Go look at the Canberra Raiders post wishing him well. The Raiders fans will show you why we signed him.

He's done well in NRL this year. All round professional. Winning attitude. Won't stand for lazy crap poor attitude and will change that.

Not to mention the effect he will have on Moy, Barron, Martin. And even the younger ones in the academy.

Aiden Sezer confirmed by the club.

Hail Sezer

Re: Shopping list for 2025 : Thu Sep 12, 2024 5:15 pm  

Spine next year:

Sezer
Abdul
Rapana
Cust (hooker?)

Thought the sezer deal was off

Re: Shopping list for 2025 : Thu Sep 12, 2024 5:44 pm  

Wouldn’t be surprised with something like…

1. Rapana
6. Cust
7. Sezer
9. Borough
13. Asiata

Abdul as interchange 13, Asiata can’t do 80 minutes.

No way will or can Abdul play 13, he's not fit enough for a stint in the middle.

A Cust/sezer pairing at halfback is far better than an Abdul/Sezer pairing, Cust provides that running option whereas Abdul and Sezer are very similar players....wonder if it's too late to pull out of the Abdul deal and use that money elsewhere on a centre or forward

This is how I see it, Abdull and Sezer too similar both left sided and left footed players.

Re: Shopping list for 2025 : Thu Sep 12, 2024 6:19 pm  

A fit Abdul (I know) has a better running game than both of those.

He has already signed and is non quota, not sure how releasing him would help, no good having his cap money if there isn't a quality centre or forward to replace him with.
