"Most players at 16 who are touted as future stars fail. It is because the players who dominate at that age are usually the biggest and strongest or those who developed early. Even as they get to 19 years old more than half of the U19s SOO players…"
"Exactly, Pou. Our self-cannibalisation was our undoing, even if Sharp didn't intend to harm the club with his fan-wooing, "I will do whatever it takes to return the club to the glory days" slogans.

"Yep, and the only way they are revealed is through whistleblowers, or dumb players running their mouth as in the case of James Maloney at Penrith a few years ago. Clubs without whistleblowers are internally united, which is the opposite of the den…"
"Still doesn't explain how we are spending the minimum mandatory required amount of the cap whilst (as you state) pay most of our players minimum expected amounts. "
"The Eels are locking in large bundles of juniors long-term with clear pathways to NRL contracts. They also started to use Dr Goldman's US-based assessment tools for juniors. Goldman has worked with the Warriors (think Stephen Curry), NFL teams & top…"
"I get your frustration, however this is not reality, teams have always gone after kids from various areas. First and foremost our club needs to work out who to retain and keep and then those to bring in. I for one am glad Ryles has done what he has…"
"Remember years ago, c. 2018-20, when the NRL used to publish "official" TPAs? One year, the Eels had more than the Roosters, who had something like 70K or whatever. Politis would've been chuckling. I was. It's telling the NRL don't even bother…"
"A soft cap would help level the playing field, and help us on the 'big name" recruitment side, even if it's impossible to ever have a truly level playing field and players look for many things besides money.
But I don't think the powerbrokers at the…"

"Good blog, Bluey. Your concerns are fair. Where we differ is what “all in” means. I don’t think we are "all in" only on juniors. We are "all in" trying to improve across the whole footy spectrum.

"Yes, there is no doubt that is what happens and elsewhere LB.
We have benefactors out there, or we should have that could be approached to do similar things.

"Now will some of the people on here that believe the bullshit they put out on salaries and other so called news remember that whatever they quote is going to have a certain degree of "crap" about it!!

"Bingo. I've been in media boxes and overheard well known journos saying they've made up news because they didn't have anything. Or the journos do no digging beyond asking the manager. And managers will say whatever they need to get their client a…"
"We shouldn't need to go to the Central Coast. But if Easts are using that area as their predominant development area, they should be relocated there. Same with Melbourne. It's a joke having a team planted in a geographical location where they don't…"
"While the focus is on juniors, as that is where you can offset the likes of the Roosters who poach talent, and close the gap from a salary cap perspective, we don't turn our nose up at recruiting externally where required.
Iongi a good example. We…"

"Melb are only seeing some locally produced come on now; we all know Melb is not RL; Easts the same and while frustrating they saw the Central Coast and pounced when others like us didn't."

Reliance on Juniors as our Pathway to Glory vs Signing Talented 1st Graders
In recent times, it is becoming obvious that the power brokers at the Eels see our junior pathways, as our path to future glory and probably rightly so. We see new full time coaching staff / Eels scouts across the country and scholarships for…

Todd Greenburg and the NRL...
A boy comes down stairs and asks his dad for $10 to go to the shops and grab an ice cream with his mates. The father says “ yeah sure son you can have $10 , but you have to suck my d#ck for it “ , the son hesitated and decided the ice cream with his mates was worth the few minutes of work . The son gets on his knees and takes the old mans old fella in his hand and says “ hey dad your d#ck kinda smells a bit like sh@t , to which the father replies “ how do you think your sister got her $20 to go to the movies ?”
Love the new format , Phil . Hope it stays online long enough to have a good look around ......
