    Jamie Humphreys

    Plenty of lower grade superstars don’t get to excel at NRL level. Sure he’s a good player on his day at Blacktown, but no runs on the board at nrl level, so not sure why all the love for him. Arthur has the toughness and enough skill to play footy, there is more upside to him as a solid half...

    Jamie Humphreys

    Humphreys was an ordinary 9 and below average half at Blacktown. He may well make a fist of first grade in a few years, but wouldn’t hold my breath. Good park footballer… bunnies need a budget reserve grader to cover ilias… bye bye!

    Players at or above value proposition

    Some perspective.. We are all disappointed at the loss, however I believe we have had a good roster turnover and a better overall squad than recent seasons. Recall not too long ago, we couldn’t beat a top four side, well on our day we can in fact compete at that level. Mind you, don’t think in...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Galvin will be a ball playing 13 in the Yeo mould… just might take him a few years. You could throw Trbo at 12.. not a bad 11-12-13

    Little Gordie

    40+ games before we see his true worth… if we persist? Hope they do, we are a development club, not a purchasing superstars club like the sombrero or donkeys

    $600m for PNG to join NRL

    Seriously guys… nrl in png is a bold idea and the locals will go crazy! it just needs great execution moving forward.. *for the nay sayers -$ 4.77 billion foreign aid 2023-24 represents .67% of total fed budget… just take a chill pill.

    Tommy Talau

    Good recruitment from mestrov and team… competing v top tier teams is where we are at in 2024. Get consistency in the systems in 2024 and we should build nicely. *Some quality footballlers from tigers.. lol (let the comments start flying)

    The Clean Out 2024 Post

    Wet weather rugby trick from years ago, using leather balls. The scrum half from the back of ruck pushes down on ball to secure it, before picking it up… try it, it actually works. Taught a long time ago by an ex wallaby. FYI it’s a crappy play for a nrl hooker and it pisses me off too with...

    The Anthony Seibold Grievances MEGA THREAD

    A little perspective… had we held the line for the last 5-10mins of half, may we’ll have been a different result? Clearly see how much we missed ‘groggy froggy’ and our origin backrow candidate. Won’t miss Tom like everyone thinks… on current form, the injury will be a good chance for Tommy to...

    Tom is a Myth

    Anybody recall - Hip drop on ankle same leg as hammy? Tommy can’t run out a niggle... tissue paper isn’t that strong. Trbo attempt to stop the try, before tearing the hammy was terrible, wonder if it was already torn at that point stretching out to get to the corner? I can’t remember snake...

    Tom is a Myth

    Is it time for koula to the back and Tom to have a run at Blacktown? tommy v dragons dropped balls Tom v titans wasn’t imterested trbo v raiders cost us with poor positional play.. kidding but Tom certainly is way way out of form..

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    Shoey should head off to Perpignan in the south of France to play some relaxed footy... Eat as many croissants, blocks of Brie cheese and wine as he wants and just be happy. Once he fills his boots for couple years, he can decide what he wants… he’s a young kid, got time to see where his life...

    Pre-Game Warriors V Manly [Round 6, 2024]

    Finally have strong leadership at the eagles.. CEO to be applauded for the contract details and getting it across the line with the manager. Coach is to be acknowledged for having the conversation with Schuster at start of year, that shoey doesn’t play nrl until he gets his sh t together…...

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    I’d like to think Aaron Woods is working with shoey, to move him along the journey to a NRL first grader. Why the rush guys… (apart from his monster paycheck) give him a couple months to get his mojo and end of year, let’s see where he is at. At this stage he has already burnt almost half his...

    POLL Brooks Vs Shoe

    Don’t know for sure, but can guess why? Shoey can’t avoid contact in the middle, plus get the miles in his legs … seems like a conditioning/ contact programme at Blacktown. Besides, everybody prefers game play to training drills.. this is better for his conditioning cycle in April-May.

    Does Burbo cement a Top 17 spot in 2023 ?

    Any support for Waddell to the edge and Brbo to bench. At least first 25mins ? I wasn’t keen on Waddell returning, but he looked a class above Brbo on weekend..

    Jamie Humphreys

    I’ve seen humprehys for a while in the lower grades, and not sold on his half performances against his peers. Think the trial showed Humphrey is a below average half but instead a 9 with some potential. It looks like he is far ahead of Gordy already… I think he is close to playing a support role...
