He's been realy good since 2019 and contributed immensely last year. This he's missed many games.
Would love to have kept him but for the right $$$. I'm quite sure the Warriors are paying him way over his market value otherwise why leave a club which is on the brink of a premieship and go to another who's been chopping and changing the last 2 years?
Evans has been really good value the last 2 years. As much as I'd like to keep him, I also think Parra have ideas of where they'd like to invest that $450K we're paying him every year. From what I'm hearing Eels are looking to free up the cap space from Evans, Alvaro, and Gennings. To be honest, I think this is a good opportunity for us to make a play at TPJ. With the right coaching, culture, and team around him he could be an absolute bargain for our squad. Either that, or I think Eels are looking at another piece of the puzzle.
It doesn't change the better part of the last three years, but we won the 2026 Witzer Pre-season Challenge on the back of some encouraging trial form.
Gus Gould says trial results mean nothing. What matters is physicality, fitness and energy within…

Pity he has been good when not injured
I agree, but the injury part is a problem.

Who takes his bench spot or who would be a good signing for it?

TPJ?
Tevita Pangai Junior. Will need to lift a lot in form I would suggest, the aspect of him being under contract for 2021/2 would be interesting
Hmmm yeh I'm not sure about him. Can do great things, good offloads etc. Can also do lots of stupid stuff.
Good riddance
