Rumours and Stuff

[Happy MEel]

We were approximately 2-3 odd foot of grunts short.

That’s not many grunts at all. WTF is trolley boy being paid for?

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Watmough won 172 NRL games in his career. Hayne has won less than a hundred. Zero spoons to 3.

It might be coincidence, but the weight of evidence points to Watmough being a superior professional and competitor. Despite having far less talent than Hayne.

That's little more than evidence that they played for different teams.

This is what happens when you don’t offer overs. Or at least don’t offer overs enough.

If every club only offers what a player is worth he’ll make his decision based on other factors.

Hindmarsh played for the same club as Hayne but has won only one less game than Watmough.

It’s all a bit big to be coincidence.

Then Hindmarsh must be a good leader?

Best leader since the Pied Piper.

Looks like the wheels fell off at the last minute.

Multi year contract? Here we go again.

What could go wrong???

At least Burgess isn’t nearly 40.

No-one gets signed because they dont want to come to the club - merkins whinge.

We target who we can afford and who will come to the club - merkins whinge.

All of you f**ken armchair critics think it is easy and that you could do a better job but you'd be complete plop if you were in charge. Plop!

I wouldnt be suprised if lots of players get linked with eels. Everyone knows we had 200-300k spare then saved about 600k from Norman so we would have close to a million dollars.
Easy bait for guys wanting to get a bit more for next contract. We had Eels offer us........

I do not see us buying a prop unless we released one this year. It is one area we seem ok at.

Alvaro
Jnr
Mannah
Terepo
Evans
Kafusi
Stefano
Brown
Tepai


I reckon theyl want to blood Stefano and Kafusi this season. And well then we'd have 3 guys over 115kgs boppers for 2020 with Jnr. Unsure we want 4.
And by all reports Alvaro is around 115kgs. We'd be short workers.

Thanks Braith Anasta.

Back to you in the commentary box Eelo.

Thanks Tonygutful. Can you give us an update on the pitch condition? Use your flip key so we can get an idea.

There's a big difference between a captain and a leader, unless your name was James Cook, as an example. He was both. When you can lead and captain over 90 whinging pommies on a ship for over two years into the unknown then that's a real test of anyone's mettle. I don't think we have either a true leader or captain on the field, yet.

Are you suggesting we sign James Cook?

The Parramatta Eels are delighted to announce the signing of the English prop, James Cook. He's an above average captain, leader and outstanding rower.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Then Hindmarsh must be a good leader?

It’s likely, given his record at least. Though I’m sus about anyone who plays 300+ games without winning a premiership.

Hopefully he can navigate us up shit creek.
