Rd8 2024: Eels v Manly GAME DAY THREAD @ 4 Pines Park April 26

[the phantom menace]

We're easy pickings - if not in the middle straight up then just wider, and if not just wider then on the egdes.

 

[Kilkenny]

If you didn’t know the score the Eels led the stats in most areas. The penalty count and set restarts heavily in Manlys favour not to mention the two sin bins. We got similarly hammered in the penalty count a couple of weeks back, it is not easy to overcome one sided penalty counts, they are a huge leg up.

 

[Gronk]

Cluster f**k that led to Penisini in the bin ?

'Big moment': Brad Arthur fumes at refereeing blunder as Tom Trbojevic mistake proves costly

Eels fans have every right to feel ripped off.

The home side is supposed to get the calls. As long as we get them when it's our turn I can't complain.

 

[the phantom menace]

The only thing that led to Penisini being in the bin is Penisini tackling a guy without and before he got to play at the ball.

BA and the club would be better advised to stick to fixing up what we can control, rather than worry about decisions of centimetres that don't excuse our dumb play.

We have soft underbelly. I don't think it was a terrible performance. With 10 to go had Sivo not done a bonehead play it's game on. Heck it's 4 tries to 3.
But we capitulated. And have done so against Canberra,Dolphins and Tigers also in 4/5 games.
Dooms day has come. I'm on the 4 peat bus now. Tell Muga B to clean the seats.

Are we living in the simulation????

It’s hard to overcome a lop sided penalty count, the momentum it provides makes it very difficult.

Sivo is a try scoring best from 10 metres out but is a liability otherwise. His actions leading to his sin bin just inexcusable.

4yrs extension. 2027 before he is gone

 

[JokerEel]

Better than last time we made the grand final. And the time before that.

Cool so we should sack the coach like in 2010

Btw check the first 8 rounds of 2010 think we won 4...

What a f**king stupid statement.
Officialdom is supposed to be impartial.
Further proof you just troll.

When did that occur?

Surprised you guys didn’t make a play for Turuva, particularly given his utility value, very useful back up fullback.

Agree on Turuva.

2022. He played 2 good games in a row.
Took a bomb against the Storm to win game in rnd 2. Like a teenager having his prick sucked for the first time management blew their loads and handed out 4yrs. Thought they had the next Semi.

We sacked the coach in 2010 and continued to decline. We didn't sack the coach in 2002 or 1987 and also continued to decline. Coaching is not the problem, but merkins think it will be the solution. Like Darryl Brohman said on 2GB, it's just looking for an instant fix: https://omny.fm/shows/the-continuous-call-team/its-time-why-gal-believes-eels-must-part-ways-with

He has scored 93 tries in 106 games ffs. Suddenly he's the scapegoat?

Well apparently it's not the coach not the HOF or recruitment. So us fans should just continue to enjoy the Losses

That's better then Bizza. But who would you prefer on similar coin?

 

[hineyrulz]

And there we have it
Excuse 1000.
Give the man a prize

Doing what he does best, playing the victim and gaslighting.

His credibility on here is being held together by sticky tape.

He needs to try harder with running the ball and try less hard with smashing merkins in defence. BA will sort him out.

I don’t know why I’m getting so much random attention from Statler and Waldorf today !
