    It's not that bad a side haha. Yes full of journeymen but not as bad as it's being made out on here.

    Probably a 10th to 12th place side on paper.

    it's worse than last year and we finished 13th then.

    More expectation with that side which played a part in them underachieving, Johnson was done, and Harris was being held together by duct tape, but theyve both been moved on now. Other than that, it's not too dissimilar to last seasons side, with the exception of AFB being swapped out with JFH. Obviously everyone would have CNZ swapped out with RTS, but Webster seems quite stubborn on that issue.

        I reckon there's three players listed who would get a start in the majority of the NRL teams in the positions they're in - JFH, Barnett, and Capewell (based on his Oz rep).

        I love CNK but I don't think he's getting picked for a lot of teams.

          @Nepia Egan would walk into a few NRL teams, namely Parra, Newcastle, maybe even Broncos this year just to name a few.
          RTS would be snapped up by someone even on the wing
          Im not sure Capewell would now though

          Agree on CNK though

            The Egan who finished 2024 - are you one of the dudes on my league forum? 😉

            If RTS is starting it's only because he's RTS, not because he's a top winger.

            Capewell played Origin last year.

              an absolutely dud pick that contributed to the series being lost. Billy should have questions to answer around that

                As an FYI I'm in no way advocating for Capewell, I just thinks his stocks might be rated higher than we rate him, high enough for Billy to pick him twice.

                  Yeah that was weird that selection....along with playing Kaufusi for about 20 mins across the whole series.

                    Tigers to just miss the eight. Due primarily to an egregious bunker error.

                      I think they make massive strides this year, whether that includes an 8 spot or not.

                            Not a lot of promising signs so far.

                              Well the guy who just scored should be in the bin

                                Really? League is softer than rugby when it comes to "protecting the kicker".

                                Edit: Yay we got one. although if Savage was in the bin he wouldn't have been able to knock the ball on to give us another set and then look lost on defence. 😉

                                  Outstanding from Capewell there, great positioning. One of our best so far

                                    Last year that was bin every week, don’t be surprised if that on report ends in a ban that only helps future opponents

                                          Well the guy who just scored should be in the bin

                                          Doesn’t help though

                                          Really? League is softer than rugby when it comes to "protecting the kicker".

                                          We just suck balls.

                                          Edit: Yay we got one. although if Savage was in the bin he wouldn't have been able to knock the ball on to give us another set and then look lost on defence. 😉

                                          Last year that was bin every week, don’t be surprised if that on report ends in a ban that only helps future opponents
