Some bastard resurrected them
Yep, Penisni is built to take that second tackle run after JAC has fielded the opposition kick. He also previously has shown some attacking skills that imo aren't evident in the way he's playing (or seeking to get involved with or pass to those around him) this season.
Yep, I think after four weeks we should put him at right centre and move Lomax to wing. They can swap during the game if they want, might make it easier for Penisini to adapt to the new skill of sliding...
Yep, we could do worse than that. For his so called/hyped leadership skills, Penisini should be leading the charge to learn and adapt to this sliding, which seems to have him baffled (at least on the left). But what I'm seeing so far this season is the opposite of engagement and effort to learn, which is a worry.
They are just no longer allowed to be reported, due to media/fan backlash.
Never is a big word for our new chairman. How can he speak for future administrations?‘Never again’: Eels vow to end contract clauses that could cost them Brown, Moses
Superstar halves Dylan Brown and Mitchell Moses will be the last Parramatta players ever to have player options in their favour, according to the new Eels chairman.www.smh.com.au
...players who aren’t off contract - and any who are off contract but have unreported POs which they themselves can trigger to stay - will still be free to not try their hardest because they already have job security for one or more years.
He runs hard and I reckon could run those 2nd rower lines and decoys.

The contract clauses didn't cost them those players. We re-signed them with those clauses. So they did the opposite of costing us Brown and Moses. Therefore I can't really take this quality piece of rugby league journalism as gospel if they don't even know how a PO works, or what it's used for.‘Never again’: Eels vow to end contract clauses that could cost them Brown, Moses

And now they won't be reported by the media (including NRL.com) he doesn't even have to stick to his own promise (to a bunch of angry fans). If a future signing will only happen (or only be affordable) with a PO, the club is free to do it.
If they're going to stop trying because they have a guaranteed contract for another year, they won't be worth much for future contracts. Clubs don't only look at a player's current form when making offers, they look at past performance as well.
POs aside, for decades we've seem blokes who play out of their skin for one year - their "off contract year' - and then be a pale shell of themselves until off contract year rolls around again. We've still got a few of them running around in our colours (some who happen to have triggered POs)!
He needs to turn it around ASAP.
Did you mean this?
arramatta EelsBrown was granted a release from the Warriors on compassionate grounds to be closer to his children. The move has given a young Eels squad valuable experience as well as a player who can play virtually every position.
