And who plays centre?

It's mind blowing how many Eels fans still fail to understand that we have THREE FIT OUTSIDE BACKS

You can take JA off but then Cartwright plays centre. We need to score points AND not concede any more as well. At some point you have to concede we lack some troops.

I get that but to move one of the best inform five eighths to centre is a big call and just hasn't worked.

If you’re going to move Brown from the 6 cos you’re short on backs then Cartwright would be the logical replacement.

Don't worry Shouty Dan, everyone else is just as surprised that either the Tigers or the Dragons will go 3 straight tomorrow

I don't think it' a big call when it's the only call? It worked fine last week.

Matto and Cartwright are the only other options at the moment and they aren't centres either.

It's not the Brown move that's lost us this game, we've dropped a try over the line and the fullback defending on the wing has been caught out three times jamming in, where we failed to read the Cows D doing that.

This has been a legitimate complete competent performance from the Cows. Top 4 stuff. I had wrote them off as junk but I’m reconsidering.

If the Cows played like the Titans then Parra would have stumbled home with a poor performance like we did.
