Eels release Kieran Foran

[I'm a loser baby...]

For the most part. However, you lost me with your theory on marrying cousins.

Well not if they're uggos, I thought that went without saying.

 

[Gary Gutful]

All my cousins are uggos.

Unless someone told him what was happening and the money was to shut up about it. Or he regularly gets paid to play badly and is very good at it.

Maybe he has a knack of being able to play badly whilst making it look like he's playing really well - and gets paid extra for it.

If it was against Cronulla or NSW I could see it might be worth paying someone to stop hogging the ball.

Are we allowed to say that we think Foran is a an overrated player and is not worth the $1.2 million that we paid for him?

Yes! I have been a fan of his but he has lost me very quickly. More trouble than he is worth.

 

[Noise]

Are we also allowed to say he is the worst signing in the history of the club?

I always thought we paid too much, now I hope he leaves and we get Hayne back for the same money and play him at 6 with Norman at 7 assuming Norman makes no further indiscretions.

Not yet. That award is currently held by Anthony Choc Watmough.

Posted almost a year to the day. From this thread.

I agree with both of you. As I have stated he will go down as the worst buy since Adam Dykes. He has had 2 good games in 13. Just not good enough. So far he has been Arthur's biggest mistake.

There were a queue of people in that thread lining up to shit bag him.

And they were proven 99.9% correct.

 

[EelsFan05]

Watmough was always a bad signing. Part of the Foran deal no doubt. I'm not giving up on Foran but I'm very worried.

 

[Gary Gutful]

I'd round it up to 100% mate.

 

[Avenger]

Disregard.

Surely we should only be paying Hayne less than the same money, given Jarryd has had a full two years away from the game?

Jarryd is untested at 6, and I don't believe a position in the halves would suit his body or his game. He works best from broken play, picking his moments rather than having constant ball ahndling responsibility. It would be an experiment - and an expensive one at that.

It's a big assumption with Norman imo... he has to get through his court case unscathed, and then face the reality that his asking price has dropped, and then be motivated to bring his best game.

We have a lot of questions around our future 6 and 7, and I don't think Hayne, Foran and Norman are necessarily solid answers.

Anything Hayne related just hooks you everytime, doesn't it? And always in a negative light, do you realise that? Anything that Suity posts is a close second.

[Gary Gutful]

Yeah!!!

...and the comic in your sig is shit!!!!

Hooks? What's the difference between "hooks" and "decides to give an alternative opinion"?

What I love is how some people seem to be "hooked" into getting upset and making personal comments as a result of my stated opinions everytime - playing the man instead of the ball...

For repsonding to people who choose to discuss the person who made a post, rather than what the person posted about? Ok then :sarcasm:

 

[phantom eel]

:lol: Yeah bebeh, big dog come to EAT!

 

[Avenger]

Come on phantom, Hayne is returning and you have to accept it. A bit like Jesus only sooner.
