I am not sure if they are good or not but I know the Eels development system will ruin them.
As a richer club their premiership window is bigger they get three straight grand finals, we get one. It’s still the end of the window and you still have to lose players. You don’t get to keep building forever until you win the comp. The Sharks and Cowboys got lucky. We didn’t.
He already said he would, meaning we don’t need to take our option even if we want to.
What are you on about? He started both games so far.
Only through injuries, first game I’m pretty sure he was on the bench. Are you seriously saying he hasn’t been a bust??
Every club’s best juniors are in SG Ball. It’s under 19s ffs. Flegg is under 21s, like the old Presidents Cup. They got rid of that grade because clubs weren’t playing their best 20-21 year olds there. Now it’s just a waste of money, blokes too old for under 19s and not good enough for reserve grade.
He’s on minimum salary ffs, who gives a shit? He’s a big mobile bloke, he can play second roe off the bench when he’s not starting at centre. Stop f**king sooking about it.
Who gives a shit?? We could be playing someone else while we are down on players instead we have this bloke using up a top 30 spot. But yeah who gives a shit.
Yep. He said that in the off-season, which makes me think his player option isn’t significantly lower than the club option. Otherwise he wouldn’t have said it. Just say nothing rather than cost yourself heaps.
We already played Lumelume from outside the top 30 ffs.
He started in Flegg tonight lol.
I already told you it was about resources. The more resources you have the less luck you need.
Well the players who replaced him reserve grade were too old for Flegg. This way every merkin gets a run.
Socialism at work!!!
The upside is that Harold Matts is now under 17s, with most of the best players able to sign adult (legally enforceable) contracts the following year. It means the grade is a lot more meaningful than when it was under 15s or 16s (when we used to win it every second year).
