Buzz Briefs - T REX RUMOR !!UPDATE!!! - Eels Blogs

It seems every time a big name is on the rugby league open market, the Eels are in some way linked to the player.
A couple of weeks ago it was supposed to be Sonny Bill Williams.
Now there’s mail that blockbusting Origin forward Tony Williams is close to putting pen to paper at Parramatta.
Coach Stephen Kearney is obviously looking at his option for next season and will have money freed up in the cap.
But he insists the club is more concerned about fighting their way out of the current form slump while leaving the recruitment to Peter Nolan.

interesting, some backup the the rumor's going around.

T-REX ON MOVE

Tony Williams's return to Parramatta in 2013 is all but a certainty. With Manly struggling to retain a plethora of stars following the re-signings of Kieran Foran and Daly Cherry-Evans, and ongoing negotiations with fullback Brett Stewart, Williams is set to link up with former Sea Eagles teammate Will Hopoate next season at the club where it all started for the giant. Expect an announcement soon

"I may be wrong but we are in a worse position than we were after 8 rounds last season we didn't recover from that so most likely won't recover this year so none of our players being picked for origin won't make any difference"

"All good poins here Super, particualrly the Penrith forwards; i watched their game and from a kick, their fullback, wingers and then often the centre takes a run off a half / 5/8 play in the middle of the field. By then you only need one prop and…"

"Yeah good point Poppa. Queensland have a few injuries in their pack with Fa'asuamaleaui and Flegler out of game I, might pave the way for Hopgood to be selected. On top of that, Hopgood might not get an opportunity again to get picked in Origin, so…"

  Why would they tell a good player not to come? do they want to be losing for ever?Are they afraid he will make them look bad? If they are losing now so they can get rid of SK why wouldn't they want T-rex to come? Are they that stupid?
