              • Lol Thank happy to be corrected,many a time.

    • In the hunt? If we add Thompson and a hooker we should be trying to finish top 4

      • Anything can happen, BUT I'm assuming it will take time with new defensive patterns, attacking shapes etc - I'm expecting a high tempo style of play at this it's a guess 

        • I hear you Mick, but if you take a line through Storm and Roosters, they are both very methodical when on their game and I cannot imagine Ryles being too up tempo with his focus firstly being on defence.

          Where i suspect you will see a an up tempo style, is the way we finish the opposition off. We definately have the capacity to put some big scores up. But initially I think you will see a huge focus on keeping there own line safe before opening up against anyone.

          • one thing to admire about the panthers is they keep the opposition pinned down in their own territory for long periods, just like in the GF the storm couldn't get near the panthers redzone for at least 30 minutes.

        • Yeah that's fair enough. It'll be interesting to see how much changes tactically

  • Throw the cheque book at him, he's exactly what we need.

  • Matt Arthur will tell him how good the eels are

     

    this excellent if this comes off. Very mobile

  • Really hope we get this one! I've been hoping on this one for awhile!  Exactly what we are missing now. 
    Id go as far to say as he'd be crucial to our chances next year. 🤞🤞🤞

    • Agree Macy, getting Leo signed up for next season would great - maybe a swap deal?
