"Russell has a few young players breathing down his neck. It really depends on injuries and form of these guys. A great opportunity for a young bloke to cement a first grade spot."

Where is EA when you need him, any good young juniors coming through at Centre other than Richie?
Araz nanva is about the only one, and Cyrus Bloomfield who can play centre and fullback, other then that no one

In another blog, EA stated him/her/them is in India
This is great. A fantastic advertisement for any fringey, we are now a club you can come to and grow within. Ryles is the one! Good on SR for continuing to work hard and now provide for his family by cashing in. All the best to him
Russell has surprised the hell out of me this year and it's been great watching him develop.
If true it will be sad to see him go.
My bet is we don't sign anyone and just promote from within.
Except Brian Kelly.
I can only guess that The bears offered somewhere around 550k, and we didn't want to get into a bidding war for a player who is replaceable. Russell doesn't have good athletic ability for an outside back, and our for and against suffered for it in 2025. Whilst he's a solid player, his passing ability and ability to beat his opposition is limited. As a winger, I always thought his finishing ability was poor.
What Ryles did with Russell he can easily do with R Penasini or Nava
