"Agreed, LB.
The Eels made the GF in 2001, 2009 and 2022. Basically a great roster every decade! It's fair to want to shorten that, say every half decade. But this whole outbreak of monday morning quarterbacking club officials as if it's a linear,…"

"Muttman, spot on with effort wins. Its not sustainable and you get found out. Talent and effort wins comps neither one on its own can win a comp. We need both and then so much more to go right."
"Bell is a gun. We need to resign D Walker for another 2 years so till the end of 2028. So 2029, Bell will be 20 years old. Good chance he will be pressing for the 14 spot to take Walker's spot. He can cover 9 well too."

I haven't seen anything official, and even if he does resign, he's not doing it out of any sense of loyalty, he's doing it because it is the best thing for him, as he should.
Sometimes showing loyalty and having a sense of loyalty is the best thing for a person. Obviously not at the expense of commonsense and within reason.
Look, I'm not saying that a player being loyal to his club is wrong, I think its fantastic. It shows we are building a club that players want to be loyal to.
That is a good thing.
I just don't like people expecting players to be loyal.
"I just don't like people expecting players to be loyal."
Yes Brett --same could be said about people expecting players to go for the paycheque alone. Lots of variables to consider in what is the best fit for individual values. Some things money simply can,t buy.. For Moses in HOE,s blog he had no hesitation in saying the premiership trophy with Parra was his only goal.
Much easier decision to make when your playing for the club you supported as a kid. Not many players have that luxury.
Great to have him on board.
To be fair Gordo he had no other genuine option.
The Broncs was no real option, could have wrecked his career.
Hed have had to move everything and carry the weight of a club in termoil, would have fucked him.
He looks happy here and has a lot less pressure here, not worth a few hundred k to take a huge gamble like that.
He wasnt going anywhere.
What is this blog about?
What has Moses supposed to have done?
