[Twizzle]

We just need some merkin in there to stir these merkins up.

Says merkin a lot. Loves talking footy.

He's already there but he's on the other team - No. 17. He's a MAD merkin.

 

[RustedonEel]

God Almighty, we're doomed. A ginger for a ref and Klein in the Bunker. This club is cursed.

 

[Timana]

Old mate at the barber shop says we just gotta rip Manly merkins heads off.

He should know, he was our greatest ever lock forward.

How is Daniel?

 

[Eelementary]

Has he said "the lads" yet?
Moonface was clueless. Rylesy is at least far more articulate...the similarities are there performance wise thus far but I do feel JR has more to offer.
I do remember when moonface was there we had some absolute resolute defence but couldn't score points.
We lost so many games by less than 6 or 8 points..there was sweet fa in attack

I agree.

Despite our winless start to the season, it seems clear to me that Ryles knows what we need to do to turn things around, and is making changes to ensure it happens.

Kearney seemed lost.

Is that the nickname that Shane Muspratt goes by these days?

Ron Lynch went okay.

 

[Noise]

Jack Williams out for 6 weeks, had knee surgery. On official Facebook eels page Twizzle

 

[emjaycee]

Tuivati likely to come onto the bench and Offa to start with Williams out.

 

[Soto]

I'd play Samrani in the back row

 

[Soto]

Feels like it will be a year where we won't have our best 17 on the park for 1 game.
Absolutely doomed.
Rumours are also going around that Moses won't be back any time soon.
I'm flabbergasted

 

[Joshuatheeel]

I'd play Samrani in the back row

Not able to be picked as trial and train apparently

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Reckon Charlie guymer might come in

Interestingly yesterday Webby, on Morning glory mentioned Moses is out for 3 months....it was just a comment when they were talking eels / manly. Was hard to tell if he has mail or was just a general comment without any mail.

 

[emjaycee]

If Moses is out for an extended period, would it be fair to say that his injuries have ruined our 2023, '24 and '25 seasons?

 

[Soto]

Not able to be picked as trial and train apparently

Wtf...so why is he named in the 22? If he can't play he should not be named in the 22.

 

[lingard]

Walker can cover any position bar front row.

I imagine only one of Lussick and Smith makes the 17 next week, with Walker taking the utility spot. I don’t see us using one of the forward bench spots on him, it’s just not necessary.

I think the end game is once Moses returns he plays 6, and we release Dylan to Newcastle in a trade for one of their forwards by round 12 - Lucas would be ideal but I doubt it, KPP I’d settle for

Maybe. Except, by then Dean Hawkins may have proved himself to be a very good first grader, and may slot in very well at 6. Who knows?
