Eels Holden Cup Team and junior reps thread, Part II

[Obscene Assassin]

Twal actually looks a bit small to me. If course, this is compared to his monstrous 19 year old team mates.

I'd hazard a guess and say he's around 190cm tall and probably 105kg. He's not the biggest player on the field but this is without him training in the off-season and eating to get bigger.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I believe he weighs about 105kg but 190cm?!? I reckon he'd be a cunhtair over 180cm. Maybe I'm looking at the wrong bloke.

Yeh, that was my impression too. Maybe an arsehair rather than cunhtair. But frame looks like a bloke who can fill out. As long as he's not another Brendan Oake.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

The second coming of Josh Cordoba.

Here he is getting his U/18 NSW jersey handed to him by Josh Jackson and Dale Finucane. Jackson is billed at 181cm on the Dog's website whilst Finucane is billed at 188cm.

Good sponsorship opportunity for him. Though it would work better if it was his surname. And they had surnames on back of jerseys. But this way he has his first name on front of jersey. Except not really, just some numpty at HQ can't use spell check. What a cunhtair

Wow. He looks a lot shorter on the field.

He wore high heels to the jersey presentation.

 

[Bigfella]

Ram will be blowing up about the measurements especial if the club doesn't have 24 hour satellite technology constant updating to the website.

 

[oldmancraigy]

Twal is listed at 105, but i hear he is closer to 107kgs

Who is responsible for the official measurements??

Head Coach: Justin Holbrook

Clicky

Zach Dockar-Clay and Tyrell Fuimaono come back into the team for Dylan (Dyldam) Izzard and Jordan Muna. Otherwise it is the same team that pipped the Dogs.

 

[Tommy Coco]

This has to be the best 20s side so far this year right?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Not enough Goodall, Auckofolau, Tanginoa, Newbigging or Tepu-Smith.

Pauli or Moeroa either, obviously.

 

[Obscene Assassin]

It'd definitely one of the better teams we've put on the park this year but when you compare it to the round 3 team of 1. Nathan Davis 2. Fabian Goodall 3. John Folau 4. Eric Aukofolau 5. Halauafu Lavaka 6. Ryan Matterson 7. Zach Dockar-Clay 8. Tepai Tepu-Smith 9. Kaysa Pritchard 10. Fred Junior Mauala 11. Tepai Moeroa 12. Pauli Pauli 13. Josh Aloiai
Interchange: 14. Joey Lussick 15. Brandon Raeli 16. Jordan Muna 17. Eric Newbigging
If Moeroa comes back for the finals into that team and then bring in TTS, Muala, and Newbigging into that team named this week it'll be one of the strongest.

If we win on the weekend, we basically guarantee ourselves a top 4 finish

 

[Forty20]

The chase for the minor premiership is still very much alive as well. Not only to do have the head-to-head fixture against Newcastle in Rd.25 that will go a long way to settling the matter but our other two remaining games (Manly [11], Canberra [15]) are very winnable.

Newcastle on the other hand face Brisbane [3] and St. George [4], on top of playing us [2]. Obviously the Knights are a fantastic team (only 4 losses to their name thus far in 2014) but if you are ever going to drop another game or two it is with a run home like that.

 

[Joely01]

Very much still alive Forty, i think Knights will drop two games.

I see us taking out the minor premiership

 

[Obscene Assassin]

This is great for the club. It shows that we needed to put more focus on our younger players and finally employ a full-time NYC coach. Hopefully we can retain these players along with further players that shine in the Junior Representative teams and the NYC.

I'm stuck at work this evening so I won't be able to get out to Parra for the 20s. Sorry, merkins!
