Rd14 2024: Eels v Bulldogs GAME DAY THREAD @ Accor Stadium June 10th

[eels4life87]

Maybe something wrong. That's $600k per season. $400k + ( 50% x $400k ) = $600k. Looks like 50% is right.

Except the eels final offer for Reed was 650k

 

[Joshuatheeel]

The new coach's hardest job will be offloading several of our "stars" like Paulo and Lane and getting some good outside backs.

Thought lane was pretty good, apart from that dropped ball. Was pretty dangerous, probably best game of the year

 

[Pazza]

Dogs play with Heart. Plenty of money to spend also. Wait till they build a real forward pack and a proper halfback. I see a premiership within 4yrs.
We play like we are just going through the motions. Another day at work.

Dogs ain't winning nothing, we just can't defend

 

[King-Gutho94]

Yeah me too im rich..

Your shout then on Saturday where we meeting pre game

The Dogs were poor today, yet we still could not beat them.
They always looked more defensively intense than we did.
It shows where we are atm.

Dangerous? He busted one tackle. No line breaks.

We offered a three year deal, the dogs offered four. He took the deal giving him an extra $700K using your numbers, would you turn down an extra $700K from a new job offer?

 

[Pazza]

We gotta fix this defense. Would have rathered Harper out there and surely guymers gotta get a crack next week.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Only we could lose to a team that had a man in the bin for 10 mins and a team that had 20 dead players stretched off the field

Hopeless

We got a lot of work to do. Lomax helps but we need more

I’m glad he’s gone. If an extra year to a contract is worth more to him than sticking with a club who actually gave him a second chance to go back to the club that told him he wasn’t first grade material eels genuinely don’t need him

 

[Delboy]

Smart of the club to hire an academically over qualified person , who was moved from his last club, to head our recruitment area. A position he had nor held before, the evidence since 2021 tells the tale. Sorry emjaycee, it’s how it is.

 

[Avenger]

Brad Arthur is not blameless here. His stench is still all over this squad. I'd be moving on plenty over the off season.

 

[Suitman]

What is so disappointing but not surprising is that we had so many opportunities today to nail this game.
We never looked like doing it.

 

[84 Baby]

Defence? LMAO. The only reason the bulldogs didn’t score more were the forward passes and dropped balls in attack

Have you been asleep for past couple of months? All the bad defence was through Asi

Complete inability to see trends in the game and adapt. But this is the same organisation that doesn't review attack, doesn't teach players the rule book and doesn't have a fuxking team bus.

Obviously you were the one asleep during this game

The team also looks very unfit and unmotivated. The whole place needs an overhaul. I don't think anyone should survive.

i hope the new coach brings some new wingers and centres with him because i am getting sick and tired of other teams burning us on the edges like shelling f**king peas it happens regular as clockwork and something needs to be done about it

That's just an offer. If he was on 400 and now gets 600 that is a 50% increase.
