Rumours and Stuff

[Soren Lorenson]

I wonder if making Smith c is a goodbye present? Or has he re-signed and its a thankyou present? BTW did anyone else hear Sterlo say in commentary during the NQ game that he had never seen Will Smith play a bad game for the Eels? I spat out my beer.

 

[TheRam]

f**k me you talk some absolute shit. It reads to me blah blah blah sack the coach hes a useless merkin blah blah blah this merkin is f**ked that merkin is f**ked blah blah blah blistering pace is the answer blah blah

You aren't very bright, blah blah blah, are you folly?

 

[IFR33K]

Many ? Many also don't want Will Smith at the club ...

I have never seen Will Smith run a team well. He is best at off the cuff stuff. So would rather have him at FB or 5/8 if he is ©. Actually not even FB because he's played there in reggies a few times I saw him live this year and he can't run it back. At least Shrub can follow a game plan and do simple things like pass to the chest from first receiver. Freshy is all over the shop.

You’ve never seen him run a footy team well? Maybe you should email the coach and question him, why smith will be captain. Or maybe you think a captain only decides which way the team will run in the coin toss.

We could go smith 6 and brown 7 if that makes you happier.

if anyone happens to moses and jnr is selected at 7, I dare say it’s campaign over. PERIOD!

 

[TheRam]

Remember when massive fat merkins in the forwards were the answer? TheRam is constantly three or four years behind the modern game.

Yeah right, so that's why the team leading the comp has massive forwards and we also have massive forward and considered by many to have the best pack in the comp.

@Poupou Escobar always clueless about the modern game.

Stick to your stats buddy, at least that way you can fools some people some of the time.

Love how you always throw the word "fat" in your description so as to legitimize you incorrect and bogus claim, otherwise you just sound like the boofhead you are.

 

[hineyrulz]

I prefer Will Smith as the general.

General Smith sounds better than Pre School ArthurZzzzzzzzzz.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Hey Escobar. Thoughts on Titans at 7-1 to make the top 8?
They'd need raiders to lose which I think is 50-50.
Storm to win which I almost gaurantee. They won't want 2 losses before finals. That leaves a 23 point differential for the Titans to catch.
Its possible Storm put a cricket score on Sharks but id tip a 16-20 point win. The Titans won't have to do a lot from then.

I dunno

 

[Poupou Escobar]

There's quite a range between this and controlling the team.

Unsure what you are talking about TBH.

Yes agree, if Moses gets injured then we are toast in the finals.

I think he's implying that anyone other than Arthur replacing Moses would be business as usual.

 

[SneakyEel]

I'd say that the team will look like something like this:
1. Smith
2. Dunster
3. Waqa
4. Penisini
5. Fergo
6.D.Brown
7. Moses
8. RCG
9. Lussick
10. Kaufusi
11. Lane
12.Niukore
13. Cartwright
14. Hipgrave
15. Makatoka
16. Stone
17. Greig
Paulo, Ice, Gutho, N.Brown need the rest

 

[SneakyEel]

Also how good are Dunster and Penisini gonna be in a couple of years.

 

[IFR33K]

You said you’ve never seen smith run a footy team well. Are you aware BA has said smith will be made captain on Friday? Maybe u should email your concerns to BA. Maybe you think a captain only chooses in which direction to run in the coin toss. Will smith has improved as a player

Also, tbh I’ve never seen jnr run a team well. And I highly doubt you have too, considering the lack of footy he’s played this season.


I honestly didn’t think it was that hard to follow.

and for your last comment, if Moses gets injured jrn is the last player I’d expect to fill the void. I’d rather carty or smith in the halves.

A lovely goodbye gift. Id play him at 9 this week. Its his best position. Rest our only hooker.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

If Moses gets injured his responsibilities will be distributed throughout the spine, including some of his kicking duties staying with the new 7.

 

[hindy111]

BA said 7 or 8. One of the Halves will rest. J.Arthurs will play. Russel will play and I reckon Hollis may debut

Veteran winger to stay with Parramatta in 2022​

Blake Ferguson's two-try performance in the Eels' mighty upset over Melbourne may well have saved the veteran winger's career.

The 31-year-old flanker has had a mixed season, at one stage being dropped, and had yet to be offered a deal for 2022.

But Fergy is a proven big-game player - as he showed against the Storm - and his manager Sam Ayoub is hoping to strike a new arrangement soon.
I've spoken to Fergy this week and while other clubs may be an option, he prefers to stay with the Eels.

"I will let Sam do the talking for me," he said. "He's never disappointed me in contract years."

The Mole: Latrell Mitchell pays big price for Joey Manu hit

I'm really glad to hear that. Especially if it's only one year, there's currently no one better on the market for 22. The off-contract players in 2023 are way better options:
Xavier Coates, Nick Cotric, Sosefo Fifita, David Fusitu'a, Reuben Garrick, Morgan Harper, Patrick Herbert, Thomas Jenkins, Sione Katoa, Greg Marzhew, Ken Maumalo, Jayden Okunbor, Jordan Rapana, Jason Saab, Xavier Savage, Bailey Simonsson, Maika Sivo, Corey Thompson, Brian To'o, Daniel Tupou

So the headline says "Veteran Winger to stay ar Parramatta"

then, when you read the article

"and his manager Sam Ayoub is hoping to strike a new arrangement soon."

so in other words.....................nothing has been agreed

slow news day

Yep thought the same. Maybe it means that Fergo told Sam to get it done as he is no longer seeking overs.

That's probably it
