  • Joash 🤔

  • No body wanted him

  • with JAC on the outter we now need a replacement fullback 

    • That is actually my thinking. Firstly maybe limited interest to a point where Joash wasn't too keen either. Secondly, once Fox got pulled over, I reckon the club stopped Joash being released at all. 

      So strange.

      • Is it possible that FB cover has nothing to do with his return but rather the RLPA stepping in to ensure contractual obligations are met by the club towards a player. I doubt whether he'll play 1st grade next year.

    • A mate just said he's heard the Fox is talking to Tigers 🤔

      • It'd make sense a desperate club with the standards of a Parramatta Road used car salesman would sign him .  

         

  • I think just for 2027, we do need to take a hit on our principles and standards or whatever, whether regarding JAC or Joash.

    Actually if I have to pick I'd rather keep Joash than JAC just because we need fullback cover. If our middle and spine is not functioning having a good winger is not gonna be season-altering.

    I hope Joash stays. If he does, then that means we just need one more back for 2027.

    • You miss the point Yehez (I know you mean well). 

      We do not have to make choices that outlines your hypotheticals, we can have both and not blink. The answer to the fullback position is backup/depth ......either of your choices fits a team balance at a given time.

      The two players you mention are likely not to be here before the season starts....planning has to be inclusive of such choices. Why have we let either of those guys go????? principles and standards is nice rhetoric but meaningless by themselves, the rationale for not keeping them needs to be explained....... 

      You are typical of a big brother mentality that applies across generations of bureacrats across the world trying to please what they think their political masters want.

      Speak up and be brave, there will always be someone there to shoot you down, but at least you have given it a crack and with your own view on what will happen, not trying to anticipate or justify your masters view.

      PS The masters are invariably wrong or another way of looking at it is that in the land of the "blind" he with one eye is KING untill someone with two eyes comes along.

  • Good to see Iongi is still strapped up. FMD
