A Parramatta forward is close to being made official to be off to the Tigers in a swap deal which involved Matterson being allowed to go to Parramatta.
Better not be Nathan Brown!!!

It was rumored they wanted Kane Evans as a swap before matterson signed. I wonder if it could be Alvaro or Terepo or possibly a young gun??

We just sent Alvaro to Brisbane as the Eel's team representative for the announcement of Magic Round ticket sales. Can't imagine they'd send him if he was going.
Still, I'm calling BS on any swap. They might still have signed a young prop who hasn't been re-signed with the Eels yet from the development squad.
That photo is for the 2019 season that hadn't begun.

True. Wrong pic, but the point remains.

That pic had me tossed for a little while. I could not understand why a spoused up Jimmy Malony was doing there. He was supposed to be drinking warm beer and eating cold pies in England! The real picture is interesting, Nathan Cleary, the coach`s son gets the junket trip to Brisbane. There have been whispers that he will be made captain this year. So, nepotism is alive and well in the wild west
It's basically a zero sum deal. No one is better off and there has been no suggestion that Brownie has been unhappy at the club, just the opposite. Why would he want to leave unless the Tigers were offering him a lotto ticket ?
"Even if all that is true it is a good outcome that we didn't overextend ourselves. It's just as important to opt out on signing players who aren't a good fit for us. "
"Just like the Wayne Bennett deal to south's. If your going for big fish you've got to put the bait out there lure them in.
I suspect that's exactly what the Dogs did for Galvin and South's did for Bennett."

Why would you make that swap ?
