Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Parramatta still have every chance of being there at the pointy end this season. They have lost Papali'i and Mahoney of note. If they correct for those losses (difficult, no doubt), they still have the forward pack, the halves and a squad at large to trouble most of the competition on their day. Hodgson has every chance of substituting for Mahoney, with Ice being the more difficult edge threat to replace.

Whilst I agree they're on the slide, I think this year they can still be thereabouts, particularly if they play to their strengths once more.

...... in my opinion.

Yeah but I was just going off my entrenched bias against Parramatta rather than reasoned analysis.

heard nothing since last Tuesday, no feedback after Thursday meeting. Confidence levels still high he will be a tiger

Saw Dylan Brown on FOX just now saying he was confident Moses would stay at Parra

There is something very admirable and nothing wrong in having an entrenched bias against either Pawwa or Souffs

How about we get Moses here for 2024 before speculating for a 2023 swap.
On Joffa, we are fortunate to retain him as a Tiger after the crap he has been through with Brisbane and us over the last few years. I predict he'll be playing for QLD again this year

That would be a shame because it means I will have to boo him.

Have you heard whether a meeting did actually take place on Thursday at the least?

Yeh. A key phrase I popped in there was 'of note'. The others are all very replaceable.

 

[Pascoes_barber]

Have a look at the posters saying they'd trade Joffa....There's a link.

Rank stupidity?

I agree that he's not coming this year. But completely disagree Parra has any chance of going all the way, they are done for the next 5 years now. We are rising right as they are fading.

Theyl still be top 6 so will have a chance. A chance that Parra knows only if Mitchell is there

Not sure mate I am catching up for a beer with the player manager this Thursday so can ask but he may not know. He didn't know about thursday meeting when I spoke to him last Tuesday all he told me was our deal was 300k more than Parramatta.

Doesn’t sound like a guy who has made a decision.

Sounds like a guy that is waiting for the I's to be dotted and the T's crossed but unsure which club that will be. Fingers crossed it's us

Someone did say tho Moses was spotted at WT training last week??

To be fair too both clubs this is bullshit , he has all the offers with his manager , so is he just grandstanding now because if we are $300,000 more than slimmmy eels and a extra year what the hell is he waiting for , or he just trying to squeeze that extra year out of the eels .

 

[Kaito]

Doesn't look good for eels fans lmao

'and yes it will be the hardest decision of my life' sounds more like we are in the box seat. You rarely say that unless you putting in preleaving reasons.

If he resigns fair enough but hel lose 1.2million. I know what I would do.
