Ramien out for the Sharks

Better that than nothing at all.

Could be worse. He might be fit for the preliminary final and should be for the GF if we make it and need him.

So might only miss one game (the qualifier next week) that he wasn't going to be picked for anyway.

Great news. He'll be a real asset for us moving forward.

He's only young and hasn't been in the system very long.

He reminds me of Max King when he was here with the neither middle or edge comment. He's going okay at the moment.

I wonder how much help Blore was in getting him here. They were team mates in the 2018 NSW U18's before being at the tigers together.

Wow.

Great signing. I imagine Christian will be shopped before next year. Between him and Reimis that would cover much of the cost.

Interesting the boys on their podcast this week named Ashley Klein as their favourite ref.

Was reading an article earlier stating the Roosters won’t play the Panthers again this season until they meet in the Grand Final.

If they finish 2nd and 3rd wouldn't they play first week of the finals? 2nd Qualifying final?

I like Meaney as a player, but surely it's time to end the experiment with him at 4.

Today, statistically, he was our best outside back in defence. Made 20 tackles at 80%.

Neither's Wishart.

Papenhuyzen23 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 06, 2024 8:06 pm I was implying Howarth or Ieremia might play centre and shift Meaney onto the wing

Or 5/8

Are we all generally agreed that the Nick Meaney Centre experiment has failed and is now over ? Footnote…Nick is clearly a very good footballer and no doubt a very good team mate and I like him in our 17. He’s just not got the skill set, strength or tactical positioning to make Centre his position....

This.

Real fans aren’t one eyed and can take off their purple glasses and call out a bad play or an out of form player, sorry if it offends your sensitive personality.

Not sensitive. Just think you’re a dribbler.

This!

Will be interesting to see who Tui comes in for. First time that he, NAS, Welch, Macdonald, King and Loeiro have been all available this year. Do we go with 3 props on the bench? Or does one of those miss out? Hopefully not Macdonald, but it wouldn't surprise. I think with Garlic on the bench who c...
