Blake Ferguson is playing for his future - and the veteran winger may have secured himself a new deal with the Eels with a strong showing against Newcastle in yesterday's sudden death win. Fergy wasn't perfect - he made a couple of errors - but the plusses far outweighed the minuses. The former Blues winger is a big-game player - yesterday was his 14th finals match and he has bagged 12 tries in those games. His two tries yesterday - which came after he sustained a painful leg injury in an illegal tackle - were crucial moments in the Eels' gritty win. Rugby union beckons Fergy - but he may have earned himself one last tilt at the NRL with his efforts yesterday.
