Parramatta Fringe Players

Does anyone know whether or not these players will be with the club next season?

- Lee Te Maari
- Pele Peletelese
- Manese Manuokafoa
- Taniela Lasalo
- Brendan Oake

I have heard somewhere that Oake has been released but not 100% sure?

  • You're correct Camo that Oake has been released.

    Lasalo if I remember correctly is with us until at least the end of 2011.
    My guess would be that Manase is also with us still, as he was in the Eels training video on the Eels site.

    Not 100% sure about Te Maari or Pele though.
  • WHAT?

    Oakey has been released?

    Since when?!

    NOOOOOOOO.

    This is surprising - I thought he would have been a perfect and hardworking replacement for Hindy.

    : (
  • seriously tinker,what the! He's NO replacement 4 hindy!
  • Yeah, pretty sure he has been released Tinks.
    It's a shame to hear, but I guess he was surplus to requirements at the club.
  • I don't think that anyone can possibly replace Hindy. What he brings to our team is almost immeasurable.

    However, we need to look to the future - and Oakey works hard, doesn't let anyone down when he plays, is solid defensively and on not much coin.

    When Hindy goes, someone needs to be there to fill his shoes - and I think Oakey would have done well.
    • True that Tinks.
      I think now that Oake has unfortunately left, we could see the club grooming guys like Patrick O'Hanlon and Rory Brien as the players to step up when he departs.

      Sometimes, it's just how it is Tinks.
      You still have Mitchell don't worry! :P
      • : D

        I still have Shack, and Mitchell, and Justin Poore and Ben Smith.

        I think that I'll survive.. just.

        Although I am very excited about Patrick O'Hanlon! : ) Perhaps I can adopt him too!
        • Nah, already got dibs on that, haha.
          I've met him, and his incredibly humble for a young kid.
          Really looking forward to seeing him get a crack at some stage in 2011 to prove his worth.
          Same with Rory Brien too.
          • Surely we can BOTH adopt him.

            He'll get positivity overload. ; )
            • Fair enough, sounds good.
              Well, a young and upcoming player can never have too much positivity right?
