Rd6: Eels v Raiders GAME DAY thread @ Cbus Stadium 17/4/21

[IFR33K]

Entertaining game. We played some decent footy and even scored a long distance try. Most importantly we broke the hoodoo

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Let’s enjoys the win people!!

Awesome effort! Best win since the storm game!!

Vossy just said bone on bone

Alert @TheRam we have a code RED

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Grieg is going to be a decent pick up once he gets his fitness up...will be a weapon after a offseason.

Hipgrave/Kaufusi had huge games kept us in it when our starting middles went off!!

Ne Seri, for a guy on $200k a year Tomislav Opačić has been excellent.

He is doing well ... im just shit stirring

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Papali'i has very high hair. But it's not stupid hair. I think that could be vital.

 

[yy_cheng]

Hipgreaves did good too

 

[strider]

On the whole I have to admit that a forfeit probably wasn't the optimal strategy.

But it would have been a close second to this

3 Moses
2 Pap
1 Mahoney

 

[Avenger]

A great team/coaching performance after last weeks loss. Five from six is a magnificent start. Well done BA and the team. All we need is another Serb on the wing and we are set.

 

[IFR33K]

This papa can play too. Never noticed him and didn’t rate the signing, as anything special. Can’t recall a signing having such a huge impact in so few games in eels colours. The sky’s the limit for him.

 

[Cumberland Eel]

wow very tough and controlled performance! well done to BA/staff and the team.. oh and eat that Ricky!!

 

[Gronk]

Now to stretch the legs, go get a whiskey from the celebration bottle and look forward to Ricky’s presser.

 

[Delboy]

Do the refs get told at half time they are only looking at one side, even last week it was obvious.

just don’t understand the level of refereeing currently

I think it was Voss saying he could be a Mark Tookey type cult hero. WTF? Hardly in that class, no disrespect to Tooks.

 

[Avenger]

I f**king love him. His career I’ve followed closely for the obvious reasons. He has been so unlucky with injury but I am so stoked for him and his young family.

So when does Cotric join???c'mon spill the beans

He is a bit of a looker, in a grizzly adams kinda way

Rheed closing in on the best hooker in game spot.
Papali'i is exceptionally good.
Lane cops it but was one of our best.
Moses was great.
Forwards did job but will be getting tired.
Grieg will be a work in progress but he has power.

If our backline was better we would be a whole lot more dangerous. I'm hoping the MJ thing is sorted and perhaps we can make a play for someone.

I felt like we blew a few tries while Raiders didn't look like scoring in the 2nd half.
If we get everyone fit we may have the best Pack in comp. We would be looking at Niakuore,Papali'i,Kafusi off the bench.

With Matterson,Blake and D.Brown out I thought we may cop a hiding. Id put that down as our best win I have seen in a long time.
