This could easily be Galvin. That's how far "rookie" can stretch.

I doubt it’s accurate though there is some rumour going about that Isaiya Katoa is not happy at the Dolphins, if it were to be true he would be a good pickup for another club.

I mean look at how they use the term "star"

 

[Ohgeez]

I thought of Laiafi when I was reading this, hopefully his promotion into the Flegg squad has him content.

SHOOSH

Which highly promising NRL rookie is having difficulties at his club and could be on the move? This is potentially a big story we are monitoring closely.

I’m guessing this was about Will Pryce

Is Matt's Cup, top 4, 6 or 8?
Last round this weekend and we could finish 4th. Running 5th and against Eels tomorrow who are 2pts behind us.

I think they’ve played top 6 the last few years with a three week finals series. In the first week 1 & 2 get a week off and 3 plays 6 and 4 plays 5. The winners play 1 and 2 and then the winners of those games play the GF.

Top 8 this year. If we can beat Parra (8th) and Warriors (2nd) beat Roosters (4th) we will finish 3rd. Then Its 1 v 4, 2 v 3 with second chance. 5 v 8 and 6 v 7 elimination, same as NRL

Flegg toweled up yesterday by Penrith
Sydney Shield got up
Matts Semis final tomorrow against Souths

 

[rmd]

Once again Matt let Souths jum out to a lead at half time (18-4) and then came back in the second half. Three tries all and just goal kicking that beat them. Final score 18-14.

No Walsh again in Flegg. Must be injured and suffering a setback.

Laiafi starting again. I recall he was preferred on the bench last year, so must've been a good improvement in his fitness levels.

 

[Leighbra]

Be good to see all the NSW Cup players who are eligible for Flegg drop back, will be interesting to see what they can do with a full strength side.

Former Flegg player Carsen Patu has been invited to attend the Philly Eagles rookie minicamp this year in the NFL.
Gets a chance to impress and potentially get an exemption spot as a foreign player on their practise squad.
Big opportunity,but a big ask......

Is there an Eagles affiliation between the clubs?
Should be. We could use some of their mobile big boppers.

Seems we are not prepared to risk our future immortal by having him actually play a game. I suspect the plan is to debut him in the 2028 Grand Final (against the sand bear gropers).
