Alright is being generous!

At his best there's nothing he can't do. Good finisher, good go-forward, and jams in well in defence - he's just let down by his inside defenders, especially Loko.

He's even getting his confidence back - hasn't made an error since the Cowboys game, when he made two.

Very poor under the highball! I could handle Sio on one wing but the rest of the back line needs a lot of work. Morgan, Hopoate, a new winger, Sio and Loko to back row would be a good fix.

Apart from the Mole tweeting it last week, and the Article posted by Triple M about an hour ago - there hasn't been a single story in the press about it - here or over in the UK - So has he even heard the rumour......given there has been so little fanfare about it - and we all know the Telecrap loves a good Eels story (particularly when its an opportunity to kick Parra in the Balls) then I'd suggest Hock he hasn't.....
As for Ken Edwards Tweeting in response - maybe that is as far as it has gone.....

Please of course Hock would know what is being said....the whole rumour could've been quashed within 30 mins of being out there by the man himself....why hasn't he like Norman did numerous times up here?

Adam Blair to sign with Sharks ?

1. WTF ?
2. WTF ??

Yeh that is a strange signing.

They have awesome backrowers that would easily be ahead of him at the moment

Gallen
Graham
Lewis
Tupou
Bukuya

Unless he's there because Gallen and Lewis are becoming injury prone

So then they would go with something like

11. Tupou
12. Graham
13. Bukuya
15. Blair

Blair is a bench player imo

On our signings this Paul aiton rumour won't go away

On the other site someone tweeted to him if he is coming to the eels and he (Aiton) favourited it

Now I remember he was a good player and is still relatively young 27 so has a few years ahead of him. But my concern is if he will be up to it.

Anyone else think he will be coming to eels?

We do need a replacement for N Smith as well as Keating, so as a back up hooker to the first grade hooker Aiton would be a good pick up.

As I said though - there is not an iota of this being reported anywhere on the net - other than that article by Triple M, & whats been said in here / Tweeted by Mole. Nothing from the English Press at all - don't see how it isn't conceivable that he A) hadn't heard it, or b) Squashed it already, with English press deciding that it wasnt news worthy.

Anyway - it has been said by some in here - since I wrote that - that he has since killed the rumour (I think they quoted RLW?) - saying he has some issues, but is committed to coming.
