"Yeah like no other club would want that either. Why can't another top team or Perth do it? Cause they wont leave. Ivan ain't doing much with this squad in 2027 with that idea."
"Age hits forwards so hard so quickly. World beaters last season suddenly look like plodders. I'm sure Junior can still fire up for the odd game but I can't see him coming good. His contact was several years too long.

"We have to hope that Guymer, Moretti, Brown, Tuivita, Kautoga go up many levels during the season. Hopefully Paulo has a similar season to last year where he gets better as the season goes on"
"The biggest worry right now is that our forward pack is our biggest weakness. But it is not getting any stronger unless we sign someone. Hopgood and Doorey out for the season and no one on the injury list that is coming back. "
"Yep they said they have changed their junior development under JR all the way down from HM. So realistically we won't see if it has actually worked for another couple years "
"That's the point I'm trying to make, we have enough talent but lack the process of both identifying the best and developing them into first graders. It doesn't matter how far and wide we cast a net if we can't identify and develop what we catch."
"Nah we broken "
"Our junior talents right now is not a problem. It's about retaining them and the transference into an NRL player. It's not the scouting that's the issue. Our SG ball team is probably the most talented team in the comp. PT and SB would agree with me…"
"I think most likely we'll lose but we'll be fine. For team like us, battling to sneak into the 8, no one game is make or break till the end. Teams like us are inconsistent, it's part of it.

"Noise will get loud if we finish 11th or lower this year. Parra sells papers, turmoil sells more papers. We are not an overly liked club to the average NRL fan so seeing us in turmoil sells. If we miss the 8 Ryles is under pressure from media.

Anyone else feel like this week against Tigers is make or break?
Does anyone else feel like a win/loss this weekend will dictate our season.Personally, I think a win here would be massive. It would put us as 3-2 with a fairly soft draw. This would be a great result considering the teams we have versed, and would…

An idea
Wondering last night and what people thought, imo walker is most effective off the bench, can we start ryley at 13 and talyn at 9 with walker on the bench, then you bring in walker to lock, ryley to 9 and talyn to the bench for a break?

Up the fucking aussies
Clinical in both semi and final. Starc was complete dogshit. Never seen an Aussie bowler smashed like that in a 20/20 game.
Starc was very unlucky. In his second over he Should of have Williams but hazelwood dropped it for a four. Next couple ball of the over Williamson smashed him. In his third over Williamson edged the first two balls both for fours over short third man. Could of easily gone to the fielder and prevented more smashing that over. Every team rides their luck for example M Marsh hit the balls just short of fielders a couple of times whereas Williamson got dropped and edges a few away. It's the nature of t20. Sometimes it's not ur day.
Yeah true, but an experienced bowler such as himself shouldn't have lost his rag bowling either too full or short. Williamson read him like a monk does the bible. Starc didn't have any plan in his bowling whatsoever. Anyway, he's been out of form for 2-3 years now. I'd rather have Richardson in his place.
Fair criticism. Starc is very reliant on his yorker. Needs to find some more variation in the death. Look at the way Cummins bowled in the last 2 matches with his into the wicket variations. However, remember that in the past 2 ODI world cups Starc was the leading wicket taker. His test cricket may of been poor against India last summer but few players would be even able to come onto a field if their father past away. Hope Starc rediscovers his mojo this summer and destroys England and the barmy army
That's the risk with Mitch. He's not Hazlewood or Cummins, he's an out and out strike bowler. On another day he could've gotten 3 or 4.
Gee they did it in a canter. At least Mitch Starc was there to make a game of it.
Lol imagine how Wallaby fans feel.
