I think Barnett would be fantastic on a 2 year deal from next year. Help bring some of the young bucks through.

He’s also a great player.
I feel like its only a great deal if we get him this year + next. Otherwise i reckon coming off his injury + being 33 when he gets here will be rough for a forward and i feel like he wont bring much or any upgrade on our guys at that point in his career and cost way more

Brent read and Peter badel are simpletons from qld who don't really get the tribalism of our game , is V'landys stupid enough to say pick on the eels ? Highly unlikely , V'landys according to people who have worked with him him is he's a knob and full of himself but he's not dumb
Badel is from Sydney - good guy and was an absolute parra tragic. Wouldn’t have found a bigger parra fan. Obsessed.

So, Read and Badel have now said the Eels could be in trouble by getting the NRL offside. Perhaps that’s all that needs to be known relating to unbiased journalists who use specific clubs and the NRL for info, and probably what was behind the last minute capitulation.

Indiscreet dealing being put out seems the immediate answer, with the Eels having subpoenaed documents from the defendants, who knows but dodgy brothers being made accountable is not wanted

That's interesting I always thought he grew up a Souths supporter? Pretty sure he's from Maroubra way.

Adrian Proszenko is a mad Parra Supporter... has plenty of contacts in the club which is why he always gets the Parra Scoops.

Funny story about Proszenko.

He is a PLC member so turns up at most AGMs, etc.
During the Max years when there was lots of debate at AGMs about the changes, I sat in an empty seat and introduced myself to the person sitting next to me. It was Proszenko. He was taking notes at the AGM and when I worked out who he was, I asked if he was there as a Member or as Press. He didnt really indicate which. I then found a senior PLC staffer who got Proszenko to stop taking notes as Press weren't declared as being in attendance at the meeting.

Gee, todays Telegraph wirh lead articles by Read avd Badel , backed up by a sob story from Riccio really underlines the influence some clubs avd the nrl have on the media. Not sure how to describe them, put it this way it’s a reflection of what PVL suggested and Storm commented.

Didn't he win an award for breaking our salary cap cheating?

I am sure Badel is a Parra supporter in the past. I remember seeing websites he ran or was heavily involved in.
