EELS SEARCH FOR SEMI REPLACEMENT

North Queensland are in danger of losing yet another of their home-grown talents, with Parramatta circling winger Kyle Feldt.

Market Watch can reveal the Eels have cast their net in search of a winger and Feldt sits high on their list.

The loss of Feldt would be another blow for the Cowboys, who lose Kalyn Ponga to Newcastle next season and co-captain Matt Scott could join him.

Looking for a replacement for rugby-bound Semi Radradra next year, the Eels have formed an early shortlist.

While Feldt, who was in the frame for a Queensland Origin debut last year, is a major target, he’s not the only one in the mix to replace Radradra.

Wests Tigers flyer David Nofoaluma is also on the Eels’ radar for 2018.

A Campbelltown junior, Nofoaluma told foxsports.com.au earlier in the year that it will be difficult for the Tigers to keep all their locals with the likes of James Tedesco and Aaron Woods also off-contract.

“It’s contract time, what do you do? All you can do is play your best footy and take the best option possible,” Nofoaluma said.

“My focus is having a better season than last year, and that’s all I can ask for. What happens in the future happens.

“Of course (I’d like to stay). I started at the Tigers. But things come. I’d like to stay but let’s see what happens.”

Nofoaluma, 23, made his City Origin debut last year and averages a try every 1.8 NRL games.

Feldt, 25, is a premiership winner who can goal kick. He averages a try every 1.3 NRL games.

Two bit from this article ...


Quiet Eels

Oh Parramatta, how much we'll miss your leaking ways. In an attempt to avoid history repeating itself, the Eels have moved to silence their newly appointed board, gagging them from speaking to the media. Under the club's policy to its new board members, they are prohibited from speaking to the media without consent.


Parra eyeing Lolohea

The Parramatta Eels are keeping a close eye on what happens across the ditch between Tuimoala Lolohea and the New Zealand Warriors. Kieran Foran's arrival means Lolohea looks like being wasted on the wing for the Warriors and the Eels are ready to pounce should frustrations over his role in the team boil over. Parramatta has plenty of cash to spend and aren't shy about letting players know it.

Nah Edwards is just unlucky enough to play for Parra, dogs or Broncos on the other hand.......

Which players from those clubs have been found guilty of an offence related to domestic violence?

Edwards is going to cop a lengthy suspension. His public nuisance charge also involved violence, and he was apparently on his 'last chance' before the sample swapping palaver.

PARRAMATTA forward Kenny Edwards was already on his final warning from the NRL when he was caught in the Eels’ urine sample switch scandal.

Edwards faces a nine-month ban — but is lucky his playing contract hasn’t been torn up — after impersonating Eels teammate Kaysa Pritchard during an NRL sanctioned pre-season drug test on February 24.

The 25-year-old’s behaviour was already being heavily scrutinised after he drunkenly punched a fan during a night out on the Gold Coast last year.

The Daily Telegraph can reveal at the time former NRL chief operating officer Jim Doyle told Edwards, who is contracted to the Eels until the end of 2017, he would be kicked out of rugby league for good if he reoffended.

“If Jim Doyle was still the chief operating officer, Kenny Edwards would be finished in rugby league,” a source close to the Eels said.

He'd get murdered in defence out wide, he's a middle forward these days IMO.

I'd say with Edwards out of the team he will be the bench edge forward now. I don't see Brown, Alvaro or O'Brien playing that role.

Why would a team play 4 middle forwards on the bench?

also from that article

Guess who, too?

Which NRL club boss was more than an hour late to the chief executive conference in Auckland this month because he "slept in"? It's the same club boss who fell asleep at a previous chief executive meeting.

cut him some slack

he was shitfaced
