confirmation from the eels themselves uh today as well so it was interesting because there were rumors uh floating around uh john about the um uh who would be replacing sam moa as the eels defensive coach and the first lot of rumors came out that the new coach would be coming from melbourne and at first well that's looking like we're talking about ryan hinchcliffe coming up from Melbourne.

Yeah, um- What was that name? Fanny Chmelar, who was, uh, who, who- Fanny Chmelar? ...

who jumped in the chat the other day for the, for the boys on West Tigers Live.

From within.

Mark Brentnell, Ryan Hinchcliffe, and just check my notes on that, Aaron Bellamy.

There we go.
