Ignoring Second Tier Cap - Who Would You Select?

Never thought I'd do a team list blog, but I'll get out of it by not naming a 17 myself.So if we weren't restricted by second tier contracts or Wenty only contracted players, who would you put in your 17 for our next match? Remember, this is like a wish list selection. You can name any current Eels player who is not injured.

  • As I discussed with a few blokes on Friday night ( unsure if you were one ), I'd chuck french in at 1 I belive his contract has been upgraded to top tier. And I'd throw Kelly and norman in the halves. Given norman is goneskies chuck matto or Henry in.

    I wouldn't mind giving Nelson a run for the injury to Gower / Choc.


    French has to play at some point. What have we got to lose.
    • Agree dan.....we have little choice now
    • I didn't get to discuss it with you Daniel but giving French a go must be tempting. Going with the concept of this being choose who you want, regardless, I'd go with French too. I don't think he's quite ready, but what the heck it's just a fantasy blog!
      I'd even go with one or both of today's Wenty halves.
      I'd also find a place for Nelson.
  • Sorry sixties, I can't help myself! For me, I think the best way to express it is through a TEAM LIST!

    1. Bevan French

    2. Semi Radradra

    3. Will Hopoate

    4. Brad Takairangi

    5. Ryan Morgan 

    6. Beau Henry

    7. Zach Dockar-Clay (even though he's going to the 'Riff next year)

    8. Tim Mannah

    9. Nathan Peats

    10. Junior Paulo

    11. Tepai Moeroa

    12. Manu Ma'u

    13. Anthony Watmough (I think he'll end up playing through injury)

    14. David Gower

    15. Pauli Pauli

    16. Cody Nelson

    17. Alex Twal

    • Agreed but I'd swap out Twal and put in Aloiai. And take out ZDC and put in Matterson.

    • Yep swap ZDC for matterson and that's not a bad team
  • 1. Tedesco
    6. Hayne
    7. Thurston
    9. Peats

    • Mack I just vomited in my mouth with that halves pairing.

      To quote McEnroe `You cannot be serious`?

  • My facial tic has just come back - but I'll agree with Mack - the halves pairing of Kelly and Paulo has less potential disaster than 2 rookies. These last few rounds of the comp might not be pretty - but I'll stick with the guys who are putting in the effort.
