      • Sami is not being kept, maybe a swap ? 🫡

        • I like Sami and AKP as wingers but we currently have Fox and Lomax. Unless Lomax plays centre we need a centre 

          • Potentially AKP outside Lomax

    • Agree BE. And in his last games with us, he becomes a defensive liability by leaving the defensive line but had missed to tackle thus leaving the opposing winger for a try. 
      Unfortunately, Lomax had also done this since he came back from SOO. 

    • Show me any buying we are actually doing Blue Eel.

      I'll call down once we start......

      • Frank that's a good question, I could say that Staggs and Cobb were available just a couple of weeks ago, as was Dane Gaga. The club was either not interested or missed out.  Adam Douehi is available right now and can play 5/8 or a ball playing lock as well as centre. Centres off contract in 2026 include Herbie Farnworth, Roger Tuivasa-shock, Jack Bird, Averillo. Now if none of those were of interest to our recruitment gurus then I guess we would be looking for youngsters on the cusp that offer more potential then What we know we get from Bailey. EA is better placed to throw some of these  youngsters names up either in house or at other clubs then myself. 

        On the outside looking in it appears our recruitment is letting us down, however if all these youngsters come off all together, then wholly shit we may get an Eels Dynasty.

        It appears we are going the way of Penrith and the Raiders in reallyinvesting in youth and potential, and giving them clear pathways to first grade through our new academy.

    • Samrani is strike weapon ?

    • Agree BE, he was an awkward player to fill a role that was becoming an injury liability. Hoping we can pick up someone different with speed.

  • We want players that love the club, good luck to him. 

  • If true he wants a release just after we resign him for another 2 year 

    So i was wondering if we release him do we still have to pay for  him to play for another club for next 2 years

    Can someone please tell me
