  •  Ogden is interesting. Thought they'd keep him for next season at least. Must be promoting the young guys as our back ups.

    • Shame but not surprising. They've already got enough middle forwards in Paulo, RCG, Offa, Greig and Makatoa. Personally I'd prefer Ogden over Makatoa but I guess Makatoa is already signed and on the payroll, so harder to get rid of. 

  • Ogden didn't really get much chance to play. He's behind Makatoa. It's not all that surprising honestly, which is a shame. Happy to hear about Greig, less so about Cartwright. But it's good to have options.

    • If your behind Makatoa that tells you enough 

      • Yeah. I don't dislike ogden either. He reminds me a bit of that Broncos player from a few years ago. George Fai?

    • I mean fair, we don't need any middles but we need backs more lol.

    • Eels make 'MAJOR MOVE'

      😂😂😂.

      I'd like to see their definition of a small move.

  • Greig and Cartwright were must re-signings. I got concerned with Greig being rumoured to be talking to Souths.

    Ogden is an odd one though. I believe it is simply money, though he wouldn't of been on much. JJBM and Moretti are cheaper and also the same or better. Probably save 100k letting Ogden walk.

    • Yep let Ogden go and promote JBBM
