[Stagger eel]

Any Parra supporer would tell you that we won't know who's playing until 6:30pm Saturday the 13th. The "mad scientist" will treat this one like a major semi and will play his usual ducks and drakes.

 

[PARRA_FAN]

Thats the most likely team theyll have next Saturday, except Armit should play on the bench. People seem to forget him, suddenly hes come from being the next best thing to the forgotten player.

But Armit's a good player, he's the next best thing.

 

[Hurriflatch]

fair call with Armit but who would you drop

Hopkins?
Thorman?
Tsoulos?
Vella?
Pearson?

Tsoulos would seem most logical but in Smith's "I want big forwards" mood the 120 kg Tsoulos beats that 105 kg Armit.

 

[Jic Jarrett]

Yeah Flatch, its a bit of a catch 22.

 

[PARRA_FAN]

Tsoulos would seem most logical but in Smith's "I want big forwards" mood the 120 kg Tsoulos beats that 105 kg Armit.

You dont need "big forwards" to win games, Armit is still big but is a good workhorse and deserves to be in the team. I'd say its gotta be between Pearson and Tsolous, or even Thorman.

Thorman hasnt been playing much with Parramatta, I'd say trial him in Premier League with a few games. Hopkins is a good utility off the bench.

 

[Jake the snake]

Would people stop talking about Thorman as if he was this great player which he is not. I saw him play in the 1st div trial and he did jack.

My team would be:

Burt
Grothe
Lyon
Vaeleki
Peterson
Dykes
Witt
Wagon
Hindmarsh
Cayless
Pearson
Moriss
Cannings

Hopkins
Vella
Armitt
Tsoulos

That's why you better off trialing him in Premier League to start off with, he hasnt got used to these conditions yet.

Look at Morley before he started off as a nobody, and now hes made a big impact on the Roosters.

 

[Jake the snake]

I would not be surprised If gruzka gets a run infront of brain explosion Peterson.

[PARRA_FAN]

No way Dykes will play halfback, i dont know Witt's done wrong.

 

[Hurriflatch]

the fact that Dykes has played HB in all 3 trials kinda leads me to beleive he'll be there + the fact he has been very good there picking up motm v WArriors and being one of the Eels better players v WEsts

 

[Maroubra Eel]

But what about Sykes?

[Hurriflatch]

I think Peek is out for the 1st couple of weeks with an injury could be wrong tho. thats why I didn't name him if he is fit then he will be in the 17.

 

[PJ Marshal]

Peek aparently is our fittest foward :? i thought Hindy would be by a mile
