Preston is a better fit on the left outside of Burton than Kikau is imo. Preston forces Burton to play straighter.
It’s been Mahoney hitting Preston but yeh we haven’t seen the edges really working yet… I see ur frustration re ball players.

Especially given our lack of props, Kikau might be more beneficial to the team in the middle

Him and Kikau is/ if not will be considered the best second row pairing in the comp. If Burton can start to thread in kikau that’s gonna be a fun watch.

Nasheed here,
of course, no issues with this if the price is low.

If we are giving him a bit of cash, I need to ask, has he really earnt it yet, has he REALLY done anything of note?
Id like to see a full year from him before we go berserk.
Lewis was signed to a 500k contract off a few games too, as was Flanno.

Maybe let this roll fly a bit?

Really don't like the Crighton signing...
We need a fullback who can also ball play In fact, many top teams have fullback, and even 13's, who are better ballplayers than our halfback.

Preston runs good lines, has good hands, and looks stong.

We have a FB coming through the grades and one there now that will only get better for the interim.. We also have plenty of strike centers and alot of kids to upgrade very soon.

We will not be signing a gun prop after Thommo as it will be his money that will be used.

This bloke is awesome, a throwback to footy players from the 80s and 90s. Tough, goes all day, breaks tackles, runs good lines, has that innate sense of timing for how to hit ball carriers with some sting. Seems to be a really nice bloke too, humble, doesn't get ahead of himself, but with some real inner steel of determination about him.
your forgetting the most important aspect.. the mullet
