  • It sucks but we all knew it was going to happen. He'd have to be daft to turn down that money.

    The Storm lost Paps and I guarantee no one is expecting them to be easy beats now - they just elevate their next superstar in waiting.

    We lost one player and had a lot of notice that it was happening, our R&R must surely have a Plan B, C, D and E by now.

    • Losing Paps closed their window for sure. They'll still be strong 

  • Some sources linking Taulagi to St. George Illawarra. How in the hell are we not linked to him but are linked to Garrick?

    • Is that kelma?

      • No Murray Tuilagi from the cowboys 

  • Bailey has done his hammy before he gets on the field for pre season. Hope they have made progress on someone else. 

  • You can't blame any player who leaves for the money they are being offerred. Imagine someone comes to you and says I will pay you three times as much for doing similar work. Just about everyone is taking it. 

    Good luck to him and thanks for being a great player for us for 2025. 

    • Good point, even if he plays for one year and gets the reported $3mil AUD, he would have needed to play 5 years before seeing that for Parramatta.

      If he plays 2 years, he is set for life with $6mil. He has no kids, is mid 20's, why not travel and earn a motza.

  • Well Braith Anastia was right. 

    parramatta has known this for some time now, that Lomax was leaving that's why they never released Simonson for. Ryles is smart he would have a plan knowing Lomax was going, otherwise he wouldn't of released him. Matterson will be next to go. We will definitely sign NAS now I reckon, but definitely need another 2 outside backs.

    • Of course he was, he is best mates with Ryles and admits they talk at least once a week. He has the inside knowledge of most of what we are doing and what Ryles is happy to tell him.

      When Matterson goes, we will have 25 spots unless we claim paying a portion of Matto's deal is a part of a top 30 spot. We still need another Hooker at least on a dev deal, i agree two more Wingers maybe one top 30 and another top 30 or dev and i think we get NAS as well.
