Just in case you needed to feel some of that good old fashioned Eels disappointment on a by week, have a read of this article:
Brilliantly written as always from the RL Eye Test, but far out does it strike at the heart. Here's a flavour of the article just to whet the appetite:
Agile middles with good lateral mobility are worth a premium, and the Eels don’t really have any of them. They have an excellent forward pack for the late 2010s, but an abysmal one for the mid 2020s.
Ah man it sucks to be an Eels fan.

He is still SG bal eligible this year. Was on the bench in origin under 19 last year. Will probs make the under 19 squad again this year. Real potential.
He has great potential considering our middles are ageing. Don't worry though he is learning a lot playing Flegg, he will be ready for NRL in no time, we will just play Ron Massey forwards or low potential forwards on the bench instead.
