Rumours and Stuff

Hi tom!!!

Lol at turbo tom.

Now He's overrated, most of his wraps come from the Johns Brother's who seem to have been grooming him for some time.

 

[JokerEel]

Yep, he's the only one in the supposed big 4 that even goes close to justify the money they were all chasing.

He should be the Australian fullback in the Anzac test, but we all know Mal will pick a QLDerper.

Cant believe I am about to say it but Boyd should be the Fullback in front of Tedesco....

Eels fans are not the best judges of talent (or board members) to be honest....................................

Hi tom!!!

Lol at turbo tom.

Joker Eel is on drugs if he thinks Turbo Tom is a better player than Tedesco.

Joker Eel is appropriately named.

Ones a drugs cheat... the other is just an ordinary one.

 

[Bazal]

He is overrated............................... For what he can actually do to what he is being paid and the media attention.

I would welcome him at the Eels But we have a better option at fullback.

Turbo Tom from Manly is also a better player then Tedesco what will he be worth next contract if Tedesco is going to be on 800+??

Tedesco is a better player than Trbojebrah.....

Tom Trbojevic has an enticing mix of elite size and athleticism so I can see why someone would rate him highly but for mine he has only really flashed moments of brilliance in the NRL so far. Can churn out the running metres for sure but if people are going to throw out the criticism of Teddy being a one-dimensional fullback then surely Turbo Tom should cop it too.

As it stands, Tedesco is the only fullback running around these days worthy of lacing the boots of prime Jarryd Hayne (factoring in that Slater spent the better part of two years out injured). That is as much a compliment to Teddy as it is a statement to how special Hayne's talents were in my opinion. Easily the most gifted player I have ever seen and if he were that much more motivated and/or the Eels weren't a basket case throughout his long tenure here then his rugby league legacy would be viewed very differently.

Billy Slater will go down as the best fullback of this generation and probably the modern game for the same, but opposite, reasons above though and that is fair enough. It will be bittersweet talking with all the young'uns about what could have been with Hayne when I become a crusty old bastard.

I hate Trbojevic with a passion as he is a Manly player and the Johns boys dont shut up about him But i think he has more strings to his bow so on and so forth with the Metaphors...

I hope Tedesco goes to the Roosters and develops his game 100% but he isnt worth the 850+ people say he should be getting just because he is the best player at the west tigers.....

I think its funny that since Avenger or whatever he is called on the other site now... mentioned he was the other big signing people are falling over to defend Tedesco on here... it cute...

 

[El Diablo]

It took 600k to figure out how they could reduce super scotty sewards transcript to point form and take out all the bits they didnt want people to see

Darrrrrrrriwus lol, he's a more then capable fullback and with some ball playing skills but he doesn't come close to what Teddy provides from the back.

Poor bastard has always played in a junk team, put him at a strong team like the Broncos and he would go to another level.

He's been into Joey's stash.

 

[chiefy1]

Alvaro needs to king hit somebody.
Alvaro needs the cattle dog call. Why isn't Alvaro on the angry pills ?

Chiefy, are you having a conversation that nobody else knows about?

 

[T.S Quint]

You cut out his running game what does he have? Cant kick or Pass Whats the value in him?

That's just ridiculous.
You can't just disregard his running game just because it suits your argument.
Do you disregard Billy Slater's running game too? Because Teddy has a better kicking and passing game than he does.

Why don't we just cut out every player's best attribute when deciding if they are a good player or not. That Taumololo is f**king hopeless...if you cut out his running game.

Fair call re: Slater and Hayne.

I won't have as much of a problem telling the young'uns why Slater was judged the better fullback. He has a range of leadership qualities and a hard work ethic that is much more impressive and admirable than Hayne who is just a lazy, albeit talented, merkin.

If you cut out the fact that you are making a lot of sense, then I'm inclined to disagree with you.
