2017 R26 Fri - Eels 22-16 Rabbitohs @ ANZ

[GongPanther]

Parra in 2nd gear but teams can aim up on them too easily.

They are pacing the game to suit themselves.No point in overexerting yourself in the 1st half when you can steamroll them in the 2nd.

I've always liked Turner, he cops way too much shit from supposed souths 'fans'

NRL quality in the middle, A-grade quality on an edge. Horrible lateral defender but goes OK in the middle.

 

[Dragon Slayer]

I'm cheering Parramatta to win.

Last thing the Sharks need is to be playing Melbourne in Melbourne in a Semi Final.

See you in two weeks time Eels.

 

[Fat Tony]

What does that prove, nothing. Plenty of "non-great" fullbacks have won premierships.
Not a fullback, but John Sutton won a premiership, hell he played first grade, proves anything is possible

Name 3 premiership fullbacks who weren't great players.

 

[ZEROMISSTACKLES]

Under strength Souths doing well. If only they started the season like they been playing in the last 2 months

 

[OzDragon]

Does Michael Jennings want to look like a would-be terrorist or something, with that beard?

When you represent western Sydney, you gotta look the part.

 

[Dragon Slayer]

When you represent western Sydney, you gotta look the part.

He probably thinks well it works for Semi.

Crichton and Murray are going to take so much pressure off Burgess next year, can see them looking ten times better in 2018.

Which burgess ?

Name 3 premiership fullbacks who weren't great players.

Good point. I seriously can't even think of one.

 

[GongPanther]

Name 3 premiership fullbacks who weren't great players.

Greg Barwick in the 91' GF. Not a great player,but someone who was usually there when kicks were put through.Dependable player.

 

[Tommy Smith]

Name 3 premiership fullbacks who weren't great players.

Depends on your definition of 'great'

From this century alone I wouldn't consider any of:

Robbie O'Davis
Luke Phillips
Rhys Wesser
Luke Pattern
Brett Hodgson
Lachlan Coote
Ben Barba

I wouldn't consider any of them great players.

They're certainly a level below the likes of Mini, Slater, GI, Lockyer and Stewart.

 

[Rhyno]

Barba, Coote , Patten

 

[Fat Tony]

Greg Barwick in the 91' GF. Not a great player,but someone who was usually there when kicks were put through.Dependable player.

So we have to go back 26 years just to find one?

 

[Vic Mackey]

Lol what?

 

[ZEROMISSTACKLES]

Eels cant win in finals footy with Auvaa at wing.

 

[typicalfan]

Barba has won a Dally M and has had great seasons, some quiet ones too. Wesser was great when Penrith won the competition. Coote has been fantastic at the Cowboys his career only hampered by injury.

 

[Rabbit toes]

Brandy giving it to the refs and rightly so

 

[The_Shield]

Eels getting some massive leg ups here

 

[Vic Mackey]

Eels cant win in finals footy with Auvaa at wing.

If they keep getting some of these calls they might

Geez these touchies are shit merkins
