    • He has starting this year on fire. Converted all the goals last week in trials. Last year in SG ball he was not this good

      • His style seems to rely a bit more on a powerful strike through the ball which might correlate with a development of his own strength as he is growing

  • Amazing. Very very happy. 1 slip up from a guy who has a lot to work on and from Kelma who won't be here much longer. Plus a weak performance from Pryor who I think might get squeezed out also.

    Otherwise we completely dominated them.

    Future looking bright but we still need to find an edge player who is an established high level NRL starter, a 6 and a genuine Winger. 

    I wonder if we could try and get Bostock who is in line for a big upgraded deal in a stacked backline and top 30 in Redcliffe. He is originally from Sydney so might be able to get him if we offer a good money deal. I think he is a 10 year NRL winger who is tough and nails and is no where near his ceiling. 
    The edge is target is Talakai in a swap deal for Lomax. I like Talakais versatility and punch. Sharks are desperate to capitalise on their 'window' and Lomax will be happy to go to a title contender. He will probably also like playing for a STG rival and living in a beautiful part of NSW he is familiar with. They need Outside backs and a goalkicker. 

    For 6, unless Pezet who looks absolutely unreal already figures out a way to stay we definitely need someone to come in and support Moses and slot in for him when needed. Lorenzo, Fletch and Twidle looked good and will feature in our spine and plans well into the future but I don't think they will be ready to play a full season next year. Brooks could be an option. Experienced and balanced Moses nicely. I'm confident now anyone can come in to this system and improve defensively and I don't think he'd blow up if he is coming off the bench by the end of the year if the kids start firing. It isn't a sexy option but it does make sense I think.

    • You were going alright mate until you mentioned Brooks. I hope I can sleep now. 

    • Alternatively we'd try a cheeky swap with Lomax for retention of Pezet. 
      Sign Garner and Bostock. 

       

    • Talakai has made a living toppling over Harper, which is not hard to do. He is not that good. Talakai for Lomax is not a fair swap. If Talakai and another player? Yeah i'd do that.

      Thing with Pezet is he is a conservative Half, like Moses. Does our offense need a running 6? Pezet could work out as a full-time 6 but have yet to see him in that role.

      Bostock won't be released but there are a few good ones at Dolphins. Tevita Naufahu is a talent and wont get a run. 

      You said Pryor, do you mean Saxon Pryke? If so yeah i don't think he makes it. Reminds me of Ky Rodwell, absolute worker and that is it. 

  • Don't like loosing Russell. He was a punching bag now he's travelling to elite

  • Talataina got better as he went. That ball to Latu was silky and well timed. Went into the line and sleight of hand with the pass.

  • What's Jmaine Issako's contract status id take him and his goal kicking I know we've tried to get him before.

  • Decent hit out. Happy with only 6 being let in and Samrani getting a bit agro.
