    Dylan Brown is overrated

    I don’t think it’s worth letting him go this year. He is still one of our best players and just needs to find some form. As for next year’s cap space, I’m sure a bunch of it went to signing Walker. The rest can be used to extend promising youngsters.

    Dylan Brown is overrated

    His cap space is an opportunity. That’s the way to look at it. I don’t think an NRL coach would see it any other way.

    Dylan Brown is overrated

    In the post match presser, Ryles indicated Drown wouldn’t be leaving early.

    The Swamp

    Lussick played in our Ball and NYC sides, and Smith played Flegg for us last year.

    The Swamp

    Those two got us into a grand final, along with Brown, Matterson, Paulo and Penisini. That's six. Today we had eight merkins from our pathways. Maybe we'd be going better if it was only two?

    Walker?

    The Swamp

    We brought Mahoney and Kaufusi through at the same time, from our #pathways. But like the Tigers have realised (but you seem to have forgotten), just because they come through your pathways doesn't mean you get to keep them on unders forever. Eventually they will chase the money.

    Well it worked. Not a single nepotism joke was made. You can lol without needing to touch your keyboard. Or at least, everyone else can. Is there anyone here who only posts facts? Besides yourself I mean. Is there such thing as an objective assessment? Are facts ever raised that weren't...

    Niukore isn't an Eels junior. His first game for us was in reserve grade. When the Warriors offered him big money he went home.

    Parramatta Eels Juniors

    You're the one who said they cost nothing on the cap if they don't activate their PO.

    JR's Wins until 20%

    f**k the stats, I'm going with the eye test.

    It's a fair point. Who cares if you have to overpay merkins when some of their contract is outside the cap! That's why the 2016 side was our best since 2005.

    Do you reckon we could've gotten Olakau'atu for the same price as either of those two? Supply and demand mean NOTHING in the NRL!

    At the cost of three straight spoons

    Lifetime Tigers players you reckon? Just like Tedesco, Moses, Fifita, Addo-Carr, Korobeite, Papenhuyzen, etc, etc, etc

    Does he look like a first grader to you? He looks good for his age, but I'm glad we're not paying him top 17 money yet. Dan Keir is outplaying him today. I am suggesting that every club needs backups on minimum salary, and if your youngsters want to be paid on how good they're going to be in...

    I was second guessing the trolls by mentioning the rOuSe HiLl RhInOs first. Clearly you felt targeted, which is your business. Well that's what we're talking about. Our pathways recruitment was suddenly limited to clubs from the local comp. Of course it's an opinion. It is an assessment...

    Those 20 year olds will be the reserve graders ffs. Except they will cost more than older reserve graders because they're getting paid on potential.

    We can keep any of these little mercenary merkins if we pay them enough.
