Rd13: EELS v Cowboys GAME DAY THREAD @ Fortress Commbank 26/05/23

[eels_fan]

glad we won even though the ref and Sivo tried their best to make sure we didn’t.

class of Moses and Brown win us the game.

 

[the phantom menace]

We are demosntrably better when Hodgson plays 30mins or less, and Hands gets 50mins or more...

Through us some smelly stats @Pou if you want to keep on trying to argue otherwise.

 

[Cumberland Eel]

Well the main thing is I did my arse.

take it to the Pride thread Pou

 

[the phantom menace]

Phantom, we had our best 4 forwards out. I’m very f**king proud of the boys.

Cowboys were missing 4-ish Origin class players too.

Happy for the two points, and (just) closing the game out... but we had some stinker performances out there from some players that should know better.

 

[Wally21]

OK, without sounding like the enternal optimist, we could have easily dropped this game. We had our best 4 forwards out. And the boys got it done. I’m going to enjoy it!!

 

[Chipmunk]

Well the main thing is I did my arse.

The Line was always the very very very smart bet in this one. I'm guessing it was above 20.

 

[eels_fan]

And they reckon Simonsson is having a good game. He can GET f**kED. He is a massive unco. Can’t cop him. Just f**k off.

Think there is some overreaction in that.
Simonssen was great tonight and if you watch that replay it is kicked into his chest as he goes to scoop it up - no one could have held onto it

Yeah but bro, you know we might have dropped that game normally. Just enjoy it!

 

[eels_fan]

Those were the games we lost in the first 4 games and a few others.
Take it

Moses - Clutch!

not bad for an in breed

 

[T-Boon]

I am happy to admit I was wrong about Penisini. He is good and getting better.
Its got to be fun playing outside our best halves pairing since Kolc and Mark Levy.

 

[the phantom menace]

Nice dig by Dylan on Ch 9 to/about getting better after Andrew Johns left us...

nah the 30 mins Is only a small sample. We should see how he goes for 80 now

Bit harsh on Sivo. He had some brain explosions but he scored a try and had 22 runs for 215m.

 

[Wally21]

So Dylbro started the year slow, but f**k me he might just be the best player in the comp over the
Last 4 weeks

 

[the phantom menace]

The way Greig runs sometimes reminds me of an early Willy Mason.

I know, but he gave Feldt both tries with poor D

his involvement was undoubtedly the best of the season

 

[Stormy36]

If any of you whingers looked at that 17 at the start of the year. I would guarentee you would say we would of been beaten by 50. Seriously just shut up with your shit bagging of the team at every opportunity. Seriously just f off if you can't say anything positive at anytime

The good stats alone don't make up for the blatant stupidity in attack and defence situations, imo.

Phantom I think he is the new Tooks. f**king love the kid
