How many contracted players you see this year move on early. John Morris was close doing it to Fifita, was playing him in cup and dragons came knocking. Imagine our club hero treated like that!

I was close to being a fish once but then I realised I couldn’t breathe under water.

I bagged Tariqs origin selection but he was ****ing immense. I'd be happy to have him if it was a 2 year deal. No more long ass deals for old players.

Finucane
Sims
Graham
McInnes

That is some incredible leadership to lift a pack.

How many head knocks you think Wade has left in him?

Honestly I can only go by what he has said, and he was quoted after talking to Cordner saying he hadn't had any the same symptoms or feelings.

If we were to lose him having Tariq would be all the more beneficial.

Sims would help give our pack a gnarlier edge.

At the moment they're all nice guys apart from Talakai, who tries to kill people.

Would love Sims, I reckon he was one of the best for the Blues during Origin and arguably Dragons best most weeks. You see him always put in a lot of effort competing, even just small things like his pressure on the kickers for example and I believe he’s better than Nikora, Wilton and Talakai so it improves our squad.

As for Nikora, Wilton and Talakai I’m happy to use Talakai permanently off the bench, flick one if needed, keep one as good depth and then probably becomes Graham’s full time replacement for 2023. As some have said it would be easy as to ship someone like Nikora off to another club if it come to that

I was only thinking yesterday when reading about how JWH waited and wanted to punch or very least confront latrell in the tunnel, as the roosters alpha male I personally love that he takes it upon himself. We don’t have anyone currently in our team that would even dream of doing that, certainly years gone by gal fifs ennis and others would hunt them down and get in their face, at least even when we were hsit we could give the opposition bruises, love what Fitz has got coming here so far but would love a god damn hard hitting nutter.

I’d be all for Sims to Sharks, but as a prop not 2nd row.
Granted, he would be one of the smaller props going around, he is bigger than Tolman and gives up abt 5 kegs to Woods, but he is a much more aggressive player than both.
If we have the cash, we certainly have the spot in our top 30.

I don't think you need so many big props the days, do might be a goer. We definitely need some more mongel, and he's got the right kind
