Rd17: EELS v Dolphins GAME DAY THREAD @ Sunshine Coast Stadium 24/6/23

[Gary Gutful]

All this talk about scoring 80 was a pipe dream no NRL unless they give up can concede 80.

Unlike the AFL where a team like Sydney Swans can score 200 points in a match.

I would assume is the equivalent of a league team scoring a 100.

Code in crisis and its not Rugby League.

I don't think its the equivalent of 100 in Rugby League given its happened so many times and we are yet to see 100 in the NRL/NSWRL.

Its closer to the equivalent of 70.

So does lane walk back into the starting line up for the Warriors game or is he going to have to earn his spot???

I'd probably give him makatoas spot on the bench since Joe O seems to be in the same mold as makatoa.

I’m saying if he pleas this Wednesday it will be as a result of representations and agreed facts with the prosecution which will reduce the offending and lead to sentence on the day - non-custodial

Whilst I agree there is zero chance he gets a custodial sentence, any plea involving the word “guilty” in relation to sexual touching without consent, in my opinion it will see the NRL rub him out for a minimum 8-12 weeks imo. They’ll probably ensure it’s the remainder of the season

How did the Panfers let Hopgood leave?

They should have moved bloody Yeo the the second Row and had him at lock he is a gun and playing better than Yep this year.

3 weeks will be backdated from the stand down rule

Not sure how the bunker took Sivos try off him in the first half. You put both angles together the ball is clearly on the line before his foot goes into touch.

I also don't understand how the ref didn't call it a try and then let the bunker review it.

They couldve had him at hooker too. Can he bring some juniour mates over

If we lost jnr and maybe reg. Hell yeah.

Plus matto and hoppa might be smokeys

Hopgood at hooker? That's a waste.

Hands brought him over to the Eels

He said in an interview that Ivan actually encouraged him to take the opportunity at Parra.

Reed Simonsson going off

He played hooker for us vs phins

 

[Enamoured Eel]

5 from 5, we’re flying under the radar nicely. When the raiders done similar a little while back, the media went into a frenzy. Let’s hope the form continues.

I had a very cheeky dabble on them at $36. It’s fair to say I’ll be rewarded with all premiership winning memorabilia if they can pull it off.

Just anotherbad decision

Yeah that's OK but his attack would be basically 0 he is a lock after yesterday's display.

Same I put $10 on at $36 after round 5.

Self represented?

Very clever personal attack. But no, I’m not a grub.

Sivo has had 5 tries taken off him this season to my count.
I think 3 should of been given the OK
