PapaliI must move back to second row where he was on fire.

Ray Stone has a big future he is a battle axe, not suited at dummy half but is our best defender in our pack. Brown back to bench to provide impact and punch.

Fergo is our best option on right wing hope he resigns.

Penasini is a gun and will only get better.

Blake's move to left centre was a master stroke from BA has been killing it on that side.

We really missed mahoney last night, very unlucky to have lussick out at the same time.

I can find a spot for lane or Materson based on this year's form, PapaliI and Nuikore are our best edge forwards.

Maybe lane for a bench spot depending on Kafusi development.

The rest of the team is settled, 

We were pretty good this year where not to far away beating Melbourne twice and going toe to toe with the panthers and could have of easily won both of them, we are up there with the best.

Depth is looking awsome, with a few juniors coming through.

We now have more finals experience.

I think we can win the comp in 2022. Or atheist play in the GF.

If we go well with injuries, sivo mahoney and lussick killed us and we still almost won.

Our premiership windows is well and truly open. 

Go BA and go the eels, I'm 100% confident that we will be challenging for the title next year.

Hopefully our attack coach can actually train us this year for more than 3 weeks ie Andrew John's.

Covid should not be an issue back at bankwest with a slightly better draw than this year, top 4 grand final. Is my prediction.

  • I think Sivo's spot will be under pressure from Haze 

    • He is certainly coming on strong, has a better all round game and goal line defence,

      • yep can't argue with that

  • I know this might not be a popular opinion, but Gutho is not an elite fullback and we have to find a better option. Does not run it back hard, always gets pushed back in tackles, and his passing game is average

    • The answer is Haze Dumpster.....he will be Gutho's replacement....a year as a FG player on the wing next season and then progressing into fullback for 2023.

      • Pop, Titans chairman Dennis Watt was on MMM talking about player movements and the year ahead for them. Mitch Rein is definitely gone and Erin Clark is his replacement going forward. Not sure of Clark’s contract status but I can’t see them being interested in Mahoney by the way he was talking.

        Ash Taylor is gone and looks like he is leaving the sport altogether. He said they have a crop of talented youngsters coming through and that is the direction they are taking.

    • Have to agree and he's certainly not a cool head under pressure 

  • The problem with signing Fergo to another contract is he will want two years and he will likely want more than the Eels will want to offer.

    I think for Fergo at this stage in his career, needs to chase the most money he can find and that won't/shouldn't be at the Eels.

    The Eels need to be looking at either Dunster or finding the next younger version of Fergo because they need to be looking at where they want to be in the next 2 to 3 season, not just next season.

  • Ferguson won't be at Parra, Sivo is injured and won't be available. I think Parra need some fresh faces in the side in my opinion. If its going to be basically exactly the same team in 2022 then we can expect very similar results.

  • With Lussick and our other hooker leaving we definitely need someone here. I have heard Trevor Starlings name mentioned. Would be a good signing if it happens. Would love to see Peachey at Parra too but sounds like he is asking for too much.  Mitch Rein would be a handy dummy half too. We also need a winger to replace Fergo if he leaves.
