This move is awesome couldn't be happier. We beat the Brisbane Roosters Warriors just lost to Melbourne shown back end of the year we were one of best in nrl. Throw in Pezet as a bridge for Lorenzo who needs a year to stand the physical nature of 1st grade we a real threat . We are using Pezet as much he is using us

It looks to be all set and done now, it is what it is let's just hope they have a plan for the five-eight position in 2027, whether we sign someone from the open market in a couple of weeks or see if Lorenzo is a chance to be ready by then
"O well, it is what it is"....Is that what you say when you find out the neighbour is banging your wife....it is what it is
lol
If you are Parra you just take your position in the cuck chair and offer him a contract.
It's a new day and I'm still pissed off and in disbelief that the club would even consider this.
The only way this works as poppa pointed out, is if the eels already have another quality half signed for 2027.
I would literally bet my house on the fact that we don't. MON and our R&R team have consistently failed. I'm sure we'll be used as leverage in someone else's success though, we're great at that.
The only chance we have of a Premiership is the stars align and we get a batch of high-quality juniors coming through which can take us on a run all the way. We dont have the strategy and nous to engineer a Premiership by playing the player market. Developing our own is our only chance. And we'd need to do it with a young squad before they inevitably get poached.
Yep, and our track record there isn't good. Our last junior supposed next gen superstars were Talagi, Sanders and Matt Arthur. Gone, gone and gone.
It's a shame because I do like what I've seen from Ryles as a coach. But you can't win a premiership without the roster.
Even now our best players are Moses who's a huge injury concern and Lomax who may or may not play another game.
💯 I've always been sceptical about our off field abilities vs the best in the comp and I agree completely it feels like we are always playing off the back foot and are no where near the top of the tree when it comes to what your mentioning.
So how do we win a comp I just have no answer maybe standing in the middle of a field and getting hit by lightning seems like a more plausible chance because for sure and for certain on this recruitment development front we are just well off the pace.
More than likely the ones who blew a gasket and wanted Ryles' head on a platter when Gutho and Reg were allowed to walk, are the same ones now blowing gaskets big time. We are just fans sitting in the grandstand without a real clue what is going on with R&R. Funny (well, not really) how so many Eel fans want to eat their own.
