    Anthony Milford

    If the forwards can do well, the halves will go just fine. If the forwards can't do well, it will be a long season for Milford, O'Sullivan and Katoa.

    First season, 2023

    Good question. Something about how much upside potential each player has from the form he had previously showed. A higher number, like 123, means he has already shown tremendous potential.

    2023 Draw

    It's a really nice draw. Only 3 probable top teams before Origin and then Melbourne, hopefully without their Origin players. Penrith also in the Origin period.

    First season, 2023

    The Dolphins: Tesi Niu (123.9) Been interesting reading the reaction to the Dolphins’ signing of Herbie Farnworth. A plurality, if not a majority, agreed it upgraded a weak position on the Dolphins’ roster. I can see the logic – Euan Aitken’s the centre you have when you expect to upgrade and...

    Round 1 vs Sydney Roosters

    Do they know something we don't? Why do they keep tipping Bostock to start when he isn't in the top 30?

    Round 1 vs Sydney Roosters

    Me too. Milfs form was disgraceful in the GC trial game. When Katoa came on, immediate improvement.

    Round 1 vs Sydney Roosters

    Apparently Benny has made the call. Katoa to start round one at 5/8, Milford in the QLD Cup.

    2023 season miscellaneous news

    With the tough, veteran forward pack and average (at best) backline, a negative, grinding style might be what's in store for this year. Not the most fun to watch.

    Round 1 vs Sydney Roosters

    The Hammer is going to get first shot at fullback. If he screws it up, Niu might replace him but it won't be for round 1. It will be round 4 or 5 at the earliest barring injury.

    Trial Games

    DOLPHINS’ DEFENSIVE ISSUES The Dolphins have some serious defensive issues to fix ahead of Round 1 after their edges were badly exposed against the Titans. Tesi Niu and Brenko Lee were playing in the centres but Greg Alexander believes one of those spots will go to Warriors recruit Euan Aitken...

    9C as the minimum or the maximum? I guess it must be the latter because it gets to about 9C in Brisbane at night in the middle of winter.
