2026 Season

[jamesgould]

And like the Dolphins with Nikorima, the Eels are rissoling a young Volkman for Luai. Madness.

Really have to wonder what they think they're doing. Pezet this year, Luai next year ... they're not anywhere near the level that a one year halves signing is going to push them into contention. So why not sign a younger player long-term (Volkman would certainly be a good option) and try and build something?

Parra are routinely underrated in "club is run by morons" discussions.

Volkman is a decent player but has had some dud treatment from the clubs he's played for so far.

Yeah know quite a few Eels fans filthy with the Luai signing, knowing he can full well jet off to fulfil TPA arrangements for another team whilst he plays and trains for them.

IDK why they're considering paying $1m for Bradman (if reports are true). Yes, he would absolutely improve them, but what's their spine in 2027 when he turns up?

9. Da Silva, 7. Mitchell Moses (33), 6. ?, 1. ?...and who are their middles?

Are they buying Bradman because he's a player they need to complete their squad or a bloke they can get for the right money?
