Ryley Smith has opened up about the apprehension of Tallyn Da Silva joining the club, but has said they both lean on each other and it works well. Seems Ryles has definately been clear in communication with both lads over their roles to make them hap
It seems to be boys V men entry week watching Parra play. We simply have been ragdolled every week. We have skill with the ball but are always chasing given we are on the back foot.
Does the Centre of Excellence have a weights room ... we look weak an
Curled up in the foetal position, the noise is getting louder from some of our punters. Drop Pezet. Move him on. He’s been labelled “a mistake” by some, along with the usual tomatoes thrown at R&R, the team, and the front office. But not Talyn Da Sil
This heading is probably something we don't like admitting to. Yes it implies criticism but I don't want to start looking for blame or scapegoats, just accept it and move on.
The main issue in my mind is the "Pezet" experiment. It hasn't worked and t
Should we have a crack at Matt Timoko, they have let him explore options. He is the kiwi center. Has flaws in his game, but under new structure Ryles can improve him
Just eager to see where everyone thinks we will place on the table come season end?As of now, I have us between 6th-10th, just depending on injuries and how much our middle defence improves throughout the year. Another factor is if we unearth some yo
Willie Mason is onto something. The Panthers give away a set restart on the first tackle if they lose the contact. They value getting their line set, and not allowing the opposition any momentum that they're prepared to give away a 6 again on the fir
It might have been Kerry Packer who once said words to the effect: if you can get more than fifty percent right, you’ll be King of the World. Alas, there could be some Nostradamuses among us.
Will we make the finals and keep improving? What are the
Enter Ata Mariota (Canberra), the samoan at 24 can be what we need. Unsigned for 2027 onwards. Lookin at the market good size props lack. Good years in him. If he was in stickys plans, he would have been
Thats how lacklustre the people running recruitment and retention roll. Our best prop, yet he can talk to other clubs in a few months, and were extremely short on go forward props.
When he was only signed until 2027, I honestly couldn't believe it. A
Nrl statement saying Iongi has 5 days to respond to nrl breach notice but they haven't said anything about what punishment is. Even if it's 1 game panthers gonna flog us so can put Joash in 🤣
Only 3 games into his eels career, plenty of ups and downs from Pezet but for the most part he seems a solid young half. His defence needs a lot of work but not sure moving to Brisbane and facing all of that pressure is going to help him. Looks like
Would anyone be able to clarify if Parramatta would be entitled to salary cap exemption for Jmaine hopgood, I am certain if a player is out for the season due to foul play than that club can ask for salary cap relief to cover the loss of a player, ca
"When NSW were winning field position we forced errors and scored but then Cleary started taking over doing more kicks in 2nd half and Qld started dominating the field position and Moses went off. What are the chances he is hurt again.
Cleary once…"
"Sack Laurie. Does not have any counter to QLD's attack. Radley, Staggs, Lucas and maybe Tedesco should be replaced. Api should have been put in. I don't know why Oualokauto was removed. "
"Yeh he's been having a shocker as Blues coach. I don't blame Lozza though, he's a passionate blues man and a great footballer in his day. But what are the people running the show thinking? His last stint as coach wasn't enough? Last year was down to…"
