    • ...and if we signed Pezhed for 3 yrs whoever this clown is would tout it as being the best thing ever....and if we didn't sign him at all, best thing ever.

      We definately tried to get him on a longer deal. This plan was hatched after we were rejected (too uggers)

      We are on Plan v3.0....at least

      • I didn't know we had an Australian Schoolboy 7 in our ranks, that is interesting 😂

        • I was unaware too. It's a good signpost 

           

      • Actually, if you follow the logic, it's baffling. But in the opposite way you'd expect. But it's not baffling the assumptions aren't questioned.

        • If this 1yr was planned to preserve jnr pathways I could get behind it, but that doesn't seem to square up.

          It feels like damage control PR, which is a shame

          • That’s right, Randy. The Eels’ damage-control masterplan is in full swing. Obviously. They tried everything to block pathways and sign Pezet long-term. Candlelit barbeques, hypnosis, interpretive dance, séances.

            Pezet gazed into the swinging pendulum and said, “Nah bro, I’m still a seven...toldyas last year.” He wasn’t about to spend four years brewing coffee behind Moses or Hughes. Or add another get out clause depending on the Eels releasing Moses asap. Even the lavender-scented long-term contract couldn’t lure him in.

            In the end, we bowed, surrendered to “the process,” and hoped no one noticed the smoke coming from the PR department. But we saw it from a mile away. 

  • I'm interested to see how Ilongi handles5/8 for Tonga this weekend. You never know, then I would be going all out for Bula.

  • This deal is hot garbage and no amount of gas lighting will convince me wasting cap space on a Broncos player is good sense buy another prop or someone long term to help the team instead 

    • Signing a bloke for 2026 isn't going to stop us signing anyone long term. He will be off the books in 2027.
