Eels 44 to 10. F/T
So the verdict is what ? Who apologises to who ?Just caught up on all the chat about whether or not Cayless can coach from last week.
We seem to have empirical evidence suggesting he doesn't know what he is doing.
In a 13 a side game, he has only picked 12.
Clear evidence of incompetence.
Or is it some bizarre Chris Anderson "no markers" tactic???
The ONLY possible conclusion is that Cayless has become frustrated at his wingers inability to catch bombs and mark up defensively. So he is trying the tactic of "if there is no winger they can't kick to them or catch them out in defence".
The proof will be in the pudding on game day.
Either it works and is a master-stroke. In which case Cayless can coach and you all owe Gronk an apology.
Or it doesn't work, and is one of the dumbest experiments ever. In which case Gronk owes apologies.
The third possibility is that Cayless chickens out and picks a winger late. Clear evidence that he listens to outside forces and doesn't believe in himself or his own tactics. Which makes him a crap coach, and Gronk owes apologies.
Let's see how it plays out.
It seems quite clear that he chickened out and took advice elsewhere, picking a 5, and thus acknowledging he can't coach.So the verdict is what ? Who apologises to who ?

I believe the ball is in your court to apologise to all those you stoushed with
Its round 10 for us baby so we can now get sone newbies into the teamIts about opportunity I reckon. Lets face it how often have these blokes been given opportunities over the past couple of years. I reckon Cini would be another worth promoting.
Looking at the team list so has Momoisea.Looking at the team lists, looks like Davey has surpassed Murchie already

Jordan Rankin says Hi.Talking points
Today’s match was another reminder of the importance of having NRL experience in your NSW Cup side. The Eels were blessed to have Daejarn Asi, Isaac Lumelume, Zac Cini, Jake Arthur, Matt Doorey, debutant Andrew Davey, and Jack Murchie who have all notched up a number of NRL games. It was this experience that allowed them to beat the Knights so convincingly.
