Rumours and Stuff

They over rate everyone by about 60%. If they are saying he’s like Mick Ennis then it’s likely he’s more similar to Parramatta Mitch Rein.

They’re not saying he’s as good as a bloke who played Origin. They’re giving a description of his playing style by using an example everyone would know. If they said he pays like Shane Flanagan or Ryan Schofield it would be meaningless to most readers.

Everyone except those clowns, MON and BA knew he was busted yet we took a gamble on him. He also did it with Watmough and the same lame excuse was used - Leadership.

Yet there seems to be no accountability, no recourse. They are like these fat Americans serving me who expect a 22% tip just for doing their job.

How true. American style expected tipping is a joke and actually makes for lower total income for the average service employee.

Two teams per season make the gf, brad 10 years here x 2 = 20 opportunities to make the gf.
Thats below par, below the average when there's only 16 clubs competing

Lolz

Lenaz and Davis are older and, at this stage, better players. That’s why they’re in Flegg this week.

So play in RM cup .... Not going up to NSW cup...

On a separate topic, I didn't realise we had a couple of changes at board level earlier in the year, with the Centrebet/Deals Direct guy moving on.

Board Update: January 2023

The Parramatta Eels announced today that Michael McRitchie and David Jordan have stepped down from the Parramatta Eels Board.

I did some intitial research, I'll be interested to see what this guy can bring commercially to the club, surely he has some contacts with some spare cash - https://au.linkedin.com/in/matthew-beach-a7723972 https://www.mhcarnegie.com/matthew-beach

I think by the new constitution terms are now three years, and every year one third of the appointments are up for appointment. I think there is also a limit on the number of times you can be re-appointed

No your comment was specifically about them overrating players.

It was a good opportunity to give them some NSW Cup exposure against weak opposition. There’s no benefit to playing RM Cup. It’s lower than Flegg standard.

They do that too.

Well this is rather ironic lol.

Why ironic? Please explain

 

[Noise]

Easiest thing to do is DON'T READ IT... It is not compulsory.....
I, for one, enjoy the page, and the effort the team put into covering the Eels.
Don't discourage them...

I’m not discouraging them. I’m posting here on LU. And I’ll post whatever the f**k I like here. You DON’T HAVE TO READ IT.

What if she has a nice set

 

[Soto]

Both should be pushed out the door with Sir Baldalot. All 3 will probably still be here in 2025. Along with the Murph!!

When you predicted a panthers dynasty all those years ago, did you mean 3 premierships straight, or just a strong contender each year with the odd premiership?
