Surely we wouldn't have the cash for Smith?

douhie, Feledy, Matamua, klemmer, Naden, Staines , sukar , tumeth all off contract for 2026.

Smith won’t even be back until mid year given his injury so no sensible club would even look at him until he’s back playing but I could see the roosters would prefer to just get him off the books now given it seems to be causing bad blood with the squad the way he hasn’t fitted in to his culture.

smith is close with May, is connected to Luai, and Marshall would have had stuff do do with him via the kiwi connection I assume.

Ah yes. So potentially only having to pay for a <1/2 season 2025 and subsidized as well, now I can see how it might work.

Good watch, gives a better understanding of his background. Terrell could be a massive influence on this club in coming years.

Really good look into the background of the May family and their presence in the Mt Druitt area. I guess for many of us we cant really imagine an upbringing like it. Great that Terrell, perhaps more than the others, understands the social issues many face living in low socio-economic areas. I hope he can be a great role model that other youngsters out there might follow and aspire to become.

Agreed. For me it also give an insight into why he is a bit of a different character and has probably a different POV on the sport. Ive watched his earlier "VLOGS" and have to be honest that I cringed pretty hard, but this one I think was very open, raw and honest and I respect him for that.

You have to respect people who pull themselves out of very challenging situations growing up. Clearly they have some issues but they all seem to have their parents strong attitudes. I wonder whether Taylan is worth giving a second chance to.

Taylan/Makasini centre pairing?

Taruva seems like he is playing wing long term so means Luke Lualili has to battle it out for the other wing.

I’m ok with second chances, Taylan might be past a second chance though and the accusations are not pleasant.

I think there would need to be an acquittal before I would be happy with his signing.

Well, that's all well and good, but the Club Sponsors might have other ideas. Someone once said,"if it walks like a duck, and looks like a duck, its a duck!!!!!!!!! Move on......
