''BLOKES don't have best mates,'' said Eels veteran Nathan Hindmarsh yesterday with the cheeky
This is the top 25 for 2011, not in any particular order ( ? for players not sure are still with eels 2011). If anyone knows of any i missed please add.
Well we now have the ying and yang of Prop rotation,first we have the 2 most aggressive running fowards known in the NRL Webb and Fui two bookends that would pretty much F@*k any defensive line up.Then youv'e got the nice guys Mannah and Poore two of
I am a die hard EELS supporter but I don't see us getting QC. I feel management should concentrate on the up and coming stars we have and we have signed. I would like to see Tim Humble at 5/8, Brad Murray @ 1/2 and Morts & Ant Mitchell rotating
Eric Grothe Jnr is on the Matty John's show tonight. I hope he is going to sing the tribute he did to Nathan Cayless at last nights presentation. Congrats to Jarryd Hayne on winning the Ken Thornett Medal and to all the other winners.
I see Penrith are trying to secure Lachlan Coote. He is contacted till 2011
I think its quite obvioius that Hayne will eventually move into the 5/8th role. Should we be looking at signing a quality fullback such as Coote in order to move Hayne to 5/8
I was watching the NSW cup replay last night when Wenty were playing the storm. Tommy Humble was playing 5/8 and carved the sh!t out of the storm. Why the hell is he still doing down there. IMO he should be playing 5/8 in NRL. Put Mort's on the bench
"I saw him for NSW Funa-Iuta and found his movement lacked and wasn't agile enough for the edge, missed a couple of tackles against more speedy runners. I can see him as a middle.
Talagi I think you're right about that he could just stay in Flegg…"
"Funa Luta was probably our best player. He is developing really well. Works his ass off today in defence which is something many others didn't do today. But I will maintain this again, he will be a better middle than edge from what I have seen. Just…"
"I'm not up to date on our juniors as such, but the bottom line EA is with our overall structure, we should have a huge back up base of juniorplayers. It seems that other areas complimentary to ourselves pull them out of their arses.
This is one area…"
"EA, as usual i ask, how did Funa-Iuta and Talagi go starting? I see Funa-Iuta played most if not all the game.
Also, is Shane-Tapau worth a consideration in future or just making numbers at the moment?"
