Tom Jenkins has turned his back on plenty of interest from other clubs and extended with the Penrith Panthers for another 3 years!
but but but I thought he was a sure thing to sign at Parra?

"He would have been injured"
"Yeah to get a last pay day like the rest going to PNG. Get 2 years tax free and get out of there."
"If they were starting they would. Someone like Jenkins who left once and failed probably had that in mind."

It's how we build the roster up, otherwise it's the same old in 2027, 2028 we need to change.
Is Jesse even good? He seems like an average winger to me.
Well he averages around 150m per game, decent under high ball and can score tries. But also he has been used very sparingly, there is a reason for that.
He is a Maika Sivo type signing from Penrith where you get him for opportunity but high chance he's not good due to what Penrith saw of him. Sivo at least worked out somewhat.
Jesse is 21. We signed Sivo at 24 or 25. So I think we have lots of upside with Jesse.
Sivo had upside coming to us too. There is a reason why Jesse is not getting picked. Even during Origin they go elsewhere. I think it would be an alright signing but there is a reason he is stuck in Cup. Age regardless.
I remember watching him play 1st grade a while back and he reminded me of a slightly better version of Jake Tago. He is a different build to his brother Casey, much shorter and doesn't seem to be as athletic. Sua F' temu version.
Great work Parra. Get rid of Jim and MON. Couldn't offers a decent contract to a guy across a town.
I keep saying it, add Rogers. As it wouldn't surprise if they did sack MON if Rogers gets it.
All the R&R Team should go.
Well now the JR has come out and basically said our recruitment needs to improve and we have now missd out on Jenkins, I dare said the spotlight/blowtorch/toilet brush will now be applied to the R&R department
