Re: Official thread and signing news

I've seen it said somewhere that we have 2 roster spots available, I'm assuming we now want a half and a middle forward. Anyone got any idea who we're looking at?

Re: Round 12 - Sea Eagles vs Storm

Exactly why I can't shake the idea of Jacks coming in short term. He knows the players and the systems and he's a decent defender.

Re: Magic RD 2024 Storm v parramatta

They certainly create a lot of opportunities with those hard runs and all the offloads

Edit - just looked on nrl website and they have 35 for the year between them (Blore 20, Katoa 15), that's a lot of second phase

Re: Magic RD 2024 Storm v parramatta

Bradley is probably worth a decent look in the role. He covers wing and centre but can also play second row so gets minutes regardless. Also runs hard.

Re: Magic RD 2024 Storm v parramatta

Have we ever had a second rower as good in the air as Katoa? Hoffy maybe, but I think Katoa might be a better aerialist.

Re: Magic RD 2024 Storm v parramatta

Not sure which blunt crayon records the stats on nrl.com but they've given Loiero 3 kicks in general play and Meaney 0.

Re: Magic RD 2024 Storm v parramatta

Their fullback being allowed to bleed all over everyone is ridiculous. I couldn't do that at my work, why do they allow such an obvious health and safety hazard in the NRL?

Re: Magic RD 2024 Storm v parramatta

Would have thought Howarth to centre and Meaney/Smith to wing was more effective myself
