I thought we were very lucky to offload him and Gutho to be honest. Didn't know how the youngsters would turn out, but Ryles has been absolutely spot on so far. Cartwright, Offengaue and Matterson have also been the right call.
Ryles has learnt a lot on roster management from two of the best, Roosters and Storm. He hasn't got much wrong and he's improved the ones he has stuck with. The development of the team this year has been amazing, and looking forward to next year after another off season and the year of experience for the new bloods.
Good luck to RCG when he was here we got the most out of him and he represented blue n gold well.Hope there's one more overseas stint in him.Go get that career severance money.
No hard feelings towards RCG. Ryles simply didn't want him past 2025, he got an offer past 2025 and he took it. Now he is going to SL where he admitted in the past he was open to always going to and travel.
"fairplay. He does deserve a good send off, he got his payday, I hope its what he wants and with the immense pressure and spotlight on him now.....hope it doesnt end in tears and a cautionary tale, like many before .....time will tell"
"100% agree HOE. Riley is tireless and he seems to energise the whole team with his efforts week in week out. Fisher- Harris and other Wahs forwards tried to run him over several times but he stood his ground."

Another good call by Ryles.
This good decisions are adding up.
I got to admit.

If RCGZ is moving for salary cap reasons, who else could be available- Beau Fermour?
He wants out but apparently we are not interested.
Good call by Ryles.
Shhhhhh don't say it too loud to those early in the year who said it was disastrous letting our by default player of the year go.
