Recruitment and Retention and signings

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, despite the fact that I do see improvements in the squad, but we are still way off the mark.  I am stunned by this statement and we must have so much money available for the right players to improve this squad yet we appear to be doing risky squat! I truly hope there are some things going on in the background but if we keep status quo, we are in a word of pain for years to come. The fact that we still have no decent replacement for Dylan Brown says it all.  I am getting beyond frustrated. We lack serious impact forwards and a quality 6 and centre.  Are we just sitting and hoping or is the Club going to come up with something?  One concerned and frustrated life long eels fan here.

  • Why would any decent player want to come play for us? No honestly? The surrounding suburbs are trash. 
    We havent been successful in 40 years..
    No one grows up wanting to play for us, we are mediocre on our best day.
    We are simply a team that makes up the numbers.

    You will be alot happier as a fan if you accept this. 

    • Ok, so why you here if you have accepted it and obviously never going to win again.

      If Wests can get Luai to go there we can get players. All it takes is one influencial player. But to answer your question, money or opportunity or both. Who cares about the suburbs you do not need to live in Parramatta. Gutho lived at Manly his whole time at the club.

      • Well you could live at Rooty Hill or Mt. Druitt and travel to training at the Eels that alone should attract quality players
