Knock-on Effect NSW Cup - Eels Team

[hindy111]

It could be he was a little lazy at training and they are teaching him a lesson.
Bonus might be seen as a fullback so want to run him there. W.Smith is top 30 so gets first pick

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I thought Fonua looked very good in attack although he mad a couple of errors in d. I thought he'd have to be a certain inclusion. Dodd played for the dragons and was told he wasn't great there.

Well he is outside the top 30, so it's unlikely he was ever great.

 

[Gazzamatta]

Wasnt there talk Parry was considering an offer from another club? Newcastle maybe? Could have something to do with his non selection.

 

[Gazzamatta]

Given Takas bench position in the NRL side dictates he only gets game time if there is an injury to one of the backs, is it likely he will run out for the "2s" each week?

It’d be a good idea if the 2s play after our 1s, like they do this week.

I don’t think it’s so much injures but how the game plays out. I reckon if we don’t get that try or dogs got in front there was good chance Taka probably comes on.

I'm sure if we weren't holding a narrow lead right up until full time he would've gotten a run.

 

[Gronk]

Ethan Parry is playing Ron Massey. Ouch.

[Poupou Escobar]

I see he got the equaliser that cancelled out the opening try scored by Moo Doh.

 

[Gazzamatta]

But if you're chasing points don't you want your best players on the field Poo?

Souths and Broncos had a back on their benches too.

You want your best attacking players on, who are not necessarily your best defenders. You might've noticed Junior Paulo was removed with a few minutes to go as well.

I doubt either would've gotten a run if they were only up by 6 with no injuries.

Unrelated, but Toronto Wolfpack only used 1 from their 4 man bench last night.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

If you only have 14 healthy players up to standard but you need to name 17 that's what happens.

but thats just in case there is an injury

Didn’t Souths plan to take Latrell off because he wasn’t fit for 80minutes? That’s not an injury.

 

[Cumberland Eel]

5 mins till kickoff on Channel 9 - might be the last time wenty plays for some time.

you're right, being fat isn't an injury
