It's clear to see that the Eels have massive holes in their roster. All of us Eels fans have gone through poor recruitment and questionable junior retention for decades now. Everybody has dreams for things that would make life better for their families and themselves. So let's dream that we could fill some holes in the Eels squad.
Pick any 3 outside backs from the following
Bronson Xerri
Jaxon Purdue
Jamayne Isaako
Herbie Farnworth
Kotoni Staggs
Bradman Best
Latrell Mitchell
Kl Iro
Taylan May
Casey McLean
Brian To'o
Tolutau Koula
The Eels also need a five eighth
Matt Burton
Ethan Strange
Fletcher Sharpe
As for middles, there is 2 Eels juniors playing elsewhere and both would be improvements on what we have.
Trey Mooney
Alex Twal
Plus the Eels need a strike edge forward. There are plenty in the game, but none at the Eels.

With the backs. Farnworth, Purdue and To'o
6 I'd go with Strange, but any of them would be great.
Forwards yeah either for now.
The young Manly 7 played really well against the Panthers this evening. His name is Joe Walsh or Joey Walsh. Same name as the Eagles ( Music band) guitarist Joe Walsh who by the way was an extremely great guitarist. Hotel California and his own song/album Rocky Mountain Way. Anyway young halfback did a great job. Unfortunately Manly got beat by 2 Points but probably should have won. The referee gave some real freebies 'repeat Sets' to Penrith
Obviously ignored the Cleary obstruction for Manly's 3rd try.
I like this dream game. It masks the nightmare we eels fans live with daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, decade-ly.
Burton - Staggs- Mitchell
If you want to be competitive, you throw everything at Herbie Farnworth and Dylan Lucas. Everything.
Farnworth is a must, Purdue, Mclean
6 Strange
forward any as we need better
Farnworth. Give him the keys.
