Rd10 2024: 8pm Eels v Broncos GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank 10th May

[Eelementary]

Talagi and Pensini are NRL talents. Russel unfortunately is to slow and same goes for Sivo.
I don't mind Simmonson

I like Simonsson.

Don't rate Talagi.

Penisini is a weapon, and we have no idea how to use him.

Russell is average.

 

[Bandwagon]

Can a few of you answer this for me

Did we receive bad ref calls tonight?
and how influential was the refereeing in the result

cheers

No.

The reffing was pretty good. Shit just didn't roll our way.

 

[JokerEel]

Ennis is going on about how we haven't brought any Junior forwards through. He is right there isn't anyone in CUP apart from Guymer and Parker...

 

[Parra Cheeses]

Not in the top 8 this year. f**k, call it now. Bennett at all cost

 

[Wally21]

I’ve never been able to cop the lazy shitbag.

And who the fuvk thought lane would be a good choice for a documentary? He’s a lazy plodder with not much athletic ability and no personality. The only mildly interesting thing about him is he’s tall.

After BA he’d be the next one I’d like to shoot from a canon.

In all seriousness, he seems an intelligent man and is a deep thinker. However, he is just not the player he was 2 years ago. He would be the first player I would let look for another opportunity elsewhere

 

[Bandwagon]

I was actually shocked how well Blaize played I was predicting 3-4 dropped bombs.

He defended better than Walsh and took bombs better..

Walsh really did f**k all besides a coupla dumb errors pushing the play,

is he kidding??? they just play for other clubs

 

[TheParraboy]

Mitch back next week?

and gone for origin for 6 weeks?

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Agree with everything you have said Josh. But it’s a bit of a worry that we are excited by a good effort. If we had the playing roster of the Titans, I’d be ok with it. I’m not sure I’m ok with it considering our roster

Not excited, far from it!!

but also being realistic. The stats showed we did everything but ice some tries….while Broncos had some luck.

we had enough ball to win tonight and if Moses played tonight, I wouId be pissed!!

But we had 2, 19 old years in our spine…they were always going to struggle to ice some plays. Saunders probably bombed 2-3 tries Moses ices (Saunders, did good, but some passes slightly off)

 

[Eelementary]

BA loves chasing the collision, yet he continues to pick Sivo who is scared of doing so. It's baffling.

Sivo when 10m out from the opposition try line:



Sivo any time else:

Eele, Russell looked better tonight IMO. However he should be a back up, not top 17

If it wasn’t for the reffing we would have won every game this year.

I don't mind Russell, but as you say, he should be a back up.

I'd have him over Harper any day.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Once again Ennis, Parker and Graham are brain dead!! We made 200 plus metres then the broncos…..what game did they watch?

FFS 2 times off errors made broncos look fast….thought we handled their backs well

 

[Parra Cheeses]

Not our night. Not much went our way. It hurt gifting them 12 points.

We need pace, stat.

Not much went our way!!!! We are a pile
Of shite. So far off NRL pace

 

[Stormy36]

Dylan is not a right side player. He plays a tad sideways on the right. Genuine left side player that excels off his left foot. But we had no other option since Moses was out. Undoubtedly Broncos were lucky and I'm not cutting my wrist like half of you guys on here.

 

[Noise]

some poor individual errors/decisions (not effort) have cost us tonight

Yep, poor attention to detail and a shitload of dumb. It’s the same most weeks.

 

[JokerEel]

Not sure how anyone can complain about Blaize tonight First game at fullback in the NRL stuffed up a bomb in the first half but then didn't go in his shell took some bombs and got hit hard..

Cover defence was good as well. The Ma'am try was no way his fault he had to push into he line to cover a huge hole after Lussick went for another 4th tackle kick...

 

[hindy111]

I like Simonsson.

Don't rate Talagi.

Penisini is a weapon, and we have no idea how to use him.

Russell is average.

I think Talagi looks a real hot prospect. I'd say his ceiling is higher then Pensini who I rate also.

I thought the refereeing was great. Even keel the whole way. Struggling to think of any howlers?
Both teams failed their challenges (ie ref was right)
