after Moses's performance - Parra will go on a run of sorts - wont make the 8 but will avoid the spoon

Parra could have

Peak Lockyer, Joey and Cam Smith

Still would struggle with Mr 30% in the coaches box.

Well Mr 15% from his last 2 years of coachinh

Dunno about that.

Eels biggest issue is that no-one in their forward pack is willing to put in the hard work early. Paulo, RCG, Cartwright and Hopgood all look to promote the ball - either before the line, or offloading after contact. Sometimes you just need to be head down and run hard.

That's what NSW did best last night - just ran over QLD - and Moses played off the back of that brilliantly.

If the Eels forwards aren't getting him on the front foot, I don't think he can drag their sorry asses along for the ride.

Moses is also poor in the mid field.

He has a good long and short kicking game but his bombs are poorly directed end over end standard high punts.

In the 2022 prelim he put two out on the full and in the GF surrendered the game in the seventeenth minute wasting a quick play the ball kicking direct to Edwards.

He loves the short side raid but good defences know it is coming.

There was poor work from marker on both sides last night not watching for a player swinging around from open to blind side.

Except for Yeoweh who did see the play forming and collared his man.

On another note Spencer needs to defend on the left side. His ruck urgency in defence is poor.
