"Question, why has it taken til now, where he is 22 and scored a double on debut for clubs to want him? I know clubs would have spruked interest beforehand but he is going to Perth who have struggled forming a squad.

""Stay at the Eels on less money to be our 3rd back up fullback. Why would you join a club offering you more money where your path to FG is more open?"
Pretty convincing sell?"

Most of the members here either agree with that assessment or are willing to go along;

"I think Apa will be a very good first grader.
How would you have pitched it to him to stay Mutt? Genuinely, how would you sell Apa on staying if you were Football Manager?"

"Agree, I've already said my piece in a earlier blog, this kid showed his class already, we are all hoping these other 'super talents' that haven't played first grade as yet do similar. "
"We can't keep everyone. Even if they blow up, we can't keep everyone.
We got Iongi and Hopgood from Penrith. Penrith at their pinnacle. They still let guys of that quality go.
We have plenty of outside backs and halves coming through. Even Papalii…"

"Why are you being sensible though when you can ragebait EA?
I agree btw. This is alright and good for all parties. We have heaps of interesting backs coming through (Davis, Bamblett, Seuseu, Bloomfield, Martin) that can all play fullback. Pretty…"

"What can I say but good luck to the kid. I loved his 20 minute cameo in a game that it was raining fire and brimstone.
I think he could have done a job for us on the wing or centre since Rusty is leaving."

"Well how do we know MON was the main reason for him going? If Ryles really wanted to keep Twidle he would have said to MON to keep him. Therefore a proper deal could have been done earlier.
You said MON should go, what if Ryles was the one who…"

"I trust your judgement EA.
I just meant that body maturity of Joash is from 2 to 3 solid years of Cup fixtures getting belted around where Apa lacks that amount of exposure thus far."

"Lots of Renzo miss tackles is similar to Volkman last week. He rushed out the line and makes strong contact to slow the attacker down whilst his teammates then come to make the tackle."
"Imagine how Panthers have been feeling for the past 5 years lol"
"Thanks LB, HOWEVER, Unless there is an inside info about that, we will be speculating. What just irks me is that we have developed Twidle, spent time and effort to at least his current performance level and some other team will just benefit from it.…"
"MON is ass, but i agree this wasn't his fault same with the Blaize one just simillar situations i guess."
"Nah he is worth more than 80k. He is better than a development contract. He deserves a top 30 contract to be the back up fullback at a club. I do not think he is a starter in any position for any club."
Irony is Even Deader

Welp, Ricky won't be happy his boy is in trouble
A Weak guttered dog
I'm surprised the headline isn't
" Ex Parramatta half-back Paul Kent charged with domestic violence "
I think this is called "reaping what you sow".
I wonder whether the media will respect the legal process or whether they'll take a leaf from Kent's book and just throw around lots of unsubstantiated rumours?
Guess we won't be seeing him on NRL360 tonight!
