Rd6 2024: 530pm Eels v Cowboys GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank Stadium Apr 13th

[Soren Lorenson]

He has been garbage all season

He was good round 1.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I can’t remember back that far

Well I can assure you I’m right.

I think he was ok against the Riff, but otherwise average

 

[Avenger]

Someone has hacked Pou’s account.

 

[Cumberland Eel]

I think he looks to be slowing up a lot tbh.

Guths busted already as well I reckon. Could see his reaction after taking a kick v Tigers. Probably why Russel took that first kick.

@hineyrulz the mad
Merkin has hacked him!!

"Looks" being the operative word, he's always looked slower than he is because he has a mongy as f**k looking running style. It's all effort and no finesse.

 

[Bandwagon]

Yep, and the tricks in his attack bag are starting to dwindle too. Defence is still very good, but he very seldom looks like a threat in attack. Through a lot of the game I was thinking to myself what we could be with someone like Drinkwater at fullback.

The King 1lb 2lba's 1ta 18 runs 158m

Drinkwater 1 try 2lba's 2 Ta's 13 runs - 92m

Drinkwater is talented no doubt, but is he really better than the King? I'd say f**king not.

Yes, Drinkwater is much better in attack. He is constantly threatening with ball in hand, Gutho isn’t.

In the end it was a great win. But geez we have some shit in the team. Lussick is horrendous, Harper hopeless.

‘Threatening’ is only part of the game. You also need to provide output. Over 80 minutes it all adds up.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I thought we were clearly the better team in the second half, but how the f**k were we in front at halftime? Maybe luck really is a thing after all

He provides greater attacking output too.

Derpwater

 

[Matty Bhoy]

Gutsy win and usually we’d lose a game like that. In fact many teams would. Enjoy the win boys, it’s a huge 2 points gained without Mitch. We looked much more balanced with Asi.

 

[emjaycee]

And most of them was before a pubic hair was sighted.

*all of them

We made our luck with effort, we were shit the first ten, but dug deep the rest of the game.

He was very composed. I liked that the coach put him on his preferred left side as well, moving Drown to the right.

 

[JokerEel]

Was at the game and couldn't see but why was Lussicks second try taken off him? Was he in front of the line?
