        Bullshit EA, this site has never relentlessly over-crucified our 5/8th for absolutely miniscule mistakes.
        
        As long as Lorenzo 'stands up' and wins us this game singlehandidly, he has nothing to worry about.

        Why such low expectations. If he does not lead us to the GF this year I dont want to see his face in an eels jersey next year.

        Pretty generous to give him the full year. He should win us the GF by August at the latest. It can't be that hard to redefine the NRL round structure, shorten the season, win all our remaining games by +30 margin per game, and then tear apart the Panthers for a well deserved GF all before we break into the peak of Spring.
        
        That's where my bar is set and I'm not budging.

        Haha... You're both right, I've gotten too soft.

        EA we could sign Nathan Cleary, he has 3 tries, 3 TA's, 9/9 goals and one person will say "see that knock on? That's what $1.4 mil gets you"
        
        If Renzo plays Sunday it's an audition, if he plays well, Ryles won't hesitate he will play him over Pezet as future is now.

    I think so Ron. Seems strange putting Volkman in who hasn’t set the world on fire in reserve grade, whilst Lorenzo is seen by the club as a future first grader, otherwise why sign him until 2028?
    
    It has to be Lorenzo to show if he can do the job for 2027. Putting Volkman in is wasting valuable time

      And it isn't like Volkman is an experienced head either. He's only played 7 NRL games.

Can araz catch a high ball?

  More so Nanva's chance. Centre spot open next year.

    Oh we not thinking of signing a centre? Hahahahahahaha wow
