"Daz and Coryn. It's a lovely theory, gentlemen. Sure, sprint coaching helps. But turning Pezet or Paulo into Usain Bolt? The eggs might starts flying faster."
"Not necessarily Coryn. Contracts mean nothing. If we decide to keep Smith as the future 9, Da Silva then makes the choice to either see out his deal or ask for a release. Done, sorted.
Now, is Da Silva seen as the future? I would say his deal til…"

"I think there is a place for a 14 in the mold of a Wishart or a Tevaga even who can play Hooker but also other positions. Instead of strictly a hooker on the bench.

"Ultimately the clubs made its bed at hooker they've committed significant funds & years towards TDS so he's the guy going foward.The fact they are in no rush to resign Smith is like our situation at 6 Smith is the guy right now till he isn't.I…"
"If you watch him in lower grades for Penrith he was playing on an edge. He has shown to have some sort of running game. "
"Don't forget Ryley was upgraded to only a development contract it's not like he cost us much at all. We ought not take him for granted.
pretty clearly he is a player we ought not to let go to any longer... he clearly gives us his best and his best…"

"No chance if he hasn't got a running game.
Pass selection is also an attribute I haven't seen enough of it to suggest he'd be a 13.
I think he's a hooker throughand through."

"Saying it is disgusting is wrong words Macy, sorry feel that is a little over the top. Smith extended til 2027, i think that is fair. Also, who is to say he wanted a long term deal? Maybe he was happy with a deal til 2027 then have a look what's…"
"Good points, LB & Super.
When the time comes that we have to bite that bullet, hopefully one of them has proven themselves to be the elite choice - a good position to be in.
Currently, really like the way Ryles is using them both.

"I think most, if not all Hookers want to be 80min or the main man. Da Silva at least would want to be starting at least. If Smith is, then he might look at PNG for example.
We can keep both, Da Silva is contracted til 2029, so if he wants to kick…"

"Is the current NRL ruck simply too fast for an 80 minute hooker? If you say "yes" then it's obvious a Smith/TDS combo is a good idea: a high work rate machine followed by a creative.
If you say "no" you're probably going to point to a player like…"

"Being an 80 minute hooker is what delivers the big pay packet and the rep jerseys. Long term I imagine we lose one of TDS or Smith, especially if Coinakis continues developing. That's just the reality. The Sharks had the Brailey brothers , Melbourne…"
"Nailed it! can't see why we'd let Ryley go so long without securing him when it's clear how great they can be for us as a pair.
id absolutely hate for us to he looking for someone like Ryley A gain!"

"Pezet. Easy for Eels fans to dislike as he leaving for Broncos. If he was playing out of his skin the conversation would probably swing to critique of the club for not locking him up.

Gus: Eels Showed "Real Grit"
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…

Apparently just informimg public and not using camera for prosecution - at this stage. But with career beaurocrats running the show world wide -who think that the end justifies the means and that they have moral superiority to determine the ideal ends..this is getting 1984-like and we did not win the GF 1984 - although we got close
maybe spot should ref a nrl game
Great idea Wile, are they mass-produced so we can get one on every corner of a street.
LOL - read a ScFi book with these Law enforcement dogs being used - only difference was they were equipped with automatic guns.
Kick it on its side and see how good it is.
