  • Fully strength.  Maybe ray stone to replace Nikure R1

    • Doubt that. Niukore was one of our best middles last year.

      • He's suspended for round 1 Super. I think that is what Chiefy is getting at.

        • You'd have Darcy lussucik sarting at 14 come round 1 then rond two with Niukore available its ducks for courses.

          • wrong lussick chucky

            • lol

          • Uhmmmm, Darcy left us years ago.  It is one of his younger brothers.

      • Suspended Round 1. Has 1 left game left from a suspension last year. 

      • Yep, he is suspended but will be straight back in the 17 Round 2.

"Which record is better in the Jason Ryles era? Their start to 2025, or their start to 2026? Relatively speaking, as each is a losing record with 2x 50+ thrashings.

"Talagi has been great in the Penrith system, but to be 100% honest I doubt we would have developed him as well if he stayed.
Our team defense is already shocking and Talagi would've been an easy target for the opposition."

"He plays 5/8 or half for me when he is back; he only played a few games and yes did not start good but his game against Brisbane was good. He will get better; as for the discussion around his contract does not matter now; he is ours for the season."
