Re: Parramatta Eels still hoping to hold onto Raiders target Ethan Sanders
Here is an interesting thought 3 way immediate swap deal. Lomax released to the Eels, Sanders to the Raiders and Woolford to the Dragons. Would this be in the Raiders best interest? We have 4 middle of the road hookers, but little halves depth.

Re: 2024 Round 6 v Titans: Game Day
It looked from the highlights that Chevy's attack had been a little quiet in Cup too. Late last year he seemed to be in a purple patch and setting up a lot of plays. So maybe he's just in a normal downturn Again it's just one game, a debut game at that so means nothing. I can't see him overall as b...

Re: Parramatta Eels still hoping to hold onto Raiders target Ethan Sanders
I'd like us to hold onto Adam Cook when Sanders signs. He is an outstanding player at NSW cup level. Could easily slot in at fullback or five-eighth. It would be wise to keep a player like him around to help him develop our young talent. I have actually thought Cook was probably the player that has...

Re: 2024 Round 6 v Titans: Teams and Previews
I would love to see Chevy make his debut this week. I thought this would be a great week anyway with 4 weeks to the bye. I assume he will get a fine for the attempted trip. I think this is his 2nd fine this year?

Re: Parramatta Eels still hoping to hold onto Raiders target Ethan Sanders
Or you are selling the story of. You know how you won the u19 series last year. Would you like to play with 3/4 of that spine and see where you can go. There is also a direct passage to FG if you are good enough. Oh also here is a bunch of cash as well.

Re: Canberra Raiders express interest in Cowboys forward Luciano Leilua
In my opinion if CHN is cleared to return to the NRL this LL conversation stops. Given the way Rick has handled CHN over the past couple of years constantly dropping or giving him only limited minutes. Disregarding CHN’s current medical issue would he provide better value at his rumoured $650k pa or...

I assume the silly 10 day cooling off period is also applicable to these junior contracts? So unless Para waives their rights we won’t hear anything offical for a couple of weeks later.

Re: Salary cap rules 2023-2027
NFL min spend is 89% over the 4 year CBA agreement. If this money isn’t spent then the amount under paid is pay out to players. I agree a greater amount of year to year variance would be better.

It is a change for us, Stewart (Sutherland Shire), Strange (Central Coast) and Sanders (Hills District) are from areas we don’t normally target. The hard part will be keeping them.

Perplexed by this bench. I am thinking there is 1 of 3 potential options. 1. Wighton is going to move in game either to Centre (replacing Croker) or into the forwards allowing Frawls to play 5/8. 2. Wighton is actually still injured and given this is his last regular season home game he is starting....

As sad as it is and I hope he does retire at the end of the year. This situation is no where near as bad as it was thought at the start of the year. While it was known there was a player option thank god the club put a “games played” clause otherwise he would still be on top dollar next year as well

Re: Canberra Raiders sign star young Eels half Ethan Sanders
I am super excited by this. Watching his try in u19 SOO that had Stewart, Strange and Sanders linking up was something special.
How does this signing work though. Given he is contracted for 24 I wouldn’t have thought we could sign him until Nov 1. Or is it different if he isn’t top 30 at the Eels?
