Rumours and Stuff

Anyone else worried that our pack will be too big?

Injury recovery is the only time you can do the weight change midseason

I agree. Was just adding to your comment to go against those claiming that the weight gain wasn't an idea of those already at the club

If we lose a few games in a row no doubt the chicken littles will point to that saying it's the only reason

Yeah. Just thought I'd get in before them.

He had a plan for playing smaller. Sounds fine in theory but in practice it was dismal

It worked the previous two years. And in 2018 we brought in Tony Williams, who was carving up until he got injured.

Evans said at the start of last season that they wanted him to get bigger. But upper body isn’t easy to train when you’ve only got one good arm.

 

[Avenger]

BA only likes signing players with pre existing injuries.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Or are they the only ones we can afford?

Less demand = lower cost

Terepo,Manu,Brown,Gower,Niakuore, Stone,Taka are small forwards so balance is fine

Its why Jack Newton never really developed good upper body strength.

Based on your posts and the number of people with similar ideas, I'd say the GC runs a distant second to the LU Eels forum

Unlike your ideas where we won the wooden spoon ay? You praised our team selected for the first game whereas I called it for what it was, a 'poor team'. Keep raving on happy to hear your own voice.

 

[Glenneel]

Every man and his dog identified our lack of size last preseason.

Everyone except Bazal apparently.

 

[Glenneel]

And Kane Evans? He's just the same as last year.

Pencil legs

FFS, now our forwards are too big and too small!

Lol.

Did I win the spoon, did I?

f**king cucumber.

can someone analyse this photo like we analysed the goal-kicking photo last week? Why is Nathan Brown doing a front-flip? or is it a backflip?

Yeah if we could grab Ah Mau and Paulo, and sign a big youngster to a cheap-ish deal like Emry Pere or bring back Tui I'd be very happy. Then have a big dip at NAS next season.

Boyd for the right price would be ok, but honestly someone more desperate will spend on him what we've spent on Paulo

I think it's about the same....

I think we've had the balance one or two players off being right for a long time now.

I don't even think we desperately need a quality second rower. We've got a good back row, especially if T-Rex can find some consistency. Hooker should be number one priority IMO, and replacing Terepo/Matagi with an attacking prop.

Paulo returning would be very nice. But he'd have to drop about 10kg.

And that's just the first page or two of a 15 page search.

if you're gonna talk shit, stick to talking shit that can't be disproven, f**k-face

Carving up lol.

Yeah I was just trying to wrap it up in a nice bow
