Left field option.

Staggs has actually played some 6 in his career, what if parra offer him the 6 jersey to bring him to the club ? 🫢

        • What the hell are you on about plopp. He only picked up the leg injury in last 2 weeks,  His foot injury wasn't a re fracture,  more a load issue,  hence he isn't goal kicking.  Trust me, you're off your head saying Moses's running game is now limited. 

          Look.at Papenhausen as a prime example,  he has screws and plates throughout his leg and ankle,  and is still quicker than 99% of any nrl player. 

          Trust me, you're off your head mate !!

          • The chances of me trusting you would rate up there with Pigs can't fly. How MANY GAMES has MM missed in the past season and a half and what injury is he nursing into this upcoming game.

            PS I said his running game is in question in relation to his role as a playmaker. Paperhausan has nothing to offer in the discussion, he is very different type of player than MM, Papa is a wonderful support player MM rarely finds himself there in the same fashion. Just compare their try scoring stats as an example.

        • I just think if there's not a decent 5/8 to compliment Mosses, worth turning the table around and have a half decent halfback to partner Mosses. He is still one of the fastest half in the game 

  • I feel Burton would be the best option for Eels. Strong defender and runner of the ball. Has a short kicking game that would combine well with JAC speed. Kicks the highest ball for Lomax to compete (higher than Moses). And he would easily let Moses be the number 1 man still. But yeah he wont be joining the club.I think a good club would develop his playing making his skills as well.

    • Honestly EA, though unlikely, i feel Burton could come here if available. 

  • I'd be looking at Sandon Smith. Great short kicking game and another goal kicker.. Or Metcaff..Our juniors are coming along nicely.. Offer a 2/3 year contract.. If DCE goes to the Roosters - someone has to leave shortly?🤷‍♂️

  • I think go after Staggs only if he willing to play Centre we need a good centre to i think he no good as a 5/8

    Yes we need a 5/8 but i dont think Staggs is the answer to a 5/8

  • Nah i would prefer a ball playing 6. Issue we would have is similar to missing Moses where the 6 doesn't take over. Someone like Sandon Smith became intriguing for that reason where he can play 7 and take over from Moses if he is out. 

    Not a dreadful idea, just think this team would be better with a 6 that is not mainly a runner. But i do appreciate you thinking outside the box and forming discussion Eli.

  • Katoa is the one to chase 

  • no to Staggs and Smith, I'd be going for Hugo Savala while everyone else is looking at Smith. Level head and can play 7 if Moses is out, good kicking game, can set up outside players and good defense and wouldn't break the bank.
