"Cheers Badger, it is fun seeing the youngsters go well in those teams. Now we need to convert them to Eels first graders."
"Yep Coryn, I think development reliant clubs that invest heavily in development need more protection from the NRL.I don't know what that protection looks like other then expanding on the $5000 poaching fee or 10% of the top 30 contract. At the end…"
"Your last sentence is an interesting one Kenny, that when i think about it, could ring true to a degree. Although some must have that capability with 60 Panthers Pathway juniors contracted to other NRL clubs right now. Thats a massive contribution…"
In recent times, it is becoming obvious that the power brokers at the Eels see our junior pathways, as our path to future glory and probably rightly so. We see new full time coaching staff / Eels scouts across the country and scholarships for…

I believe his family haven't been impressed with how the club dealt with his older brothers neck injury, which if it's true is poor from the clubs point
His brother injured himself playing SoO, and the club even went to the lengths of exploring paying extra for insurance cover but it was too risky. A bad tackle and he would have no blood going to his brain.
Any suggestion that the family is upset with Parra is baseless.
Good Im glad, I would hate for the club to have handled the situation poorly
Very old news

No. Mines juicy
I reckon TuiKblahblah needs to just show why he was given a shot at FG and I don't care what he does next year. Next year is next year and what the Eels need in 2020 is some cover at prop so that come finals time Paulo, RCG and Evans will have the juice to play 3-4 games at full pelt.
If UtiiKblahblah helps get the Eels through the next 3-4 months to a GF victory, even at the Tigers he will still have my gratitude.
Maybe he needs a bit more than 15 seconds of game time to show what he's got?
Thats a very solid point.
More game time with his mates makes the equation more complex. The brother stuff has long been sorted and settled with NSW League.
By rights BA didn't need to put him on, the game was in the balance and he took a winger off just so he could run on and get a carry, BA did him a favour.
There's been plenty of blokes sit the whole game on the bench, in Origins and finals, it's not that a big deal
