By the sounds of both Lett's and Inu's answers, they seem to have hit it off well and like each other (of course if they are not taking the piss out of each other and are serious, i assume they hate each other)

Because Colonel, I think a lot of people have often questioned Eric's committment, and whether or not this is really what he wants to do. When I read these:



I just think, sure, I know he is probably mainly taking the piss, but in the back of my mind I think....does he really think that? Could well do, and it's a reason why he may never become the player he should.

I would have thought the one event he'd be looking forward to was a grand final win.....

Methinks you think too much......

Mick Vella Is Gone

There is generally a common theme amongst the senior players in years past. They are given a piece of paper and throw down a few answers as they've answered so often..... ;-)

Yeah taking it the wrong way Fish. I bet they were all sitting around in the change rooms having a ball with Kelly answering his profile questions.

i think they've known each other for a while, both about same age and grew up in Campbelltown.

Jeremy Latimore is taller and about the same weight. The young Blackburn kid from Penrith is of a similar build as well.

Fish, you've probably taken it the wrong way, coz I have actually been impressed by some of the comments saying that they would change Eric's enthusiam at training.. Sounds like he is ready for a bumper year.

Also love the fact that altho the new boys have only been here for a few weeks the little sledges at each other are already there. Showing a great team spirit there!!

Eric is so laid back that his commitment will prob always be questioned... but unless any of us see him with a lack of commitment I don't think a response on a profile should be taken as an indicator by any means

Ahhh Nikki ! That's what I first thought but then I thought they were probably being sarcastic !!

If he performs consistantlyu it wont be.

I thought for much of last season he was average.

I honestly doonnt think he has developed into the shadow of the player hhe could be.

He frustrates the hell ot of me.

well he played SOO - so he can't have done too bad - I think he was over shadowed by boy wonder jarryd hayne .... I was happy eric cleaned up alot of his silly brain explosion passes etc .... I think its just in his genes - by all accounts his old man was worse in the attitude department :lol: - but still an absolute legend!

I knew I'd be in for it if I dared say something about Eric. :roll:

Perhaps every player is taking the piss except Brett Finch. Must be new boy syndrome.
