Welcome aboard TGAA.

Stefano is at his 3rd club before he is 25 years of age i think we can pass that one off as a bloke who was never going to be loyal.

Blaize well who knows i wouldn't lose any sleep atm if he never came back.

It will be interesting to see how Penrith fix his defence next year and the improvement they get in that area.
They may be able to teach him defence but he will always be slow.
Watching some of the highlights and they just run around him.
Blaize money => Connor Votano.

The Smith Bros, Willy Tonga, Mateo, Hayne, Inu, Blake Green, Zeb Tai, Luke Burt, Eric Grothe Jr, Reddy, Danny Sullivan. The list is endless.

Bea was at the club the same time length and the juniors brought through and developed could be counted on about one hand.
Didn't he bring in Manly Juniors across ?

Yeah but we also had Brian Smith and Crusher Cleal involved at the club in the lead-up. From a talent development point of view, that was a pretty special time.

And there were supposed respected posters on here at the time that dismissed Cleal leaving as not being a big deal and that he just had a scatter gun approach to recruitment and wasn't as good as all the hype. I argued that they were wrong and that he would be a great loss.

Guess time shows us all(except they won't admit it of course) who knows their footy and who doesn't, even though you would think that some of these lame turkey posters, with their connections and all within the club should have known better.

As the old saying goes, can't see the forest from the trees.

Crusher left us in 2003. You joined here in 2007.

Crusher leaving was a huge issue, not only did it set back recruitment as he left in the middle of the season, we lost Lyon over it as well.

All over "Allegedly" Crusher using the Eels corporate credit card to by a Larger TV for his house where he hosted the JETS program. He had that card because he would use it for the regular (thrice weekly) shopping trips to keep the house stockpiled.
