Not a coincidence we've not seen another contract like it offered to any other player....from any other club...

Quite - well if the highest bidder is West Tiger, or the Bulldogs or Saints, then thats NOT a football project that requires you as the final piece. Thats purely for money. Well, maybe Brisbane dont want a player motivated purely by the cash here anymore? There are a few very good young...

30 years ago or so, a decision to lock down the best young prop in the game on big money delivered 2 premierships. Here we are again. Lazzo was a generational talent, so is Haas. You have to try and keep guys like this. Brisbane have shown you can build a forward pack with Marty and Jenson...

....the issue was, yes there "was" evidence of wrongdoing, but the arbitration commision didnt allow it as it occured outside the statue of limitations. UEFA has time limits on offences, the EPL does not, and thats a huge difference maker between the two cases against Citeh...

....Oh, i forgot this... 5) Piakura/Tapou/Hetherington. Our best bench forward combo. Just sort out the 14. As for Piakura, nice work son, you've now jsutified half your salary. Keep going and make me eat my words...

Im sure the boys will appreciate their first bye, plus another 2 to look forward too. I'd like to congratulate them for what they have achieved this year. Cant do any better than what they've done so far. But, we were here last year too, top 4 side i think. And we fell apart in the run-in. That...

Woah....are we getting "both" of them..!!! :happy:

Flecther Blake coming on board next season will only add to that depth...

You know, i really thought Cronulla were a better team than last nights effort showed. Still a work in progress. Cleary the armchair fans across the game must think they're better than they are... But its been a pleasing two weeks for the boys. Not 100% but the NRL is a marathon and right now...

Maybe Kurt Capewell can give him a call and give him the low down...?

Can i throw a name in here who might be worthy of consideration. It looks increasingly likely that Scott Sorensen may be another casualty of Penriths salary cap squeeze. Playing very well this year, both on a edge and through the middle. Considering Palasia and Flegler are leaving, heres a...

I know theres little to no love for the Broncos from our current Origin coach, but i cant help but feel chuffed about just how excited Slater is to be coaching Recce. Its clear he sees a lot of himself in him at a similar age. And theres no better mentor in the game for Recce than Slater. Its...

Agree with all this respectfully - but theres nothing you or anyone else can do to convince me that contract was nothing but blind overs for potential. Plus as you said unecessary presur eon a kid at this stage of his development. I truly wish him luck, i think hes a fantastic talent. Our new...

....Face palm...!

Ha...correct, Piakura...my bad.....thanks!

The club is culpable too. We basically gave him a contract that screamed "congrats kid, you've made it". When in fact you've achieved jack-shit. When that happens you get tonight's performance. Our worst contract. Said as much for 2 years.

Great news about Marty; precisely the type we need to help the team navigate the loss of Keenan and Tom. The current SOO period is a really important one for Willison and Paliasia. I dont expect them to be game breakers or game winners when they play, but they need to show some levels of...

Maybe...but needs must....

If we are to have any chance of competing here, we need our natural ball players to have the pill as much as possible. Enter Corey Paix. Criminally, actually probably stupidly, underused against Melbourne, with no Arey we need someone on the field to steer this team either with the ball or...

Yet to see a proper 80 minute performance from this group. Dont know yet if thats a positive or not, but 7-1 tells me it is. If we can win 50% of these upcoming fixtures we will almost certainly be a semi final team this year. But we have had a nice draw, few injuries and suspensions. Its...
