Rumours and Stuff

[Gazzamatta]

That try is fkn amazing...I can keep watching that many times over...it's a shame Semi didn't stay around longer. He was worth every cent he wanted...he wasn't a winger he was a footy player, an excitement machine, a very unique player.
Him and EG senior have been my favourite wingers at Parra. On his day EGJ was also very very good. He was extremely strong and also super quick

I agree. Semi definitely overtook Glover in that best ever Eels team selected a fair while ago.
Would Dick Thornett and Wynn hold their place over Hindmarsh for example.
I rate Fui higher than Dean Pay.
All just opinions I suppose.

Gee, if just one of your halves had those figures this year you might have actually won another game. Elite figures for any Tigers players.

And yet......Parra keep shopping at Casa del Concord. You guys have another one on their way to you shortly. This time it will actually strengthen both squads. We release a player we have too much depth in and you sign a player you have no depth in (not an outside back).

 

[Chipmunk]

There's always been a spot open on the Left Wing in Parra's greatest team. Semi would be more than adequate.

We're signing Api?

close

Simpkin?

Simpkin?

 

[TheCrowe]

We have been after him for ages. Seems to have stagnated.
Id rather stick with Hands.

 

[the phantom menace]

Lucky we now have Hodgson in our coaching ranks, who can help Simpkin reach the next level...

He's two years younger than Hands, so a fair bit of potential - and would possibly consider paying us just for the chance to get away from the spoon cabinet...

Semi was a f**king freak, losing him was one of the worst decisions we have made. Give him the ball with 1 metre to work with and seventeen defenders in front of him he was probably a shot at getting a try out of it.

I highly doubt that was our decision. In fact I’m certain.

Semi had over a million reasons to sign with Toulon

 

[hineyrulz]

Plus the court case didn’t help us much either. We were never keeping him sadly.

You only have to look at the very first page of this thread to see that we were being played like a foreskin by Semi’s management.

 

[Soto]

We lowballed him....

 

[I bleed blue & gold]

F*ck i miss Semi.

 

[Gronk]

F*ck i miss Semi.

You know I thought he would have come back to the stadium on game day to say hi one day. Announced to the crowd with all his tries on the big screens.

That would of been amazing.

Semi for mine would be right up there with the best that ever played the game. Probably in the top 5 of all time.

Considering the last sivo has surpassed him on the all-time try scorers list.

If semi stayed on sivo's wing he would be close to Ken Irvine's record by now.
