With all this stuff about Sandow and Arthur  it seems pretty clear that Norman and Foran will be the halves next year.

The Missing piece of the Eels puzzle is a top quality fullback. It seems like French is still too young.

Ideally we'll be looking for a player on a 1 or 2 year contract.

Who are the candidates, if any for the Eels to sign at fullback next year?

  • Personally I'd love to see what Radradra would do at fullback. He'd be like inglis on roids back there.

    • This time last year I would have said no... hell, even at the start of this season I would have said no. But seeing him in the last few games add a new dimension to his game with offloads when he and Taka swap around to send Taka away for breaks and tries... I say what do we have to lose? Swap him now with Reece for the rest of the year.

    • Completely agree...the only problem is his positional play on defence.. Maybe play Robinson their in defence and switch semi in attack?
    • Semi's hands aren't good enough to be a fullback. He still is very error-prone. 

    • I love what our left side attack is doing atm, I don't think we need to change anything.

  • my guess would be Micheal Gordon from the Sharks on a 2 year deal

    • I agree. From the people we have to select from Gordon seems to be the pick I'd go for. He's experienced, hungry for an opportunity, and can kick goals. If we don't re-sign Sandow (at this point that seems certain), we'll need a goal kicker. We've already seen how things went down a couple of rounds ago when we could kick goals for the life of us. 

  • hayne

  • Man I really loved watching semi and taka swap around last monday and completely confuse the opposition

    • I think it even confused us fans - I didn't know who was gonna score next!
