Joash set for his starting debut

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."

    • I agree he's leaving anyway. If papa shines this might be the kick-start of our season.

    • Unless he is completely out of his depth (which I doubt - Ryles wouldn't have chosen him otherwise) this is the backline we should stick with for the remainder of the season. I'd also be happy with Sean Russell slotting in alongside JAC as per usual. We need to be thinking further ahead than just the result of the next match.

        • Can we please give Coryn a few weeks off from this site Super? Reading her posts will cause many fans having to pay for depression medications, and she's sounding like a broken record since the demise of her much loved sacked coach. 

          • Reality medication equals me.

            Contradiction and hope n dreams equal you.

            • I meant it to be a joke only Coryn,  something i shouldn't be joking about anyway.  I wish you the best with everything 

    • Agree I don't think Brown should play 6 again this year he is gone at the end of the season put him on the bench and try out others at 6 start planning for next year

Ryles states he is is no rush to make signings! I am sorry, but we have an L plate coach who sees no rush? Really, we are second last on a ladder. We will be lucky to avoid the spoon. Unless something changes we have no change on last season,…

Yehez replied to Eli Stephens's discussion Joash at 5/8 can go one of two ways,
"Lookl, we bought Joash before knowing Dylan was off. Plus we really pushed for Galvin. All this tells me Ryles would rather someone else.
Now the emergence of Talataina, Volkman gaining fitness and form, and the option of Twidle also means that an…"
