Eels v Week One Finals Team List Thread

[BoneyBlake17]

Sounds like an easy fix. What would you have done?

Well i think the judicary weren't harsh enough on the chicken wings, cannonball, twisting the neck type tackles when they come into the game about 10 years ago.

Players were getting slapped on the wrist for those tackles. Not even missing a game.

They should have been 2-3 weeks suspension. That could have been a deterrent or may not have who knows.

But i dont think nrl did enough back then to try and stop it creeping into the game. As it has now. The horse has bolted everyone is doing it now.

I hear people whinge and moan about poor cameron smith missing a grand final. He twisted sam thaiday neck like a bottletop. And deserved a 2 week suspension. That happened to occur in the final series

As long as we play one more week than you, I'll be happy.

Who cares how many weeks you play as long as you don't win a thing????


Good to see you have given up on your Pissweak team already, Bronco fans are soft as.

What a great 5 days I am going to have in here. We play the fading roosters and you get the unbeatables. Can you ban me and spoil my fun?

You really do live through your football team don't you? That's quite pathetic.

Penalising people more heavily would have been a bandaid solution.

I have heard a lot of people complain about the ruck but not many people come up with good solutions to the problem.

 

[Gary Gutful]

Well I wasn't numbnuts

Cheating is the best. We should of done it years earlier.

F**ken random weird bi-polar, difficult to follow merkin!

I like the look of that assessment.

I agree the storm is the bench mark for the year and absolutely deserve the minor premiership and favouritism.

But are they that much better then other sides ? Or have they just been more consistent this year while other sides form have been up and down?

Apart from flogging the Broncos their form against the top 4-5 sides hasn't been that brilliant, a few loses and a few wins.

Have a look at their wins for the year

You make me so mad I could drive down to Moorooka and slap you upside the head...but I'm also a lazy, lazy man.

Anyone is beatable on the day. Form during the season counts for nothing now.

Thank f**k the you being Lazy, Ballistic Brewery is just down the the road at least you get a few beers on way.

 

[Gary Gutful]

Yeah, I'd probably only get as far as Ballistic.

Spoken like a man with his Blue and Gold glasses on. Every fan thinks their team is constantly dudded by the refs. I have watched every game this year and I reckon the dodgy 50-50 calls ended up being exactly that, 50-50. We have had plenty of good calls go our way.

Im not sure many of us are whinging about the penalties we are giving away it is the penalties that we are not getting that is the issue.

Sure there are games where refs just don't look your way but the fact that we've won f**k all penalty counts and halves where we have not received a penalty or got one 70 minutes into a game is pretty poor. No team is perfect but we've seemed to play a lot of perfect teams on our way to a top 4 spot (that we also apparently don't deserve for some reason).

I understand that people like yourself and Barry are more intelligent and level headed than most of us in here but sometimes you go too far in the opposite direction to seemingly curb the people who are too extreme in the "we are always robbed" basket.

Well for both clubs there's no guarantees after week two.
