitely interested at this stage with that young or emerging half making an apparent good impression recently , Sandon Smith going apparently well again and Sam Walker on...

    Pre-Game Manly V Sharks [Round 10, 2025]

    Would have to be a serious discussion point for the Sharks game with Jass versus Jake at 13 , Bully starting at prop and Simpkin starting and big minutes at 9 Be more inclined to think that Simpkin to 9 a or should be a given , deceptive runner and does not shirk the defensive...

    Is Mestrov looking to get out?

    Personally i would not care if he did back flip and was prepared to stay on 750 K for one year and even taking into account the past few week 's shenanigans . if last night 's turnaround in form and attitude is any guide and strictly in the professional sense . In addition to the hardly clear...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Great win and commitment all round , every player really put in and lifted , Defence held up when it mattered and played to their strengths again in attacking plays .Turbo does make a major difference but again pretty good team effort all round where the stakes were naturally pretty high in...

    Game Day: Panthers V Manly [Round 8, 2025]

    Will be interesting for the middle rotation . Waddell should go all right , Maybe Brown will go to 13 and Jass to prop for a while . No quite as much impact when Bully has been coming into a game but it is what it is Bully should have already been given more minutes previously and on...

    The Actual 18th Team: Perth Bears

    From what i can gather , the franchise is going to be jointly owned , at least initially by the N R L and W A government . Then the franchise being up for sale after a couple or few years . Just can not see the logic or practicality on so much emphasis on the Bear ;s connection or input . W A...
