Rd12: EELS v Rabbits GAME DAY THREAD @ Allianz Stadium 19/5/23

[Wally21]

Ok. I’ve been on a bit of health kick of sorts of late but f**k it…this calls for a few more (zero carb) beers on the forums tonight me thinks.

f**k that Happy, I had a party for one tonight!!!

 

[Bandwagon]

We are going well. Score first and we will win.
You can see when Souths are going to spread it. Nearly always on the 4th. Need to hold them down longer on the tackle before amd set for it.

I reckon we done good in the ruck this week, we really pushed our luck and when Kline didn't bite we kept on pushing. We were still f**king slow with our PTB though, we need to fix that.

 

[Wally21]

Where has this been and why now? One of the best performances!

Did BA find the nerve to actually motivate them? Because they looked on. Where has this been BA??

great performance

Jake, I don’t know what happened, but we f**king won brother!! I’m loving Emu. f**king legend!

 

[T-Boon]

Such an uphill ski game by Mitch Moses. A champion Eels. Best since Kolc.

 

[Happy MEel]

We need to stop taking Moses for granted. Sometimes you don’t know what you have til it’s not there.

Absolutely. He is elite no matter what the nay sayers think. If Cleary just did that there’d be calls for him to be installed as an immortal tomorrow morning. I’m so glad he’s our half.

 

[Jake the snake]

Jake, I don’t know what happened, but we f**king won brother!! I’m loving Emu. f**king legend!

Mate he’s phenomenal. His post contact yards are awesome

 

[Wally21]

Emu laid the platform. Junior had his best game of the year. What’s his name over Dumpster was much better. Simonson had his best game. Our halves were outstanding

 

[Happy MEel]

f**k that Happy, I had a party for one tonight!!!

We should plan better next time and make it a duo.

 

[Soren Lorenson]

Well, that was a pleasant surprise

 

[Wally21]

We should plan better next time and make it a duo.

Let’s do it brother! And get @Suitman to join!

 

[Jake the snake]

Paulo started off shit this game bit played his best game for a long time. Wow

 

[JokerEel]

That was the best win we have had in 2-3 years.

Souffs have always smashed us we gave them f**k all

 

[hindy111]

Well I am surprised. Maybe the best win I've seen considering we lost two forwards during the game and playing the best side in comp.
Bryce I hope gets a contract. He is playing good footy. Realy hope we don't lose him cause of Murchie and Davey.

The biggest thing in this game was we played footy. We moved the ball the whole game. To often we have 4 or 5 sets in a row where we just bash it up amd waste sets. Tonight we attacked nearly every set.

Simmonson is actually playing good footy. He puts in 100%. I don't mind him tbh. He isnt special but ok.

Russel looks far better then Dunster. Probably needs another season in the gym and will be far improved.

Grieg is only going to get better. Early in the season he was gassed after 2 or 3 runs. Now he looks some what seasoned. He will only continue to improve as the year goes on.

That win saved our season. Huge game next week. Get that and its season back on.

 

[Tooooks]

Fox telling us why Souths lost. It was cos they were complacent apparently.

 

[Happy MEel]

Let’s do it brother! And get @Suitman to join!

Yep, throw in @emjaycee and @Matty Bhoy as well and we’re officially a party of five

 

[Eelogical]

He hops skips and flies

He needs a cape.

 

[Delboy]

FMD, Ennis still unable to do anything but praise Souffs until 5 minutes to go, and Brandy is now gobbing off that Souffs could have and should have gone on with it.

Brandy doesn’t have unconscious bias, it’s out there in full view

 

[Wally21]

Yep, throw in @emjaycee and @Matty Bhoy as well.

Let’s do it brother. I would love that!

 

[Happy MEel]

Paulo started off shit this game bit played his best game for a long time. Wow

Yep. It was pretty much the exact time I gave him an absolute serve on here he turned around. I clearly have no idea.

 

[IFR33K]

BA has always eased rookies into NRL. Every forward has started that way.

nice mate. I like the nice straight bat, hard up against the pads.
