NRL set to clear Willis Meehan to play for Parramatta Eels next week

THE NRL is set to clear former Sydney Roosters bad boy Willis Meehan to play for Parramatta next week.

A superb all round athlete and junior boxing champion, Meehan has been desperate to kick-start his league career after being sacked by the Roosters following an assault charge in 2015.

Last week I wrote that Meehan had agreed to terms with the Eels but the stumbling block was getting cleared by the NRL Integrity Unit.

But sources have told me that Meehan – who has been likened in build and style to the great Sonny Bill Williams – will get the green light to join the Eels next week.

A former Australian amateur super-heavyweight champion, Meehan, aged still only 21, has unfinished business in boxing.

He has a bout scheduled in Sydney next Friday against Danny Rio and the Eels have agreed to let him fight one more time before resuming his league career.

Meehan played one top grade game for the Roosters in 2014 and will be a handy mid-season addition to the aggressive Eels pack.

Absolute unit and would be far from
March fit but if he can realise the potential he showed at the Roosters he would be a very astute buy. His father Kali is also a big fan of the Eels and trained at the club when he was fighting.

Kali was a very good boxer and a nice guy. I feel this will work out.

Seen as we are close to sighing him, do we start a boxing thread?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

There's already a wrestling thread. We could discuss boxing in there.

Honestly, I'm not sure why people are raving about Alvaro.
Sure, his game against the Raiders was an improvement, and he started well this week, but I did notice he tired quickly and looked fatigued in his second stint.

Nevertheless, that's two about above average games out of about 30.
I realize he is young and will improve, but at the moment, I can't find a spot for him in the 17 if not for injuries, and you'd have to think, his games will be limited when Evans and maybe another prop or two come in.

He will be behind, Mannah, Matagi, Terepo, Evans, Vave, and another signing and maybe even F Pritchard.

And this coming from someone who's been banging on about Alex Twal ... please!

What's wrong with Alex Twal.
He is still very young for a prop, 21 I think, and Cleary has obviously seen something in him to sign him on a long deal.

I'll make a bet with you Staggs. I'll bet Twal plays more NRL games than Alvaro will.

I'll even say, Twal plays more in 2018.

Don't put your house on that Chiefy.
Period.

I can see BA wanting a non-stop worker to counter what he gets from the others at times.

1. French
2. Semi
3. Jennings
4. Taka
5. Gutherson
6. Norman
7. Moses
8. Alvaro
9. Pritchard
10. Vave
11. Ma'u
12. Moeroa
13. Brown

14. Scott
15. Meehan
16. Edwards
17. Mannah

I reckon by Round 18 barring injuries.

Oh dear...
you deadset have nfi...
Cleary got him on the cheap and he'll even struggle to make that 17 ... he couldn't tie Alvaro's shoe laces

 

[Stagger eel]

By the chiefy .. you're in the know when are we going to announce the Hayne signing ... you promised it'll happen didn't you?

 

[chiefy1]

Dear o dear o dear.

I need say no more here.

And why are you swearing, are you afraid to make the bet ?

What happened to your Toupu scoop ???

 

[Stagger eel]

Make a bet with some douche on a forum who I'll probably never meet?
I tell you what, come and see me when Twal actually makes his first grade debut or else don't even waste my time,
Now for that Hayne rumour..??

Listen, we can make a bet just on bragging rights.

Put your money where your mouth is - Twal to play more NRL games than Alvaro in 2018 !

Let's see who is the better judge big guy !!!!

And if you lose, you can change your silly avatar.

I reckon by Round 18 barring injuries.

Surely Guth moves to the centres and Taka moves to the bench or Wenty. Guth is a much better defender than Taka and I'd argue just as good attack.

Please... bragging rights??

I don't do dick measuring contest with amateurs but thanks anyway...
end of the day if you choose Twal ahead of Alvaro than you've got a lot to learn my friend..
now when's that Hayne signing going to be announced I've just bought a bottle of Moët and $100 worth of streamers when can I celebrate his return??

For those wondering just how big Willis Meehan is these days:

Mate you are afraid to put your reputation at risk, because you know Alvaro will have limited chances next year.

And I'll be opening my bottle of moet when Toupu arrives.

You want a bet, you name the price.

Reputation??? ... as I said I don't do dick measuring contests with amateurs on an Internet forum... maybe get out and watch a bit of wenty and see how twal is dominated against park footballers or else don't even bother playing games with me

Hold on ... Tupou?? Anthony or Daniel??
