Even if he was fully fit, where do you put him?

Nothing more than a bench role.

I'd say he would replace O'Hanlen off the bench.

If we hit 2nd place by the years end then you'll see all the ranting on here to give him a first grade jersey just for the hell of it before he retires.

He's lucky he's even in the NRL. Especially back at a club that he tried to sue not long ago. People need to realise this isn't 2004. It's years since he's been half decent. I have no idea why we ever signed him and have even less idea why people are confused as to why he isn't playing FG for us.

We might as well bring back Dallas McIllwain while we're at it.

until he runs out for the blue and whites its hard to say what value he will be . He was signed because he is cheap.experienced and versatile, he adds depth for us and is miles ahead of McIllwain

He was pretty much the eels best and most consistent forward last year so I don't know where all the hate comes from

Must be problems behind the scenes.

Correct, we will only see him if injuries happen.
he signed on cheaply (league minimum, which is $80k)

Maybe because he's shat on the club numerous times, tried to sue us like I said, is a drug cheat, has gotten in trouble numerous times off the field and is well past his best?

I understand he'd be on nothing and is only a backup but based on his history with us and other clubs, I'm just not a fan of his and surely even the biggest Reni fan couldn't dispute that he'd be the 9th or 10th best second row option at the club at best.

No matter how good or bad Tony Williams goes it looks him and the no.12 jersey are inseperable. So IF Maitua is fit, after last Monday's game the only person he may replace would be Josh Jackson.

And no matter what goes down in any game the only thing that will make Des (Mr Compromise) Hasler make a change is injury or suspension.

Rotting in reserves for revenge for trying to sue our club.

The irony when you try to sue the club that ends up paying you through an contract years later.

I think you answered the question right there. He was the EELS best forward last year. Meaning he probably wouldn't of made 1st grade at 14 other clubs. Saints and tigers the only others he may of
