Rumours and Stuff

[Avenger]

Speculating on Jake Arthur is pure lunacy. There is about a 5% chance he is even a good first grade halfback.

5% ? LOL. I'd put him in first grade now before Luke Brooks.

 

[Eelementary]

I'd rather keep Moses - but if he goes, we can do a lot worse than Adam Reynolds.

Reynolds' kicking game is superior, he is experienced, and a cool head under pressure.

I wouldn't hate the idea at all.

 

[Avenger]

Good on his feet and quite quick.

 

[The Phelan Folly]

Maybe Moses has been tapped up by someone with some coin up their arse and the club is aware? Reynolds is far and away the best option. We could defintaley do with his Fonzie.

 

[Gazzamatta]

Come on mate.

Moses has one good game a month and suddenly we will lose something. I have no issue if he stays at whatever his contract states but if he wants to negotiate anymore he can get f**ked.

I’d take Reynolds in a heartbeat for 2 years with Jake Arthur as his understudy. Moses knows that Jake will take his spot one day and is also exploring his options.

I heard on one of the footy talk shows over the weekend that Moses's manager/Mitch and Eels management have an agreement not to discuss his contract negotiations in the media like Guthos was. I reckon this is absolute speculation based on no info or it could be the Manager is going against his agreement and if thats the case the net result could be bad for Mitch.

Or our management is going against the agreement ... or there is no agreement

Definitely one of these things

I’d say Reynolds is our plan B and the best available half if Moses decides to chase slightly more money at a shit club (which I don’t think he’ll do).

i agree
nothing wrong with sounding out reynolds just in case moses leaves to all the whingers would you rather lose them both who do we sign then milford?

 

[Gazzamatta]

Mono Penrith Centre. Guilty 3 weeks.
Bradley next then Latrell.
My tip but The Chook and Bunny to be downgraded. Why? Because of who they play for.
I'm suspicious why Momo's case was heard first. Why? Because it would look bad to charge him if the other two get downgraded.

Reynolds' kicking may be on par or slightly better than Moses', but IMO would not complement Dylbags' game the way Moses does. And the little I've seen of Bushy Jnr, he also wouldn't complement Dylbags' game either. I think we need a half like Dylbags/Reynolds/Bushy Jnr (eventually) but not 2 of them at the same time in 6 and 7. Moses has that ability to break the line like a Wighton or Munster (admittedly not as consistently in Moses' case). Reynolds, Dylbags don't and I think you need that if your other half is a stock 6/7

Drown has speed and power. Have you already forgotten? Running the ball is what he does best.

Drown had speed and power. Have you already forgotten? Running the ball is what he does best.

Since teams have worked out he has no passing game his running game has turned into bog average hitups.

 

[Incorrect]

Might be better than his passing game and what he does 'best' at an individual level, but he's not real good at it. Moses is still a far greater threat with his running game than Dylbags. Maybe hell get it back, we'll see...

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I'd rather Moses over Reynolds but it may not be our call. If the Bunnies want to make room under their sombrero that is above his market value, we wont get into a bidding war.

BA jnr is about 2 years off NRL, assuming he makes the grade and at this stage that is an assumption, so we need about a 2 year option so if Reynolds is getting on he may be able to do a job but doesn't say GF winning combination halves to me, neither does signing a back up half.

Reynolds is not wanted at the Bunnies for a reason.

Could the reason be that they want to spend a lot of money retaining their other spine players and only need a cheap option at 7? With Mitchell in the team they don't even need to pay extra for a goalkicker at 7. They just need someone to play second fiddle to Walker.

Meanwhile if we decide we won't pay overs to keep Moses we will need to find a goalkicker. Reynolds fits the bill there too.

Good on his feet and quite quick.

Has defended well at centre in his limited games as well, and still young too. Only 22 this year.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Maybe Moses

*Mbye

We're going to him too early is all.

 

[Gary Gutful]

5% ? LOL. I'd put him in first grade now before Luke Brooks.

Agreed. There is a 2% chance that Brooks will turn into a decent half.

*Bye Bye Bye

Can't be much good if The Duke let him go.

Or they have a guy in under 20s they feel will be ready in 23
