Team list next Tuesday vs Rnd 10 Broncos 10th May 2024

[emjaycee]

I said back in mid 2022, we didn't have an NRL standard 17 then and we don't now.

At best we have 12 players that would get a start in someone else's top 17.

Which players from our 2022 GF side would not make another teams first grade side? Apart from JA

Our issue was prior to 2022 that we didn't have anyone coming in to replace the ones we were losing

Lots of dumb Eels supporters, hey?

All the more merkins for Pou to "educate"

 

[hineyrulz]

is there any possibility there maybe more posts in this thread then the crowd attendance.

We still have 9 days to get through before game day.

It’s possible there will be more excuses for Bea than the crowd attendance. The usual suspects are setting a cracking pace.

 

[Chipmunk]

When was the last time we had our best 17 on the field, sometime in 2022 maybe?

Probably, but the lack of depth outside of the Best 17 compounds any issues our Best 17 have.

We probably have a Dirty Dozen at best. At worst, the Magnificent Seven.

This is false. Every club has poor bench options

But but but no Gutherson.

BAs got to.go and if we had a pair of nits we would of pulled the pin and hired Bennet. Instead Souths have beaten us to the punch.

OK, so tell me which club would drop one of their existing 17 players for:
- Harper
- Russell
- Lussick
- Simmonson
- Kelma

There hot on his heels. We are sniffn glue

Yep and in July 2022 we were naming a team with Makatoa, Kaufusi, Stone, Rein, and Cartwright - none of whom would have made anyone elses top 17 at the time.

Nope but 3 of them have become starters and 1 a decent backup assuming on bugger all and 1 retired..

Do our GF side now

But four of which are considered NRL worthy this year - three playing just last week, one would have if not injured - and the remaining one is now retired.

What is the relevence to where they are now?
My comment was in relation to our ability to have solid and quality depth.
We didnt have it in mid-2022 and we don't have it in mid-2024.

Mid 2022 we had a bench of

Makatoa
Matto
Kaufusi
Brown

Pretty f**king solid


Our CUP side was pretty f**king ordinary though..
