First time poster here.
I'm wondering what everybody thinks about our backline in 2018. Its finally taken a shape that I can see standing as first choice for the rest of the season barring any more injuries. However next year we will obviously be without semi for at least a year, and maybe for ever. Will hoffman join the starting lineup or are we in the market for a winger over summer? To continue this discussion, do you think Semi will return like the media has touted him to?
I know we still have this season to think about but I thought it would be an interesting discussion to have during the bye round.
Cheers and go eels!

Hello welcome.
I think Semi will only return if he has success this year, like making a Grand Final or similar. If he does not see us on an upward trajectory and believes he can win a premiership elsewhere, I would not blame him for ending up somewhere else. Ultimately, he will return if it is in his best interests. He may want a change after that scandal that he had no fault in. I also don't think the Eels can bank on him returning, the team needs to go ahead as if he were not returning unless something is already organised.
If semi comes back he will not come back to Parramatta he will go where the money is so he go to the Broncos Roosters or Storm Bulldogs he will not come back to us he said he will but so did Benjie Mashell to the tigers
Yes, the days of the Nathan Hindmarsh and Luke Burt is over for most people. Honorable players are rare. Personally it is understandable, you do what you have to for your career.
