Nearly a week has passed since Buzz & Adrian mentioned we had a 'good' backrower/middle but we haven't really heard anything since. Does anyone have any further information on this?

I hope we don't hear a thing regarding potential signings. Announcing targets before they have signed is not smart. It draws added attention to the players from other clubs and this increases their price. It also makes the club look bad if they miss their target. I would prefer the Eels to have a list of potential targets with the amount of money plus length of deal they are willing to offer and stick to it. Signing the wrong players has a snowball effect. The wrong player now can result in not being in a position to get the right player in 12 months time. The Eels probably won't be in a premiership winning position next year, however, if they remain patient with their recruitment, 2027 could be a realistic chance.
"Tago will be NSW cup fodder. I think if we take JAC-Kelly-Will-Simmo as our start 2-5, our backup would be Russell, Richie, Samrani and even Twidle before we pick Tago. And according to MON we are still looking to sign an outside back. So Tago might…"
"I said in another blog that middle defence in our red zone remains my main worry. So we'll see.
But overall I am optimistic. I like how many players seem to be playing well and adapting to different roles.
I see possible significant contribution…"
"I was very impressed but my main unsuredness remains the middle defence. I think we handle the edges well now after it was a catastrophe under Arthur and Barrett. BUt middle defence especially in our 30m can be questioned and Sharks only try…"
"Shame indeed Mace. He won't feel it, never, but if enough fans feel that shame for him, and at having him running things the way he does, it will end him"

I think we are close to signing the panthers trainer
All i know is if that the signing does have leg speed, he won't be here, so that Rules out people like Douhie Gutherson and 1ee's Poppa
LOL.I might be old but i have great leg speed, I can get to the bathroom in 10 seconds and can nearly always make it.
Oh great! I thought it was a 'very good' player.
My expectations have now decreased exponentially.
Nobody is coming !
There is a chance of that.
