Rd11: Eels v Manly GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank 20/5/22

[Matty Bhoy]

Do they??? Kaufusi made some decent runs tonight from what i remember, Brown was a little better but still a shadow of the player that he was 2 or 3 years ago.

It wasn’t his worst game, I agree, but he’s absolutely got a critical mistake in him and I think Brown bends the line more, and Maka offers more in defence.

 

[JokerEel]

Top of the table ring a bell?

Oh it must hurt being beaten by us having to come into the Eels forum trying to get your own win.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Don’t worry guys, we have BA under lock and key for another two years whilst we navigate our rebuilding years

Good.

 

[hineyrulz]

Too right mate.. Eels are pretenders at best..

And you have come in here armed with a wet lettuce leaf, hang your head in shame. As inept as an Eels set play.

 

[IFR33K]

I thought we were beaten in the forwards again, We had to return to Parraball to make some inroads. Matto was our best forward again.

Yeah said it early on they’re monstering our forwards.

 

[yy_cheng]

It was good that paps could take a break

Cable Foxtel?

maybe satellite foxtel
i remember mum used to watch the game on nine in the kitchen while i was on fox in the loungeroom and there was a good 2-4 second delay

Brown hasn't bent the line in yonks, and his play the ball is one of the slowest in the comp. One is leaving and barely makes our top 17 while one of one of most highest paid forwards and meant to be a leader. As i said he looks a shadow of the player he was.

 

[The Predictor]

Injured again?

Maybe he’s going to the warriors at the right time?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Mate we’re playing shit like we have the past month. Everyone at the club deserves the shit they are getting

You can't be up every week mate, and we've generally won when we weren't. Our only really poor performances were vs Tigers and Cowboys. The other times we've been at least adequate. Nine adequate (or better) performances in the first half of the year is good enough for me. Don't pretend your standards are any f**ken higher merkin

 

[strider]

If you are streaming foxtel then you are probably lucky to be less than 10 seconds behind live

 

[hineyrulz]

Yep. It all comes out in the wash. The penalty count shows how Manly could only stop us by cheating. We probably should've gotten more penalties. Manly were f**ken pumped for this game. They got off their line very quickly.

That fat Cheeseburger Jake T should of given up about 6 set restarts.

Yeah is has had one good game this year. Been fairly bad for a while now. Last season he looked like he was on a down hill slide.
Shame we didn't let him go and could of kept Papali'i.

 

[yy_cheng]

I hate jake t

We don’t need to be up every week, we need to ge consistent!!

 

[Poupou Escobar]

So glad he’s here for 4 more years then huh??

Well I hope he doesn't play like this for the next four years. Do you think he will? I hope you're right mate. That's what matters. Crowing when you think your team's going to f**ken lose you deadshit merkin

 

[the phantom menace]

Loved the footage of Bryce in the dressing room, looking like a ballboy wearing a fan jacket, sitting in awe while talking to the real players waiting for the trainer to take off their padding and tape!

Yeah mate, it kills me we won the Comp after knocking Parramatta out last year. I am hurting big time, only because we are leading the Comp again. But good try..

 

[Poupou Escobar]

We don’t need to be up every week, we need to ge consistent!!

No team is consistent. Even the top teams win some games by narrow margins. If their rosters were only as strong as ours they would lose those close wins.

We are losing Papa and Marata, and potentially Matto while keeping some of the older players who seem to be a little of the pace of late. That bye can't come soon enough.
