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.

Where'd you see this?
Another eels fan blogging pages, a few Penrith blogs on the same site and then just Facebook comments etc. Like I stated not much evidence but it has been a rumour that stated up about 2 months ago and hasn't left yet.
I agree with your sentiments on him (if this is true), would be a handy signing. Need maybe 2 more but Su'A and Jenkins is a nice start. I would have loved to see us try for Averillo but again that's not the end of the world, I'd be quite happy with Jenkins, Su'A with maybe someone like an Izack Tago and Spencer Leniu.
Suli
The four players you mentioned if all do come accross will make a difference , Jenkins on the wing with the fox on the other wing will make it one of the best wing pairings in the league, Tago with Samarini in the centres would be solid & Spencer & SuÁ in the forwards would be good together adding to this if we can get Burton here to play 6 to partner moses it would make us eels fans happy. Still some weak spots to fill but it be a good start
Much better option than moses suli, I just hope to god eels go this way instead of a saints has been
If you listen to Paul Kent podcast today he said Suli is going to Parramatta. Now before we burn CommBank alight, he also said Galvin to Eels was 100% done and look how that turned out.
If the case, Ryles' leaning on old mate Creagh for signings is worrying.
For what its worth Kenty has said he reckons Moses Suli is 3 quarters signed for us.
I also remember him saying Lachlan Galvin was certain to be a Parramatta Eel. How'd that go?
Just said that Jack. Look if we get Jenkins and say Leniu, Suli is not a great signing but also there are much worse. If we just got Suli then yeah not good.
