"Oh yeah it could have started with us reaching out wanting long term, Pezet saying he wanted to play 7, Brisbane coming in and wanting him but not til 2027. He either stayed at Melbourne for 2026 or played FG at Parramatta in 2026 and we felt there…"
"Fair enough, Adam. Also, I agree with you that Walker has the footy IQ to be a stop-gap. Not sure it'll come to that though. Still, I suspect Ryles likes high-IQ halves; even at six.

"I don't think they're preferencing either right now. Renzo got an opportunity in NSW Cup last season and given our focus on finding a long-term 5/8 I think he's probably further ahead development-wise. Renzo has been extended to the end of 2028 and…"

"LB, good post mate. The thing is: Reality trumps whatever we agree or disagree with. Roosters signed DCE for a year. Panthers signed Lussick for a year. We signed Pezet for a year.

"We must really really have some talent in our next gen pathways. Looking forward to that, actually long term strategy plays a huge part here. If youngsters feel they will get a shot at first grade, then they are more likely to come to the Eels as 15…"

"We have him for a season enjoy the ride. If he kicks the winning field goal against the Storm first round we'll all say what a master stoke. "

Mick and Peter Mortimer sat directly behind me at the 09 grand final, absolutely top shelf bloke, they were both very pleasant and quite happy to chat.
This man "THE CROW" is my all time fav EEL. When I played rep league as a youngster I tried to mould my gam and goal kicking around him
Very classy player and man 👏🏻👏🏻👊😎
Theres the carlo kiss of death right there.
Mick, please be safe in the next few days/weeks.
😆😆😆 far out lol
Bit overrated though, wouldnt want him kicking a goal to save your life.
Wouldnt want him coaching to save your life either

As a centre he was defensively flawless and was impossible to put on the ground when carrying the ball.
i was just throwing out a few crumbs HKF, looking for a nibble
Nice one Garry, good to see you got out ok, rumoured to be a few bodies buried under the Gerringong.
Your opionion mate. To be honest It was mentioned by the rep coach back in 84 when I played school rep footy that I played a bit similar to the crow. My all time fav and always will be
