I went Kiraz purely on his base stats. If he gets named in the centres thought, I’m moving to Hammer

Can anyone post the full story https://t.co/dUzyTnv19X

Just an opinion. Thought we were allowed to discuss opinions on a forum…

Is leaving Melbourne. Great defensive player and known leader in that Melbourne leadership group, and at 31, would set standards. As well, whenever I hear Gus commentating a Melbourne game on 9, he gives so much praise for him. Thoughts…

Anybody have anymore tickets spare that I could use please??? My son’s birthday today

FYI I've accounted for the recent 17% growth of player salaries in the cap. People like JAC were signed on $550 but have grown to around $625. Same with Mahoney, TPJ, Kikau etc. FIgures may look inflated but the cap has inflated

Team Lists - Player - Amount - 1. Blake Taafe $250,000 2. Josh Addo Carr $650,000 3. Bronson Xerri $400,000 4. Stephen Crichton $750,000 5. Jacob Kiraz $350,000 6. Matt Burton $850,000 7. Toby Sexton $400,000 8. Tevita Pangai-Junior $850,000 9. Reed Mahoney...

Why does Mahoney not have the C on him? Is it a glitch or has it been stripped?

RFM pulled out of the game according to Gus for some reason. Sounds fishy hey

Calm down! Mahoney is carrying an injury so he’s been benched. Nu Brown isn’t in the team as Mahoney only got the injury yesterday, so Flanagan has to go to hooker, meaning we need a half, which is why Averillo goes there, and Perham to fullback. Preston is injured late as well so he’s out...

Can anybody copy and paste the article?

Lol you’re probably not as bad as me. Having to play Paisami Saulo and IKat

Really like the idea. Mods should pin a match week thread and then a seperate match-day thread. Full threads get way too clogged up!

I think we would want him to play as a middle forward. He’s big and old enough to do so. Be a great 13 for us

Braith saying on 360 tonight that he’s heard ‘whispers’

What happened to Sutton?

Turbo in doubt to be picked now with injury, and even then he looks underdone. No way he gets picked for Game 1. Looks like Burton’s going back into origin.

We're already auctioning off the player worn jersey for a charity aren't we?

Quick Question; Why was Reed Mahoney at HFB today and Flanno at Hooker. Only caught glimpses. Serious answers other than Flanno is shit would be appreciated Thanks guys

Players that did their best, like Jack Cogger, but still weren’t amazing, aren’t considered. These players like Woods and Napa got their pay packet and played well below what they should have. When you have a contract like that, you have responsibility to achieve, and they have to take...

Hethrington did well, was a pretty good forward in 2021 and did well in the first couple of games of 22 before his injury. Cogger did his job for minimal money, and would be behind Flanno and Foran. Lewis debuted with us as well.

Nah Perrett went over to the broncos during Covid. Maybe he didn’t play NRL for them tho. Suli didn’t play a game I don’t think, so not gonna include him.

My fault, thought he debuted with the broncos.

Complied a 1-18 of our worst signings of the NRL Era. Player can’t have debuted at our club as well. Thoughts: Matt Dufty Nic Cotric Brenko Lee Brent Naden Corey Allan Kieran Foran Kyle Flanagan Luke Thompson (He’s hasn’t been as bad as others, but the price coupled with suspensions and...

Feel Okunbour will play edge-backrow tbh

Is anyone else getting ads at the top of their page on the kennel or is it just me?

When is this aiming to be released?

In 2023 we have an origin level 5/8 and hooker. Still 2 positions of the spine, which all 4 are as equally important as each other! Your point is?

Still feel he’s a really underrated player just overpaid. Not his fault, we were desperate. Feel he’s in for a big year tbh

I’m ‘Show me Mahoney’ because ‘Show me the Mahoney’ didn’t fit

Exactly 700k. 18% cap increase is now $825k new cap.

When thinking in terms of the old cap, we’d only be signing him for $700k, which is a reasonably good price.

Official now. White home, blue away. They look decent on the players ngl

Doesn’t this mean that he’s signed elsewhere if he’s sorted elsewhere?

Not really. Just basing all this off of logicality and what the player and club was like when they signed the contract

Burns was our last signing in 2022. I think it'd be bottom dollar. Okunbour was holding a starting spot when he resigned as well, and Davey and Perham are somewhat established NRL players, so they'd be on a bit.

Wouldn't trust them. These are more logical

Just put together this to help keep track of the top 30, and cap. Would love to hear any edits to player salary as well. Will edit when any new info comes in... Player - Amount - 1. Jake Averillo $200,000 2. Josh Addo Carr $550,000 3. Paul Alomoti $150,000 4. Braidon Burns $200,000...

Even Weidler is saying it now. Must be true.

Man true where’s Ava. No news of retirement or anything wow

Perham is a utility back. Plays anywhere from 1-7 and plays pretty decent for that. And all other plays play at R11, so that frees up Rajab, Gray, Hayward etc

What is this. Doorey has been in the NRL for a few years now and hasn’t set the world on fire AT ALL. What a confusing article

Thanks so much mate!!

Hey Guys. Haven't been too active on the socials and all that for a few months, and have come back to see a multitude of youth being signed up. Would anyone be able to out together a list of all our non-top-30 signings for 2023? Signings like train and trial, development and any other young players.

I have a feeling we’re going to be signing Klemmer. If we do, he’ll qualify for that allowance meaning we’ll probably only have to pay around 2-300k for him on the cap.

Thoughts on the idea. Think it’s time now that he’ll be especially valuable in the front row. Allows RFM to start in the right edge where he looks his best, and Thompson, King or Pangai to ball play and offload at lock. What Jackson does best is tackle and take the tough runs, which he can do...

Just saw that he’s been straight dropped from reserve grade. Was a lot of hype towards him last year. Fallen behind ZDC, Gray and new youngster Brandon Clarke. Anyone know what’s happened?

Everyone is saying he’s shit and yes he has had some very poor form recently, but this year he’s been one of the best forwards in the comp. It’s just not debatable. Have had him in my SuperCoach team from when Kimmorly took over Tigers, and he just performs to such a high standard week jn week...

Know the guy. For all the jokes said, he the hardest runner in that Joeys 1sts team. Ball play as well. Very very good prospect very highly rated. Honestly thought he would’ve gone to union

Nanai and May bro

Captains run on Saturday is at 11:30 This Thursday they’ll train at 2. Potter likes to mimic the time they play the game for the time they train, always around 3 days before the game. Apart from that, they train at 9 each day. They only miss one day in the week but that usually alternates. And...

Katoa is an amazing halfback. Played against him for school rugby past few years absolutely carves up. Will be amazing in the next few years but does need more development.

3. Flanagan 2. Casey 1. RFM

I can confirm this guys. Couple of friends and I were training with BBO on Friday and he said he was informed that he would be playing this week with Burton rested. Look like he didn’t want to be rested

Guys Egan and Sironen going was a joke take off some Insta page. Complete fake news!

3. Averillo 2. JMK 1. King

Hey Guys, Do Aisle 213 Gold tickets get the rain? Also, are you allowed umbrellas at the games? Remember they use to be banned for some reason haven’t taken one in ages

He came back to Sydney late on Monday went away for the break. He was there but not ready to train

That’s weird cause Casey was training in the reserves on Tuesday and Wednesday

Kiraz has been in the pink bin all week. That means injured right. Allan looked fine trained no problems yesterday, don’t know what happened today, will see at Captains Run tmr

Lot of people getting worried about having competition to keep Burton. Just here to point out the obvious thoughts and clear everything up… To be totally honest, only clubs don’t have a set or marquee 5/8, those being: Cronulla Brisbane Dragons Knights Warriors Dolphins Penrith have Luai...

I can definitely see that. Just haven’t seen it this year. Cookie has been very good and is a leader.

Did it using a 3, 2, 1 system. Best FLB gets three, second best 2 etc. NSW - 9 (3, 1, 3, 2) QLD - 8 (1, 3, 1, 3) NZ - 7 (2, 2, 2, 1)

3. TPJ 2. RFM 1. Schoupp

3. JAC 2. Burton 1. Averillo

Don’t have to respond if you don’t want to man!

Not really the question if you want him as coach or not, but more so if you see the pieces falling together for him to be coach. Similar to people piecing Madge together after thoughts on him being sacked from Wests, but this one has more substance as Gould recruited him to the Warriors

Anyone else have a feeling that Nathan Brown is looking to be the Dogs coach for next year. Revealed as on the outer with the Warriors and Gus was a major factor in bringing him to the Warriors. Just fits the idea of ‘experienced coach’ as well, and putting two and two together, got a strange...

I’m pretty sure he’s correct mate…

Confirmed just now in 6 tackles with Gus, by Gus. Signed…

We’re not last now!

3. JAC 2. Burton 1. Flanagan

Kiraz if you watched his debut interview is outside top 30 so won’t play next week

Sry guys got confused. Not Makatoa, Billy Tsikrius. Starting prop in reserve grade

Went to training today. Players absent are Naden, Averillo, Ava and Wakeham. Tho I did see Wakeham coming back into training wearing a mask so maybe his one came back negative. We lined up: Dufty Addo Carr Schoupp (Swapped sides, now defending Kotoni on the left) Kiraz Okunbour Burton Flanagan...

LETS GOOOOO ABSOLUTELY AMAZING

No drone? What were those white things flying in the air making a buzzing sound I saw at training? Get your facts straight Buzz!

Roosters Storm Panthers Sea Eagles Eels Rabbitohs Sharks Dragons Raiders Warriors Bulldogs Titans Broncos Tigers Cowboys Knights

Yh I wouldn’t start with turbo I was saying more a Papi and Teddy yk. I just can’t trust SJ anymore like how he dogged us last year yk and Graham idrk, same with James!

I wouldn’t start with Cleary at the expense of starting with 2 gun FLBs! Don’t like Wade Graham or Shaun Johnson they’re both past it and way too injury prone. Won’t be making money and will be a major trade out. Also believe David Fifita is a lock as well!

Cook isn’t starting at hooker at training! Is for reggies tho

That’s it! It was Masters and Toia thanks mate

Injured as well!

Ahhh Yh he’s there in reserve grade at lock

I was gonna say, it does look a lot like the panthers style and pretty much the same as how you described it!

It would be nice to see this season be an audition between RFM and Hethrington for the 2023 #11 spot, but we’ve just got to be able to fit Pangai in and honestly I can’t see Vaughan or Thompson on the bench yk

TPJ won’t be the same as he was at Brisbane you can trust that. He’s changed and it’s for the better. I think we should give him the benefit of the doubt on the edge, where his explosiveness is much better used, at least until Kikau comes in 2023, where we can reassess our options then.

Hethrington was running amazing lines today and scored a try as well! Honestly he’s going to be a revelation this year! Pangai connected really well with Naden and Addo Carr. Don’t underestimate the strength of the back row yk!!

In the opposed session the reserves lined up: Allan Lumelume Clarke Masters Toia Wakeham Flanagan Makatoa Cook Tuifua Topine Turahui Stuckey The injured group had Ava, Doorey, RFM and Thompson from what I could see

Went to training today. Averillo has the 7 on his back in team training today. Alamoti had the 3 since Schoupp is injured with Okunbour replacing Cotric on the wing. Patolo wore the 10 since Thompson was with the injured group which means he may be seeing a bench spot for the season. Apart from...

I got an email saying to renew when I’ve already got a receipt saying I’ve renewed. Strange…

Money doesn’t grow off trees mate

Munster was pretty good… oh wait

I agree with this fully! Most of you here haven’t seen what he does wheras a few of us here know what we’re talking about and have evidence to support it
