The missing piece

By the looks of things, Kpritchard is turning into an 80minute hooker.If last nights performance is anything to go off, i dont think we really need injury prone Nathan Peats. Although it would be nice to have him as well.I think the thing we lack formost right now is an intimidating big man who causes the defence nightmares. However there are none of those on offer at the end of this season.At the end of 2018 however Shannon Boyd & Junior Paulo are available.I feel like we have a solid team right now, one that can last us until the end of next season at which time we could shell out some attractive dollars for either Shannon Boyd or Junior Paulo maybe even both if we resist the temptation on wasting money on players we dont really desperately need between now and then.This is what Parra lack more than anything -1. http://www.raiders.com.au/news/2016/11/03/season_review_junior.html2. http://www.raiders.com.au/news/2016/10/20/season_review_shanno.htmlImagine having bothProbably unlikely but i like to dream1.

  • We already signed Kane Evans for size
    • Hes not enough. Hes not a terror in attack. Hes an excellent bench weapon behind guys like boyd and paulo
      .
    • And Meehan is a possible
  • On another note, if the club was smart, they must lock up Nathan Brown right now.

    Just as the Dragons did with Vaughn - smart club's lock the best long term.

    Let's hope Bernie is smart enough.
    • No doubt about it Chief. Top priority right now.
    •  Chief: I agree. Also, Clint Gutherson should be tied up. I know his contract has been extended by the Eels but you can bet on it that Manly will offer him a squllion to break his contract and go home to Manly. Hard to resist such temptations.

    • Put french and gutho on 5 year plus congrats
    • Contracts
  • Dont agree re Kaysa but agree we need a monster like a Asofa Solamona, Jordan McClean, Junior Paulo or Warera Hargreaves.
    Its important to have someone that big, that's why i think Melbourne will win it this year - monster pack but very mobile and fast.

  • I dont think any player on offer after 2017 is going to be the keys to our premiership drout. I say we develop and sharpen our current squad and make no more buys and go balls to the wall for 2 x terrorising prop forwards for 2019.
    Sharpen our squad and add two destroyers up front and we will win a comp by 2020 i guarantee it

    Im hearing that the eels are trying to buy Daniel Toupou from the roosters.
    This is utter stupidity by parra if they do. We dont need another outside back we have a razor sharp backline already. We need 2 x nightmare front rowers thats all we are missing
