Each week I get to sit down with @isaacissa_journalist and we discuss all the news and rumours around the game.
Some massive news for Parra fans on Ep1. Isaac dropped the massive news that his sources anticipate that the Eels are expected to win the race and sign Jonah Pezet.
A huge signing for the Blue and Golds.

So move our best player to fit an inferior player 😂 no thanks.
Please for the love of god can we just be happy with this signing and optimistic. Finally this club has some semblance of a future and proper hope for sustainable success.
Clubs would absolutely kill for Pezet and Moses, forget this 6/7 stuff, it's a fabrication, it's about working together under strong leadership and with a clear plan. Ryles, Moses and Pezet will have that.
Iongi is going to absolutely explode next season, he will be a huge threat with ball in hand, Moses and Pezet are both elite defenders. They can both kick general play expertly.
This is a premiership spine!!!
Agree with DYNASTY.LOADING and Parrafan101 . Pezet is a better all round package than Galvin. Galvin doesn't like to get tackled so he tends to pass to guys real close to him rather than get tackled. 50% of Galvin's passes are forward. Pezet's been in a good system plus he knows Ryles plus he doesn't walk around looking/acting like a dickhead. Fingers crossed we get Pezet.
Galvins the better fit outside Moses though.I think that's the main point everyone is trying to make.
They both have potential but versatility it's Galvin easily he has the ability to play all 3 spots key to JRs system that's why they swung so hard for him.
Then lets think outside the square. Dogs need a genuine 7 but can't fit one under their cap. We buy Pezet. At some stage down the track we do a swap deal with Dogs. Pezet for Galvin. That may work out a better fit for both teams
It depends on what his price tag is. If the deal is good for us I'm ok with it, I'm sure we can find a spot for him. I wouldn't go breaking the bank for him, way too many question marks that are yet to be answered. It's important to not get emotional about these things, in fact the higher the salary a player commands the higher the level of scrutiny should be applied to if our club should recruit them.
Yeah agreed re pricetag, he is worth 650 per season for 3 seasons.
The people who are freaking out about the 6 vs 7 are letting emotion cloud judgement.
Moses blurs the lines between the halves roles more than any other player. He runs just as much as Luai, kicks more than almost everyone and still commands his team around the paddock.
Pezet just adds some play making capability, reliable defence and genuine halfback coverage. He will take a lot of pressure of Mitch.
Well Dynasty Loading.....you have made a number of assumptions but most remain unanswered.
The 6 / 7 thing is not an emotion, we are not sure of Pezett's running game (2 ACL's dont usually make you faster). My personal views are I am not driven by emotion, I want anything that will help us.
Pezett's defence looks ok......then you make an observation about Moses being an elite defender, i.e. he is a reasonably good defender but hardly elite....Brown was elite! With Moses most of his injuries have come from his defensive inadequacies and he is going to need a protector to avoid more injuries. Think Lockyer!
Then you come up with the idea he is worth 650k x 3. This tells me you have no semblance of understanding his background of past injuries and unproven capabilities. It was reported that Parra was looking at 500k x 3, which is much more acceptable for his unproven talents. If he is good as we want him to be, he will find his way up.
Final question, other than his game in a semi final....... how much else have you seen of him?

Until it's a signature nothing is 100% and even then it means little these days.
