Knock-on Effect NSW Cup - Eels Team

Kaufusi has given stupid penalties away but he’s making massive metres every time he runs the ball

Yes he has some strengths. But I can see why he isn't playing NRL.
Defense and fitness needs work.

Massive metres? 7 runs for 64m is pretty f**king average.

 

[Incorrect]

Rhys Davies is rocks and diamonds.... Mostly rocks in the 1st half, hope he provides something better in the 2nd stanza. Salmon needs to get more involved IMO

 

[Happy MEel]

Agree, Stefano and Kaufusi just look like 100 other really big islander kids.

Are there many really big islander kids aged 19 and 20 consistently playing prop in reserve grade?

They have plenty of development in them, they’re doing fine.

 

[Cumberland Eel]

I said it during a trial game....credit to those die hards who go out and watch Wenty / reserve grade on a regular basis. It's f**king terrible footy.
Then there is the women's game......

Has there ever been a time when reserves has been good footy?

Nope, which is why credit needs to be given to those fans who regularly watch this hot garbage.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

This a weird game... There's some really solid hits and defence at times, and then other times, soft as a sick dog's turd....

It's what happens when you have full timers and part timers (or full timers who are poor defenders) in the same defensive line.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

They're still very young. Hoping they come good.

I reckon they'll both become solid first graders. There's nothing shameful about that. Every club needs a whole bunch of them.

BA the talent spotter has given this bloke another contract.

 

[Happy MEel]

Davies has to be one of the worst kicking halves I’ve ever seen.

Salmon needs to take over kicking duties

To be fair, he has Salmon who would be next cab off the rank as back up half. How many clubs (other than the cheats) can have 2 really good quality half back ups? Wenty are in the GF, he can't be too terrible.

True, when you play by the rules you can't have depth.

 

[Happy MEel]

FFS Davies.

Agree. He is fine if we need to use him in FG. He is waaay down the depth chart however, bc as you say, we have Salmon and Drown if Moses is out for a bit.

 

[Kornstar]

Look at the Broncos, all that talent to choose form and 1 team town and look at how well their backup halves went this year.

Absolutely. My comment was harsher than I intended.

 

[Gronk]

FFS Davies.

Good job Davies.

 

[Happy MEel]

That’s lucky

 

[Happy MEel]

Good job Davies.

Did I miss something he did?

Did I miss something he did?

Ran into unsquare markers to get a penalty.
