I personally believe if INU leaves we have close to an adequate replacement in Tautai (spelling). What is his contract status as he will be ready for first grade in one more year if Inu decides to leave IMO
B-Tron 3000 said:Nonsense.
He goes, we have to replace one of the best talents in the NRL, and he misses two important years of his footballing education.
All this "raring to make up for lost time" is worthless if he has been surpassed in football knowledge by other players.
And even if he does come back raring to go, and the Eels get him (due to the salary cap this is not guaranteed regardless of Kris' loyalty), and he manages to get his form to a point he was at before he left, we have still missed two years of his career.
Not to mention that if Hayne considers going elsewhere, having a mate alongside him in the backline might convince him to stay.
It's simply not win-win for the Eels.
B-Tron 3000 said:Good point. You can flag mine as anti-Morman propaganda!!
Btw - I did say that Krisnan could turn my attitude around (as could any Morman I might meet or communicate with) and that I have no problem with people talking up their religion as long as they are able to see other points of view. Unfortunately, this seems to be quite a problem for people of all religions.
If El Coconuto can admit this isn't win-win for the Eels then I am happy to take back my request for his posts to be flagged as Morman propaganda!

JessEel said:ok - it's not win-win
BUT!!! who are we to demand that Kris continue playing? It's his life, noone elses. He does not belong to football, he dedicates his life to his church and noone can say that he can or can't do that.
The selfishness of someone to cry poor because we'll miss two years of his career! It's his choice! IT'S ONLY FOOTBALL!

I have no problem with people believing in whatever they want, I believe in Santa.![]()
I do however have a problem with them trying to push it onto other people and that is exactly what he is going to do, for 2 years straight, imagine how many people he is going to piss off.
Well I'm glad. People get too upset about words on a screen sometimes.El Coconuto said:Hehe, I really don't have a problem with anything you've said B-Tron,
Well it came across differently to me. My bad.nor am I interested in plugging the Mormon church.
See, now this is what I don't get about ORGANISED religion. Why will he feel bad if he doesn't go? Who, or what, has made him feel he has to do this?But I actually know Kris, and I'm just telling you like it is. There his feelings, not mine...
Either he will stay, and it will eat away at him for the rest of his life. Or he will go, do what he feels is right, and come back with peace of mind knowing he will be ok regardless of what happens.
So, it's more a career choice than a lifestyle or belief?Kris is smart enough to realize that there is life outside of football, and he isn't putting all his eggs in one basket.
No worries. Tell him I think he's a good kid who doesn't need to go anywhere to promote his religion ;-)I'll be happy to pass on the brainwashed comment to Kris when I see him next though ;-) So thanks...

Nothing will stand in the way of me realising my dream, crying like a school child on the sunday of the october long weekend sometime as we raise the trophy in glory.
