SMH: Eels tell Vella he can go to Hull - but only if they get their new man

[PJ Marshal]

he was allright at the sharks didnt set the world on fire but

probably the time hwe was in the spotlight the most was when hoppa axed him

 

[The Colonel]

I'll agree he's not worth $220,000 Colonel, but i'd take him for 120

I wouldn't even pay him that if it was your money.....

 

[Hindy Rulz]

:? Is that why he was a regular in the west Tigers GF pack this year.

I think your getting confused with O'Harar, he's the one that hasn't done bugger all since 2004.

12 games hardly makes him a regular. When you take into account the amount of injuries the Tigers had, he should have played a lot more than 12 games.

Galloway=dud

 

[The Colonel]

Ummm Colonel, Cronulla fans at the time were pissed off big time they did loose him, and at the same time Tigers fans were estatic.

Most Cronulla fans on here were laughing at Tigers fans for talking him up.

Tim Sheens obviously rated him, and how many GF's has he won?

:lol: Good point Colonel, but a bloke like Galloway would run over Vella.

Frontrowers sometimes take longer to mature Colonel,

They sometimes do but in todays day and age its either the quick or the dead. Sometimes even the experts get it wrong Ronny......

He should be a regular in the Tigers pack by about 2014 then.

 

[Ron Jeremy]

12 games hardly makes him a regular. When you take into account the amount of injuries the Tigers had, he should have played a lot more than 12 games.

Galloway=dud

So i'm assuming you took into account the 6 or 7 games he missed at the start of the year through injury........

 

[eloquentEEL]

Is Frank Puletua still trying to get out of his Titans deal to stay in Sydney?

*edit - scrap that thought. I don't think he'd be looking at an ESL offer as well*

 

[Ron Jeremy]

Most Cronulla fans on here were laughing at Tigers fans for talking him up.

Probably at the price tag, but many of whom i know for a fact were pissed off big time when he was signed

They sometimes do but in todays day and age its either the quick or the dead. Sometimes even the experts get it wrong Ronny......

True, but Vella is 28 going on 29 and he still hasn't.

I believe if Galloway has an injury free next year, we'll see the best of him.

 

[Hindy Rulz]

So i'm assuming you took into account the 6 or 7 games he missed at the start of the year through injury........

Well going by his effort against Parra in a trial at cabra I don't really think he would have figured in the selections too often and I think Sheens was of the same opinion.

 

[Phillips]

Galloway, O'Hara, Tookey, seriously what the hell!

i'd rather keep Vella

 

[The Colonel]

So i'm assuming you took into account the 6 or 7 games he missed at the start of the year through injury........

Well Ronny from what I can gather from the Ryude Eastwood site he was named to play in and played in at least ten games during the regular season (taking into account I can't find all team lists)

10 + 12 = 22 plus two byes = 24 games. Included as part of that is the fact that he was eligible for the PL finals so he would have had to played during the last five weeks.

How long was he out for again?

last i heard He was close to getting a release from the titens and heading to the West Tigers but that was ages ago..

 

[Bazal]

I'd be looking at Newcastle and Roosters players as the most likely to be honest. The way I see it, there must be some Knights players keen to stick with Hagan, and there must be some Roosters players pissed off that the coach they signed on to play under has gone and been replaced by Chris Anderson. Now, other than that piece of logic, this is pure speculation so take it as such, but I'd be looking at perhaps David Shillington, Shane Shackleton, Josh Perry, Adam Woolnough or (more likely) some Knights and Roosters junior props...just a thought...

Too much common sense mate but I do like your thinking. Those two roosters props are not too bad

 

[PJ Marshal]

roosters have just recently signed nutley and beattie

 

[strider]

it probably be a michael hagan preferrd player and no doubt someone he was worked with in the past

it wont be carlaw no way..why would you leave the premiers ffs?

at this time of year i doubt much quality will come to the club or if they wud perform any better than vella

could be awen guttbeil lol didnt his deal fall apart like timmins?

could PJ be on he money here?

 

[Stagger eel]

could PJ be on he money here?

I actually thought he found himself another contract in England, but i could be wrong.

 

[strider]

well the player was supposedly "considering an UK offer" .... i think its gotta be someone older - he seems to fit the profile

 

[Phillips]

Guttenbeil is definatly joining Castleford

 

[strider]

oh - ok - i knew i was giving pj too much credit :lol:
