Eels Negotiating With Carl Webb?

Received a phone call from a mate who said tomorrows Sunday Telegraph mentions Eels negotiating with Carl Webb....

If true, Carl would be an ideal replacement for Nathan Cayless... BUT.... it will require a master psychologist to bring the best out of Carl week in week out and Daniel Anderson would be that type of coach who will not take any bullsh*t from Carl while inspiring Carl to do what he is good at, at the best of his ability. Carl has a lot to prove, will come come reasonably cheap and if he pulls his head together (including diet) and trains according to Craig Knowles, Daniel Anderson & co's standards, Carl could be one of those late starters who finally pulls his sh*t together and be that indomitable FORCE up front.

We could end up with Carl Webb, Willie Mason and Mark Riddell. Parra are already on the back page of the paper nearly every day, with that lot in the same side we'd start grabbing the front page as well. Bloody hell, The Telegraph might as well give the club its own supplement.

Carl Webb?
I like bacon too Carl Webb I am.
Stop stealing my eggs Carl Webb I am.....

When you recruit Carl Webb, it can end only one way;
down the dunny.

If true we could get him, youd imagine Mannah takes over as starting prop, and Carl from the bench. The guy has got size and can be damaging on his day, as Casper says, if he pulls his finger out and gives it a crack hot go under DA and co, could be a brilliant buy

:lol::lol::lol:

It seems the psychology of Paul Osborne is.. "if I can do it, win a GF, then there must be other players out there who can do it too" and so Paul is searching out for those bargain basement players who have that special x quality buried deep away, almost forgotten about, waiting for Saint Paul to come along with his magic touch, turning frogs into scintillating princess in the backs and toads into GF winning forwards.

Is Paul John The Baptist reincarnated????

Webb isn't fit he is over weight.
Hayden Knowles will get him fit and the lure of training with Danny Green will make Webb want to come to Parra.
A fit Carl Webb is a very destructive Carl Webb.

Carl Webb would be a good training partner for Green, probably last longer then some of his recent fights. Webb is the type of player who could be as good as tallis but is playing like a C-grade footballer.
On small money he is worth the risk, never a trouble maker but just someone who expected things to come to him easy. If we get Maitua and Webb, that would be a cheap and experiance couple of backrower who could produce the goods or could be rubbish. These are the type of risks Melbourne took and if they become fruitful you could have a backrow of Hindy, Smith, Maitua, Webb and Horo which would not take cost alot of money (Webb could also come off the bench as a frontrower)

you just got to look at someone like Mason, had it on easy street at the roosters until a new coach wanted him out, nobody wanted him. Probably cowboys best player this year along with scott and bolton

Why can't Knowles get our current players such as Mateo fit?

Could be, would be, should be. For fu*k sake, the guy is poison and total lazy sh*t to boot. Jeez if you are going to take a risk, why wouldn't you go for John Mannah. We have absolutely lost it, me thinks.
