Eels Intrested of Luring Ryan Back

[Stagger eel]

tbh i wouldn't want to see us go too hard for ryan .... nice guy, has been a good player - but he ain't getting any younger - i think his best is behind him tbh

oh my god...we almost had the same thought at the same time :shock:

we r like twins!

I'm better looking though..

 

[strider]

of course

Whose the other back-rower we have coming off contract at the end of next season?
Chad Robinson, Daniel Wagon and...??
I personally think Hauraki is going to cement himself a starting position very soon...

Hauraki is also off contract.

just because hindy and ryan are aproaching 3o doesnt mean they arn't going to perform for us. infact we might be able to get ryan cheaper. the idea of having 2 statesmen, with origin and international experiance is a huge turn on for me.

He's got the (c) next to his name over there at the Dogs. I can't see him walking away from them. After all, they can afford to pay him far more than we can ATM.

Couple of years ago, Steven Price had a (c) next to his name and walked away from the bulldogs, i would not dismiss it. Who would have ever dreamt theat Mason would play for another team, stranger things have happened.

 

[Pazza]

Plus i think Ryan sill has a good relationship with many of the eels players. If things are as sh*t as Mason says they are at the dogs then i can't see why Andy wouldn't want to come home.

 

[strider]

yeah Price left - but he got paid a tonne to do it and NZ broke the rules in doing so

That's what they said about Ian Hindmarsh.

We also more than likely have Wags leaving at the end of the year. Considering he only signed a one year deal.

 

[strider]

yeah but ian hindy only cost 3 meat pies and a beer each game - i reckon bobcat might be wanting a bit more (unless it really is a hell hole at the dogs atm - which would be really cool)

 

[Smartman]

More media garbage.

That being said, hes achieved everything there is in the game. He might enjoy a big pay packet from the eels.

 

[Pazza]

Ryan doesn't seem like a boy who's money hungry

 

[Pazza]

as for a mouth watering '09 pack

It was also reported that former hardman Craig Smith has joined our coaching staff to look after our forwards much the same way as Joey doing his thing with the halves.

Eela or anyone else know when Johns is coming on board and wil he be working with Parra exclusively and does the same go for Craig Smith will he be attached to just us and no other clubs?

Joey will be working 1 maybe 2 days a fortnight, he'll be involved with 2 other clubs, Canterbury and Newcastle so he's actually a consultant rather than a contracted employee at the club.

Not sure about Craig Smith only that it may be a similar deal to joeys, Smith I believe has a business in Wollongong so he's definitely not going to work for the club fulltime.

Darryl Halligan's the same.

So he is definately a consultant for Canterbury?

Heard Folkes and Moore were talking to him.

I'm pretty sure he's agreed to help you guys out.
