  • The kid misses 10 tackles a game. He also seems to fall over a lot. I'm not sure he should be dictating to anyone on where he should play. He'd last 3 weeks at Centre at the Dragons before Flanno punts him to reserve grade. 

    • Agreed mate, getting pretty sick of this circus, he'd be silly to think he wouldn't learn more here under gutho for atleast another year vs whatever the fk he'd do with St George 

    • Yeah I think his best position will be fullback in maybe 2-3 years but if he wants to play nrl immediately he'll probably go to dragons and get destroyed in the front line lol 

    • I would not be surprised in the slightest if Talagi is playing 6 if he goes to St. George Illawarra. The plan has always been Kyle Flanagan to 9. There are no quality Hookers on the market and they need one badly, so they will move Kyle to 9 and Blaize to 6. Like they planned with Volkman.

  • Looks like the Isaac Moses PR campaign is in full drive using his connections @Saints and the media.

    Given his recent performances, Blaize is 3 years off before potentially becoming the 'next big thing'.

    See ya Blaize - hope you kill it in reserve grade 

    • This...

    • Spot on Axel; you only need to look at who the grub Moses has as coach under him. The kid has potential; like R Penisini and AMS who both had no season due to injury.

      New coach may change this

  • You guys really have to take anything you read from Fox Sports with a grain of salt. When was the last time someone from there broke an actual story?

    Its a magazine / tabloid setup and their shit is all to get reaction. Half their articles are just jibber rehashed off 360.

    For League I find Chammas pretty reliable , love him or hate him Weidler doesnt report like this...

    Hooper, Read et al . are bottom of the barrel Sydney Confidential style jounos. 

    I promise you they have no idea whats going on with Blaize, what position he wants to play or where we're at with negotiations. Their thought process is linking managers clients to each other and thats about it.

"Fletcher is still very highly rated. But his stress fracture means he's starting this year in SG Ball, whereas Lorenzo could quite easily be starting in NSW Cup. That gives him a jump on first grade. Club wants to keep both and are planning pathways…"

"I think it's simply Lorenzo is suited to be a 6 while Fletcher is more suited to the 7 jersey. Normally a 7 is a better player overall than a 6.
Fletcher could fill in at 6 if needed"

"Though Badger, if you let Parra pick a position they wanted from a trade for Lomax they are taking a middle forward as that seems to be the area they want covered most. That Paulo replacement."
