Rd5 2024: 615pm Eels v Raiders GAME DAY THREAD @ GIO Stadium April 7th

[boxboy]

Fancy getting beaten by two shit teams

Or maybe no surprise as we are another shit team.

 

[King-Gutho94]

Bennett is 74 years old and although he wants to keep working, I can’t see him moving to Sydney and taking charge of this utter bin fire of a club.

Slater is unproven at club level but I’d absolutely give him a shot.

Maguire has already been thrown under the bus at a shit club. He won’t want to take this job on.

At this point, I’d even ask the Walker brothers if they’re interested.

If he goes to Souths it will make us look reactive yet again waiting around for an asteroid to knock some sense into our management.

 

[hindy111]

Will probably get Fittler

I'd go after Dean Pay and Jason Taylor as attack coach.

 

[84 Baby]

How many steps did you take today?

He’s in a wheelchair you f**king asshole

 

[hindy111]

He’s in a wheelchair you f**king asshole

Well if he ever visits my place he better wipe his wheels

Dean young too

 

[DaveMc]

I said this last year. The Dogs are closer to a premiership then we are.

Despite how awful we were, I still don’t buy this. Canterbury are miles off being even semi-decent, and their recruitment remains shit.

 

[84 Baby]

Well if he ever visits my place he better wipe his wheels

Just as long as you wipe his arse, I think he’ll be ok with that

 

[Tooooks]

I said this last year. The Dogs are closer to a premiership than we are.

So are the Titans. And whoever enters the comp as the 18th team.

 

[Parra Pride]

I thought he was no better than ok. He just doesn’t have the skillset or the tenacity to grab the team and bring them with him. Some of his kicking was putrid, and he had zero support from Blaize, in fairness. Either way, if he’s going to be the number one half, we are deeply f**ked.

Blaize is there in the 6, but both this week and last week it deadset looks like we are trying to avoid him actually playing as a half.

 

[the phantom menace]

The best thing that could come Out of this game is BA getting the Sack.

But (ping @emjaycee) why would we ever sack BA before his contract extension runs out at end of 2025 .

 

[Soto]

Drown tried his heart out. His kicks weren't bad

His kicking game apart from the long kick and ball caught in the in goal was fine...Gee Talagi...wow talk about talking up a kid way before his time..ppl say Asi can't tackle..at least he can kick and organise...talagi may end being a really good player but right now a deer in headlights.
Our 2 best players were Dylan and Simonsson...the rest need to take a good long hard look at themselves

 

[JokerEel]

I said this last year. The Dogs are closer to a premiership then we are.

And you seem to be correct

 

[Bandwagon]

Dylan's kicking games been good. They are busting us right up the guts. Our forwards are getting belted.
You seriously don't understand footy at all.

Yeah nah, our forwards held their own at the expense of our edge defense. Their Backs carved us.

Average set meters was 41. 3 v 39.8, that's despite 9 line breaks to 3.

Do you even watch the game?

 

[Arbitaar1]

Blaize is there in the 6, but both this week and last week it deadset looks like we are trying to avoid him actually playing as a half.

Sorry back to NSW cup blaze and let’s try sanders. Atleast it’s something different and maybe brown can just concentrate on his running game. Also bye bye lussick

 

[yy_cheng]

How about throw everything at Bellamy

 

[King-Gutho94]

I suppose Blaize was worth the risk.

But we can't have him there for 8 weeks.

We beat Penrith in Penrith last year with Asi in the halves.

We won 55% of games last year with Asi playing in the halves with Moses or Brown.

I think Talagi needs to be dropped back to reserves WITH THE RIGHT MESSAGE that he doesn’t deserve to be lumped with this shit show

I'd go Hands and MA next weekend.

About the same chance of winning a comp with BA.


Which is ZERO.
