Thomas Jenkins

I have no inside intel or contacts within rugby league circles, but this is one rumour I keep seeing in different parts of the internet.  Social media, Penrith forums, other eels forums etc.

Milky Jenkins apparently is going to sign a 3 year deal with Parra. Again I don't know how true this is. He'd be a good addition.  Yes he plays on the end of a dominant team and yes he was average at Newcastle. But he was also a kid. He's matured and coming into the peak years of his career. Quick, great in the air and often makes 200m a game.  Something we are lacking. I'd love for this to be true.

      • I feel like you aren't reading everything that I have been saying haha. First you ask where did I read that when I literally said on different fan sites plus social media. Now my first four words were "for what its worth" ie take it with a grain of salt. I am more than aware of Kent's prediction of Galvin.

        I do think that is a different situation. There were more clubs going for him. I can't imagine Moses Suli has 3 clubs wanting to spend close to a mil on him. And by all reports Galvin didn't even know the night before. He was all but signed with Parra. His dad was convinced.  Had a last minute change.

         

        But back to Suli. Its just a rumour. Better to discuss rumour target's as opposed to multiple blogs on how shit our r and r is.

        • Though with Suli it's not a case of him wanting to break the deal, he was tapped. So unless Parra got onto him earlier and then he nudged for a early release and Saints said yeah all sweet. But at this stage those who want him more likely are only starting to look now.

      • Insight and intellectual as always.

      • Get the shovel, chief burried again. You've gotta get sick of looking silly mate? Honestly not saying he's  doesn't have a point sometimes but do you get sick of people clowning on ya sometimes right? 

  • I have said and still am wary of him outside of Penrith. But also an argument can be made on skill and form he is the best back on the market right now. So I do not blame Parra going for him. This is a high risk high reward signing. At least still young enough too.

    One shining light is last time he left Penrith he had only 6 NRL games under his belt. So will be more confident as a player.

  • again  I must  say  , who ever  comes  to  parramatta  , I can only  hope  they  can improve and take  their  game  to another level  under  parra's  coaching staff. ....... if not  S.O.S  the  f#%k for  that HAYNE  guy. FFS  !!  surely  J.Ryles can benefit some sort of input 🤔..again  just saying. 

  • Doesn't Jenkins play on the left? Fox is also a left sided player. I don't see it happening sorry. Happy to be proven wrong but sides matter and I don't think Fox can play on the right as effective
