lol the one that I tend to visit has barely raised an eyebrow.. now if Haas goes I suspect that might change. Most acknowledge the challenge and Parra fans a little upset as early in a contract, but most see it as SBW wave 2 and we will all watch the NRL backtrack on their 10 year pledge if it doesnt work .. so most think not a huge deal.
But youre right a comp with no history with a mix of people from across codes ..but do get paid very well if it flies

I must be on the extra precious one.
TBF, some of the posters hate rugby like it raped their sisters. Which makes it weird how much rugby they talk.
holy fuck Eli Katoa won't play at all next year.
I hope Tonga have a really good insurance policy

Yeah that's incredibly sad and Im still angry at the Tongan staff who thought it was ok to let him play. The BS excuse that they didn't have the camera angle doesn't fly either as plenty of eye witnesses have come forward saying they were stunned.
NRL will make a big thing out of this because if they don't they will have to deal with significant repercussions
Again just feel awful for him and his family
NRL still silent on EKat affair...thankfully everyone wants answers
Also once was a warrior, bulldog, Knight, Panther,... Hetherington now replacement for Ekat. Jeez I know the Storm can take ok players and make them great, but this would be a big ask.
Coby Black to Raiders 2026... huge signing if completed, might play first grade this year big young name
Ruben Garrick chased by multiple teams and unfortunately the Warriors are not one of them mentioned, no surprises that the Roosters are
Ivan Cleary is shopping in the Warrior's odds and ends bin. Now he's bought Freddy Lussick. Does he know something we don't?

Perhaps, although one we were shopping around
He's bought 3 or 4 reserve Warriors now hasn't he?

yeah him, the prop...Ale, kalani going, Patrick Moimoi and maybe another
so yeah building some depth, which seems weird given their juniors are normally better than everyone else.

I hope Webster isn't doing a Razor, holding on to too many older players and seeing his younger guys leave the club
Lussick is a good guy to get rid of, he's no longer a competitive hooker and is one of the Clark style middle forwards.
But, watch my head explode when we replace him with another journeyman Aussie, or watch other posters heads explode when we replace him with NAS.

Or when Cleary turns him into a star

I'm pretty confident he's not going to turn Lussick into a star - Ale and Moimoi though ...

Im not confident he will on Ale either, the kid had plenty of chances to try and cement a position and now others surpassed him, Moimoi though Im curious about!

I think there's a chance of the curse of the Warriors going on where a guy leaves and hits his potential.
loooool the Tigers are the gift that keeps on giving. Have a decent year? Seemingly moving forward, a bit calmer off the field, some measured signings etc
Fuck that y'all! That's not in our DNA! Release a jersey that the owners think is "too Balmain not enough Wests" and so half the fucking Board gets the ass!!
Why? Why does this club exist? So the Dragons don't feel so bad about themselves?
The Wests Tigers win a fucking GF 20 YEARS AGO!!! What kind of small dick big ego backwards looking fuckwits still thinks about them in terms of two failed clubs from the fucking 80s?? Wests were shit then too. Idiotic.
