Had he signed elsewhere many would have a go at us for not signing anyone, guarentee it. Many would do that same if we signed Ramien but instead we didn't so instead it's we are rubbish. Had we signed him it's were rubbish.
Not saying I like the signing, just stating facts.
There is no question about Russell having a disappointing season, whether it is playing injured or his Perth signing, I do not know....... what I do know is at the end of last year up until he scored the first try against Melbourne first game, he was looking every bit a first grader and a good player for us.
Sadly this was not sustained and nobody is now lamenting his loss to the Bears, which was not always the case.
"Oh yeah you need to, as you need to make them feel they are wanted to start, have belief they will be starting.
As for PNG, they are this boogeyman but are nothing but a shadow at the moment. Look who they have signed; Luai, Johnston, Watson and…"
"He would be bought as a centre or wing with the potential to be a utility......any expectations of greatness would be a complete exxageration..... the decision could only rest with the alternatives we have....as someone mentioned you don't have to…"
"LB, the thing is, and Gus laments this all the time, you generally have to pay overs for good juniors you want to keep. Big Sam will be one. Let's hope he stays loyal.
Look at the consequences of this. It's probably another blog.
If Gus and Scope…"
"No thanks. Moses Suli was sacked by two teams for having a poor attitude. He's one of them players who was talked up a lot when he first came on the scene as being something but it has never materialised. "

Actually i would argue that, but it is just another opinion.
I'm not sure we ever saw the best of Tahu, Newcastle did but we got a lot of errors with him as well.
Surprise surprise

Yea yea thanks LB
Say it's for now. Rusty goes to reserve grade. He had a good game against broncos. With fox speed and power on 1 side.

Of course he is. Eels surely have the worst recruitment team in NRL. Back to our glory days of the early 90s
On a side note, Averillo getting $680k from Wests. Overpay if you ask me.
Rather that then Moses Suli on 550k mate
💥 averillo plays anywhere in the backline.
