hey guys...
just wanted to say congrats on the massive season this season... i know its probably a week too late but theres a reason for it...
first off... let me just say... im a big Parra fan. have been since i was 8yrs old. even when the Warriors came i stuck with Parra. i like the Warriors but i pretty much bleed blue & gold. i watch every single game that Parra play and ALWAYS go out to watch them play when there here in NZ.
but im ashamed to say that at the start of this season i was ripping the club off... in fact i came in here and ripped into DA numerous times about various things like moving Hayne to 5/8 and giving finch the boot. id never been critical of the Eels before but for some reason i just gave it to DA this season.
ive since seen that i was way wrong... DA is a good coach. sure he made a few mistakes at the Warriors... but i actually think hes a far better coach now than he was then... and IMO he was the best coach the Warriors ever had.
for that reason when the tide turned and the Eels started to string wins together i thought it wouldn't be right of me to come in here and share the joy with all you guys...
now the season is over i just wanted to come in and say well done to the team... and the club as a whole. this season we've seen the first grade squad really mature and start to play to its potential. and we also saw the back of Fitzy... and there just seems to be a far better feeling about the club with Ozzy in charge.
Im really looking forward to next season... heres hoping they can go one better and give Hindy, Caylo & Burty the premiership they truly deserve!!
