Samson turned 25 late last year and now entering his sixth season.
What are your expectations for Samson in 2026 and what would be a good year for him?

Is this the last year of his crazy 3 year extension or is he still contracted into 2027?

Got him for 2027 as well, TK

Show something please Samson. I used to be a believer.

With the change in the ruck rules you'd think (hope) that they would favour him.
But his biggest liability is his around the ground work especially his marking. It's well.... crap, drops more than he takes. Throw in his lack of 2nd efforts and he remains up against it
Make or break this year and I've got no confidence "make" is going to come out on top

The Ruck will be our biggest positional watch this year.. If Nank goes down early for a number of weeks oh boy..

Other than the tap contest, which he is pushed out of like a child, he is useless.
Turns into a spectator immediately.

Not kidding, I would rather see the club play with the likes of Balta, Sims and Lefau in the ruck instead of playing Ryan.

Not to see him much

None

Surely one of the most outrageous 3 year extensions the club has handed out.

Reckon some may be surprised this season

He is 206cm tall and gets out marked by guys 30cm shorter. I would be flabbergasted if that has suddenly changed at the age of 25.
