He cost the Eels badly.When level heads were needed, he was certainly a long way off the mark. Of greater concern for the Eels i think is the form, or not so much form but poor decisions still being made by Tim Smith. I believe he will be a great in the game, and i did think he would really go to another level this year, which i'm still not convinced won't happen. I was though very concerned at his....well his lack of thought in to trying to achieve a repeat set. Parra never seemed like they were trying for one....very strange considering the percentage plays Brian loves. Strange days indeed.

Timmy played well tonight that last try of the night was well spotted and setup by timmy

Riddells try wasnt fine

the guy playing the ball put his hands all over the marker, which you could see in the last shot

not allowed, no try

Eels had enough chances to win it, but stupid guys like stringer cost them..... will have to play smarter if they want to win the close ones this year IMO

Eeven david baysari set up the odd try for balmain. It's not what Timmy did do...it's what he didn't do which is the concern. His effort was 1st class, his thought process was .....missing.

call it what you like mate. SMART experienced halves put the opposition under pressure, usually given the opportunity create repeat sets, not give it to number ten (stringer) on the last. Particularly when your attacking opposition line. Laugh at that.

he put his hands on matt bowen

would he have tackled riddell? no

point is, he was impeded by getting to him because mckinnon put his hands on him..... the question of what was he supposed to do is largely irrelevant

play pocket billiards or something, i dont know, but dont do that

what he did was illegal, and he was called for it

end of story
