Better than what the Tigers copped.
How is it fair they get the bye in round 1 for the second time, it should be shared around so no team gets it twice (same with the last round of the season)

Flights are booked. Can’t wait!

The consequences of being a rubbish club with zero influence I guess. Should have been Souths.

14. Watson / Ioelu (if Watson gets 13 first)
15. Egan

18. Savala if still here (otherwise rodwell)
19. Steep or Foketi (whoever misses out on 13)
20. Vaa
21. Talau / pauga / toops 2

rads not avaialabe but once back he slips to 13, Watson 14 and steep and Foketi outside the 17

seems only 13 spot the one up for grabs
Watson certainly in 17 but unsure on 13 or 14 to start

we need a younger middle to step up in 2026 like Vaa / seve

Nice looking team.

I hope he starts the season and perseveres with Watson at 14.

I saw more from Loaslu than Va’a this year. I’d like to see him get a go.

Mix it up. " taking our lessons " (wank wank) , and Roosters footy don't cut the mustard any more.

AI picks the draw - what a load of bs. The big wigs and ' others ' with invested interests create the draw.

When PVL says Ai he really means, Ai after C9 and Fox have made their preferences.

Criminally unfair that they've had a first round bye 2 of the last 3 seasons. Should obviously be everyone has a turn in order. Not so sure about the last round.

The first thing I look at is our bye rounds. Last year they were 10,14,17. So a 10 week run into the finals with no bye. The year before they were 14,19,23, which is fantastic.

Interesting pack and should catch the Warriors off guard.

[Stewie Griffin]

What a shithouse first gamer. Can see how far down the wrung we've slipped

i'm thinking it's alright. good to get an early game in the round to allow time to recover for the next and if we're playing the warriors twice better to be playing them away in early march than in mid-winter
