Cayless is confident
Nathan Cayless has told NRL.com that he has been loving his move to the second row and he believed the Eels were well prepared for a big season.
"I'm really enjoying it [the second row]. I've been able to play a bit more time and I don't seem to be getting my head bashed in as much. We've got a bit more size in the team so it's going well," Cayless told NRL.com.
He said he was "pretty confident we can get back up to the top of the NRL table if we can maintain our fitness and get not too many injuries in the squad, but you need luck with those things".
He predicted Adam Dykes, Jamie Lyon and John Morris were set for a big year and praised some of the team's new recruits.
"Aaron Cannings is going well, he's been playing really good in the trials. Corey Pearson's taken a leadership role within the team and he's had a big impact on the team. He's got a lot of experience."
