Stefano better have more than I saw tonight otherwise hell be wearing number 21 a lot.
No more pillows.

NB, I haven't watched him play before and understand he might be a gun.

It is too early to judge him. Payne Haas looked like a dud after his first three games, only playing 21, 8 and 8 minutes in each of his respective games. We all know what happened next. He started 2019 and has gone on to become one of the best players in the game. Many good judges rate Stefano on par with Haas and above Blore.

I doubt many of us have seen much of him at all but he'll have to perform to get a run with Madge

At one stage in the game Packer looked like he was going to belt him but refrained and just put him down gently and smiled .

Stefano needs a Massive pre season ..
Looks like a marshmallow atm

Hopefully just some puppy fat, he has some size about him so hopefully he can toughen up.

What a forward pack we are building. Now for that one amazing half that will lead the way.

But who is that half is the question.

I would say Mbye to fullback, douhei to 5/8. Need a organising half. Blake green?? A youngster ?? But problem is we have so much money invested in Reynolds and brooks.

I think Munster would be great for us, I had that conversation tonight while watching the game.

Blake Green is rubbish. There is a shortage of halves in the NRL right now. We simply have to make Brooks better.

I think it may be too late for that, he was really stifled by us chopping and changing coaches while he was developing, I think he also needed to spend a couple of years playing with an experienced partner to develop properly. We as a club really let him down.

Need to get Joey Johns at the club he can get Brooks up to scratch with some medicinal products and give the kid some tips along the way

Doueihi is not a 5/8th

He looks very similar to Jack Wighton to me, obviously with less experience.

I doubt he can defend in the front line.

thats a full strength eels forward pack, we were missing Twal, Musgrove, Garner

Seeing Matterson making 10 metres only brings a smile to my face

Considering the amount of work they did defensively, those numbers aren't surprising. Once Musgrove, Twal and Mikaele come back we'll be in a better position.
