Knock-on Effect NSW Cup - Eels Team

[Pazza]

He goes that hard that he emptys the tank every week. His minutes of full tempo are improving but SOO is another level. If he comes off the Qld bench for 20 it will be like 40 mins for most others. He would go even harder. Id love to see him on the Qld bench.

the kid has elite potential, but hes played like 20 FG games. QLD have Carrigan and Cotter atm vying for mins at 13. Bring hopgood into camp and give him a taste a see where hes at in 12 months.

Is it just me or Hopgood doesn’t look all that big ? He’s like Cam McInnes lock size vs those bigger locks like Matto, Carrigan etc ? Plays above his weight ?

Nah he's not big but you rly don't have to be to be a lock playing vlandy ball

 

[Pazza]

Plus you got a pack with rcg, paulo, lane, matto, Greig, Joe O etc even Cartwright and davey are pretty big. Some smaller forwards might help balance things out.

He's similar in size to Nathan Brown.

Can I be selfish and wish him to be selected as 20/19th player, train all week with them but released to play for the Eels ?

Nope

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Yep, and bigger than Murray and Radley

Yes he is small. Jake Turbo size but a bit thinner.

He was listed at 102kg when we bought him. That seems about right, and about average for a #13 in today's game.

Wonder if morretti will get a crack this week

 

[emjaycee]

My mail is that Toni is an outside chance as they might want him playing in better company to show his worth.

He made 190m, 67m post contact at propr. Absolutely he should get a go.

Smokin Joe gets a spot, somewhere.

I wonder if Hopgood might be the best option at second roe, even though he's not a second roe'er.

Forgot about him!

I guess it depends on the availability of murchie or doorey

You gotta reward form.

What happened to not weakening a spot to strengthen another with someone who played there once in NRL?

I think we lose a lot with Hoppa on the edge. In the 2nd half, he was hardly noticed.
