Semi Radradra

Stumbled across this post on one the Eels Facebook groups and it really caught my attention and made some interesting claims.

 

"Okay believe me If you want to if you don’t I couldn’t care.

I am coaching a Fijian rugby league team for a nines competition. One of the guys is best mates with semi (likely story I know) however when we trained a couple of weeks ago semi called him and they were talking on the phone. It was FaceTime there was proof.

Long story short. Semi is done with rugby union he is homesick. He has proved the point he wants to prove. He wants to come back to Australia and really wants to come back to parramatta. He doesn’t care about the money it means nothing to him. The only reason he went to rugby was because it’s Fiji’s national sport and what he grew up playing and loving.

It’s up to the club if they sign semi. But this I can guarantee you. The only way we miss out on semi is if the club decides not to sign him. It won’t be money related for him to go elsewhere.

This is the reason that Jennings has not he re-signed."

 

 

What do you think? Will Semi return to the Eels, if it comes down to a choice who are you choosing Jennings or Radradra?

          • Seriously Poppa, what a crock of shit response. 

        • Pops shares some really exceptional cartoons! They have made Fong the man he is today! 

        • I like his cartoons. Chill pill mate, swallow one!

  • It's not about money, he doesn't care about money, hmmmm, is that why he was always asking for more money each and every year after he signed a new upgraded contract last time he was here?.

  • I would sign Semi and have him and Sivo on the wings and push Fergo into the centres with Waqa and forget about Mennings (don't re sign him).

  • Semi > Jenko
