There has been plenty of discussion this year about our approach to recruitment and retention.
Both Jim and Matt Beech have been forthright in the focus being on bringing through juniors. Despite that we've seen external signings during the season su
Coach Jason Ryles and captain Mitchell Moses summed it up best in the post-game press conference after our 20-16 round 24 loss to Souths. We went in as hot favourites. Most confident of an Eels victory. Our Boogeyman struck again. History delivere

The Kaizen Way 改善. Constant Improvement. All for One, One for All.
