Knock-on Effect NSW Cup - Eels Team

[T.S Quint]

I had assumed Blacktown was working for them. Is it costing too much, less desirable for young recruits or they just want every merkin co-located?

Im guessing all their juniors and backups are getting sick of having to drive out to f**king Blacktown every time they have to play.

I thought they all were from Blacktown.

Hopefully we take them back as they are in our area.

I would assume that at least some of them would be from the Northern Beaches, and get sent out to play for Blacktown. They are Manly’s only reserve grade team, so if you’re not playing paying first grade that’s the only team you’re getting a game with if your contracted to them.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

That's true. Top thirty members lining up for Blacktown would have to go there to train with the team.

Blacktown in Penrith’s district. Workers is futher west than Blacktown City

Sounds like fun if you live on the beaches.

Every home game you have to travel all the way out to beautiful Blacktown.

Doesn't Gutho still live on the Northen Beaches and makes the trip to Kellyville?

Gutho is just made different.
He’s a Nothern Beaches man with a Western Suburbs mentality.

He also managed to negotiate for his driver to get a top 30 deal with us so he can sleep on the way home after training. Not sure how he'll manage if we get rid of Lussick

And now has the leg tatts to prove it!

"The Eels used 48 players this season and only 18 of those played over double-digit games."
