"You'd think there are ratchet clauses & what not that. Iongi has a great attitude & is talented. Good R&R work. Hopefully, Ryley Smith is extended long-term too. He's been upgraded to an NRL contract this year (goes on our cap)."
"Think he's just really comfortable at the club and has finally broken into the nrl. Seems happy to be an eel so probably an easy call for him. Doesn't seem like he wants to stuff around with contract disputes or anything like that. "
"I think some underestimated the importance of that player survey as mentioned in the other blog. This is where having the right kind of environment comes in handy - once players are here they just want to stay."
"yes I saw it LB but reckon it is media hype as it also said Brad would have plenty of options if he decided to return to the NRL and we all know he hasn't as he tried and would already be in the NRL as a coach if he did."

Lacks Sivo's energy and enthusiasm
Wow this bloke seems to accelerate through the collision
That dude is seriously impressive... there was more speed / oomph / fitness in 1 of any of those runs than Sivo shows in a season. Speed, skill, strength... what a combo... and zero fear or concern taking on a forward pack either.
By comparison... and I'm generalising a bit... we have a bloke with stats that greatly inflate the perception of what he actually does on the field, who 80% of his tries involve a couple of steps and putting a ball down, who farts around every play the ball regardless of what momentum he is killing, who offers absolutely zero punch off our own line, who has a dumb hitting technique that costs us via suspension, who hits the ball up like someone half his size & weight, who is slower to get back on side than some forwards and who looks gassed after running more than about 30m... after which point it looks like he's running in quicksand.
That Hibosi fella would be worth 3x what Sivo-Sivo-Sivo is on... and he would not be unique, there would be more than a few others like him. Sivo would be more useful to us shifting heavy furniture around the leagues club.
How are we going to generate a slow play the ball with that type speed plus he spoils the goal kicker by running it around to the sticks
Doesn't have Sivo's skip or limp in his arsenal sorry...
