id love some clarity

its hard to gage weather the circus surrounding our club at the moment regarding signings,coach an retention policies is as bad an as accurate as the media are making it out to be.however some simple things to me seem to add to our problem things like meteo being squeezed out only to have upwards of $500.000 a season left over at this point of the year. or the fact that horo remains unsigned but the board approves of the maitua signing (not yet finalised). id like to see us get quade but id almost certainly prefer to resign some of our off contract stars or hav been able to keep some we,v lost. im an ando fan so the fact that ozzie flying to melbourne to for meetings with kearney is dissappointing especially at this point of the year were we need everyone 100% backing each other an being united as a club. player power is huge in any club especially ours so getting them offside by not signing popular members of the team or murmors of the coach getting the punt arnt ideal. i hope it all works out the way we all want it to but the main thing is we continue to win in the coming weeks an make those finals!!!!!!! GO THE MIGHTY EELS

  • Mark,

    With only 3 weeks left and our finals campaign on thin ice, I suspect the media announcement from the board of directors re the safety of DA's job next year is a deliberate attempt to placate this "circus" and glide attention onto calmer waters.

    Things will settle down, after the media leaks are plugged or some signings fill our salary cap. Then the circus will leave the public arena and arrive here.
  • Ray Price on Matty Johns said the meeting with Kearney was solely Osbourne's doing - "They are mates"
    It had nothing to with the board."
    Ray Price although saying he "supported" Ando was VERY hesitant to say much else - "Having said I support Daniel Anderson I cannot be seen to say anything against him"
    Body languae and facial expressions said he was lying about supporting Ando - this is ONLY my opinion.

    I believe ther are massive fractures within the club and until thse over inflated egos get pulled into line then the circus will continue to roll on.

    All we can do as supporters is make sure the team and coach know we are here as solid as ever and not desserting them.
  • ye no matter what il be sticking solid hopefully 4 straight wins an some finals will put the attention on the footy rather than the rest of the shit!! go the eels

"I think Joash is a good player, but from what I've seen only at fullback or on the wing. Those positions we've got pretty well covered, so I guess he's a great back up option. I'd like to see him in 1st grade, but I dont know how he fits in?"
