IMG’s remit and incentives are all around increasing revenue. That’s what they’ve been brought on to do and the grading system is part of them trying to do it. Hopefully, they’ve got one or two other arrows in their quiver but I’m starting to become a little dubious.

They’re not there to fix every problem. The RFL still exists and could act to reform/improve youth development. There are a lot of vested interests to overcome, of course. But, whatever, it’s outside IMG’s remit.

Sorry won't let me edit my post. He also made 170 meters, 3 line breaks and 3 try assist (although first one was very lucky). Shows good running and passing game in these highlights  https://www.nswrl.com.au/news/2025/03/08/the-knock-on-effect-nsw-cup-highlights--round-one---magpies-v-knights/ Hard to know the standard. Joe Lovodua played hooker against him.

This is how I see it, people seem to be just putting a name out there. One thing that looks certain now the ridiculous Brown deal has been confirmed this morning is that Pryce will be on the move end of the season. I think he’ll have a few interested over here and depends on how much he’s enjoying it over there might get a similar gig in Aus as a squad player. If he wants to move now that would give us a little bit of an advantage if we are actually interested. 

Wasn't totally sold by Pryce during his time at Huddersfield and was quite surprised he got an NRL deal, however its easy to forget he's still only 22 years old.

Certainly a talent and isn't much better around who don't count to quota.

The Brown deal is bonkers, he is good, but he will be highest paid player in SL and ne where near that, 4 better players at the storm than him for a start.

Think this thread has now reached the end based on its title so will lock it. For new signings and possible options for 2026 I've created a new topic.
