Re: Eels half Ethan Sanders agrees to terms with Raiders for three year deal from 2025

Look we need to cool our jets a little here. It’s promising that we signed a good young player but that is all it is: promising. People stating that this means we should be challenging by 2026 or whatever is not only being disrespectful to history - I can only think of Manly with DCE, Foran and Bal...

Re: 2024 NRL Round 8: Teams and Game Day

Warriors totally clocked off. That early lead came too easy for them. Titans got some possession and Warriors weren't ready for it.

Re: Corey Harawira Naera’s career remains in limbo

The bottom line is that CHN is going to be entitled to a full pay out of his contract if medically retired. He is well within his rights to try and get back on the field. If CHN is medically retired, the Raiders will be entitled to full salary cap relief from the time of the incident. It is in neit...

Probably agree with the rest of your ratings though, Finchy.
That's fair. We were grand finalists the previous year so final 4 was reasonable to expect.

Re: NFL Thread

Zach Wilson traded to Denver for pick swap. 6th for a 7th. Before anyone asks it is Denver getting the 7th round pick. :) So will jets get a 3rd as a comp pick next yr too? You don't get comp picks for trades or cuts. Only players lost via FA, which is offset by players acquired through FA.

If the article is correct He is signed and we are waiting for the 10 day period to lapse before its official. If that's the case I don't see why we wouldn't push for the immediate release. Parra would probably want something in return . But that’s not how it works. The player has to advise the curr...

Re: 2024 Round 7 v Broncos: Game Day

I think the jury is out on Trey Mooney and whether he is truly as good as people say he is on the GH forum. He looked slow and I didn't see him dominate in tackles. And I don't understand the fuss for Saulo as well - he gets dominated. Conversely, Xavier Willison will be a star for the Broncos. He ...

Even if we do sign him and he gets an immediate release. There is now way we're giving the keys to a teenage half who's never played 1st grade or trained with the team.

Re: 2024 Round 7 v Broncos: Game Day

can't see it being anything other than Weekes. Good depth signing there.... From all reports, Adam Cook is the pick of the halves in NSW Cup. Plus he is an actual 7 - from what I’ve seen, he looks a lot more creative than Fogarty. Is Cook a top 30 player? Might need a dispensation to play him.

Don't think it favours either team. Brings discipline and tactical kicking into play a bit more. Depends on which team handles it better on the night.

The drums have been beating long and loud on this one. Most league journos have talked lime it's been a done deal for 6 months. Will be stunned if it's not officially announced this week.
