I know Sivo has been a PR cover-boy for the Eels and rightly so based on 2019 efforts. But he is still raw (NRL skills and experien

Paulo plays more first receive than Moses and whilst Brown threw an intercept, at least he wanted the ball in his hands to try help eels unlike Moses who barely runs or touches the ball. Paulo's fo
