NRL: New Parramatta Eels coach Jason Ryles has defended the decisions to let go of captain Clint Gutherson, Maika Sivo and Reagan Campbell-Gillard.
Tom Gilbert is eyeing a Round 1 return from an ACL injury — and could do so with the ‘c’ next to his name.
“It’s a nice feeling, obviously, it feels like a bit of a long time coming, but it’s nice to be with the boys and mixing it again with the team,” Gilbert told reporters this week. Gilbert knows it’ll be a good test to start the season for himself and the team, but doesn’t want to get ahead of himself just yet.
“But I can’t look too far down the track, I’ve got a lot of things to get right and I’m really excited to just do that at the moment.”Gilbert’s recovery hit a hurdle when his surgery had to be delayed due to a blood clot. To help him pass the time and still feel like a crucial part of the club, the Dolphins used Gilbert in an ambassador role at events.
Gilbert wasn’t able to reveal much about new coach Kristian Woolf’s plans for the No.13 jersey other than there’s “a little plan,” but he did speak to how keen he is to be on the field with Plath.
