Eels Re-sign Emerging Young Talent

[Suitman]

Besides, not many Canberra fans care or remember that Steve jackson left Canberra afterhte 1989 Grand Final, only that he scored that wonderful Try. Williams - please do the same, seeing you are going to leave anyway!!!

If he does that, I'll forgive management.

Until next season.

Suity

not that many Canberra fans would have even known Steve Jackson until he scored that try. ;-)

Steve played State of Origin for Queensland after that Grand Final..and is now part of Rugby League folklore.
I bet if you ask Blocker Roach or Warren Ryan if they remember Jacko they'll let you know.

great news...
looks like we're letting Oake go then yer?

 

[Stagger eel]

a rebound reaction to losing williams,seems like hagan has opened the purse in case we lose another one.all too ucking late hagan.
cant see the forest for the trees.

that's ridiculous, the players that have signed a very talented players in their own right and I'd go as far as saying both Robo and Baumann have been more consistant than Williams has been all year, their work rate is far superior.

despite what you hear..there are other players in this club other than Williams.

Agree with you Stagger.

 

[Stagger eel]

Agree with you Stagger.

Hey! nice..no really man..that's nice.

 

[Gronk]

Hey! nice..no really man..that's nice.

Don't get used to it. ;-)

 

[Stagger eel]

Don't get used to it. ;-)

Hey man...you can only be cool once a week, all the best fo the rest of this week..;-)

 

[The Engineers Room]

happy, happy, joy, joy. 2 questions though, how long have they signed for? and Will they prove themselves to be as good as williams?

Williams has played two good games of NRL on the wing. They are not the same type of player and we need Baumann otherwise based on the Canberra NYC game KK will have no one to pass to.

 

[Pumba]

Tim Robinson is signed for the 2009 & 2010 seasons and Dave Baumann has been signed for the 2009 season.

 

[Avenger]

Has Oake been offered a contract ?

 

[PARRA_FAN]

I thought Oake was under contract, but either way Baumann and Robinson play a similar role to Oake and Chad Robinson.

 

[Hutchy86]

how similiar in playing styles is Tim to his older brother?
I see him playing a bit of front-row for the 20's... is he a big lad?

 

[PARRA_FAN]

He's fairly tall and big, about 105kg. Similar height to his brother, if not maybe a bit taller.

He's pretty strong when he takes it up.

Promising player, I think was in the Australian Schoolboys a few years back.

 

[Stagger eel]

yeah, I rate Tim very highly as a footballer a real potential hardman in the Peter Johnston mould.

 

[Hutchy86]

cheers mate...
hope to see him playing a bit of firsts next year

 

[Pazza]

im pretty sure at the start of the season in one of the league magazines, Hagan rated Tim Robinson as the best juniour prospect at the club.

I would not of known we had other young talent from yours and others early reaction to TW leaving, glad common sense has prevailed.

He also has a brain and knows that offloads and passing is a skill a front rower needs to have. He may not always pass it but at least he looks.
