Rumours and Stuff

I'm sure his knee will be healed by the time he arrives. Pre-season doesn't start for about eight months.

But how long will he last? I rate him but this injury shows we need to give more thought to depth.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

But how long will he last?

We don't know. That's the risk of signing older players. I'm sure it's reflected in the price. I'm sure the player and club both know how old he is.

For what it's worth, we don't know how Mahoney or anyone else in our team will go with injury this year. There's a risk with any player.

 

[TheCrowe]

All fair points but my prime concern is depth for 23. We need to wait for a diagnosis and maybe its minor but an accumulation of knee injuries adds to our risk. I hope he is fine and has a blinder for us next season. But if he goes down we have Hands and Yates at this point if Rein is not re-signed.

 

[Gazzamatta]

Rein went well today as did Hands in limited minutes.

There's still plenty of top 30 spots empty for next year. Don't worry about depth just yet.

 

[TheCrowe]

Also true which is why I asked about Tyson Smoothy....

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I reckon we're likely to retain the Rein Plein.

What should we worry about instead?

On less money I hope cause players get cheaper as they age. Or so Im told.

 

[Avenger]

Mitch Rein is no bum.

Not f**ken SHITTING OURSELVES against the Titans tomorrow!

Depends if the demand drops. Do you think it will?

 

[The Predictor]

I thought Cini went okay, he is quite deceptive, made a couple of mistakes, in general though he was good, I think will prove a smart buy!

ignore the mullet

 

[The Predictor]

Hodgson will be a mentor for the young fella’s, smart purchase

 

[Noise]

Hodgson will be a mentor for the young fella’s, smart purchase

Which young fellas?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Mitch Rein is younger than him.

 

[Gazzamatta]

Mitch Rein is younger than him.

So is Steve Edge.

Is Ennis there to give handys?

 

[Soren Lorenson]

Is Ennis there to give handys?

Haha so 'front loading our effort' is actually a euphemism

 

[Joshuatheeel]

“Reed Mahoney, Isaiah Papali’i, Marata Niukore and Ray Stone will depart after the current campaign. Moves are already afoot to replace them, including the tabling of a two-year deal for Dragons star Jack Bird.”

‘We blew it’: Inside Parramatta’s 35-year premiership drought

Much of Parramatta’s suffering since they last won a premiership in 1986 has been self-inflicted. The last coach to guide the Eels to glory hopes they finally get it right in 2022.
