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

[Soto]

Sarantinos can stick around if the club is making money and growing..

O'Neil and Rogers can Piss off now..

Who who and who

 

[Soto]

Apart from the scoreline...what an enjoyable evening....I mentioned earlier in the week when we are the last game of the round we have an appalling record...just a weak, rudderless lot running the joint from top down

Sarantinos is part of the problem with our gutless club atm. Just bends over and cops whatever decision is made from the NRL.

He sounds similar to how Tim Mannah used to speak personally. Just dribble and gibberish.

He is in the foetal position for most of the time. I deadset reckon he disappears for a holiday to Greece for 4 months of the year. You never hear from him.

Where is he in the media pushing the clubs cause or case for anything.

Where was he last year when we got shafted with shithouse draw to the start the year with timeslots and teams off byes.

Where was he when matto accepted a 3 game ban instead of a fine. Stepping in and going wtf is going are we seriously sending this in the NRL.

What the actual f**k...

Dally Ms are a joke now...

I agree but most should be the Head Of Footballs job.

We see Gould all over the media as the head of Football at the dogs I don't know who the CEO is..

I guess I know Blake Sully at South's he is their CEO ...

So eone at our club needs to do their job

Put Scomo in...that's not my job

BA might get sacked before Moses gets here. I don't think the team looked like they have a win in them.

We're down on form and confidence. We've been here before. 2021 we had a narrow loss followed by three straight floggings. Merkins pissed and moaned about not winning another game before we steadied the ship and went down to Penrith by two in that semi final.

You have to wonder who the f**k thought Dylan Brown was the second best player on the field.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Sanders may be one of only a handful of players that have a long kick like Moses.

I suspect he doesn't. Even Moses didn't have this kicking game at the same age. The year he turned 20 (Sanders' age this year) he played under 20s for half the season before coming into first grade at fullback for six weeks. He played the final four games in the halves and in those four games he kicked the ball six times.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I also don’t agree with your take on the team being gassed. It was a 16 degree night where they didnt display any line speed. Getting run over may have led to fatigue later, but it certainly wasn’t the catalyst.

Agreed. Lack of ball control started the rot, then fatigue set in.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Seriously, is he scared of upsetting his players? Why the f**k is he mollycoddling grown men?

Did you watch the presser? He said they were shit. He isn't looking for scapegoats. Drown is the only one he defended.

 

[the phantom menace]

I suspect he doesn't.

You suspect? Or you don't watch the games and players you can't help but pass (asinine) comment on...

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Yeah nah. Anyone who doesn't agree with me isn't a true fan is a shit merkin argument for dumb f**ks

True fans don't celebrate when we lose though.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

The one constant is BA

We were shit before him, winning wooden spoons in the two years before he took over. Merkins carry on like he joined the club in 1987 ffs

 

[Poupou Escobar]

BA is probably scratching his head wondering why the team is so poor on game day when they are absolutely smashing it against our reserve grade side at training...

Or y'know, against Manly two weeks ago.

 

[the phantom menace]

It's a #pounami of shit posts

 

[Poupou Escobar]

We gave it up on the edge defending our middle, we didn't work hard inside out, so yeah 100%.

Mostly we cover that though, tonight we really didn't. It's not like it requires some kind of savant to recognize our edge defense is our weakness.

I put it to you that our middle defence is our weakness and we compress more than other sides to cover that.

Fairy sure you are secretly celebrating..

So many posts are coming to defend the club!

No denying he's done a good job over the years but now it's time to tap him and move him on...no emotion about it. It's not working now and we won't get to the finals this yr so it's time to part company. It's 11 yrs. Need to stop the rot now before it gets worse

It seemed like a specific tactic from the Raiders to attack our edges from their own half, when our defence is even more compressed.
