    Positive suggestions for the club going forward

    Won't Mestrov be holding the Football Club AGM at some point towards the back end of the year? I need to become a member at some point, but if anyone is planning on attending this AGM, raising a few of these constructive suggestions to Mestrov, may bring about some change. Keep the requests...

    In case any of you are interested, these guys, The RL Eye Test, and the Maroon Observer (unfortunately of the Queensland variety), do some incredible data analysis for the NRL. They've teamed up to predict the Dally M medal winner based upon their data analysis methods. It's a good read...

    DCE Memories

    I think there was also a brilliant one that year against the Broncos as well, bounced off the ground after travelling a bloody long distance. That was an incredible year to watch. Even if we didn't get the premiership, everything went our way. Nearly every 1% opportunity paid off. Turbo and DCE...

    DCE Memories

    It's so disappointing that it ended this way... Quite a bit of sadness but also anger, especially when you remember it all. I'm on the younger side (probably a massive outlier compared to the lot of you) so I remember a bit of Orford, but for nearly as long as I can truly remember, DCE has been...

    Jake Simpkin signed until 2026

    Ignore the rose tinted glasses, from the collective imprisonment of having Croker as our only hooker for the past four years... What does Simpkin bring to the table? He runs occasionally, and often these runs are pretty good. Is he deceptive? No. Does he dominate tackles? No. Does he offer...

    Tommy Talau

    Missed tackles on their own are not indicative of anything. I noted two of the occasions where Brooks missed a tackle, as I knew it would be brought up here post-game. This "missed" tackle, would be an ankle grab, or a lifting motion, that stops that defender in their tracks. Because Brooks or...

    Caleb Navale

    There's no point in persisting with Jazz next week... I'd give him the starting 13, and see what he can do. He is no game breaker, but this is a good thing IMO. These players shouldn't cost a lot, but offer consistent performances, like the ones Navale has been putting out. This leaves some...

    Kelma Tuilagi

    iirc the Kelma vs Waddell argument is quite fruitless, because Scott Fulton decided that Kelma was worth ~$600k... Undoubtedly Waddell is on quite a bit less. That said, I would say Waddell is a better defender, purely because he puts in marginally more effort. Though this is like prefering to...

    Kelma Tuilagi

    I cannot believe it's gotten to the point where Seibold is the reason this guy was crap, and that he's actually good because Moses gave him a good ball. That's outrageous lol. Like, are you kidding? Look at all the comments on here from 2023. He's been absolutely rubbish defensively for a long...

    How many wins to make the 8?

    We are gone... Blah blah for and against, nah we're out of it. Hopefully this results in some changes. WTF is the point of playing Sipley. What exactly does he do for us?

    Sack Seibold Immediately

    I don't think it's any assurance that Seibold isn't sacked before the end of the year. I don't think it was ever going to happen prior to Round 27 because $$$. From a neutral perspective, it would be incredibly fruitless, especially that we're still in finals contention. What if Penn went out...

    Sack Seibold Immediately

    Also has the most touches per game of any player in the game. iirc, this has been consistent for many years now. He's by far, the most influential part of this team. He has three or four touches every single set. Whatever occurs, it'll be the biggest change to our structure since Foran left...

    Sack Seibold Immediately

    Great attacking coach, but I have serious questions about his credentials when it comes to defence. He could make it work in the ESL, but at no point did the Titans under him, look like a serious defence team.

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Never heard a less deserved champ insult in my life. He had you for all money.

    First coach sacked.

    AOB is a buffoon. Plain and simple. If the old boys are bringing out the pikes for Seibold, you can rest assured knowing that they'd burn down the Penn Centre of "Excellence" before AOB came anywhere near the joint. Penn needs someone to smooth talk him anyway. AOB is probably starting a punch...

    Pre-Game Dragons V Manly[Round 26, 2025]

    Same team as last week. On paper, we should be better in nearly every position. Of course, this means we're going to lose.

    Will Croker be back?

    I'm really hoping Hugo Hart develops well, so we get another NRL-standard option. In particular, I hope Simione Laiafi, Kylan Mafoa, and Hart have good off-seasons. If Seibold moves away from the head coaching role, Ballin may be more inclined to select them.

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Off the top of my head, what I can confirm as having been published: Koula and Garrick on <$600k currently Paseka on $600k Saab on ~$250k The rest sound about right though. probably a bit higher for some of the lower level guys. Doesnt change much anyway, but the point is, we need ~4-5 players...

    The Cheese ... allegedly charged

    It sounds like the insider trading bet was on us to win against the Rabbitohs, which is mind-boggling, because probably half of us thought we would lose that hahaha.
