Where did you see that?

Cooper Bai would be a huge coup for the club. Hope we offer him a stand being named after him at Aami Park and tell him a fan online discussion forum will also be named after him. See if that gets it over the line.

Was hoping we might be a shot at lemuelu with dolphins stacked back row.

They've made the right move if they have priortised him over keeley.

I dont see much in him, doubt he'll make the starting side especially if katoa returns. Might be handy on the bench.

All reports are that Blore will be leaving. Keeley is better than Chan and Lisati imo. I’m a big fan.

Hope blore stays, we've put a lot into him and I think he's still got more to give.

Keeley seems to have a decent work rate, but he's about to turn 23 and I don't know if much else sticks out about his game. Isn't he kind of like a poor mans dylan lucas? What do u like about his game Stormszn?
