Yep. You need your depth players to be versatile. Its why Russel is so valuable right now. It really helps in building a strong and well rounded top 30. One thing about Havilii, as a middle he has a well known trait off always finding his front when being tackled. He very rarley gets put on his back.
I feel like our biggest issue is the loyalty of our fans. The NRL make so much off us when we are pathetic , the uplift of us being successful isn't as lucrative as a club with less loyal ( stupid ) fans. Take Penrith as an example . Pre their Dynasty , you'd be flat out knowing a single Penrith fan. Now there's about 5 or 6 kids in my sons footy team that are Panthers fans. These kids will be the future generation of now Eels fans. How did Wollongong get so many Eels fans my age ? Wollongong is full of us , it's because of the 80s domination.
Right now , The NRL don't need to have a successfull Parramatta , we have shitloads of fans who keep throwing our money at the NRL no matter how shit we are and how badly the NRL treat us.
"Yeah starts next September, if I was Lomax I'd wait and see how the first round of players goes and maybe make the move in 2027, eels do have to actually grant the release so they hold all the cards. Guys who are off contract can just go "

This signing will push us into top 4 contenders next year
To be fair, the way the comp is , it wouldn't shock me to see us sitting 1st at seasons end in 2026. It all comes down to what the NRL want.,
If the NRL decides why not have Parra become a dynasty like Penrith? The amount of money they make on our fanbase and ratings?

"Wollongong is full of us"
That's a hell of a lot of shit Wizzy!!!
Where was the bullshit poppop? It seems spot on to me
If its in zero tackle then it must be true
Could be worse he could be 33
