That would be pretty nek level, although I just looked and he's 34 lol. Cant believe he's that old!

Edit: just saw he has 2025 and 2026 with Knights and a mutual option for 2027.

I don't think we'd be dumb enough to pick that contract up, he'd nearly be 37 at the end of 2027...

That would cement us as the oldest, slowest backline of all time

It's a case of try to win now or build a sustainably winning club

 

[Brightman]

thought you would be able to spot the difference in his physique from the two videos shown. He has lost a LOT of weight. He never looked remotely that trim whilst in the NRL. He looks fitter than some starting wingers we saw on the weekend. And has far more ability.

Is Ozempic a banned substance in sport..

 

[Chchfanatic]

How about Samuel Stonestreet. I’d take him every day of the week.

If Mulitalo resigns with Cronulla he should a target for sure!

 

[Zarjaz]

Most punchable face is a thread on its own.

Heaps more

Greg Bird - Hall of Fame PF. (…not that I'm promoting violence)

Has Katoni Staggs resigned with the broncs?

 

[Chchfanatic]

Mulitalo just signed a 3year extension. He’s going nowhere.

 

[Billyspleen75]

Sione Katoa then? The sharks winger who is actually NZ born

 

[Warriorsfan92]

Mulitalo just signed a 3year extension. He’s going nowhere.

This confirmed?

 

[Spence]

This confirmed?

Mulitalo stays loyal with three-year Sharks deal

New Zealand international Ronaldo Mulitalo will remain a proud one-club man after signing a three-year extension with the Sharks.

Stonestreet!

Stonestreet happy to be sitting in reserves ?

 

[WA Warrior]

Get on the blower and talk to his agent.
This is his last year I believe.

 

[SJ2k]

So Sharks can afford to re sign Multialo but the Knights garbage roster might need to shed cap? How some teams caps work seems crazy.

 

[WarriorsForever]

Anyone know where Remis Smith is these days? Would be an ideal signing at the moment

Great shout! Wouldn't break the bank either.

We just need any winger who has played more than 30 NRL games , has some pace and can tackle … that is better than the alternative , Kosi ( who Webster seems to rate.
Hopefully TT gets time on the wing as he is the best option , now that DWZ is out.

In England I think ???
