Rumours and Stuff

[jason taylor]

There’s some whispers getting louder on social media in regards to us signing the Fox... interesting if this is to happen cause I know he was keen on the fullback role, don’t think he would get that here.
Interesting how our backline would look next year if MJ does miss the year and if we sign Ado Carr and now the signing of Opacic (who I believe will put some serious pressure on a starting position)

Storm want a player in return (seemed to be the stumbling block with the Tigers) so might suggest that we are offering the Storm Sivo or Fergo?

I like the Lussick signing. Handy backup hooker that we’ve been in need of. Has big game experience too having played n a super league GF and scored the winning try to get Salford into the Challenge Cup final. Can probably cover the halves at a pinch as well as a bench utility (played there in the juniors a little iirc)

Fergo to centre?

 

[Hindmarshisgod2]

FB claiming Parra have made a a huge play for JAC. Prob BS but anyone heard? Perhaps to play as a centre?

What's the point...... supercoach will just stifle his talent anyhow

 

[Hindmarshisgod2]

But seriously, I reckon they would back themselves on Sivo

A proper coach like Bellamy will turn sivo into the best winger in the game.

Another glass half full contribution mate? Perhaps we should just sign the worst players we can find?

To be honest, I don't really see the point in chasing this guy.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Good show. Get him and then decide where he plays I reckon. Lie to him if necessary

$200k plus $50k for every game he plays at fullback. Which will be none.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

He can, he’s a decent player and will probably crack our top 17. But hardly anything to get excited about.

If he’s our best purchase this off season
i can see us going backward last next season. Hope I’m wrong I usually am.

Backwards because we've replaced Evans with Papalii? It's the same f**ken team that ran third ffs. Except Drown and Mahoney will be a year older and better, and a couple of our forwards will have Origin experience. I suppose we'll be without Mennings.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

But, we're looking for our squad to be strengthened. Well, I thought that's the way we need to go if we want to win the unachievable title.

We're relying on improvement in Drown/Mahoney, plus improved familiarity between our players. Finally some stability.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Wasnt it Harrisons(edge forward who didnt work out ?) younger brother that wrecked himself?

Knee I think

I'd pass.

Well the rumour is Gennings is already going there, would he be enough?
Yeah I like all 3 signings, I think they add a class of depth we have been lacking

 

[Joely01]

Fergo to centre?

I reckon he would be a surprisingly good Centre actually

 

[yy_cheng]

Gibe them waqa

Where on Facebook? I cant find it.

 

[eels_fan]

Where on Facebook? I cant find it.

The main Eels supporters page. NRL rumours page and a couple others

 

[IFR33K]

Are you thinking of Blake Harrison, who had the water skiing accident?
I get confused between them as they both seem to be cases where we signed the older brother to get the more highly rated younger brother, and in both cases they were shit signings

Yep that’s who. I recall it was a water incident. What ever happened to him?

 

[hineyrulz]

And then there was the time we got the younger but shit Folau.

And the Shit Tamalolololololololo.

 

[hineyrulz]

I reckon he would be a surprisingly good Centre actually

Yeah i remember that awesome game against the Riff last year where he dropped about 80 balls at centre, he is awful at trying to catch a ball near the line in traffic which is why he has never made it as a centre. His form was down this yeah but he was horribly used, he is a winger and a winger only.

 

[hindy111]

Papali'i can play football. I can't see what your problem with his signing is?

I highly doubt he has seen much of him play.

 

[hineyrulz]

I highly doubt he has seen much of him play.

Never have, i don't watch RL at all.

Lucky i have all these great footy brains in here to compensate.
