Yeah ECW on wing i reckon, pretty much a straight swap. Less sure how 1, 6,7 and JC works once everyone's fit.

Well that sent a cold shiver down my spine...Let's hope the new lad can actually catch a ball.

I watched the podcast with Langley this morning. I think it could well be him. He's a good communicator and has done a decent apprenticeship. Matt Peat has shown you don't need a big name if you're groomed correctly into the position.

I'm not sure how long he has had coaching in RL, but if it is only this coming season, then I would prefer for him to remain as assistant a little longer before potentially giving him the role.

He looks a strong player.
If he can make the yards early and be in the right place to score I'm happy with that.

Only one year I think ? So that suits us

I think Wane will replace Arthur if he goes.

I would say Rowley without a doubt. However, i'm hoping Arthur stays another couple of years, he's only really just got going.. would be a big blow.

IMO Brad will only be here for the 2025 season,I'm not a poker player,but if i was, then he's definitely going home at the end of this season without a doubt.
The clues are there for all to see,Like his family moving back and forth from Oz to the UK, He also hasn't seen his 2 boys for almost a year now

Brad Arthur has been like breath of fresh air to our club and I believe that the attention to detail that he has put into place will definitely help our next coach (Paul Rowley?) or whoever is the next head coach to progress our club back to being capable of winning trophies

Arthur won't see the season out. He will be back in the NRL.

Arthur is just getting a wage until he gets an offer to return the NRL.

ECW signed to play wing I believe.

Last winger to sign from Tweed Head Seagulls, none other than the club legend Joe Vickery.

Probably got him on the cheap as he hasn't played a single NRL game.
