Rumours and Stuff

[DaveMc]

Probably because Moses would have a higher ranking over him.

If that genuinely played into it, then thank god he’s not coming to Parra, because the thought he can walk into a club with one of the best halves in the game and start calling the shots is delusional. Having said that, it would track with thinking he couldn’t learn anything with Luai next to him and being coached by Benji.

I don’t know if it’s a generational thing or if he’s just a kid with a big head because he’s had smoke blown up his arse since he was a kid, but f**k me dead, a touch of humility would go a long way. Giving Jackson Hastings vibes at the moment.

Don't we have the NSW Under 19s half or something? Why would we be looking to buy anyone else?

Fletcher?

We also have Lorenzo and Risati.

 

[eels_fan]

The new line from Fox League is that because we missed out on Galvin, we may lose Moses.

they can’t help but stir absolute bullshit about the club

Lorenzo would be how far off? 2-3 years ?

Saw Moses talking to MON on Friday night. Moses didn’t look happy.

I don't think rheed would add any more to our current team. Definitely not for the price

Yea I don’t think we should go down the reed route. The dogs didn’t want him and we gave him a chance and made him. Then he left us for the dogs again and now they don’t want him.

He made his bed.

Well the Eels site has Joash at 166 which Google says is 5'5 he isn't that small

He was basically nose to nose with Iongi after a try and they looked very similar heights. Im guessing around 5'10 which is fine for a half.

Don't worry. We know how you feel. We thought we had Brown, remember? FWIW, I think what Galvin did to your club was pretty low after signing a 3 year deal, happy he isn't our problem.

FWIW....Ive been dirty because for 3 weeks before this blew up I knew what was going on.

I genuinely think the best thing for Galvin would have been to take up the Tigers offer, take on that role as junior as face of the Tigers rebirth etc etc, for great money with great mentors etc etc etc etc.....but

I genuinely also think that if he left us the best fit by a LONG way was Parra for many reasons (childhood fan, good fit with Moses, opening in the squad etc) but I am very , very VERY VERY happy to see Parra not rewarded for their f**kery.

Of course you did…. But you held onto that observation until now when it suited your negative narrative to share it.

O’Neill needs to go, but Moses is 100% happy with where he is

Can you take MON back?

Nice to see you guys are finally on the same track as us now the shiny object has been taken away.

 

[JokerEel]

Probably 2-3 he is a ball runner with really nice hands, doesn't look like a space cadet like our current 5/8.

He will play this year in Flegg seeing how he finishes the year he get a promotion to CUP in 2026 though the issue is as you posted we rushed out some signings this week and 1 of them was Volkman. So the halves for CUP is covered.

I still would put my money on Joash getting the 5/8 spot next year.

 

[TheCrowe]

Not saying he is a world beater but Brown hasn’t exactly lit the world on fire this year either. We either take a punt on a junior or try a solid first grader. Who is going to be available? Sandon Smith, Sexton? Not too much available.

Sandon has improved this year but would depend how much we would need to spend on him.

I wasnt saying in the context that he wanted to leave but the fact he knew Galvin wasn’t coming.

It was either Parra or Phil Gould being rewarded for their shadiness. Personally I think the greater evil won.

Saw Benji with his arm around MON on Friday, they looked ecstatic

 

[lucablight]

Masterclass GM. That’s how you do it. We have Jim’s mowing. Who the frig is Jim? A freakin admin clerk l, the Steven Bradbury of admin clerks who landed a freaking CEO job

When I heard Phil Gould complimenting us on Friday night I knew we were in trouble. He wouldn’t have been so complimentary if we had stolen his prize from him.

 

[JokerEel]

Can we chase Joey Manu for next year?

 

[Tiger5150]

I have no evidence of Goulds shadiness. Ive seen no connection with Gould and Galvin until Tigers gave permission.

Well if you want a laugh some dogs fans reckon on there dipshit forum he will have to come through via NSW Cup to earn his stripes into the starting team.

They must be on something if they think that's going to happen.
