  • Don't post the article. Post a summary of it.

  • Summary: Joe is set to sign immediately with Super League with the Eels re-signing Will Penisini, Sam Tuivaiti, Toni Mataele and upgrade Ron Volkman.

    Matterson has taken up his option for 2026 but the Eels are open to him leaving earlier while Cartwright won't be extended.

    • Good news all around especially Sam Tuivaiti.   

      Cartwright was always not going to.be re signed, 

      Ryles really putting his foot down . 

    • If that's the case with Matto, how is he in JR's plan

      • In other words, Ryles will look to use him for this season and he hasn't been "banished" as some were reporting.

    • I didn't mind Ofa. He was the closest thing to the alpha male in the team. Only one that showed a bit of aggression. Junior is a big softy but Ofa showed some fire in his belly.

  • I like Joffa but his best is definitely behind him

    This creates more opportunities for Tuivaiti and him signing on longer would be great news he looks the goods. 

  • Awesome now upgrade Ryley

    • Yes!! Hope it's all straight forward with that and Tuivati. Tbh don't understand why we had to release Joe, not a fave but he does have much needed experience and we haven't got a flood of forwards either.
      should have plenty of money to get these states deals done

       Ryles doesn't muck around that's good.

The brain doesn't have great seatbelts.
But CTE doesn't even need big collisions.…"
