Bit of a Michael Hodgson sort of Saturday, you reckon ?

Just the getting belted a couple of times sandwiched between 1 and 2 point wins.

2006 vibes, strong they are.

Seeing Furner might be tabbed to take over as the interim If so it's a good chance for him to work with the likes of Jacky, Cody, Cooky, Koloamatangy and Latrelly The question is which one of them he'll be on the verge of having a scrap with by season end. Seems to happen everywhere he goes, and pl...

Does anyone know much about Mitch Henderson? Is he earmarked to be a hooker? There MUST be some plan in place. There is no **** way we have gone into 2024 with Levi being the plan. After the disaster on Sunday, I hope we never see him in green again. I know Stuart took a similar stance after Semi’s...

Roger Kenworthy

I think he might be outside stacking on.

Roger Kenworthy

GE I think I hear Paul Kent outside looking for someone to stack on a blue with. Can we enter lockdown protocol?

Roger Kenworthy

Who would you give them then? They won't be chasing our contractual liabilities like Levi and Hoppa. I don't see why they'd have a short term need for Cotric, but even if they did they'd have to squeeze his half-year salary in. Having a competent back up half is way more valuable than any of those p...

Roger Kenworthy

we should try and get him early. Get him into our system. Give him a few games in the top grade. Parra can have Hoppa, Cotric or Levi or all 3 to make it happen If we came asking for an early release and I was Parra I'd say give us Mariota or Savage and we can talk. We'd rightfully baulk at that an...

Hudson Young's lucky we've got the problems we do in the edge position, otherwise he should be facing a stint in reggies He's been very disappointing from the games ive seen We need MUCH better from him All evidence is that he doesn't have much better to give. His "bad streak of form" has...

Strange half. Let's get Levi back out there for a surprise drop the ball with the line wide open play. Seriously, he caught it..then dropped it..untouched..with the try line right in front of him. In my 30Yrs of bog average, D grade level Rugbrugh Leeg..IVE NEVER DONE THAT.. How are you at hooker? ...

They just thought not playing Fogarty in preseason would guarantee his fitness for the year.

Levi caught it and still managed to drop it without contact

It’s his best and most natural position

Hopefully he has a right foot step like his left foot

Roger Kenworthy

Sanders looked really promising in this one. While he was very much the secondary half he never looked rushed or rattled which is a real rarity for a half in their first handful of matches. Seems to have good distance on his boot. When his combination with Strange does get a run it'll be interesting...

Roger Kenworthy

In 2026, Strange, Sanders and Chevy will still only be 21 years old. I’d like to think we’d be up towards the top of the table but they’ll still be very young for spine players and I think having the premiership cut-off date that soon is unreasonable. Strange could have 40-50 games under his belt b...

Roger Kenworthy

A great signing for the future. Certainly buys another five years for the coach. And it shows in his laidback approach this year. The last two seasons he has looked like a coach under pressure. Particularly 2022 where he looked a dead man walking until Savage and Woolford came into the side and sav...

Up until now, what we need is a defensive winger and I think cotric played pretty good in cup.
Straight swap there for me

Can't say I watched the game on the weekend and came away thinking we're missing Cotric.

Roger Kenworthy

I think Starling has more versatility to his game than Woolford. At least the coaches appear to think that way. Starling can fill in at middle, can sub in the halves in a pinch, and is quick from dummy half. Shame is, he's not particularly good at any of them. I think this role should go to Puru. A...

Roger Kenworthy

Agree with both your posts Bluesbrother and Rickmando. Any experience he can gain this year will be a benefit but there is that aspect to manage with spine players. Not all gametime is of equal value if you aren't seeing some nuance being added.

Roger Kenworthy

Btw anyone criticising Chevy is a goose. All fullbacks have games like that in their careers. It’s a position where there is nowhere to hide. Chev showed great character to keep putting his hand up. He’s going to be a great player, and games like last night actually accelerate his development far m...

Roger Kenworthy

Some of the Chevy comments have been a bit ordinary. Teenager in game two ****. They're aren't many critical comments really, nobody put the line through him. He made errors and they were pointed out Agree. It's NRL football, fans have to be able to critique performance whether the player is 18 or ...

Roger Kenworthy

Chevy Stewart courageous. Courageous yes, but he just hasn't added anything in these couple of games. An NRL fullback doesn't get by on courage like Gary Jack in the 80s did. He’s an 18 year old for god’s sake. I said that he shouldn’t play first grade for another year because playing games like th...

For a team that's supposedly leaned into its attack this year, we have shown absolutely nothing with the ball I thought it was pretty clear last weekend that the Eels attack was an abberation. We were pretty much running through tackles all night there, which just doesn't happen at NRL level. There...

Roger Kenworthy

Would love to see Savage given a run at FB in the second half. He seems really keen to be involved.

Hmm concerns about Stewart's build watching this. Can't think of too many fullbacks his size that have been elite without top tier speed.

Roger Kenworthy

Kris hasn't been getting good ball outside Strange. Strange's running game has been one of the highlights of our season and he still had the surprise factor. I'm guessing as teams begin to target the metres that Strange makes those opportunities will start presenting themselves to Kris. I've definit...

Fair enough if you have the inside word.

Roger Kenworthy

Weird we've let him go while being in negotiations with Crotic. Weird is an understatement.

That was a few months ago now. I'd be surprised if they were still hung up on Woolford.

Roger Kenworthy

Presenting a hooker who is sitting behind Starling as a value proposition is a tough sell.
