Moefaauo - Is this the same bloke we lost to the Sharks a couple of years ago?

On the squad we realy do have some front row options with terepo and j.Mannah both capable of playing first grade this year.Also Poore back.
Second row is still a little weak for me-Dont seem to have any real hole runners (other than reni) and i think POH is still a year away from beeing ready. Tautai could fill this role thou!
Backs look sharp.Id love to see Hayne Sio Loko Tongo Tonga...Fast and powerfull.I think Burt will struggle to hold his spot.
My early tip for rookie of the year is Terepo.He looks a great prospect.
Our biggest weakness in this squad thou is a player to come of the bench and spark things up.Not sure who it will be??
Barba maybe?
Ben spent his first year mostly coming off the bench, with Roberts shifting to edge forward.
This is also how Cooper Cronk was used in his debut season, pushing Scott Hill into the back-row when he came on.
Roberts is a bit small for the forwards, at least in defence. But it could be a good way to ease Barba into first grade, assuming he hits the gear in the off-season and gains 30kg.
Otherwise we might just use 2 props and 2 back rowers off the bench this year. There's no rule saying you have to carry a hooker/half on the bench. In fact, if your entire starting side (minus props) can play 80 minutes then you could get away with only carrying two on the bench (both front-rowers). I'm not saying it's ideal but it's doable. No point bringing a bloke off if he doesn't need a rest, especially if he's being replaced by an inferior player.
I recall he was a gun, I hope the Sharks haven't ruined him
Sandow and Barba on field at same time? no way

by the way, if Marmin Barba was available in the open market he'd have more than half the NRL comp after him..he's definitely the sort of player that would fit right into any squad in the comp, brilliant with some edging that needs smoothing out, a definite project player.
Time can certainly be modelled as a continuum, with individual moments represented as points along said continuum. This is the linear perception of time - this is time as we experience it.
So while you mightn't be aware of Cameron's new role at the club at this point in time, you certainly were well aware of it at a previous point in time (likely multiple points actually) and these points in time all lay along the continuum representing that range of time prior to the present - the time we have already experienced.
My hope for you, and I'm sure I'm not alone in this feeling, is that you once again become aware of the title of Matt Cameron's new role at the club at a future point in time - that is, a point (or points) in time along the continuum which represents that range of time yet to be experienced.
Of course, none of this takes into account alternate models of time, many of which would see you simultaneously knowing and not knowing what Cameron will be doing at the Eels in 2012.

Yep.
He was awesome for us, we had big things planned for him.
Then he got sacked after the Knights game in Newcastle earlier in the year,
