Exactly. Give these young players a chance! The Eels need some youth and energy in the team
Good point + he's not that young. I think he's 20 odd. Not a teenager
I agree but our alternatives are better
Exactly. This is why we lose juniors to other clubs because other clubs offer fg
I have had this exact same conversation with EA many times. This whole concept of not ready is complete and utter rubbish in my opinion. I respect EAs opinion because he watches these guys but you can't always judge them purely on reserve grade. Reserve grade defence is not that great in general. Who's to say he won't defend better with having better players defending around him. Yes some players turn out to be not ready, but some players just step into 1st grade seamlessly. If you can't give a talent a go when we are that depleted when can you? Brian Smith held Hayne back and it wasn't until JT took over that he came in and absolutely brained them. I'm tipping Brian Smith thought Hayne "wasn't ready" too.
Fitler went from s.g.ball to first grade and killed it. Everyone said his defence wasn't going to cut it in fg because he was a jumper tackler. Fast forward 2 years into his career he was marking mal in the 1991 gf. He asked brandy for advice on how to tackle big mal. Brandys response" when mal runs at you bend down and pickup some shit of the ground and throw it in mal s face"
Fittlers response " where do I get the shit from"
Brandys response " when mal's running at your full bore there will be plenty of shit".
Fitler defender mal very well in the gf.
Though EA, way I see it is if his defence is a problem, well what's the difference with Pezet?
I think, at least v Titans you could get away with it for a week or two.
Yep Pezet defence may be even worse. Renzo reads is good. Sometimes he can just struggle to hit and stick since he is still young.

There are simply gaps there and we can expect 1-2 debut's?
I'm glad, he's young but this will be good experience for him,
