Like magic!

Nerd!

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Oh ffs I can't see it. Maybe that's the joke.

 

[T.S Quint]

Lol...we are pretty over that midget speed hump. Hope you get value and his shoulder holds up.

I don’t.

Let's cut Moses loose and throw all that money at Suaalii. We could put Arthur in at half whilst Blaze develops and have Gutherson act as a utility back

 

[Stevie]

Been away for a while. Chiming I’m on the rivalry thing. I wish I enjoyed them more but I have so much hate I can’t enjoy the game till it’s over (and we’ve won).

Teams I absolutely hate, in no particular order:
St George
Raiders
Storm
Broncos
Panthers
Manly
Rabbits
The rest I don’t like, but I’m ambivalent towards.

 

[Homo man69]

What a stupid thing to say.

You think Hodgson is a good signing?

 

[Glenneel]

Get rid of Moses his not a million dollar player. Invest in Ethan sanders all year this year and give him first crack at halfback in 2024. Use the money to sign someone like Suaali or Manu.

Not a bad idea except Sanders not a $1m player yet, and may never be one. Also can you imagine BA promoting Sanders over his son? Manu not going anywhere but Suaailli may be available but where do we put Gutho a $900k player?

If Moses leaves put him in the halves with Dylan Brown.

Weird combo. Moses and Gutherson works. Other way around? Not so sure.

Yeah, no long kicking game with Gutho and Drown in the halves...

 

[crocodile]

I was disappointed in the gf when Edwards got him. He didn't fend, change pace or goose step. He shouldve scored

No disagreement. He didn't fend because he was carrying the ball in the wrong arm. Edwards is a fine fullback and he played it well. Simmo fluffed it but it's a bit unreasonable to can him based on one brain fade. The fact still remains that he is poorly utilised.

Dylan Brown has the capability to develop a good long kicking game. It is not like he is physically unable too...
Just like any skill - it will take time and some coaching.

If Dylan Brown developed a solid long kicking game it almost makes Mitch Moses surplus to requirements....

It is exactly why I believe we should not be paying Moses a cent over 1m. He is worth even less than 1m to us if Dylan Brown were develop a long kicking game.

What more can Moses do that Brown can't apart from his long kicking game?

Just some food for thought.

 

[crocodile]

That's because we play to our edge forwards rather than just using them as decoys on the block play.

We do and this results in poor utilisation of a player's strengths. Our edgies mostly pass back inside anyway.

 

[crocodile]

He made a very long break that could've had us on the attack with a quick play-the-ball. Instead the dumb merkin thought he could run around the fullback and ended up in touch. He should've taken the tackle.

Or carried the ball in the outside arm and used a fend.

Moses was always a 6 and then developed into a 7 when Norman left. Same thing happened with Thurston when he landed at the Cowboys.

I reckon the Tigers may have a crack at Ethan Sanders.

 

[Soren Lorenson]

Has anyone here actually seen Sanders play? I've heard good things, but geez it's hard to have an opinion on what would work best without ever watching him. I don't even know what he looks like.

Yes I agree. If Brown had a long kick game then the idea of Guth to 5/8 would solve some problems. The cost of our halves would be less and free up money for an explosive fullback.
We talk about Sanders. Says who he will be better then JA? I'm sure those inside club would have a good idea but young kids don't always pan out like people think

 

[Gronk]

Mole has moved on from his claim that Dantoray was Mitch’s successor and has settled on Ethan Sanders. Apparently we have just “found” him.

New star Eel in waiting​

Eels fans worried at losing Mitchell Moses for 2024 can breathe a little easier following the emergence of a superb young prospect from within their own ranks

Ethan Sanders is just 19 and starred for the Eels in the Flegg Cup last year.

There's a bit of Trent Barrett in his play and he has all the skills to make it to the top.

The club has their eyes on him and he'll challenge Jake Arthur for the number seven jumper should Moses make the leap to the Tigers or Bulldogs in 2024.
