Rd16: Eels v Rabbits GAME DAY THREAD @ Accor Stadium 2/7/22

[The Predictor]

Interestingly there was some criticism about our junior recruitment this week, prioritising athleticism over footy smarts. It’s definitely how BA prioritises his footy teams for a “chase the collision” style of play. I don’t like it.

Because it doesn’t fkn work

 

[Happy MEel]

Because it doesn’t fkn work

It works sometimes when every merkin is up for it. The problem is though, if the effort isn’t there for whatever reason we’ve got no plan b

 

[The Predictor]

Yep. Makatoa is a reserve grader. I’ve never seen a bloke as big as him get belted so often. His runs destroy our momentum.

He’s been like that from the get go, Brads the only imbecile that can’t see it

 

[Eelogical]

Direction and leadership are lacking. Trying to score off first opportunities smacks of rolling the dice when they should be trying to force a repeat set or two. Bunnies have forced 5 dropouts to our 0. Dropped balls and forced passes are killing us.

 

[eel01s]

Rubbish performance so far.

 

[hineyrulz]

How do we get burnt on the edges week after week and nothing is ever done to rectify it??? How did this incompetent idiot get yet another contract extension???

Only at Parra.

They pic and choose when there up for it, there in lies the problem

 

[PARRA_FAN]

This is just typical, not playing to the conditions

There never has been, in 9 f**king years. I hate playing these merkins they do us easy every f**king time.

I’d love to know our record under BA following a bye or a week off.

Did BA sort them out at halftime?

 

[Eelogical]

Play like that again for the next 15 minutes and they'll roll us.

I feel like they play hero ball cause are sent out there without a plan.

 

[Eelectrica]

Parrasurge coming apparently

Don't know. Doubt it.

They definitely will if they score more points than us.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Don't know. Doubt it.

They'll probably be less adventurous. Usually are.

 

[84 Baby]

Went too early? He was never onside

 

[hindy111]

800k a year for that?

 

[Noise]

Gutherson might be having the worst season of his career.
