Training photos are on the eels site from today. Lussick is wearing a red single - maybe he has been dropped.

Maybe we don't want Kearney to pick him for the Kiwi test side, and have a chance at ruining his career too? ;-)

It could have something to do with the big falling out between Junior and Tepai.

I heard that there was a request for some time off so BA sent him to Wenty.

Very interesting. being in demand probably doesn't help, especially if one of the demands is bigger for him than playing for the Eels..........

For this season, we really don't need Tepai in our NRL squad. Whenever he can he should continue training with our squad but let him go for his Olympic dream until he either makes the Olympic squad or not.

We have up to 12 years of Tepai at his best in front of him. Letting his body continue to develop with minimal smash and barge wear and tear all-the-better. This guy is a superstar in the making. Lets not use "neediness" to mess around with his head only to stress him out further which makes things worse.

Give him the full support to get shot put out of his system and once that is done he is free to focus fully just on NRL. If he makes it, the agreement should be ONLY for the 2016 Olympics and that's it. After that his only focus should be, outside of family and a soul mate to marry, the Eels 110%.

Funny on the NRL website they have Lussick in their City side. That is going to make them look silly.

I still think they need to have a serious talk with Mannah about going away and working on a new aspect to his game like footwork or passing at the line or offloading in the tackle because he is an easy target for the defence.
