Here's a summary:
## Key Points
1. Parramatta Eels' Joash Papalii is set to make his starting debut in the No.6 jersey against the Titans.
2. The opportunity arises due to suspensions/injuries to key players Dylan Brown and Mitch Moses.
3. Dean Hawkins will start at No.7.
4. Papalii has played 3 games as an interchange player and has experience playing in the halves at NSW Cup level.
5. Teammate Zac Lomax praises Papalii, saying he's "light on his feet" and "trains really well."

Yeah not convinced he's the answer at 5/8th.
It almost feels like the club can't or won't pay the asking price for some of the options at other clubs and are praying beyond hope that Joash is the missing piece.
I hope so, but IMO he's not that. No kicking game, defensively suspect. Let's see if he can organize, run when needed and offer the side options in attack.
Yea I don't think he is the answer. At least coach is trying something different.
I'm with you on this Heisen!....that will worry you LOL
Analyst, you wrote the article in something like the first person, no qualification where you got the information from.
Then you say you "don't think he is the answer".
You really are looking for a job in the media aren't you! Double Dutch like that and I think you are a moral to end up an editor somewhere.
I'm sure we will be playing mistake free footy, clinical finishes to our sets and solid defensively. Lol
Is Dean Hawkins hurt to
Na both Moses and brown out, so Joash gets 6. Hawkins 7.
I need to know Eli, does that mean you accept Analysts story is true or you hope it is true? You talk like it is a hardline fact.
What do you think rather than prempting someone elses thinking.
Telegraph reporting that Joash will start at 6 but obviously it's not locked in yet. Maybe he won't be 6
How much do you think Luke Metcalf is worth? Should the Eels have a go at him and pay him over a million? He is front runner to win the Daly m medal. Only way I can see him leaving Warriors is for a ridiculous offer like what Dylan Brown got.
