Rumoured Signings and Even More Crap X

[Etu Uaisele]

It's funny you should say that....I've heard the name Roy Asatasi thrown around in some circles, which is puzzling given our front row depth

I thought Roy had already signed a super league contract .

Fui is still holding his own in first grade. Keep in mind he hasn't really had any major injuries, and he only has been playing first grade since he was about 25 so his body is probably a lot fresher than most players his age.

Trouble is Roy only signs 5 year deals.

And only manages about 20 games in that time.

Better average than Willie Tonga.

Debatable with the way he runs the ball. Nonetheless his form has been tenfold better than the majority of the squad.

If we didnt have a crack at signing him i would be filthy ! Quality player

Why???...he was dropped before Graham and Kasiano were back. Don't need any more cast offs.

TWO of Parramatta's unwanted players - Ben Smith and Matt Keating - were already considering moves elsewhere when given their marching orders on Wednesday.

Smith has been contemplating retirement or a move to England after spending much of the season in NSW Cup. And Keating could make a surprise move to Brisbane, with former Eels coach Stephen Kearney - now an assistant at the Broncos - speaking to the hooker about a move north.

i'd be over the moon if that happened

 

[Eels Dude]

It's about time Kearney did something good for the club, hope he can take a few more of his favourites of our hands.

 

[Etu Uaisele]

I've heard that Kearney has offered him a state of the art hydration program and a muzzle for his mutt .

This article says we're chasing Adam Blair.

Would be a f**king awesome signing. He is in pretty ordinary form at the moment and not deserving his massive pay check, but he earned that massive pay check by being one of the best forwards in the world.

Anyone who can play both prop and edge forward at an elite level is worth big money, and with us having nothing to lose we can afford to take risks on players.

Blair has the ability; he just needs the right motivation.

Depends on how much the Tigers are willling to pay for him.

 

[Utey]

Yep, I'd expect the Tiges to pick up a whole chunk of his paycheck!

 

[IFR33K]

Pass on Blair.

Regardless of where he can and can't play, this guy has no heart.

Several weeks ago for wests, after playing the 80 minutes, his missed tackle count was more than his hit ups.

We are getting rid of the pea hearts, why are we interested in the captain of them??

 

[Pazza]

Adam Blair?

no way! He aint much chop!

Blair should be classified as one of those players that is "only capable of performing in the Storm system". He has a few friends with that one.

Or we could take him on board and be confident in in our ability to create a club as strong as the Storm.

Or is that too much positive thinking from an eels fan?

That is way too much positive thinking.

 

[The Phelan Folly]

Adam Blair for 350k would be awesome.

The "Storm System" is Bellamy, Slater, Cronk and Smith. You can be as positive as you like, we dont have any of them.

Ken Edwards has been on twitter this morning. When asked a direct question on Blair he said he wouldnt comment on player signings. Take it as gospel from his previous tweets and denying immediately all player rumuours if untrue that we are definately chasing Adam Blair.

Dear oh dear oh dear... :crazy::crazy::crazy:

What's wrong with Blair? Hodges was good in Brisbane, average at Roosters and then even better as Brisbane!

Just seeing Blair for NZ should give any team hope that he is a good player if he comes to your team!

I'd take him on the discounted rate for sure!
