    Jeremy Smith

    Jeremy probably had his best game for us in firsts on saturday (despite his first half hour being aweful), but that wasn't a high bar to raise. Unless he knows exactly what he wants to do before the ball is played, he doesn't know what to do. He can't improvise or react to the situation in...

    How many.......

    I am suprised a sharks supporter would bring up bandwagon supporting. They don't even have supporters let alone bandwagon ones. From what i saw on Saturday night, the Sharks need to define "a supporter". If a supporter is 13 year old girls wearing short skirts, crop tops and ug boots and at...

    Judic - *Johns fights Grading*

    I don't think anyone has ever pulled Andrew Johns into line, and that would appear to be the problem. (Heaven help BS). I asked the question on sunday when the Sunday roast guys kept using the excuse "in the heat of the moment". I looked at PAul Simpkins, who has to make heat of the moment...

    Lukey V. Wade

    Burt has to stay. The pressure we have been able to create with grubber kick chaes which he has scored off, will serve us well in the coming weeks as defences think twice about rushing up. Gives more options in attack and has a useful kicking game. If he trails up the middle more the way...

    who will be number 7

    I think there is a tendancy for people on here to over sell the ability of Eels players, particularly up and comers. But in terms of who should be our no.7, Tim is far and away the better option.

    How Sweet It Is

    Agree. We have worked hard and earned those wins, initially through defence, then slowly expanding our offence with confidence. I agree you can only play what is in front of you, and whilst i am confident we can make the 8 from here, with only one prop with a significant amountof experience, it...

    Anyone heard the Jamie Feeney rumour?

    I've said it before, if we are going to sign players of the quality of Feeney, why not keep a player like Peek, at least we know he likes the club and is a good club man. Are we losing Henry P? I could see him replacing Henry in the squad, but thats about it, and even then he wouldn't have...

    How Sweet It Is

    We got a bit lucky in that the Dragons played crap, but it was in part forced by our defence. It is very noticable that we are communicating alot more in defence with more talking and pointing (the way we did in 01), and ruck defenders are staying alive to inside balls alot better in...

    Player Votes vs Dragons

    3 - PJ 2 - Cayless 1 - Burt Cordoba had his best game comfortably. Good to see.

    who will be number 7

    Even if Tim Smith is as "average" as Para Pete says, it was once again shown tonight that he is a better option than the "expendable" Jeremy Smith. Jeremy managed to give away two cheap penalties and kick a ball out on the full in his own half in the short time he was on. And as mentioned above...

    who will be number 7

    The game i was watching. Ben Smith and O'Dwyer picked up the slack by doing extra work coming out of our own end after Fui went off. Plenty of people around me didn't even notice jeremy was off... because he didn't do very much when on. We still needed to score points, and if Tim were playing he...

    who will be number 7

    Has to be Tim. When Fui got sent off last week, we ended up benching Jeremy. In the same situation we wouldn't bench Tim. Jeremy is expendable, Tim isn't.

    Steve Clark

    before last saturday we were like 2 from our last 12 under Clarke. He sent a player off, went to the video ref everytime we scored, he did everything he could to ensure we couldn't win. We were just too good. I fear this week though, especially as its a channel 9 game.

    Some piccies

    which game was that in? lol.. are you sure you are not confusing him with a bug eyed centre from the roosters....

    there has to be a thread about it

    Steve Clarke. Went to the video ref on 4 of our 5 tries when there was near no doubt on any of them. Didn't go on the Manly tries and the first two should have at least been checked. He can spot us stealing the ball when he is twenty metres away, yet he can't look 1 metres to his right or left...

    Ian Hindmarsh likely to return to Eels

    IF we were going to sign Ian, why wouldn't we jsut keep Peek?

    OT: Willie Mason & NFL - Is he good enough ?

    Does anyone think Fui would make a good fullback? Explosive pace, good leg drive....

    Is anyone else really concerned about this?

    I can cop that we needed a clean out of players, and with so many guys coming off contract at the same time (what was it 19 players) not including Smithy, it looks like that was the plan. One problem though. If you have a plan to let go a bunch of players, you should have a plan for what...

    Firman and Finch Parallels

    I'd take Firman over Finch anyday. Far less distabilising than Finch, and if he doesn't work out you put him in ressies and you haven't wasted as much cash.

    Roosters chairman reveals Finch flip

    The extra pressure is from the fans. He puts it out there and rates himself and as we know the problem with doing that is if you don't deliver, you leave yourself open for criticism. And there in lies the reason why we shouldn't sign him. If he feels pressure from Roosters fans, he doesn't know...
