The correct and only answer is nepotism

Not true. Injuries. The Eels have a number of outside backs out just trying to do put out the best 17 they can Given there injury issues.

Incorrect. Any backrower at centre would be better than moving their best half out there. We are going to do a real number on them next weekend

 

[WestyLife]

Eels had 18 fit players. He was going to be in the roster no matter what.

 

[Westernised Panther]

Seems like a great bloke, awful coach though

Just like Matt Elliot

 

[Hooked]

Lol Eels. Someone check on Hindy again

Brown moving to centre is not a good move.

It has been Dylan Brown's best year in first grade. They have weakened their halves to 'strengthen' another position. They got away with it against a terrible Newcastle side but they were impotent yesterday. Also they got flogged down their right side so there will be changes.

I'd have Lane, Matterson, Arthur or even the turnstile Cartwright at centre before Brown.

If BA is adamant to that Jake is next man up, select him at centre rather than move 1 of your first choice halves.

 

[betcats]

If they run out with Arthur and brown like that next week we should be targeting them, it’s not a good defensive combo. If they move arthur back to the halves they will have a makeshift centre so still will be a good target. They will be fired up but they still look like great front runners but not great in a tight game, if our defence holds for the first 30 mins we will get over them.

Cows were very impressive. The defence in the first half was exceptional. Why Parra would choose the Cows of all teams to play in Darwin is a headscratcher though.

Maybe thinking NQ have got some following up there. It's the second time they've done it and both times they were flogged.

Often in these cases the club is given a list of preferences by the host region. Given they pay the $ fair enough

Todd Dulux Payten has done a Cleary and turned a shithouse team into finals contenders.

Major proof in senior players performing well for the first time in years. Taumalolo and Holmes in particular.

Curious to see how they navigate through Origin. They will have a few reps but their halves and 9 will remain intact. Drinkwater is quite a fair fill in at fullback too.

Again built on developing young players

The sooner teams realise this the better

Payten has a massive selection headache with the Hammer.

Moving Holmes from fullback took massive stones from a rookie coach.

The Chad still has the occasional shocker in him but can game manage and Deardon can learn from him.

Brave to sign Chad and Dearden too. Both were on the scrapheap last year. They are doing alright.

Holmes is on way overs

Glad they found a way to work around it

Melbourne showing why they are the best in the nrl

 

[forby]

The best flat track bullies it almost seems. Can’t beat Parra or Penrith.

Realistically Newcastle were totally inept. They would have been smashed by every team in the NRL playing like that.

Yep, I watched a bit of the Knights game last week and they were pretty inept. Ponga a star? Maybe in a different universe.

 

[WestyLife]

You can by the way he talks in interviews Ponga doesn't care. He's taking the money and living the life. Good on him but glad it isn't my club.
