  • Greatest Eel of all time for mine. Wish the club could acknowledge these greats maybe individually with a handing over the game ball at each home game.

    4 comps in 6 years, great team great players.

    • Should have been 5 comps too. If Grothe catches as easy pass onto his chest in the 84 GF eels win.
      • Neville Glover's ghost. Same corner if I'm not mistaken.

        The Crow missed 2 sitters in GF's too. One in the same game and the other against St George to win it in 77.

  • I met Wally Lewis at a work conference many years ago and he told me that Brett Kenny was the best player he had played with or against

If he didnt burn you with his speed or side-stepping, he's probably sell you a dummy and send you to the dunnies. 81 GF..at the death. The Newton winger is still running to the other side of the park.

"He's usually right center, no? So he'll compete with Will P and Simonsson for the right edge of the backs. He's a good backup. I think he played wing before too. 
If he's signing to play left center then he can hack it there well enough and Russell…"
