    Rumours and Stuff

    That's the whole problem of paying him $800k plus. It's based on "hopefully", Ryles can transform him....that's too risky, As others have said, yes we are a last and need some better players (I don't think we need to many, but that's another discussion), but generally clubs struggle to get off...

    Fifita is obviously one of the best edge forwards when he is in form. And better then what he have. But paying him $800k plus is to big of a risk. Massive risk, we don't need to take! Hard pass, unless he is willing to take less!

    Round 10 TLT: Eels v Dolphins

    Sharks #22 played, Raiders #22 played Dragons #19 played, Manly #18 and 19 played, Dogs #22 and 21 played, Storm #21 played So out of 8 games this, Ryles has named a player #18-22, 6 times....

    Yep, I say there is pretty much no chance Walker is moved to hooker (unless Hopgood is injured too). He is too important as a "middle half" for us.

    Hopgood. Ryles actions has sort of indicated that. He used Hopgood last week to give Smith a break in the second half.

    Round 10 TLT: Eels v Dolphins

    Carty won't be picked in NRL season this year, unless there is a massive injury toll! He won't be here next year. I doubt KK is going to be dropped, Ryles has stuck with him from the beginning, he is hardly going to drop him when he is improving each week. Matterson, yeah I wouId pick...

    Rumours and Stuff

    I can understand the frustrations here, but we don't hear much about the clubs targets anymore. WouId be surprised if we don't sign a couple of decent top 17 options before next season. But we won't hear anything until it happens. See the Walker signing, not a whisper in the media until deal...

    Rumours and Stuff

    Not sure there is any indication we won't recruit a hooker or won't. It's quite possible we could. Lussick is off contract, Hands is only contract until end 2026, while Smith is development contract next year. We only have 1 top 30 hooker who wouldn't be on huge money, for next year. So we...

    I think it wouId work easily - see my post above.

    Rumours and Stuff

    Could easily put a hooker on the bench along with Walker. Could not be bothered going back beyond last game but think it's pretty similar...here are the mins for our 3 bench players other then Walker from this week Moretti - 21 Tuivaiti - 25 Samrani - 22 Not much at all to cover. Just means...

    Knock-on Effect NSW Cup - Eels Team

    Will Latu played 71 mins 16 runs for 135 m. 50 m post contact. 4 TB. Defence 96.3%, 26 tackles, 1 miss. Pretty decent first game back. Few more like that and could be in contention for a debut sometime this year.

    Yes, however we haven't played them.

    Rumours and Stuff

    interestingly it's round 10 next week and we have only played one side from outside the top 8, as of today. And we beat that side the dragons, without Moses. Last 2 games with Moses we have played top 8 sides, obviously beat the tigers and very competitive against the sharks (both equal 5th)...

    Watching offsiders for a laugh....Rowan Dean is mad, Dutton lost because he didn't commit to pulling out of the Paris agreement like Trump did....apparently that's the point he knew they would lose.... now the trio, discussing Libs didn't campaign like trump did.....which they should had

    Credit to Dutton, I may not like his politics, but it's tough to put so much time into something you believe in and lose....this is what makes our country great (like other democratic countries)..peacefully conceding...with a gracious speech! Accepting the result with dignity! credit to...

    Thats part of the policy they need to work out how to fix, if there is a will, there is a why... I remember when I was younger, there was some free dental scheme, which "nurses", did a lot of the stuff. Anyhow I reckon free dental is a policy that could win an election...
