Which players are you most interested in 2024

[hindy111]

I'll start with who I am interested to see how they perform.

Grieg - He could explode this year or sink. Does look very fit. I think we see him pushing for a starting role.

Morretti - He will be I'm the top 17 I feel. Very explosive.

Doorey - Bit of a forgotten man. If he fixes his defense I can see him back in the side.

Matalele - Such a big strong kid. Again if can fix his defense he could be excellent.

Hands - Is he capable of getting the no 9 jersey back or not?

These are probably the players who's careers are at a knife's edge amd can go either way.

There is nothing in the backs that interest me in our top 30. Perhaps Haze and if he comes back better. I have interest in Talagi along with Ethyn Martin. Both might be in the 2025 side.

Looking forward to your tip for a breakout year mate.

I'm not feeling inspired by or interested in many of them to be honest, maybe that will change once the trials are closer.

I'm looking forward to the potential further development of Hopgood, Hands, Greig, Russell - and anyone on the fringes that might get more NRL game time this season like Moretti.

I'm also interested to see whether guys like Brown, Matterson, Lane, Paulo, Moses, Penisini, Sivo etc "turn up" consistently - or at least better than they were when on field last season. Or whether our leadership group think their efforts are good enough, and the squad is on the slide under the current coaching regime.

Martin
Hopgood

I am interested to watch our Juniors play alot of NSW Cup this year

 

[Stagger eel]

Talagi
Tualagi
Martin
Drown
Emu

 

[T.S Quint]

Victor Wembanyama.

 

[Cloeel]

Jirah Momoisea

 

[The Colonel]

Jock Brazel and Charlie Guymer. Both have a great work ethic, good hands and can play middle, wide or in the centres. I am of the opinuion they may debut before other more "forum favoured" players.

I’m really looking forward to seeing what brown delivers. He needs to stand up big time after his handsy approach to last year.

 

[strider]

Im looking forward to seeing if Will Penisini develops into what we hope he can be.

He has struggled for consistency a bit. Sometimes looks a gun, then drops off and looks average.

 

[Gary Gutful]

Brown for me. He needs to have a big year and I reckon he will.

 

[hindy111]

Brown for me. He needs to have a big year and I reckon he will.

Likewise. I think he can be the best 5/8 in the game.

These players can defend at all those positions? Impressive if true

 

[T.S Quint]

Yeah, I reckon most Eels fans will be interested in seeing how Brown performs next year. He's got huge potential but has yet to show it consistently on the field.

I'm hoping for Lane to have another big year as well. Barely saw him due to injury this year, and when we did he was fairly underwhelming. If he can have another year like he did in 2022 then it improves our team immensely.

 

[hineyrulz]

I want to see now Junior goes, we need a big season from him for us to be a threat in 2023. If he offers up the same shit again we may struggle.

A fit and firing Lane will be like a new signing for us.

A fit and firing Lane will be like a new signing for us.

Lane playing anywhere near to how he did in 2022 will have a massive impact on D Brown and the rest of the team. as it will the LHS defense

I seen him in a trial in 2022. And I said to everyone he is set for a big year.

Sorry for the intrusion but looking forward to seeing how Brown evolves.
