Loko Pasifiki Tonga requests immediate release

Sign the bloke. He is very similar to Sam Tuivita. Both played u19 origin blues together. He ran for 200m+ last week in nsw cup and still didnt get called into their side lol. Unlike the other duds from the DT article, this bloke is young and heaps of upside.

  • Dragons has rejected his request for a release. Maybe if our R&R team is on the ball, they can request Dragons to loan him to us and he plays first grade. Both sides win for the time being. Then if our R&R team is good, maybe they can make something to happen to convince Dragons to let him go ( which I doubt they will do).

    • this maybe more smoke & mirrors by the Saints, in a bid to extract someone from the eels or other club interested in the big fella. hes signed with saints until end of 2027 by looks of things.

      i do agree with you though that loaning him out could help the dragons long term, if they do keep him. 

      • We have one Zac Lomax we can offer them.

        • What about the cash we picked up on the Lomax exodus, i.e. it doesn't matter what bucket its in now, we know its not cap....actually legal fees but hold your mouth correctly and it looks like we are paying transfer fee to the Dragons based on that payout, obviously what ever we are paying the Loco is cap, the transfer not.

          Make it very attractive to Loco and he can be a lot more aggresive with his masters!

          When negotiating or trading there are always counter and counter counter offers.....sounds like we need to be quick and assertive.....I am not sure we have anyone that is quick and assertive other than JAC and I am not sure how assertive he is......now here is an opportunity for the MON haters!

          PS My wifeI could negotiate this, just requires a reverse "filibuster" she's a bit like me, stubborn as a mule! LOL

          • The Eels got ZERO from the Lomax saga 

    • The way his manager spoke about them I don't think that bridge will mended anytime soon.

      There was even chatter that Dragons were told Bula won't go if Flanagan is sacked. Isaac Moses up to old tricks.

      • the Rat will talk about it a fair over next 24 hours on SEN. great exposure for LPT but could also inadvertantly be promoting Rogers as a player manager.

        • Yeah they absolutely knocked Saints. They will keep going for him to get out. Flanno seems to have done what he did to Lawrie, calling him rubbish for a response and LPT has said screw this.

Towards the end of the 2025 NRL season I think a majority of Eels fans had some form of optimism for 2026 hoping it might be a possible top 8 position for the Eels. However this year has turned into one of the worst so far on record with Eels…
