Jayden Okunbor?

Ive seen news that Jayden Okunbor may be back over to Nrl from super league, I think he d be a good move to be honest, hes about 6'5 so gives us some aerial threat and hes a big body, our right wing spot right now is becoming an issue, Russell isnt in great form, we are getting close to a first win, when mitch comes back i think we ll bag a few. Thoughts on Okunbor?

  • Did you watch him when he played for the dogs? There is a reason he is the 2nd divison of England rugby league.

    • Alots changed since then though, he genuinely looks like hes killing it over there, worth a gamble? 

      • Pretty sure the level of the compeition he is playing in England is equivalent to Ron Massey over here.

      • So is Bevan French... let that sink in

        • French was always an amazing talent. I recon he would still make it in the NRL. You see what he did to Panthers last year?

  • 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 wtf have we come to 

  • What? No, this is what we want to avoid. Bringing someone from UK (There for a reason at that age) to fix our woes when they did not play much back-row themselves. No.

  • this has to be a gee up, he isn't even reserve grade level. You may as well get Sam Backo out of retirement though he would still be better than Okunbor.

  • Lol

  • I just think on the cheap why not? He can also play second row and adds us depth and abit of strike? Dont see why fans are so against it, was he really that bad for the dogs?

I see Keon's price as irrelevant (within reason), because he is an absolute no brainer for the Eels.
 
Paulo was fantastic last season, though, he’s fighting the clock & Keon is a perfect replacement longer term.
