  • Don't think there will be any signings until the cap is offical


    You don't want the club to sign a plodder only to realise you can get Klemmer in a fire sale for the same price
  • Yes, but not until we know how much we can spend.  There will be a merry-go-round of players moving clubs in the off season and we will buy some players. 

    - Evans is signed. 

    - Meehan most likely will be resigned on an upgraded contract. 

    - A left winger will be signed. 

    - Maybe a backup hooker will be signed. 

    We don't know the futures of Frank the Tank, Gower and IDG and all three could move on.  If all three move on we will chase experienced replacements. 

    • I thought I heard IDG had unofficially retired...not sure where I heard or read it .
  • I know we are going to sign a few, theres definitely going to be one or two quality players coming in, weve got money to spend and are in a good position cap wise.

    I think theres a good chance Junior Paulo will be one of the quality signings.

    I also think we will be signing a few more projects and under the radar players that Brads got earmarked at other clubs.

    We should be quite active on the player market.

    • J. Paulo a quality signing, Phffff!
    • I hope so.  Jr Paulo would be a good signing.  We may not sign another hooker to back up Kaysa and King as we have a very good young hooker in the u20's that may be groomed. 

      Hayne may return to the club as I will suspect he will ask to move on in the off season. 

      Curtis Rona is being chased by a Sydney NRL Club and I guess that is us due to Semi going. 

      We had a lot of guys on 1 year contracts this year so we might see a few move on next year. 

    • Snake can you give info on who we are chasing? I'm really hoping Junior comes back. 

  • The Eels already have signed a couple of players for next season.
  • LOL, Remember when you used to do this as Monts lol?
