"I'm not sure we are in a position where we "need" to do anything. That's not a great place to be. If we want to be like those clubs you've mentioned we should start behaving like them, and that's what we are seeing the beginnings of right now. "
"Yes, clubs must spend a minimum 97.5% of the cap. Top 30 settled by 30 June. We have over five months to pick up handy mid-season buys like Walker or TDS last year. We aren't panicking or as desperate as we have been in the past or we would have…"
"He bought the McMansion before he had a secure contract. Dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb.
Financial pressure mounts day by day as he remains unemployed.
Not on the Eels. Not on the Storm.
On him."

"I think by Round 1 I believe? Not 100% sure on the 97.5% question.
As for your idea of having players come to us instead of chasing. Not happening, we are not Roosters or Melbourne or Penrith where you ring their agent and they want to go…"

Don't believe we have the best people in the recruitment space, not sure they could sell a heater in the Antarctic.
Where is the news of Talagi shopping himself around? Hope it's not true.
At his debut jersey presentation his family spoke very highly of the club. Didn't look like he would move on too easily.
The timing of the anouncement is really crap and that's another red mark against our football department. They could have easily made an agreement to wait.
But for Sanders and his own career, this is the right move. Hopefully we stay close in case we want him to come home in the future. I hope he grows into his potential, and here's hoping he kills it over the next few weeks for us.
Yep. The timing was not exquisite, but it always appeared inevitable Sanders was going to leave.
Best case scenario: in 5-7 years when Moses is ready to retire a little after his mid-30s, Sanders will be in his mid-20s starting the prime of his career living up to his potential. And ready to come back home. It's not a given, but it's not impossible. Paolo came back from the Raiders in 2019.
Even the might of the Panthers can't hold onto their depth halves. Falls, Coggar, and Kotoa all left because they had the Luai-Cleary roadblocks.
Cant blame him. He wants to play first grade football.
Shame there was no room for him on the bench.
BA is a joke. Sanders only getting a run because we're forced through injuries yet ba had no hesistation giving JA game time, even contemplated moving brown to centre to accomodate JA in the halves. Sanders clearly the one with more potential as he's played nsw u20s as 7, but because he's behind Moses and brown BA doesn't want him at all. Makes you wonder
