        • Cowboys not offering him a deal for 27 so maybe we could get him a year early.

          • Really? Where did you see that? I would be entertaining that quickly.

          • Brent Read said earlier that Murray Taulagi "was leaving" the Cowboys. Make of that what you will. 

        • I can't understand how this club can't produce wingers, ever other club has a stack of wingers waiting for an opportunity but we can't even produce one. Lomax recruited, addo-carr recruited, simmonson recruited, sivo recruited,  even semi was recruited but without first grade experience.  

          • That is an issue, most clubs have wingers in development and overloaded with them. Eels just seem to have forwards and halves 

          • The last great winger we developed was who?

            • Honestly prob inu and Hayne when the broke onto the scene. We haven't really had anything of that level since 

              • EG Jnr maybe not great but Origin.

        •  

           As for the value of wingers today,  I believe strong yardage wingers have gone past the importance of strike centres. One thing the Eels have had recent success with is finding quality wingers. Both Semi and Sivo come to mind. Send some recruits over to Fiji and find some potentially good wingers at minimal cost and develop them for the next 12 months.
