Watmough has faith in his move

foxsportspulse  01:55 AEST Thu Nov 27 2014

Anthony Watmough is thriving at his new club, the Parramatta Eels and has enjoyed being reunited with coach Brad Arthur, who he served under as Geoff Toovey's assistant at Manly in season 2013.

Watmough credits Arthur for reinvigorating his passion for the game and bringing back the enjoyment after a year fueled with speculation of his unrest and fractured relationships within the Manly playing group.

But he reserves the highest praise for the faith he has discovered since joining Hillsong church and the gift of salvation.     

"A lot of the boys at Parra go there so I tagged along after training and haven't looked back," a proud Watmough boasts.

"We are training the house down and I can't wait for next year and hey I got Jesus on my team too now," Watmough laughs.

"Pezet had 3 runs, 5 kicks, 2 errors, and 3 try assists. Let's be frank, two of his try assists were fluke kick/regather efforts by others and his try a fluke kick/regather by himself. Ryles played possum about what he has to work on in the press…"
