Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

would rather a decent centre over Spencer Leniu, To’a is past it

Jesse Ramien or Jake Averillo probably the only off contract options. Will Penisini also off contract but surely Eels re-sign him.

Will Penisini would be great, but he’s another Isaac Moses client, so it would be hard to make that happen.
I’ve said many times that Jake Averillo would be a huge upgrade on To’a and he has the added bonus of being a very good backup fullback if/when required.

Probably would be asking too much too considering the money now invested in May and To'a and the likely amount needed to keep Makasini. Can't really pay 4 centres starting $.

How long do we have Starford for? Crazy how he keeps getting extended...

I think we should prioritise getting To’a off our books, even if we have to continue paying half his wages to play the next 2 years elsewhere.

Ship has sailed a few times now. If Wayne cant get the best out of him no one can.

He'd be on pretty low money I dare say. Would be a no risk signing and fills in at lock, second row and halves.

Worth a look....wasn't worth a mention at his previous contract value.

I’m sure there are specific conditions for a medical retirement. Not just something you can use when you don’t like how a player is travelling

What are the conditions then?

Worked of Olam.

I want a back up hooker that doesn’t suck balls (eg Tristan NoHope), a gun centre, a gun winger.

I thought that Averillo would be a good get as well but after watching him play more his defence is on par with Toa's . Shocking defender.

We need a good defensive centre that plays on the right side

Sam Verrills may be available...never really did it for me in the past

They going to have any money left over after retaining everyone ?

Potentially a reliable but unremarkable player or two could be afforded. I don't have any suggestions but the Corey Jenson, Euan Aitken, Connor Tracey style of players. I think we would need to find them in reserve grade as well we obviously can't sell them guaranteed starting spots.
