NRL NRL 2026 General Recruitment Thread

Didn't realise Egan would be 30 by the time his contract ends, but even then id still think Egan at 32, 33 years of age for 30 minutes off the bench would be extremely valuable.
But Tafua is 22 in June, is he happy to be behing both Healey and Egan if theyre are resigned. Both are off contract in 2027 so can be approached come November, so im keen to see what we do. Its likely we wont be keeping all 3
I think it will be a case of making an offer that won't match another club who need an experienced player in the spine and he moves on. I like Egan but the head knocks and injuries are catching up with him i think and by the time he is 30 I would expect us to be looking at other options to replace him.

I'm surprised his old man didn't try and turn him into a 6
PNG looking to buy the dynasty.
Better keep an eye on Fish, I reckon.
As long as he bows to King Fish and his Mrs' stays away from selling Brownies, I wouldn't say no to him slotting in for Barnett.

He’d fall in line id be all for it depending on price of course you can tell he didn’t fit that roosters culture like TMay
For sure. It's always a bit sketchy trying to figure out why players thrive and sink under certain systems.
If it worked out the same way that our recent signings have; our pack would the best in the NRL, by a LOOOONG way.
He’ll end up at the Dogs
I know our recruitment isnt done for 2028 onwards, but was a little worried at how little experience we have booked in currently.
I know there will be some who aren't resigned that hopefully will be (Ford, , Boyd, CHT, Egan, Pompey potentially) but currently we have JFH, Clark, and Wahbrick) who will either be over 30 or >100 games played.
Our next step down will be those young guys who are 22-26 with a
I think wed likely need to pick up an experienced player or two outside of our current crop of players.
Leniu isnt the kinda guy I would go for specifically, but I think there could be a case made for him being a decent pick up if the price was right I could see it working out pretty well.
Of course, its important to remember that in this scenario wed be getting a better version of Leniu (as all recruits improve under Webby) than he is currently

Damien Cook is 35 this year so we probably have this version of Egan for another 3 seasons, he could be a "one club man" type and like others said continue here post career, been here for almost a decade by the end of current contract.
He only needs to sprain an elbow and out for a few weeks and we'd have Healey + Taufua in the 17.....I feel our attack's slick with Egan though, he and Boyd are the key to our attack structures.

Father Time is undefeated.
I would say no - too much of a hot-head.
Someone saw CHT around Townsville the other day.
