Knock-on Effect NSW Cup - Eels Team

[Poupou Escobar]

Let's be honest if MA wasn't playing this week and Sanders was still in cup Hands would be starting hooker..

#utility?

 

[JokerEel]

f**k yeah, let’s play a reserve grader in his favourite position ffs. Then we’ll win the comp. You couldn’t make this shit up.

Like last year when he had to play in first grade after geriatric broke down .. But yeah the club know better than us right we didn't say it was going to happen........

 

[Poupou Escobar]

In sure the club knew his age and injury history. These risks are all rolled into the price.

In the end the club did the right thing apparently

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Older players get injured. I suppose they did the wrong thing re-signing Gutherson, Moses and Cartwright? All 30 this year, all injured. The f**ken idiots running the club thought those merkins would play every game. But I f**ken told em so!!!

How's that 12th position going still 12th yep 12th

Yeah but the club did the right thing

In previous years we’ve finished 3rd and 4th. There’s 17 possible ladder positions ffs. Someone has to run 12th. What matters is where we finish, but even then it’s only one season. There’s always a bit of luck involved.

In previous years we’ve got the wooden spoon. You’re going in circles again Pou.
although, when I get done for shitting on our chairman’s car after another ordinary performance, I want you on my defense team in court. Are you available? Just in case of course

 

[Jake the snake]

Boooooods

 

[hineyrulz]

Booooooooooooods is the answer!!

 

[King-Gutho94]

And your sure Brendan wants to be a Hooker and not a 5/8th?

He did play his 2 of his 3 games before elevation to the NRL at 5/8th.

Wouldn't have a clue

But if thats the case clearly the coaching staff don't rate him in the halves.

We have gone through three 5/8ths since Moses got injured and Hands hasnt got a look in ahead of two young kids and Asi.

 

[Pazza]

The correct answer is brad is clueless

He just throws darts into the dark

Someone has to be shit why not be us hey .

The administration that oversaw those spoons is gone. Our worst finish under them was last year’s 12 wins.

So how often should we miss the finals before blowing the club up and starting again?

 

[JokerEel]

Well most of us dopey fans can see it's not about making the finals when you should blow the club up and start again but how the club is moving forward thorough development, recruitment, retention and player longevity.

MON and the recruitment team should have been replaced after the 2022 Grand Final due to the players we let go and the players we signed.

Something needs a change and it has been highlighted enough on here but head on the sand won't like change.

and Brendan was available for how many?

Missing from all team sheets till round 3 when he played 5/8th for Cup. Missing the next week then Hooker in cup for round 5, 5/8th in cup in round 6,7, and first grade bench in round 8 and back to 5/8th in cup this week.
Now your real question should be "Is he a better half then Blaize, Dejean or Ethan?" To which I will go with "no" which is why it wasn't in firsts at that position.

They will argue that if he’s not seen as an NRL half then he shouldn’t be playing there in reserve grade. We should rissole Matt Arthur, who is a better dummy half, so that Hands can magically become a first grader. As though the only thing holding him back is lack of regular starts at hooker in reserve grade.

If Hands didn’t have utility value he wouldn’t be in the top thirty. At any club.

Well if Hands isn't seen as an NRL half and MA is the next hooker let him go.
Josh Lynn could be playing in CUP instead send Hands to RMC.

But we all know the club has NFI idea and Hands will be in first grade next week as a backup hooker when Lussick shits the bed another astute signing...


"They will argue" gee you are a stooge..
