Folau turns back on Eels to play rugby union

[parra-matters]

NRL might use him in thier advertising in Sydney, be mad not to.

That's only 625 k's a season.
I'm happy with that.

Suity

Overs if he's on the wing in today's salary cap. Fair money if he plays centre. Obviously I'm not taking any consideration to third party sponsor deals.

He's an awesome winger, probably the best around, let's move him to the centres.

Just spoke to a highly respected Sydney journalist and asked him re Folau.
"Certainty to join the Eels"..he replied.
Take it for what it is worth...just passing on the info he told me. Wasn't in confidence, so I have no trouble putting it on here.

Good wingers are worth more to a side than centres these days. You can manage with an ordinary centre - but having an ordinary winger is suicide.

Just reported on radio that eels cannot fit him under the cap and are asking the NRL for dispensation.

Sorry, but if you can't fit a player under the cap then pay his less money or don't sign him.

no idea how reliable that is

I would rather a gun centre than winger. But that's me. Centre is probably the hardest position to defend in.

Everyone is going to have their own opinion though.

 

[Maroubra Eel]

He will sign if our offers decent. He's not all about the money you know.

 

[Bigfella]

In the centres would be a great target for sandow to kick to.

As long as its the right side only, Folau is less than terrible on the left hence the Broncos moved him outside Hodges to the wing.

 

[The EELiminator]

do the AFL have posters up around Western Sydney with Folau on them?

would be embarrassing if they do

i bet they don't anymore

 

[Craig Johnston]

i bet they don't anymore

bwahaaha

 

[El Diablo]

that's just an indoor stage

Ricky Stuart about to be on Triple M

 

[El Diablo]

[El Diablo]

not a fait accompli were his exact words

 

[El Diablo]

Ricky is liking his time at Parra and how keen everyone is

Danny Weidler Pete?

No...Phil Rothfield. He is coming through town on Sunday and wants to catch up.
Didn't say it was a scoop. Just posted what he told me. Who cares if you like it or not Jake..certainly not me...
