If you could pick any player from a club to join eels which one would you choose currently ? For me Manu is someone I'd love at parra. 🤣 Just someone who is a serious threat out wide but can also cover 3/4 spots in the team at a pinch.Â

Agreed, Olam's defence last week was poor too.
Moses Leota
Semi Radradra
I'm a big Herbie Farnworth fan, I'll go with him.
I'm happy with our halves, even though they've under performed this year, and most of our pack.
In my estimations Herbie would offer us a bit of x factor and class in our backline which we currently lack.
Outside of him, I'd like to see Khan Perriera running off Moses or a Gutho cut out pass.
Speed and X factor we sorely missingÂ
Not Olam
James Fisher Harris or Lindsay Collins.
JFH and RCG in a pack for Parra would dominate foward battles and field position. Our lack of speed wouldn't be as big an issue as it is when we are on the back foot. When our forwards dominate we look like much better side.
Also Lindsay Collins, don't know how he isn't talked about amongst best forwards. Makes game changing plays in defence and attack more then any other front frower. Isnt massive on metres or stats most count but always there when needed. Coming into his best footy and will replace JWH as roosters leader.
Haas is most people's best foward choice but there will be plenty of similar players over next few years with massive size and motor. Haas doesn't seem to have intimidation factor or JFH or footy smarts and respect of Collins.

Semi Radrada. It's not impossible if we could get either Channel Nine or Fox to sponsor him like they sponsor other players. When Billy Slater retired the first people he thanked in his speech were his long term sponsors Channel Nine. That may infer that Fox are also sponsoring some elite players which means the broadcasters are actually deciding which teams are successful via direct player sponsorship. I personally think that it is very muddy waters when broadcasters are sponsoring players as it virtually gives them the power to decide what clubs will be successful. Were the current comentary teams recipients of broadcaster sponsorships during their playing days that included a guarranteed on camera position when they retire? If Parramatta were playing last night there would have been 75,000 people in the crowd instead of just 30,000, which included a lot of free giveaway tickets. Can we convince one of the broadcasters to sponsor Semi back to Parramatta? Can we convince one of the betting companies to sponsor Semi? Semi would put bums on seats, increase television ratings and increase the betting pool via top try scorer, first try scorer etc.Semi would also attract international betting interest. We just need someone with the necessary connections to get it done. I don't understand why we don't have the vision to push this. We have the largest fan base in the comp and we should use it as a bargaining tool. Â
Farnworth or Staggs......but the reality is we tried and FAILED, no quality player wants an eels jersey......and thats a FACT
