Afoa another short term contract. Geyer one year and Bird off contract end of 2026, seems a strategy in place to leave room for a 2027 signing or two.
Pretty happy with this one. I wonder if we still get Nathan Brown.

Bunty improves the squad. It’s a positive signing.

Hopefully there is a solid plan in place for '26, '27 and '28!
Bunty is a good pig. With him in the squad I’m happy to have brown vs bird. Now just need NAS and we are top 8
my early guess for round 1. No Latu given shoulder reco. We sign Kamakamika and we als sign a utility who can cover 9.
1. Bula
2. Turuva
3. Toa
4. may
5. Makasini
6. luai
7. Douhie
8. Terrel
9. api
10. kamakamika
11. Kpp
12. sam
13. Twal
14. pole
15. bunty
16. Sione
17. Utility
What is the latest with Jordan Miller? He has an unfair dismissal claim against the club which must be ongoing but he would want to be making his way back onto the field at some stage?
It might not be realistic but I would consider offering him a train and trial deal as part of any settlement. He was showing plenty of promise and is still young.
For example in his last game in 2024 with Wests in Cup here are his stats
19 min
10 hitups
109 total metres

I don't think Richo is the kind of guy who lets you back in after you launch legal action against the club.
Also, he already struggled for fitness. What condition is he in?
