Source?

 

[Jake the snake]

I’m embarrassed to follow this team. Our management have screwed us.

 

[T-Boon]

Source?

No, mushrooms

The Boods era has begun

I didn't see game but talked to dad.He said he was Slow,poor service and small.

Sounds exciting.

I don't know, but I'm beginning to think that maybe, just maybe, Barret is the problem for the lack of intensity since his arrival. His laidback nature is rubbing off on the players.

The next coach needs to be a hothead that won't miss with these soft cock players

 

[TheCrowe]

Absolutely zero. The amount of wind blown up this kid's arse is astonishing. I couldn't care if he leaves.

I was thinking that if he has serious pace its a valuable asset and all other aspects of his game can be worked on.
Without pace what position is he suited to? To me those 2 chases suggests we do not go all out to keep him.
He should go back to reserve grade.
We should have a look at someone like Connor Votano instead.
I think his manager has done him a disservice putting him in the spotlight too early.

It has to be a consideration, particularly for these mentality piss weak merkins.

 

[JokerEel]

I feel for Moses..

Guy showed on Wednesday what he is capable and again tonight scored 2 great tries.

We just have too many reserve grade players around him...

 

[eel01s]

The Eels know how to disappoint.

Not many players that I think are must keeps going forward:

Moses
Brown
Cartwright

Hopgood I think has been just ok but I will give him a pass purely because I don't know how long he was playing injured.

Everyone else I couldn't care if they left. Many HAVE to be moved on.

We tend to overrate our players. Blaize, Penisini, Paulo, Matterson. Will was terrible tonight. His defence has fallen off a cliff, and he keeps running diagonally to the sideline.

On the video ref, WTF is going on? You can't tell me Sivo didn't score, and what about the "knock on" call against Sivo in the corner???

I think some fresh ideas will do a lot of these players good.

Yep if he was a tad faster he gets 1 or 2 more tries..

There is nothing stopping him working on his speed over the off-season..

There will be a few sprint coaches free after the Olympics have finished!

 

[Hindmarshisgod2]

I honestly thought highly of Russell before this season....I can't believe how shit he is. He's not even a reserve grader. He belongs in Park footy.

 

[JokerEel]

Defense!!!!!

 

[hindy111]

Penisini has to be dropped. I couldn’t be more off him. @Avenger can we please add him to the shit list. He has been terrible all year.

Pensini is a great player in my eyes and is just playing in a sbit side. He is still 21. Give him u till he is 23 and he will shine.
Sides f**ked. Guths cooked, forwards are done wingers are slow.

 

[hindy111]

RCG missed 7 tackles. He’s been so shit.

He has missed the most tackles in comp by a prop

 

[hindy111]

No, mushrooms

Magic?
