Some early Friday morning scuttlebutt on Facebook saying Eels have made an offer to sign Thomas Jenkins from the Panthers. I really have no idea if this is true or the validity behind the rumours, but this is a signing I can definitely get behind. Hopefully we've made him a great offer that puts Penrith in a difficult position to retain him. They have Tago and To'o on around $800k each, Alomoti and McClean on moderate deals, so it's a stacked backline and someone's gotta go, and they can't keep them all.
Jenkins is young and has a great career ahead of him, if we storm in with slightly overs for 3+ years it will be a great investment because we're shit at developing wingers. Let's hope this rumour is true 🤞
- Iongi
- Addo-Car
- Nanva
- Penisini
- Jenkins
That's a solid backline to build on.
Anyone with inside goss feel free to let us know?

I think Simmo is just about done with this recent injury, sadly. That's a big mountain for him to climb.
Unfortunately i agree Clintorian. If anything he will miss some of next year.
Either Jenkins or Simo to left centre to replace Russel?
I wouldn't rule our Samrani Super. If he had not been hurt i doubt Nanva would have debuted at the moment.
He is a product of his elite center next to him. There is a reason Penrith are willing to part ways. They could offload Tago or the like to keep him.
The reason would be price. A team will pay overs, we would too, hoping he will continue his form.
