Kids got talent for sure, but he still needs time to develop, imo he's first stint in the NRL it showed he wasn't ready yet, not to mention he's out for the year with a serious injury so with that and the halted development KO won't be a serious option for several years.He shits on sexton, Hutchinson, Taaffe and Tracey too
Sounds like a utility!!Hardly whispers, Joash Papalii to be tried in multiple positions was stated by GM of Pathways Adam Hartigan on Bulldogs site on 11 Oct 2023.
Kid is definitely talented and should have a good nrl career injury permitting at either centre, 5/8 or in the back row.Kids got talent for sure, but he still needs time to develop, imo he's first stint in the NRL it showed he wasn't ready yet, not to mention he's out for the year with a serious injury so with that and the halted development KO won't be a serious option for several years.
that Willison from Broncos looks like massive untapped potentialHopefully May is signed shortly and announced ffs. Him and mooney are who I’m hoping for and really hope we go all in for that Wilson from Brisbane. Those 3 probably could be secured for close to afb pay and easily by thompsons and tpjs pay packet and realllly would solve our headaches.
Can’t fuck about though.
Yep. Huge circle around him on my end. If his on the radar and happened would go a long way to explaining not going balls deep on afb:that Willison from Broncos looks like massive untapped potential
Hopefully you arent too hyped up about it. We are stronger then last season but not by much. Id be happy with a 10th place finish but I'd be very surprised to be above that. Id actually be happy to go up from this season.tbh am not too concerned who is coming to the club 2025 and am focused on this season.
Would be good to get a few young props to sure up our middle. I hope we are still on the look out. I just hope the club isnt just going to bank on juniors and sell us the 3-5 year thing then they flop and we are back to square one. I agree building within is the best approach, but after 20 years of no ultimate success and 8 years of no finals appearance we do need to build a team outside of centres and utilities.Hopefully May is signed shortly and announced ffs.

"Not by much", seriously. Using the Round 1 2023 team;Hopefully you arent too hyped up about it. We are stronger then last season but not by much. Id be happy with a 10th place finish but I'd be very surprised to be above that. Id actually be happy to go up from this season.
Ha, am always gonna be hyped about the potential of a new season. It's not until round 10 or so, that the hype fades or potentially increases if doing well. It's part of the fun of being a fan.Hopefully you arent too hyped up about it. We are stronger then last season but not by much.

Critchon is a big upgrade but an outside back...... Good singing though. Curran, Taaffe, Tracey, Knight, Hutchinson, Salmon are upgrades of what we had, but we had the worst for and against last year and i think we were 6 points off last. We did some little moves and tried to bring in good trainers and players with good attitude which is a nice start. But lets not pretend we are a top 8 team"Not by much", seriously. Using the Round 1 2023 team;
You don't think Crichton is much of an upgrade over Perham, interesting.
You don't think Curran is much of an upgrade over Nu Brown, interesting.
You don't think Taaffe/Sexton is much of an upgrade over Flanagan, interesting.
You don't think Tracey is much of an upgrade over Alamoti, interesting.
You don't think Knight is much of an upgrade over Pele, interesting.

I have gone into every season for the last 5 decades with high expectations and I haven't yet once "called for the coach, CEO and all of players sacked before Round 3".Critchon is a big upgrade but an outside back......

If you go into the season with too high expectations youll be wanting the coach, Ceo and all players sacked before round 3. Id be disappointed if we let in 700 points this season, but realistically I'll be happy with a 12 place finish. We havent improved that much to jump over manly, parra and the cowboys, Id honestly be happy to be competitive and to win 10-12 games, but to go in hyped up that we are a good team is a bit premature. Done that the past 10 years haha I'll still tune in and still attend the games as a member. But we are in a rebuild so not expecting big inroads this year and I am prepared for that.
I have gone into every season for the last 5 decades with high expectations and I haven't yet once "called for the coach, CEO and all of players sacked before Round 3".
Last season is exactly that last season, but I believe we should have won the games against Warriors, Sharks, Raiders x 2, Roosters and Titans, That's 6 games plus the 7 that we did win would get us into the 8 (ie; same as the Roosters & Raiders last season). Of those 6 games we lost 4 of them by 4 points or less. I don't believe it is being overly optimistic to have expectations this season of us scoring 5 more points and/or allowing the opposition to score 5 less points. Of course the against looks shit, but take out 3 blow out games when we fielded half an NRL team and we are better than the Raiders who made the 8.
A new season awaits.
