Yeah I thought it was good too. I think I like him more now... A pretty unassuming brah who just slogged away at it.

The idea of him playing fullback is the stuff of nightmares though.

Imagine him in the last line of defence...."ya can't run without a head brah"

From the DT:

Cronulla has lodged a contract extension for centre Jesse Ramien but rival clubs, and possibly one rugby league legend, are preparing to circle.

Sharks management have been in talks with Ramien’s manager, Warwick Wright, with an offer spanning two or three years having been formally tabled.

The Daily Telegraph has been told Wests Tigers and possibly the Dolphins have an interest in Ramien.

When contacted for confirmation, Wests Tigers chief executive Justin Pascoe only said: “We don’t talk about player recruitment speculation.

“Our focus right now is preparing the squad as best we can for the 2023 season.”

One well-placed source claimed Wests Tigers coach-in-waiting, Benji Marshall, is a big fan of Ramien, who comes off contract at Cronulla after next season.

Wests Tigers, according to one rival NRL coach, would be chasing a quality centre although the club recently retained Brent Naden.

Cronulla officials aren’t remotely surprised Ramien has attracted interest from other NRL clubs.

The Sharks haven’t been told about any interest for Ramien from Wests Tigers.

Rival clubs will have to find something special to extract Ramien from the Shire.

The Sharks want to retain Ramien and the player has indicated a desire to re-sign.

Talks have been prolonged due to the NRL’s inability to settle upon an ongoing salary cap.

Cronulla management fear the only way Ramien, 25, would leave was through a massive offer from a rival club.

One source close to Cronulla claimed talks with Ramien - who lives in the Shire - had been “positive.”

The Sharks feel Ramien wants to be part of a Cronulla club growing rapidly under head coach Craig Fitzgibbon.

Cronulla has already re-signed Siosifa Talakai and Ronaldo Mulitalo and are now wanting to lock down Ramien and Sione Katoa.

“Jesse is a good centre off contract so he will certainly have some interest,” said one NRL coach.

Wright is also the manager of Rabbitohs champion Latrell Mitchell, who signed a new long-term deal with South Sydney this week.

Given he is off contract after next season, Ramien is free to receive offers from rival clubs.

He'll stay with us.

He left once for a piss weak club, how did that go?
Yeah I 100% agree. I can't see him leaving us after what he went through with Newey. Little bit surprised DK didn't ask/prod with how he was going in terms of contracts etc

I think Jesse has come a long way. I do remember watching him playing for Newtown, and could see the raw talent he has.
I am glad he came back to sharks and we helped him get back his form.
just need to fix those small snaps and bring the form from 2022, and could be in line for SOO.
though i do see him going to back row when he gets a few more yrs on him

Jesse all day. If we use him properly he will play for Australia within 2 years IMO.
