Re: 'We definitely 1 million per cent want to keep Trey': Raiders keen for Mooney to stay

Trey has exceeded cup quality but saulo has been improving in the nrl.
Will be good to compare them on sunday in the same game.

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 think if fog were to go down, cook would get the call up I ...

Horse is there. There's no Guler or Cotric either and they only named 16 players. I wouldn't read too much into it.
Guler isnt named on the nrl extended bench. Mooney is.

Re: Parramatta Eels still hoping to hold onto Raiders target Ethan Sanders

Sanders fits in reggies for as long ad he takes to overtake fog. The best thing we can do is get him in and give him time to mature his game. It probably benefits him to stay for the whole year at the eels to get a wider experience before joining us next year

Mooney well above all others. Asomua is rapanas replacement in waiting. Puru comes to life in the back end of halves. Has a bit of work to do in the earlier exchanges. I dont think chevy is ready.
