Qualifying Final This arvo

Hey guys,

Just away from the mighty eels for a moment. Want to wish my son all the best in the qualifying final imnsoccer (yes soccer) this afternoon. As many of you may remember I coached him for over 10 years and made rep soccer after all people said park soccer players are not good enough. I never had the money to put him in expensive academies but hey. We got there. He is now in Premier League and his team finished undefeated minor prems.

Hell On Eels replied to Steel be with you's discussion The Parramatta Eels vs Melbourne Storm Rivalry
"Steel, I'm actually watching it right now.  Keep it up, mate.
As you've pointed out we've never beaten them in the finals (0-7). We've also lost the last 7-straight against them.
It was satisfying getting the better of them in the Lomax saga, and it…"

"It's funny when you look at Penrith sides over the last 5 years they haven't really had any speedsters. They are usually strong, powerful and athletic but not particularly quick"

"Bevs biggest issue when he was young and playing nrl was that he was too timid to try and explode through half a gap at risk of getting smashed because of his size. I definitely reckon he'd go alright back in the NRL now"

"Thanks, Steel. 
Don't worry about cheap shots and knockers, mate. 
Keep going. I've watched some of your videos.
You've put thought and research into it.
Thanks for sharing that, Steel."

Angry Eel replied to Eli Stephens's discussion Metcalf Dragons bound.
"7s are worth any perceived risk. A good 7 can turn your whole team around instantaneously, we know better than anyone. I don't think Penrith would cover Cleary as well as they used to with all the quality players they've lost. Still a good side but…"

"I understand the price and Dragons going for him. Though he is a one year wonder. He will be 28 and had injury history. It is a gamble. However, St. George are in the position where they need to gamble."

"The bulldogs should of done everything to offload Burton for Metcalf. Sexton is no world beater but look how far backwards Canterbury have gone since replacing him with a rookie 5/8"

"Long term contracts are too risky with props. It's very rare to see a prop at the top of his game year after year. Parra were right to not go the extra year on this occasion. I don't disagree sometimes you have to pay a bit extra to get the deal…"

"Yes, good points PG....someone like French has become more of power player based on his speed that he always had and then his filling out. Nikorama falls into that category as well and I am sure there are a number of others some can think up."

"I think you miss the point Adam in that metrics is a result, its identifying the body types and bringing the ones through that are being seen as succesful in this new age. Thats more the point of what the blog is about."

"Yeah good point. It's Halfback tax. Half decent ones garner big money. If you don't have a Halfback a 7.5/10 one gets same as a 9/10 Halfback just by how important the position is. I beg Boyd nearly tripled his salary in his NZ extension basically…"

Metcalf Dragons bound.

Bulldogs have pulled out of the race for Metcalf and his asking price is around 1 million dollars. Dragons most likely spot but to get him immediately I wonder if this means they will allow Sua to join us early to free up cap space to get Metcalf…
