RCG is more crucial than Niukore. RCG provided so much when returning from injury. He led the defensive line and provided great carries. When RCG was injured we struggled to replace him. Whereas we have abundant of backrowers in Carty, Papa, Matto, etc
He'll be 30 at the end of 2022, Niukore will be 25. We can expect continued improvement from Kaufusi & Stone next year and blooding of Hollis & Rodwell, plus a full season from Makhatoa & Gregg.
My first reaction was, "oh hell no", but this might actually work well for us.
Letting him walk is exactly what the Storm would do.
because I'd let 3/4s of our squad go before I let this happen. It doesn't make a lot of sense actually. Old Benny doesn't pay big contracts to boppers, so he's not going to get the huge payday. And he's got more chance of winning a comp with us at this stage.
"I'd suggest Milky and Tago as instant improvements and without a word of a lie it couldn't happen quick enough if we are in competition with others the odds are dropping by the minute.
I'd be shocked if Farnworth or any other elite player is looked…"
"Simonsson was already signed long term before that so Ryles had a plan for him. So makes sense just keeping him.
Issue is why complain about not signing Katoa or Ramien? They are fine and are slightly better than what we have but there are options…"
"Lomax was a top 3 winger in the comp, I was never expecting a 1:1 replacement and I would've accepted Sami, Katoa or Cobbo.
its just the fact that we we ended up taking the easy option in bringing Simonsson back who had a cry and requested a release…"
"Not an intelligent response overall but "like your dementia" was funny and witty.
Now I have figured out that Mr Vlandy/s problem in your eyes is that he is "ugly" .....and I am the excitable child???
I don't squeal (defintely not with glee) unless…"

Massive news, he was one of our best. Good on him though and it will allow us to keep Nuikore

Especially middle forwards
I wonder what sort of money his contract in 2023 was going to be? I wonder if he is chasing more money and hoping the eels will pay more
He'll be chasing one more long term deal.

Daily Telegraph has the article
That explains it
Is this actually a rumour or " your " rumour?
