So nearly everyone on here mocked me when i posted that Bevan French's return doesn't mean an automatic drop of Hoffman. I spoke about Hoffman's speed, footwork and silky style as I said he was just being under utilised and not having any set plays run down his side for him to be effective... I was laughed at. But i know talent when i see it and he is a very handy player who's been very under rated by eels fans.
Last game u all saw what i knew he could do once he gets the ball more. Granted he's had to go searching for the ball even more than before to make it happen since our right edge attack rarely sees much ball....

Tough choice for Brad Arthur next month but here is my prediction.
 
Auv'a will be the one to bite the bullet as he has not yet had enough time to earn as much loyalty from the coach. Gutherson SHOULD BE FULLBACK but wont be because if he is fullback then that leaves Hoffman or French to be dropped and you cant drop either just yet.

1. French
2. Semi
3. Jennings Taka
4. Gutho
5. Hoffman
6. Norman
7. Moses

But later on once everyone is back over the next couple months, if French doesnt get his act together at fullback and gutho gets smashed at center there will be even harder decisions to be made. A reshuffle might occure around July..
Dont be suprised to see Gutho to Fullback French dropped Auv'a back in the side Taka 2nd row bench

    • Alternatively..leave it to BA
    • That's my backline as well Hoffman a better centre then winger
  • You may well be correct with your list.  I think that will force Taka onto the bench as he can play centre, 5/8 or as a forward.

  • Cronk won't come to Parra unless it's for some shopping.
  • French won't be dropped.

    • By july of Hoffman is still playing well and French isnt working out at fullback he will be

"Yes but it's no secret we were pursuing him first.  Hence my point, he had no aspirations to play for us whatsoever.  Whilst I'm not against the signing ( any signing is a positive when our recruitment are fucking morons ) , I'm sick of hearing this…"
