Folau turns back on Eels to play rugby union

[ParraSteve]

Can't be mark warren we'd never be able to make him shut up

 

[El Diablo]

age, ability, potential, good under the high ball,

and tonga is past it.

two years starving in AFL won't have helped

hasn't done any tackling for a while either

I just hope he doesn't start "hand balling" his passes.

. For his part, Folau said he was yet to talk to any NRL clubs and Fairfax has been told it is not a done deal that he will join Parramatta

[ParraSteve]

As long as no hand balling on players is done

Reni Maitua didn't play for two years either. Didnt take him long to slot straight back in.

And how do you know he has starved himself? He was not exactly built prior to his AFL stint. Always been tall and skinny.

 

[EELICIT]

hes probably got a good kicking game now.

50m kicks for touch after penalties ?

Adam Hawse ‏@AdamHawse
@TheParraEels coach Ricky Stuart believes Izzy Folau will return to NRL a better player than when he left. All the latest at 5. #tennews

Danny Weidler ‏@Danny_Weidler
Just chatted with Ricky Stuart. He says @IzzyFolau wants to be an Eel. All the Izzy news tonight on Nine News 6pm.

I think Hawsie is telling fibs. Ricky told me that he thought Izzy was rubbish now and was only offering him a contract so keep John at the club.

Telecrap are saying $2.5m over 4 years. He better score a heap of f**king tries for that coin.

20 per year min or we get a pro-rata refund IMHO. I'd be a merkin CEO.

[parra pete]

Just spoke to a highly respected Sydney journalist and asked him re Folau.
"Certainty to join the Eels"..he replied.
Take it for what it is worth...just passing on the info he told me. Wasn't in confidence, so I have no trouble putting it on here.

That's only 625 k's a season.
I'm happy with that.

So he doesn't work for the telecrap I gather then and it wouldn't be Danny either

I reckon it wouldn't be to hard to get him a few decent third party deals to help out

That's what they have been working on to get him over the line, poster boy for the western area, just like in the AFL

 

[El Diablo]

do the AFL have posters up around Western Sydney with Folau on them?

would be embarrassing if they do
