Young men, going to benefit more than anyone from a proper first grade off season

2. Sivo
3. Penisini
4. Gutho - Lomax if see Longi/Drown
5. Lomax - Simonsson if see Longi/Drown
6. Drown - Gutho if still injured
7. Moses
8. Ofahengaue
9. Hands
10. Matterson
11. Cartwright
12. Tuilagi
13. Hopgod

14. Lussick
15. Paulo
16. Lane
17. Moretti

18. Guymer

We’re definitely short edge forwards. Cartwright can do freakish things - unfortunately in both directions.
Tuilagi can be a great runner but there are definitely lacking parts of his game.
Then our bench coverage for them are Lane, Matterson & Moretti all of who are more middles.

 

[Lemon Squash]

I'd still be pretty shocked if Gutho doesn't start round 1 next year at FB. I do think naturally throughout 2025 the transition to Iongi will happen though.

14 would be Guthos next best suitable position imo but the dude just won our player of the year again, it just feels potentially counter-productive not having him on the field for the 80. I don't love him in the centres full time, I don't think he's athletic enough. Playing a loose forward sort of role I think would be great from an attacking point but I don't know how we would handle the defensive load.

Anyways that's Big Jase's call... I'm sure it will all play out over the off-season.

Or at least top 30/development contracts.

 

[Eel candy]

Total random guess....wonder if it's Reed from the dragons........

sorry for the late response. Phones haven’t stopped ringing!!!!


sorry can’t say who, but it’s isn’t a dragons player.

 

[Eel candy]

@Eel candy wouldn’t happen to be a half & hooker from the Tigers??

No it isn’t.

Is it a former Eel who moved East?

Gutho to lock period! That's the scoop of the day.

 

[Twizzle]

into the ocean ?

 

[84 Baby]

Unless you are going to start Hopgood at prop, I don’t get starting Gutherson at lock.

 

[Noise]

Gutherson will probably start the season in the centres or 6 (pending browns recovery). I reckon he then moves to 14 covering the backs, spine and lock. Kind of like a Connor Watson, Dylan Walker role.

Who’s playing in backs with Gutho at 14? I couldn’t be f**ked looking if you did list

 

[Noise]

If no more signings:
Longi
Sivo
Penisini
Lomax
Simonssen
But also happy for Gutho to stay at centre and Lomax to wing.

 

[Obscene Assassin]

into the ocean ?

AFAIK Ocean is still with the club, he's also a prop

 

[Delboy]

The junior SOO half who didn’t want to leave but waited and waited for an offer from a much too busy recruitment team who believed he wouldn’t leave and would get around to it ( he won junior player of the year in the Parra district) , then were amazed when Roosters pounced as nothing came from the Eels. Surprise factor ?
