Lomax Gone

Just listening to Braith Anasta who has stated that Lomax won't be playing with Parra in 2026 and that's he's basically signed with Rugby Union. Anasta reckons he will not play NRL again and will likely move to UK to prepare for the October start of his Union deal. Hope this isn't correct but it wouldn't surprise me. Anasta is normally reasonably accurate. So Eels need a new winger for 26 onwards

                  • Yea I think bamblett and Roksuka play JF. Moala has to start for me. He looked like he's got something. 

                    I think Davis is still Matt's eligible next year so I imagine he'll play there. 

                    maybe they give Bloomfield first crack at FB and if he struggles again I'd put him on the wing

                    • I am boot sure on Davis age so you could be right. I recon lock him down for aussie school boy fullback if that's the case. He reminds of Reece Walsh/prime Papenhuyzen.

                      1. Bloomfield
                      2. Sorovi
                      3. Moala
                      4. Howlett
                      5. Cobi

                      is that your SG ball back 5? Rokosuka and Bamblett in JF with the likes of the older boys in Farrugia, Alamadine, Aidan K

                    • Our rookies start pre season training on Monday. I am really interested to see which ones get the chance of an NRL pre season from JF and below. Hope it's genuine talents. Not fucking Farrugia type players

                    • Yep if it was me that would be my back 5 to start in ball. Our outside backs in Flegg look average. Crazy the amount of FB depth we have though considering Joash, Twidle, Bamblett, Davis. I've also heard good things about Lorima Seuseu who will be Matt's eligible next year. 

                    •  

                      i saw a post of some of the flegg boys farewelling Will Lewis. Looks like he's on the move. Sad, he was one of my favourites 

                    • Yea our JF outside backs are shit. They will soon be out of the club. Our fullbacks depth insane. Never heard of the bloke. Don't really pay attention to anything below HM. 

                    • Yea worked really hard. Just too many players in front of him blocking his path I recon. 

                      He needs to really beef up though.

                      whose account did you see it on?

                    • Trace Beattie.  Also that looks like new training kit?13766420100?profile=RESIZE_930x

                    • Outside backs in Flegg are by definition 'average'. Maybe if they're still 18 or 19 and playing Flegg they might have potential, but really they should be playing reserve grade at least by that age. Outside backs mature much earlier than forwards and spine players. The best ones are all playing NRL by the age of 20.

    • Even if we signed Garrick by some miracle where would he play? He's usually a right centre
