Hello gentlemen, good to be back and looking forward to 2016 already!!!
Will be an interesting season I think.
I like the conversation about kerevi going to souths... If I was GPS I would be saying catch ya!! There is no real benefit to having someone like that as you may only get a few games.. If that out of them anyways...
GPS will be big improves with tucker now assisting in the coaching ranks.. Brothers will be strong again with a club legend now in the premier coaching ranks.
I do think the Tigers will struggle next season.. Sampson leaving will leave a large hole in the club which unfortunately may be to big to fill next year... I could be wrong... Have known to be once or twice..
My top 4:
1. Uni
2. Bond
3. GPS
4. Brothers
No sunnybank...

TrainerGB - any thoughts on all the chat and speculation about Norths? Will the Eagles break their 40 year premiership drought in 2016? I imagine you're looking forward to Round 1 at Crosby Park. Always love the Northside Derby.

Just a thought about Norths and the suggestion in this forum that an investor has injected funds into the club which will allow the club to pay players. I thought that QPR was designated as purely amateur when NRC was introduced. Am I correct or has this changed?

I hear the Norths players are being paid in rainbows and unicorns. Only time Norths are in contention for the cup is before the season starts. Lot of rumours at presents with not much supporting evidence but I guess that's the whole premise of this forum.

Filth - always a great day!!
It would be great if that happened, but I and many others would be very happy with a top 6 finish in 2016, top 4 in 2017 & 2018 and maybe the cheese in 2019.
Taking small steps every day, will eventually get us to the top.
Taking a big leap forward, will just have us stumbling back to the bottom.
Regarding the chat - just like Iron Mike Tyson said:
"Any publithity ith good publithity"
But seriously, a lot of the stuff being thrown around on here is quite amusing and very hard to not reply too
As per, it will just comes down to Round 1 and who runs out in their respective club jerseys.
Warhorse - I don't think there is regulation in the QPR legislation advising players cannot be paid? But I could be wrong... I was once before.
In saying that, please don't take that as admission that I am aware of any players being paid, or players coming to the club, or too much going on at the Nest.
I am on the outer this coming season through choice) as I retired... again.... again....

TGB will you be attending the meeting? Any chance you could report back on any truths or misgivings that have been mentioned on the forum (if they are brought up at the meeting).
I actually wouldn't mind going along but I'm afraid I'd be spotted for an impostor before I get out of the carpark.

Big Dog, highly likely I will be there, as I am as intrigued as most on here about what's going to happen or what is happening at the Northern Nest.
Regarding reporting back, as it is a public and open meeting for all potential 2016 Eagles, I cant see why I couldn't report what was discussed openly at the meeting.

On this, Can everyone provide 3 returning players from each club they are expecting a big season from in 2016. TGB players from the northern nest your looking forward to seeing in 2016?

My thoughts:
Kristian Satui will have another outstanding year in the 7 jersey. He worked really hard to get into the Prems side, and was consistently the best Eagle on the paddock for the latter part of the season.
Very surprised he didn't even get a look in for NRC. Although probably classed as too "small", he is pound for pound one of the toughest fellas I have seen. His half time full time vomit sessions are awesome!! He hates his body!
Garrath Ryan will be another one to look forward to watching again. Again, another Eagle overlooked for NRC, most likely due to his youth, but to play the type of football he has over the last 2 seasons, in the front row of all places (poor fella), he will get another rep jersey to add to his QLD 20s kit next year if he keeps going the way he is.
Veresa Mataitini.... as per usual.
Hopefully the brand the Eagles play in 2016 will see him with the ball in hand as much as possible.
Has had a quiet couple of seasons with a few niggles, but looks fit and strong in the offseason. Has been working hard in the gym and should also be NRC next year.

Looks like James O'Connor has played his one and only game for the brethren.

Logan preparing a plan to gain entry to Premier Grade, part of this will include a bid to join reserve grade for 2016, spend a couple of season in reserve grades, assess and then potentially join Premier Grade the following year.

Logan would be an awesome edition to the competition. Two years ago or so, I think they managed to beat Brothers in the Doughty Shield with less teams, so the potential for depth is definitely there.
Logan being added to the comp would certainly take away players from Sunnybank, Souths and Uni.

Heard Sammy Grasso has come back to his old club. And that Tim Smith is staying at Sylvan Rd.
