"who cares if he signs. There's plenty of other players coming through. One player doesn't win a premiership as we saw with Hayne. The Eels need players who are fully committed not half hearted players who are more interested in themselves and their…"
"You always have to think too, did the coach want them as well? If Ryles really wanted him i believe he is offered a top 30 deal."
"Then again, Ryles has surprised us. We both said last year Tuivaiti more likely sees no FG in 2025 and will play Flegg to Cup. He debuts Round 1 hahaha."
"Though where is that. Logically for Twidle, 5/8 was his only option. For some reason it seems the club only saw him as a Fullback. Lorenzo and Fletcher are our future at 5/8. Maybe Bamblett and Rasati as well who knows.

Was trying to deliver the news and be kind, but yep!
That's okay if they deserve it. Hard for players to stay motivated if they're on extreme unders. They've earned it IMO
They sure have. IMO the ony way we sign a qaulity back is at the expense of Fergo and off loading a quality forward.
Crazy if we let NB go. He is the absolute driver of our forward pack. It showed when he went off injured last weekend.
Oregon Kaufusi's outstanding improvement since last season warrants an upgrade too, Mick. He'll have plenty of offers soon if we don't look after him, his manager will see to that.
Ah Yes - the good old Cash 22.
$600K (2021/2) sounds a lot if you say it slowly - in the real market it is not so great when upgrading 3 or 4 players.
Opacic, Pappa and Carty for starters will make a big dent.
We haven't seen Lussick and a couple of others perform yet
"off loading a quality forward" ??????????????
Are we really that flush in the engineroom EE?
Mate, we have plenty of talent, depth, size and balance in our forwards. Add Nuikore back into the equation and it is even stronger. I don't want to lose anyone from our current pack to pay overs for a centre. I think our engine room is just fine.
OK, I misunderstood your original comment.
One of the recruiting stategies I have liked is buying (say a centre) who can adequately fill other positions as well
centre - pinch hitter 5/8 - wing - and fill in fb.
It appears to me the days of being an out and out specialist player in any one particular position (forwards or backs) is fast becoming a thing of the past.etc. Is player versatility becoming the new normal?
Good outcome. Nice work by the club.
