Rd21 2024: Eels v Storm GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank Stadium July 26th

[JokerEel]

Don’t mind it Happy, however
- RCG definitely over Paulo
- Matto to be traded out and replaced with anyone we can get who is a team player. I would even maybe persevere with Doorey or have Guymer on an edge.
- would start blooding the big unit who played in the 19’s Origin off the bench as another middle
-

Sam needs to get a run in CUP first

 

[Chipmunk]

Tago is up there with one of the worst that has ever played for us. He is looks like a school kid out there. It’s not like he’s having a crack he’s just shit.

In fairness, he wasn't even considered in the best 40 players at the club at the start of the season, in a club that has no outside backs.

 

[Nutz]

He was starting to hit his straps, pity.

I spoke to him for a while at a private function in Brisbane and he said he didn't want to leave the Tigers, but of course we let him go and end up with someone like Bateman who's pissed of back to the dart...cry baby.

 

[JokerEel]

If Russell can get some speed and sprint training he will be a good winger...


That would be the first tests as a coach I would be conducting sprint testing over 10 meters and then over 50.

 

[Sensei Cobra]

Cmon he started the yr in Ron Massey Cup.
He is having a go but just doesn't cut it as a 1st grader...he is literally 8th choice or so.
Let's just say imagine he was in a winning side he would look alright.
Don't for one moment think I'm suggesting he's a 1st grader but he's have a massive go and that's all we can ask with so many players out..
I still reckon Cini and or Lumelume should be ahead of him...but at least he's having a go

Great response…I mean f**k me what a piss poor bogan comment to start with.

Looks like he will be back for the Panthers game in 2 weeks

 

[Incorrect]

We need some speed in our backline that’s for sure

And some coke and some MDMA....

Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue....

 

[Soto]

Was a good effort..

If we didn't leak those first 2 tries on the back of errors we could have been in it a lot longer..

Asi got hooked again...

Not sure if we got hooked or he was done from copping a few knocks.
I would still have Ethan Sanders as the 7 despite him leaving.
Asi is also having a go but just not good enough.
We have to remember some of these blokes are in because there is no-one left to pick

This is true .. our team is stacked with reserve graders

Thanks Joker, I'll hang onto him.

 

[Nutz]

In the presser your coach is saying you guys are missing 10 starters, wow, who are they?

Coach just said 3 weeks

 

[EelsFan05]

If we pay anywhere around $400-$450k for Blaize, we are getting bent over big time.

And realise Talagi is way too slow for FB.

Feels like a Moral victory like the English cricket team.

 

[King-Gutho94]

Bea Arthur didn’t want him in the top 30, that was a MON Nathan Brown call.

Gee I wonder why??

Brad arthur has screwed this joint over like no tomorrow.

Boods spitting the dummy is the final straw for the Arthur clan.

None of them should be welcomed back ever again

 

[Soto]

Sivo, Simonsson, Dunster, Moses, hopgood, Kelma, Paulo, Guymer...that's who I can think of...

 

[Noise]

Moses
Paulo
Hopgood
Sivo
Kelma
Guymer
??

 

[RustedonEel]

I count 7, 2 of whom will be back this year

 

[Noise]

Dunster isn’t a starter.
