  • I'd like to know what Ryles intends to do with him next week. Assuming everyone returns from Origin fit and healthy.

    • Would be interesting considering Penisini out with Cat 1

        • Selfish russell is so bad!

    • Kid is too good to be left out. Gotta find a spot for him.

    • Penisini will miss next week, 11 day stand down. More likely Samrani stays at Centre, leaving a bench spot for Papali'i.

      • We are playing on Sunday and based on last year I think Lomax is definitely backing up so he will go to the wing with Samrani on his inside. I hope Papalii still keeps a bench spot.

    • Penisini is out if a player get knock out and dont return they are out for the following week

    • That try he scored, Penisini in the same situation would have dropped the ball or gets bundled into the sideline. Papalii had that extra speed and vision to step back in and went low for the try line. That's natural footy instinct Penisini doesn't have.

      I'm not concerned with Papalii's defence. Penisini isn't the greatest either. This young kid needs to be in the 17 each week, and if it means taking either Penisini or Russell's spot, I'm OK with that.

       

  • Sure, why not. I liked his enthusiasm and the kid is a goer. He really showed me he is better suited to FG than i thought he would be. Defence could be an issue, size doesn't help. But defence can be coached.

  • That's what I had in mind for him and the reason I was excited to see him make his debut.

"Both are extended til 2027. Fletcher seems to be really impressing in pre-season, similar to what Smith did last year. Not saying he gets near FG but he could play Cup earlier than expected maybe."
