TomorrowWhen does SBW start training with us?
Very soon I hope. Let’s hope we get the news we want and that he’s taken the deal An is coming home..!!When does SBW start training with us?
Rugby world cup final is at the start of NovemberWhen does SBW start training with us?
Lewis could only dream of throwing passess like Graham. Wade can throw them better than most halves in the gameWould love to see Lewis put on 6-8kgs work on his acceleration in the off season. Could be a very handy lock similar to Wade Graham
Wade Graham is something special, yet as good as we've seen him play i dont think he has reached his potential.Lewis could only dream of throwing passess like Graham. Wade can throw them better than most halves in the game
And he plays left side second row. Never much lock. No comparison in style at all really.Lewis could only dream of throwing passess like Graham. Wade can throw them better than most halves in the game
I think Cust from Manly is available aswell and was outstanding with limited opportunitiesSBW will stop us from signing someone like D. Fifita i'd say (unless it was a 1 year deal).
There are 2 Halfbacks available, Croft and Townsend. I don't like talking about players that are still contracted at other clubs past 2021.
If we just wanted to sign strike players Latrell and D. Fifita for me. We're an effort team and need some explosive players. That would eat up almost 2/3's of what we have to spend tho.
Anyone know Frank Kuresa?Anyone know if Frank Kuresa has been offered a deal?

People think weight will change everything
Wade, at the Panthers & early on in his career at the Sharks was a half predominantly at five eighth & occasionally halfback. He’s predominantly & preferred position is lock .After the ASADA scandal & the employment of a gun sports science/conditioner at the Sharks he put on mass without compromising agility. Defensively good, can ball play & can kick in general play:-why he was chosen a utility for NSW from 2013-2019, he can easily cover the halves & backrow, a role I can see Lewis covering.
Unfortunately, weight is a factor in making a significant difference- the game now is about athleticism:-strength & speed rather than skill. For a player to absorb the constant,rigorous collisions of week in week out NRL a body weight of +95kgs is mandatory
But but SBW hur dur derp! :/Has anyone actually watched SBW in union?
He is slower and a lot older in a game without the 10m rule in defense, cant see him ever coming back to the NRL
Even when he was at the Bulldogs he wasn't the greatest player likevwe thought?But but SBW hur dur derp! :/
He busted the line for us in 2004-2006 a hell of a lot and the Roosters GF win he set up two tries but he is cooked now.Even when he was at the Bulldogs he wasn't the greatest player likevwe thought?
Just because he is a big guy with fancy flick passes and unnecessary offloads.
He would hardly bust the defence through a player near his own size!
And before you know it he is injured for 3 quaters of a season and wanting 1.5 mill a year for it!
Just watched a replay of 2004 games last night, oh to have someone of that calibre in our team again.He busted the line for us in 2004-2006 a hell of a lot and the Roosters GF win he set up two tries but he is cooked now.
Couple of game highligts from 2006 on Instagram and he was dominating everyone, we had such a great team back then people are remembering players like SBW being average while today Lewis kicks the balls standing sideways with a 4 man overlap and its praised.Just watched a replay of 2004 games last night, oh to have someone of that calibre in our team again.
