          • What failure are you referring to?

            • Are you serious?, the roster failures, signing Brown, talagi to deals with player options then losing them after already losing sanders because his path was supposedly blocked but in reality it wasn't,  going hard for Bellamy and Bennett but missing both because we started our bid too late, missing Galvin and keon after making it known we were very keen on both and pretty much went all in.

              At one point having 7 players under contract with player options in their favour even though all 7 were already at the club before getting the player options and at least one not even having played first grade before getting the option. 

              Is that not enough failure?, how much more failure do we have to endure before you are satisfied that we have had failure?.

        • Coryn isn't even.an.eels supporter.  His first team is the Warriors as he lives there.   Coryn is only here to stir the pot

      • Very worried for our future, smells like 2011-13 all over again.

  • Jack Williams was our best forward last year imo, I absolutely love the way he plays. He'll get better with a year under his belt. I hope we've got him for a while because he's the type of no frills toiler we need up front to partner Paulo. But, I actually prefer him on the edge.

    I think someone said he was on about $400-500k as he was blocked from a starting position at Sharks.

  • Was he any better value than Isaiah Papali'i at 175-200 K ?

    Parra over the years have found plenty of value in there back rowers Shaun Lane Maranta Nuikore Manu Ma'u Beau Scott all would have started on less than what Willams is on outside of maybe Scott.

    We got the Daly M backrower for 2 yrs best in the game for the above mentioned money now that's value.

    Williams yes a good player but value is in the eye of the beholder.

    • Don't look now, but you are making a pretty good argument for us not signing KK on $1 million plus per season. 

      • Optics.

        Id say the club had won a battle me now let's go win the war.
