    • Only thing in that favour is Martin is primarily a Left Winger so easier transition. But BA wont use him, i feel Lumelume and Dunster will be used before him.

      • Arthur sometimes has no idea

        • I cannot believe that Dunster is even in the conversation....we all saw last week at the first trial, he is deadset slow! just because he poked his head though a hole yesterday he is seemingly back into contention. Suicide!!

          My belief is that our Manly centre import is "headier" than any logical replacements and he would do a good job on Sivo's wing because he reads the game, has sound defence and can run twice as quick as Dunster.....he would also be very attuned to scoring the same tries as Sivo....you know the 90% that do not require Sivo's strength, don't lose sight of the fact that Sivo does know how to put himself in a position to score a try, even if he is a dumbass!

          That said I also like Hugh's idea of playing Ethyn Martin.....this is the way young breakouts get a look in, my guess is that BA is not brave enough, but I love the idea.

          • Well said and absolutely agree👍

          • Well put matey.

  • Sivo is one of those players that I have mixed feelings about.

    He can be a big moment player then one of the Laziest big men I've seen.

    Can pull off a big defensive effort then be a liability.

    Unfortunately Haze will come in and he's not 1st grade standard 

  • As much as Im fed up with Sivo's lack of involvement, anybody on this website tossing Dunster's name should be shot. That name should never don a 1st grade jersey for the Eels, especially in the outside backs. 

    Ofahiki Ogden would run him down on the wing

    • That's not an exaggeration Ogden would beat him over anything more than 5 metres.

    • Haha extreme but I like it...

  • Sivo is purely overrated in my opinion. I wasn't aware until now that he's been suspended for 3 weeks! Absolutely ridiculous! Have any other teams in the trials had players suspended? Seems the Eels have already been targeted before the season even begins! Disgraceful really! I don't believe during trial matches players should be suspended at all. I fine would be more feasible! I hope this isn't another 2023 where Eels players are suspended all the time.

"Exactly. If we were the best team in the comp draw is irrelevant. There is no hit job on us, it is simply we are a big draw card on ratings and crowds so we play the other big draw teams."

"Yep 100%. It should be home games for Brisbane, Dolphins and Titans at a minimum. You could argue for the Cowboys too. But no, Parra are like the dopey 5th mate who keeps doing everyone favours. "
