His dad continually picking him in the 17 is though.

I suspect that there will be a surpise #17 next week too. Probably Rodwell or maybe even Russell.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Piss them off and sign ja on a 5 year deal, 200k/year.

that should put us in a great position.

Well, it wouId give us $2 million to spend on a halves partner for JA, who is only going to get better with age and experience, especially in 2024 at 22……..

Not that I am saying we shouldn’t try to keep both Drown and Moses….

ah, the voice of reason.

you’ve been saying for months moses isn’t worth a million. For once I agree with you. He’s probably worth closer to 1.2.

So if you were the boss of Parra and you tabled $1.1m x2 for our halves pre Nov but they said nah we’re going to market, what would you do ?

You would chase munster or Hunt.

Probably wind up with Herman and Karmichael hur dur hurr

Hunt would be a good pickup for a club who has just been analled by a shit club playing overs for your quarterback.

Hey, kinda like what we did by signing Josh Hodgson.

Don't encourage them FFS.

If we can't secure them both, I would switch focus to securing one (likely by increasing the offfer), and look to sign someone like Chanel Harris-Tevita.

 

[eels_fan]

sign someone like Chanel Harris-Tevita.

He’s taking 2-3 years off footy after this season.

That merkin is retiring I believe.

we’d need to at least keep one but it’ll also depend who our options are.

if we’re still keeping 600k aside for ice, and he moves on, surely we then have enough to upgrade both our halves.

If losing one of our halves means we upgrade ja, I and many eels fans would be against this option.

if we lose one half, I’d sign a fullback and move Gutho to 6 with either brown or Moses.

And then replace Papali’i with $0?

 

[IFR33K]

Do we need to replace him, with a 600k replacement?

we’ve got nrown, lane, hopgood, rodwell, Bryce and matto as our back rowers. We can add a cheapie amongst them or maybe a junior will stand up.

 

[Eelementary]

Maybe we just need the right offer to come along...

Ah.

Did not know that.

But I'm sure there must be some good quality halves at other clubs, not getting a go.

 

[Soren Lorenson]

Is there any chance at all of us missing out on the finals?

 

[Gronk]

$925k ? Bwahahahahaha
