2025 is wide open. 5 points between 5th and last place. 9 points between last and 2nd. We could easily see 4-5 teams bail out of the 8 by the end of the season. With the Bulldogs last third of their season, they could take a tumble too. A team like the Panthers or Roosters could peak at the right time.
The entire Chooks starting front row and two bench forwards, couldn’t handle our Cup youngsters last weekend.
It really puts into perspective how well our development is tracking. Back in the SJ era, all we had was the Toyota Cup.
Now, we’re seeing kids come through Flegg & SG Ball stepping up to 💙 Mighty NSW Cup level, going toe-to-toe with seasoned first-graders and veteran pros.
And the 💙 Mighty NSW Cup teams haven’t faced our Harold Matts guns yet!!! Hope Bishop gets a run this season.
We haven’t won a premiership yet, and we’re not even halfway through the season—though we’re close—but credit where it’s due: hats off to our management
