Doubt we will be signing him as we have about 400x wingers, but another article where the May brothers state they want to play together.

Highly likely we will see all 3x at the Dogs in 2025 including Terrell

[Tommy Smith]

They can all play for Samoa.

I would feel it highly unlikely that Terrell would throw away the progress he's made at the Roosters to go play for the 2nd worst team in the comp.

Geez I hope not. Terrell is an exciting prospect, who we need to hang on to.

He'd be mad.

Even if they fluke a high ladder position next year, would you risk committing to 2025 when the Bullscum have barely any recent history of regularly playing semi final football - let alone winning competitions?

No chance will the Dogs finish 2nd last next yr....their roster is getting as strong as ours. Injures decimated them last yr...injures don't just affect us believe it or not.

Their roster is a long way off being a top 8 roster.

No recognised first grade standard fullback or halfback and their front row stocks are reserve grade level. As long as I’ve watched Rugby league they’re some pretty crucial pieces to the overall jigsaw puzzle.

They’re a better side than las year, but don’t be fooled too quickly they’re building on top of shaky foundations.

That was my point, they finished 3rd last in 2023 and can only improve.

Kikau was missing most of the yr...add Crichton (best centre in the game), Xerri, Hutch, Salmon, Connor Tracey, Josh Curran etc etc.

If Crichton plays F/B, your point is moot. Connor Tracey & Blake Taffe other options

Plenty of options in the halfs with Burton, Hutch, Sexton and maybe either Salmon at 5/8th.

Have Max King, Ryan Sutton & Liam Knight as props...not the worst but agree that's where they need to improve. That's why they chasing T May.

Will finish somewhere between 7th & 12th is 2024 IMO.

Not a fan of that club but u cannot denial they are building well.

Stephen Crichton is not a recognised first grade standard fullback, it’s just what struggling clubs with no real recruitment strategy are forced into doing. Overpaying for elite players in non-spine positions and then trying to justify that spend by forcing them into a more pivotal role - in this case fullback. A position in which he’s only played 6 times at NRL level.

Stephen Crichton at fullback is a Hail Mary. Good luck to them but I think there’s a ceiling to how good he can be in that position and that is going to be below the average NRL fullback.

That’s exactly right 6, they have no grunt up front & when injuries hit their forwards they will really be in trouble.
12th at best for them next year.

[King Salvo]

Any team with the Hutchinator in it is a chance of making the 8 - A very heady playing when playing in the halves as we all have seen.

A more than fair stating pack - not sure of the depth squad wise

8-Sutton
9-Mahoney
10-King
11-Kikau
12-Preston
13- Curran

Luai now a shot with the dogs too, Burton,chrichton,kikau,salmon,may,may,may

[Thirteen]

I think the dogs will be bottom 4 again.

You might be right, they have made some decent signings but a spine of:

Taaffe/Crichton/Tracey
Burton
Sexton/Hutch
Mahoney/Turpin
Curran

Is not top tier....

We may look to sign the other brother playing in the Uk to replace Kerry

[Paddo Colt 61]

Lotsa stars at Canterbury. Robbo steers away from that conflicting egos risk in recruitment but even then it takes him a number of rounds to get the team to gel. Big names has to take longer, or never. The Dolphins is a case in point. Gould is a wise man and the roster is now very impressive but his Penrith build to excellence was different and it had/has a great coach which is essential.
