Eels Appoint Brad Arthur as Head Coach (Part Deux)

[Poupou Escobar]

I reckon it's 9 from 8.

 

[hineyrulz]

I think it's 9 from 9 now

Yay us!!

 

[El Diablo]

I think it's 9 from 9 now

that would make us 1 from 7 if behind at half time

 

[Chipmunk]

I reckon it's 9 from 8.

You would, just to create an adversarial situation.

The only we came we won where we were behind at half time is vs Tigers.

We're still inconsistent - but I reckon we can put that down to being a young side.

Arthur has done a great job building this side.

I think it's incredible that we are competing (even winning) games with our third string hooker; it really is a testament to the squad he has built that we can tap our third stringer hooker on the shoulder, and not skip a beat.

With the additions of Evans and Meehan, I think our future looks pretty bright.

Our inconsistency (start of season) could be put down to playing with one genuine half the bulk of the season.

In regards to our hooker situation, I don't think BA wants to attack too much via a hooker. He'd rather a defensive hooker to player close to 80 minutes, IMO, with attacking raids via our halves. This is benefiting us right now with limited DH stocks. Let's just hope there's no more injuries from here on end!!

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Sterlo has bought in on the BA + DA plan.

That's enough for even the haters go get on board methinks.

I'm on board. BA and DA forever!

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Don't think our forwards can perform to the best of their ability until the halfback starts firing.

I think Norman's still struggling with his hamstring injury. And Moses is going okay. You should post more often.

And 100m sprinting is the new cycling. Or always has been. Can we get a poll on how how many people think sprinting is clean? Or whether or not I'm watching the Commonwealth Games or the Para-Commonwealth Games?

What the hell are you talking about?

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Brad Arthur has an empowering rugby league brain - all power to Brad Arthur.

Well said, mate. Good to see you're off the shrooms.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Yep, BA now has two black marks from me now.

Me too. I've wanted him gone for years. Or at least get some decent assistants to help him.

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

What the hell are you talking about?

Have a think about how many drugs the triathletes must use.

Good point. It's a wonder they dare to sleep.

 

[Bazal]

Good point. It's a wonder they dare to sleep.

With all the stuff they take, they probably can't

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Maybe once Bennett is finished with the Broncos and eventually carks it we could wheel him in to Parramatta "Weekend at Bernie's" style. Finally an eels coach to rival the great Jack Gibson.

#WeekendAtBennetts

That would just be confusing now. And BA goes ok so lay off.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Imagine trying to round up decathletes when it's time to compete. I'm surprised they don't start most events in a box, like greyhounds.

I assume they're just constantly doing decathlon and when it comes time to compete they just high jump into some kind of pit where they're easily rounded up and shipped off to the next stadium.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

well we have BA till 2019, and unless BA is considering a move after that, it probably will be.

Or are you still holding on to some misguided hope that Hayne will return to Parra?

You just wait. He'll be back.
