Knock-on Effect NSW Cup - Eels Team

[Delboy]

With Volkman in the club (and Joash), it does beg the question whether we need to go external for a Brown replacement. Add in the juniors we have in the halves who will possibly be ready for 27/28 and we actually arent that bad off in reality.

Better using Brown's money for another "9", another outside back and some forwards.

We don’t just have Dylbros money - Offa , Cartwright, and would think a fair bit of room from those that left at the basically the beginning of the season. You can hazard a guess how much we have to spend, even allowing for some upgrades it will reasonably poor management if there is not close $3 million available for,new contracts.
Doesn’t look like Lane and maybe Matto will be here as well.

Unless someone better comes up we probably don't need to. Although it was only 1 game having a half on that left side actually giving a damn made a huge difference to the attack. Despite it only being the titans Gideon looked like a completely different player. There was shape on the left, we ran actual plays like with Junior doing a hit and spin to pass to the half.

There's probably 2 things Joash lacks in attack and that's a long kicking game and a cut out pass. I'm sure he'll work on those abilities if he has to

Don’t forget Hunter. Saw the highlights. He goes well.

@MarkInTheStands thoughts?

Yep, he's one of the young ones I was thinking of for 27/28.

Yeah, I think ( I could be wrong because I am stupid) but Hunter was on of those playing flegg last year that were looking to make the move up.

He is still eligible for Flegg this year.

Sure mate, but surely not NRL ready in 2026 unless he is Galvinesque.
