It’s ok guys. This isn’t our lowest and attempting to fix it will only send us further backward. God damn salary cap rorts are still hurting us.

Watmough was on huge coin, star like money in fact. Hayne, who the f**k knows. The point is they were both big name signings for BA. You seem to be making up excuses for BA, but it’s obvouisly clear he’s all out of them.
There was an article saying he was due 550k for 2 seasons and parra were taking QBE to court over the insurance ... i thought he would have been on more .... but 550k isnt star money

The final.vs the Cows last week showed us how overrated this team is

Gutho is our own positive

We played Penrith in round 5 last week. Or do you mean the final last year? Our attack was bad in that game too.The only tries we scored in that final were length of the field run away tries against the run of play.

It may not be your job but if you shit bag someone and suggest that something could be done better then it is not unreasonable to expect someone to call you on it.
Well I’ve stated what I’d do as a starting point but that’s irrelevant. Serious question for you Gary, have you seen anything in the last 6 games to suggest we’re about to turn a corner? If so, then i must be watching different games to you. If not, isn’t that the coach’s responsibility?

It’s completely relevant. Otherwise it is just uninformed hot air.

We have a long road ahead. No doubt.

is there any point making changes now?

the time for that was two weeks ago when our season was still alive now it just feels like shuffling the deck chairs on the titanic

My suggested changes are exactly that. But what isn’t is the fact we need a change. As I mentioned I’d be looking at selections and positional changes, but first and foremost I’d be looking at an addition of an attacking coach.

IMO we have played to a similar structure these first 6 games, with varying levels of effort and attitude. It clearly hasn’t worked. We need change to break this losing culture/habit.
Edit: the change needs to be significant enough for the players to buy into the fact it can change their season. I was hoping Guth’s attitude might have done the trick but sadly not.

lots of vision inside The Eels dressing room before, during and after the game. Anyone see any vision of Hayne? Or Taka?

Just watching the press conference if people think BA has a clue of getting us out of this they are deluded.

0 from 6 and he’s doesnt want to make any rash decisions.

FMD!!
and he was happy with the effort

even with hair he'd still be useless i reckon

I know how I can gaurantee us winning next week!

Manly is currently $1.65 favourites, that in anyone’s books is massive overs, legit should be $1.10... so with my terrible punting ability and shit luck, if I load up on the ‘overs’ it’s sure to come undone as it always does!

Are you Paul Kent ?

That would have to sit at No.345 in the crisis list right now.

Taka is back training with the group. Pics posted by the club this week.

Hayne has hip and quad injuries so maybe 6 hours in a bus you leave him at home ?
