"With Edwards, i wonder if Walker is ok to have a week or so longer off. As to why i mentioned about Barnett with older players, not all but a few need management and it means missing time."
"Surely now Brown gets a run. His form in Cup is consistent and getting better. Also gives Mataele some more time in NRL as well. Hell i would even start Mataele v Newcastle."
"Credit to Paulo for waiting weeks until the bye round to have his surgery
Knowing that it's almost impossible for us to get the spoon, I don't really mind this because it gives Tuivaiti and Brown an extended period for more game time"

Hopefully semi to be back halfway thru the year.
Still good side with some good depth
Gower is a great servant to the mighty Eels.
A heady player who is versatile.
no problem with this, a handy backup who will be in our top 30 and can cover all of the forward positions if injuries occur.
Definitely a depth player and a strong one at that. Gower is a good contributor when called upon and has done the job every time he's been called upon this season. It's important to have players like him in your squad given he can cover both the edge and middle. Nathan Brown plays a hundred miles an hour each week and Beau Scott is about to enter the final year of his contract so having Gower available to step into the breech when injuries/suspensions strike our forward pack is great. Out of the back-rowers in the lower grades I think we've only got Ualesi and Stone who'd be able to jump up and, as we've seen with Tepai, you don't want to throw them into first grade for an extended period straight away.
Next year we'll have:
Tepai
Beau
Kenny
Brown
Manu
Gower
Ualesi
Stone
as back-rowers. Frank the tank only signed a one year deal and hasn't been used a lot this season.
