    Simpson On Open Market

    Surely if Newcastle had the extra cash to make an offer for Lyon, they have sufficent lying around to re-sign Simpson?

    official PL side

    I realise you guys have a few guys coming back from injury like Milton and co, but this side on paper looks really strong for a ressies side with tonnes of first grade experience! Why are they so far down the ladder? Is it the coaching? And i guess what I am getting at is, is Fairleigh coming...

    Scott Hill update - SMH 6/7/06

    Sharks are losing Beau Scott to the Dragons i believe (not to mention Vagg's), so they will be pretty keen to pick up a centre or two.

    His skill makes me angry!

    F##k waiting till next year to.... We play Manly in a few weeks at Parra. Picture this. we score with about ten to go to lead by 14 with a kick to come. Game is won. As Piggy lines up the kick, & the other players disperse from their huddle on halfway, the crowd starts up with a bit of...

    Any word on Tahu's replacement

    He looked unfit and sluggish before he got injured, i would be worried about his fitness, which will effect his decision making in defence, which when playing Johns, is crucial. I wouldn't blame them for not blooding Inu in this game either as Johns will terrorise him. If either play...

    If Darren Lockyer didn't score that last try there was about 3 other QLD'er's linnig up to do so. NSW couldn't get near it. More desperation = More passion.

    His skill makes me angry!

    1. As long as he doesn't do a Gordon Tallis in his first game for Brisbane against Saints (ie. where he scored the winning try) 2. Do we no how the draw will work next year? I assume we don't play every team twice. I just hope we don't miss out on a home game v Manly or i will be filthy...

    Will Saturday night be the night of

    As for Timmy, each time the sides have played, a fair bit has been made of Smith v Johns (heir apparent v king). This time it hasn't been talked up, mainly because Tim has been out of form. I have a feeling (hope really) that with a chance to build on his improved effort last week, this is the...

    He made 9 kick returns to Tahu's 4 and Grothe's 1, so i am not sure how you can say he was looking to hand it off. He and Luke O'Donnell made more runs than anyone else in the team, and if you took out Eric's 95m intercept, he had more metres than anyone else in the side. He broke 8 tackles on...

    Will Saturday night be the night of

    It will be a massive test for our centres (who will be a potentially a relatively inexpereinced pair). They have to focus on their opponents and not get caught up in the Johns factor, or they will get caught out. I expect him to work them over. One thing that will be interesting to watch will...

    Origin 3 discussion thread

    I am a New South Welshman, and i was at the ground last night. Firslty, good luck to QLD. NSW played about 20 good minutes of attacking football in the whole series, there was no way they deserved to win last night or the series as a whole. NSW were a disorganised rabble and it really stood...

    I can't agree with that. I think Hodgosn had a great game up until that last play. It was a Lucas Neil moment, played great (near our best) then one lack of concentration moment at the death and it was good night. His tackle on Tate was close to the best tackle by a fullback you will ever see.

    Could this be Parramatta?

    This is not a crack at Jason Smith, he still has tonnes to offer, and i would be more than happy to see him back at the Eels. But does the fact that around 6 clubs have been linked with a 34 year old 5/8 a sign of the lack of quality play makers in the game? Some critics are saying the quality...

    Is there any truth to the Nate Myles Rumour

    I thought Myles was the best forward on the field last night in the last 20 minutes. I think he is best as an interchange forward and would be a very good get. but plenty would be interested i him, particularly the Roosters. You would think if Newcastle were going for Lyon and have now missed...

    Scott Hill update - SMH 6/7/06

    I agree. Pull out Morro's contract, delete the name "Glen Morrison", and replace it with Scott Hill. Give him the option to leave to the ESl in 2 years. It is a better negotiating tool than trying to compete dollar for dollar with ESL clubs. I would be happy with S.Hill signing. I would...

    Adam Peek

    My "source"... No seriously, i spoke to his grandad a few weeks back. He was thinking of calling it quits, but he really likes the club and has enjoyed his time here, so staying on hasn't been ruled out. I wouldn't be suprised to see him stay for another year, but then if he gets cash to go...

    Cap forces loyal Knight out

    Salary cap restrictions hey. Someone put a list up yesterday that they have about 7 guys off contract. Are they all going to miss out, or is Lowrie "expendable"?

    I don't know, I mean, when is Smith going to give Inu a go!.........

    MR :- News from the Eels Office

    I agree, we will have to wait and hope. Happy Blake & Wellar are staying, although a synic would say it would be nice if they had been locked up earlier. More will be needed though. fingers crossed....

    Todd Lowrie

    I am not confident about Hill and to be honest would have preferred Burns. Players like Mcalwain and Minichello are no better than O'Dwyer and Widders who we have lost. Myles, not much better than Morro (although younger). We need a prop, there are no first grade quality props left. Mark...
