" Tough choice as I don't think there's an outright stand out.
Ma'u got my vote simply because he was a personal favourite and the list so far lacks mongrel."

"An organisation should always be looking to improve itself. If that means getting rid of a person to get a better person then so be it.
Question is this: is Richardson the best person for our specific role?"

"Sarantinos is not on Eels board I believe so he doesn't fit within the 9 year rule. It said in the constitution that members of the board serve 3 years and can serve an additional 2x3 year terms, so 9 years.
But Sarantinos is not elected of course…"

"I hope you're right Paul. Need to end the drought "

"Chatter on Tago to Eels getting louder but i actually do not want Lomax going to Penrith in a swap as that means he more likely wins a comp and do not want him rewarded hahaha. But also, i feel if we hang on long enough, with Tago being on so much…"

"We'll also be looking for a new ceo next year too won't we as JS has done 8 years on the Parra board and by constitution 9 is the most they can stay on it.Please correct me if I'm wrong.
MoN why bother getting rid of him now why have we just…"

"Ummm when Penrith signed him he was playing park footy in Newcastle. At the time we were rebuilding it would have been a dud signing opinion by most here. 
Unless you were talking about when Alamoti came in for him late in the year, in that case…"

"Though I believe they wouldn't want to take the risk of Brown leaving. That's now changed with Ryles but Moses more so was sweetened with captaincy and be committed.
but also who is to say we wanted him as a 6 and he wanted to be a 6? Similar to…"

"Big difference, Fogarty had a year left on his deal. Moses and Brown, regardless of options or not, had several with no guarantee that either will leave.
Now you say vision of Brown at Lock, well they wouldn't of done that as Brown would have not…"

"Parra want to keep Sanders. You go to Brown and say we need you to commit today and take your options off the table. If he hesitates you give him permission to shop around. Either way it needs to get resolved because we have a young half we do not…"

"Yep great write up.  Exactly why we need to get Richardson.  "

"Good to hear!"

"It was, as he had control of his contract. If you are Sanders' agent and Parra say here is a 3 year deal til 2027. You see Moses signed til 2028 with options and Brown til 2031 with options. But Canberra have a 3 year deal with Fogarty having one…"
