There’s a reason he’s playing first grade at 18. There’s also a reason why B Smith and O’Sullivan judged him worthy of the biggest offer ever for a player yet to play first grade.
I agree we shouldn’t lose our heads, but this is not your average debutant. It will be massively disappointing if the Eels can’t secure this kid that we’ve brought along. Unlike the Cowboys with Ponga, we’re not stretched covering our other superstars. Any other club would be locking him up.
"Even if we are langushing in 27 we still need to keep him , they are attempting to align pathways with our nrl side , play same style and appears to be serious with getting great young talent .
changing coach means changing game philosophies,…"
"Difference you can see is he is targeting certain types of players and "appears" to have a plan with type of player or attributes and the way he has demoted matto and Cartwright shows he has more clue than Kearney did"
"Why do you think we have a warchest LB?
It was all JR's doing. It was by design, not fluke. He has cleaned house in record time. That alone is a massive achievement. We as suffering fans always want things fast tracked for success, I don't know what…"

The Roosters paid big money to poach Jackson Hastings from St George. He debuted younger than Dylan Brown.
Spot on. Absolute bullshit!
Tim Smith
Smith couldn’t tackles, barely hard a running game and had off field problems. None of these seem to be problems with Browns game.
But man could that kid kick and pass . Still belive he would’ve been more skillfull than Johns had he had the right guidance . Shame .
The Eels are in rush to sign him either. Not after 1 game
He is contracted for the next 2yrs, the club is going to wait until he has half a season of NRL at least under his belt.
Exactly the reaction the Warriors were hoping for when they made their offer. Did they end up getting punished at all?
No because they said they were sorry and didn't realise which is BS
But with Greenturd running the game nothing will happen
