Unlikely that he will be played in the halves while Cronk is still there as they are VERY similar players. They will use a running player at 5/8 like Munster until Cronk retires.

Watching Croft in QRL he is much more a running player than Cronk. Similar skillset otherwise but he cut sides to ribbons in a few games. I actually think he'll be very close to starting the season at six. Munster is not a half

No he doesn't. The thread will just be clogged up with tweets about Josh Mansour recovering from injury, Tamou shopping at Emu Plains Woolies, the Duke snapping a nugget, Greg Alexander going for a walk, Mark Geyer playing golf etc etc.

Is that what we really want?

You bastard.

They just made a grand final with Blake f**king Green at 6. Teams prefer two halfbacks (as opposed to a halfback and a runner) because it allows them to attack symmetrically from midfield.

The alternative is to try and set your running half up on a big open side, which actually makes you more predictable (like us last year).

The NRL integrity unit has slapped Junior Paulo with a one-game suspension two years after he was involved in a road-rage incident in Sydney.

Upon being told that Paulo no longer plays for the Eels, Todd Greenberg and John Grant instructed the integrity unit to back date Paulo's suspension to the 2016 grand final , saying the Raiders were unlucky in the prelim and shoulda made the GF....so you know, he's suffered enough.... Carry on!

The left and the right are both full of shit. Everything is shit.

You can't claim one side is shit when such a claim comes from a position of shit. That's just shit and fails to recognise that all things left and all things right are equally shit.

I can't emphasis strongly enough how shit that really is.

#ShittyMcShitShit

I agree entirely. Just because I had a shot at the left doesn't mean I give the right a free pass. You should know by now I'm not that one dimensional. I despise both equally. By the way there is no right or left anyway.

Part of his punishment is also suspended so that if he ever returns to the scene of the crime I.e. Parramatta he will be suspended for 6 years

Wonder if Junior would of just gotten a week if he was still at the Eels????

Especially when you consider the time when they gave Peats a week for something that didn't even go to court.
