Ice Ice Baby.

Parramatta's Isaiah Papali'i is making his time away from home in New Zealand count.

Congrats Ice, 2nd Rower of the year... does beg the question though why coach Arthur would move you to the middle and off the bench in the closing rounds? 🥴

Edge backrow should be your home with a well deserved contract up grade. Better than Lane & Matterson combined. Those two eating up $900K of salary cap a year. I would start with Ice & Niukore everyday of the week.

  • Congrats to papalii but how the fuck did kikau get it as well. He was poor this year. Olaktaua, kilomontangi and A Crichton were easily better than him

    • Congrats Paps! This just means Parra will need to fork out more $$ in his next contract. Need to let go Lane or Matterson 

  • Yea I wish papa moved back to backrow. Idk why Lane is not being shopped around to free room in the cap for Niukore. In Lanes first year with us, he did play like a 400k player but his current performance make him worth only 200k. 

    • If there's a sacrifice we have to make then that's who it should be EA but believe his contract is not up. 

      Lane was just starting to fire up in middle with RCG out, he was going alright  - don't know why he wasn't kept there off bench   - maybe it's about not enough impact like Ice brings - either way it's ridiculous to use one of our best for such limited minutes like we did in our last do or die.

       

      always hated the fact we wasted Nuikore in the middle for so long years even  - when he is much better value to us on edge... bet he does too. Wouldn't be surprised if another club picks him up as a guaranteed starter out there as a result 🤨

       

  • My favourite player.

    We should play the Big Poppa chorus at our home games:

  • How the hell did Kikau get a gong ,Ice was regularly so much better, corruption is everywhere

    • How the hell did RCG miss out in nomination!? Must have rubbed someone up the wrong way somewhere. He was unlucky not to get call up for SOO one thing but not to be named as one of the best props in the game this year is a complete what the!?

      • Agree Mace.

      • agree 100%

        • His agent is trying to raise his market price
