"I think Sam Tuivaiti can he's starting to mature and if we can get more quality starting minutes out of him then yes.Luca I'm not sure fingers crossed I guess but I think Sam is coming along.He's got a motor on him and definitely gives it a dig…"

"Well we aren't winning the comp so my high tide for this side is the top 8.Would it surprise me if we just missed no it wouldn't.This side has some glaring weaknesses and JR understands this.R and R need to get some wins off the park to get that…"

"That's called a coach who understands the rules and how to exploit them.
Been saying this a lot but winning the initial collision sets up your attack and defense the latter especially if there outlawing the wrestle trying to make the game faster the…"

"That's why the six again rule sucks!!!"

"Rationale

We haven't lost our first 3/7 games like last year.
All our rookies have 1 solid year of experience, and a full preseason in their positions
We still have Mitch
Our bench is now a strength, not a weakness.
We don't have the media scrutiny…"

"With a little lucky we climb higher than last year, I'm guessing 8-9th. We've started much better than last year, so why shouldn't we be giving the 8 a nudge?"

"We are not a top 4 team. PVL ball 2.0 throws so many uncertainties. I can see us finishing anywhere between 5th and last. "

"I advocated for Da Silva to play some minutes in Cup. But at the moment, he needs to stay in NRL and continue to develop with the better and stronger league."

"The only way Ryles would do it is going for 4 forwards. He only using Joash over Da Silva is due to injury in the backs or halves. If Ryles brought Joash in as a 14 and give Smith some time off then yeah not great for Da Silva."

"Regardless, if Smith is coming off and you have Da Silva, you play Da Silva."

"Yea I rate Fletcher. I just think he is a year behind Lorenzo in development which is fair since he is one year younger."

"Sure is and there's no fuel shortage either "

"Earlier prior to season starting and thinking that Lomax was still an Eel and the way they finished last year and the upbeat about Pezet signing I was thinking a definite top 8 maybe top 6 but now that Lomax has gone Pezet not being below average,…"

"I've got serious concerns with our middles. (And with Pezet). Unless we fix those glaring issues I can't see us making the 8. "

"Thanks EA, sounds promising. Do you rate Fletcher highly? Or too early to say?"

"All good points, LB.
With a few astute signings, 2028 could still be a contending year. "
