Round 1 Eels V Broncos

[hindmarshisgod]

Kelly is shit

Thats all.

 

[The Colonel]

Bunker was good. Maybe the Jennings thing deserved a real time view, but otherwise OK.

I didn't think they had hold of him, Hunt maybe had a leg hair, and had every right to promote the ball. Real time would have made a difference.

 

[phantom eel]

You've always defended the coaching staff and mediocre players over the past few years.

Maybe that's down to serving in the forces... can't question authority?

If they were doing the right thing then why have we been so terrible? We've seen Kelly play since 2013. Anyone who's seen him play since that time should know we aren't getting anywhere with him in the team. Are you saying trying something new wouldn't have been worth s go?

Trying something new would have been better imo. Not necessarily Cornish in first grade, but maybe Peats, Edwards or Gower as a distributor alongside Norman in attack?

All academic though, once Norman went down we had no real attacking options to fall back on. Good job to not let the score blow out badly late in the game, Scott will be a fantastic addition to this squad - and captain material too!

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Very proud of the boys!! Everyone put 100%!!

Great defence and bloody good effort to not let the score blow out.

Plenty to like and we are in for a good year as long as we don't have to many injuries.

Agreed mate. Great effort, but bad luck to lose both halves.

Yes

As Gus said - A lot to like about Parra.

Terepo was great -All our bench went well. Wicks will come in for Alvaro.Give a little more thrust.

Kaysa could be a star.KE looks dynamite.

Gordon was ok I thought. Strong running the ball but did get caught out positionaly a few times. Why he rushed up on that second try?

Gutherson disappointed me the most. Not foot work and no real power. First game thou from major injury thou.

 

[The Colonel]

We will win plenty of games this year. Scott was great in defence. Foran is probably the best defensive half in the comp and will give us plenty of options in attack. It was smart not to play him. I was really disappointed in Gordon. Maybe the head knock slowed him. Gee I love Pritchard. I would have him over Peats anyday of the week.

Yep. Peats was gutsy in the middle. Almost 60 tackles. Would have been interesting with both Norman and Foran on the field and Pritchard being able to spell Peats. He plays well above his weight.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

It's more the realisation they have better information than the rest of us. And don't get where they are without proving competence.

 

[chanticleer]

alot to work on but happy with second half

 

[phantom eel]

Was also really disappointed with Paulo not sure the reduced interchange is going to suit his game he was out of steam after 15mins.

And that's probably why we're not paying overs and letting him go to Canberra next season. The game is changing, and with even less interchanges in the future players have to be fit.

 

[hineyrulz]

Yeah the coach must know less about the game than a bunch of Internet nuffies.

You also used that line with Kearney, if Langmack was coach you would use the same BS line as well.


Tell us all again how Cornish would of played worse the Kelly??? Without your mates Seffa and Morgs to cling too you only have this useless excuse for a footballer left.

My mates missus who knows absolutely nothing about sport let along RL said what is that number 19 doing out there he has no idea. He should be working at a toll gate somewhere lol.


Mates clueless GF>>>>>>>>> BA>>>>>>>>> Homeless wino with Alzheimer's >>>>>>>>>> a week old leftover burrito>>>>>>> Pou the RL expert who once did a coaching course with Rod Reddy's left testicle.

Yeah... and nah.

All people are fallible - those in high places just as much as those below.

Suppose you can't bring yourself to criticise eorge Pell due to his position and info either? :sarcasm:

 

[hindy111]

I had a mate -Dragons supporter..Txt me and say Kelly should play for Mt druit KE has more flair.

Peats 57 tackles, 0 misses. that's why he's there.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Well it's true. Kearney and Langmack both know more about footy than you do. That's how little you know.

 

[phantom eel]

Peats 57 tackles, 0 misses. that's why he's there.

Agree. He owns the #9 jersey.

Only times he hasn't in the past 2 seasons were through injury.

Pritchard is handy to have around and has potential, but I don't think is even close to being a potentially 80min first choice player yet?

 

[^b0ss^]

kelly played sh*t no doubt but is Cornish better you cant say, just goes to show how hard it is to replace a good half, just glad we have a really good one.

Im happy he didnt play if he wasnt right,lets hope we get foran fit and on the park as soon as possible.

 

[phantom eel]

Well it's true. Kearney and Langmack both know more about footy than you do. That's how little you know.

"Um... er... the lads... something something..."
- Supercaoch Kearney, lucky to have ever landed a club coaching gig

 

[Parramatta1947]

Nothing has proven to me that Arthur is a supercoach - tonight proved it again

Picking Kelly was a masterstroke....
