    • The club actually had higher standards when Steve Sharp was chairman , granted he screwed the club by cheating the cap but at least he knew what was required to compete with the top club's , he just went about it the wrong way . 

       

      The current lot don't actually know what is required to compete with the elite , you can't fail for this long in recruitment and not make changes but Parramatta are a club with the  lowest of standards so we can't expect much . 

       

       

      • Can Parra keep this course and continue building to something better? The jury is still out. But at least this time around with Ryles we can see a slow change in direction. Signing promising young talent instead of old or lazy players. I reckon we're still missing a good centre and a forward or two.

        Also standards weren't really any better before.. You can count the number of star recruits we've had with one hand. There is a reason why apart from the 09 run, from 2008-2018 we only made the top 8 one other time..

  • I'd be resigning longi next until the end of 2030

    i wouldn't muck around with him, he's the one they need wrap up long term.

    Papali is a good back up for a fullback or in the halves.

    • Agreed Iongi is a must.

  • Good back up but we need centre and forwards 

  • Nice One

  • Good news

  • It's great he extended. He's young and talented. Definitely worth an investment. We have to build from within. We literally don't have a choice. We're not signing Haas or Munster anytime soon. 
    However another player off contract in 2027? Why are we lining up players to come off contract together?  

    • Haven't you heard Mutters - 2027 is the next rebuild year

      • Haha why not?

        Nothing quite like a knock down rebuild.

"The chances of him being our 6 next year are very low, if he was a serious consideration he would be playing 6 now with dylan at centre. I'll be very surprised if he is our starting 6 next season unless he gets a lot more time there this season. "

"I think Joash is a good player, but from what I've seen only at fullback or on the wing. Those positions we've got pretty well covered, so I guess he's a great back up option. I'd like to see him in 1st grade, but I dont know how he fits in?"
