I tink we'll do very well.
The guys will be out to show it just wasn't a one off.

Agree with you Gil.

Back to back hasn't been done since 92/93. Would be a great feather in our cap.
A lot of our players are playing for contracts post 2017 so they'll be hungry.

I think 2017 will be a good year. Should again be top four and from there anything can happen. Cowboys were unlucky to get two really tough games before they played us, had they not used up so much petrol in those two games they would have been a force.

With good conditioning and luck with injuries no reason we can't do it again.

IF true which club ? Penrith ? , Titans? Manly ?


One club has got itself in such a financial mess with the salary cap that it's hard to see how they could possibly sign another player before the 2016 season starts.

In fact, they will be busy offloading players.

Their plight is the talk of player agents and CEOs throughout the game and is a real worry for the club and the NRL.

It will all come out in the wash very soon but player managers are steering their clients well clear of the joint for now.

Don't care, as long as it's not us.

round 1 v donkies still gives us a slight hope of a road trip

it'd be nice to have more than 1 game in south east qld, that being the titans game at robina. also would be nice for that game to not be on a monday night.

I can guarantee you 100% that won't be happening.

yeh i dont think we should be throwing shade at people considering we had to sign taulima ****ing tautai to make up numbers

The 56-10 loss to the Tigers takes the cake for me. I was at that game. It was probably the worst performance by any team I have ever seen live.
