If you read what the Eels fans say about Siva , he won’t be making much yardage in our half . 10 yards to the try line great , as a workhorse like Ash no .
Massively happy to see Holroyd back , hopefully he hasn’t lost any more weight as I think he got to light last year .

Yeah i'm not sure he's a Marcus Bai in that regard but BA will know better than anyone how to get the best out of him.

He will make more than fusi just through playing more than 12 games and that's enough for me.

If we can utilise him correctly and he can score like he did in NRL we will alot more of those games we lost by 2-8 points

Interesting how the NRL are now considering giving 7 tackles to the defending team following the kick off if the ball is kicked past the 25 metre line.
This they say will result in shorter kick offs and will eliminate the first carry and collision.
Just shows how Rohan Smith was ahead of his time!

Thought they said no to changing rules?.
How odd.

They’ve decided to kill that rule change because all that would have happened is that each kick off would result in a 7 tackle set. No change to the impact on the first tackle.

If were going to use him as a battering ram out of our own 10, lobbing him diabolical hospital passes every other set while letting our forwards lazily avoid carries then we haven't learned the lessons from previous years and deserve all we get.

Sivo should not be wasted and burning up energy doing that, a few a game maybe but a Ryan Hall bulldozer out of yardage is not what we should be utilising him as, nearer the opponents line targeting the edges / smaller / less mobile wings yes.

Don't think so. Only change I can see that refers to injured players that makes provision for taking them off the cap is for players who miss more than 6 games as a result of foul play.

Brodie Croft back In training today, so we can put that nonsense to bed now.

TNW, new 3 year deal confirmed

That's good,we need to try keep the good young ones around and get them game time

Also good to see Holroyd in the training pictures. Massive year for him personally and massively important to the club that he does well.

Happy with this. At worst he’s a bigger Donaldson. There was that one game back end of last year (I want to say against Catalan) where he was excellent and showed there’s potential to be more than that.

Sounds obvious but I really hope we get abit of luck with injuries this year. Last few years have felt pretty bad, though the crazy bans last season didn't help.
