Round 6 TLT vs Titans

[eels_fan]

Seems like a bloody hard squad to name for Ryles, with a bunch of players with niggling injuries likely meaning we won’t have a clear picture on their availability until later in the week. I’d expect changes before Sunday to what is named at 4pm.

definitely out from our top 27
Hopgood
Doorey
Simonssen
Iongi
Russell
Penisini 1
Penisini 2
Pezet

[King-Gutho94]

MONs recruitment is really going to be underscope here.

We have injuries and now stuck with RMC depth coming out of our arse in positions we dont have cover for that isn't helping Ryles and the trajectory the club wants to go.

If i am Ryles just throw Lorenzo in there and see how he goes

 

[Wizardssleeve]

Titans by 12. 24 if Moses is out.

 

[King-Gutho94]

Maybe 18 and get someone to kick straight.

Thats what cost us today Wiz when you boil it down to the nitty gritty.

Moses nails one more conversion on 1.2mill and were up 20-18 with 4 min to go with a full set we shut the game down and hang on imo. Instead its 18-all and the situation demanded 2 points when really it should have been us up by at least 2 or even better 6 points to go 8 in front.

 

[Gary Gutful]

We will rip them a new Titan hole and lay a cable in it.

 

[Pazza]

According to tct Russell was only a cat 2 and Ryles reckons he's good

 

[Joshuatheeel]

1. Papa
2. JAC
3. Kelly
4. Russell
5. Api
6. Volkman/Lorenzo
7. Moses
8. Paulo
9. Smith
10. Williams
11. Kk
12. Kelma
13. Walker (I would start Guymer)
14. TDS
15. Guymer
16. Sammy
17. JDB
18. Brown
19. Nanva

Injuries obviously really testing us, but also exciting times, with some rookies getting a chance.

 

[Twizzle]

Is Guymer a reserve back or a reserve forward ? I can't keep up.

To make it that little wee bit worse

is on 1.3M a season

Moses signs mammoth five-year, $6.5m Eels deal

The Eels have locked down their halfback and made him the highest-paid player in the game.

www.smh.com.au

Mitchell Moses has become the highest-paid player in the game after signing a new five-year contract with Parramatta.

The new contract, which also upgrades his current deal, will result in Mitchell earning $1.3 million per season until the end of 2029.

 

[Pazza]

Is Riley smith healthy?

 

[eel01s]

The eye test says he isn’t. But he is one determined bugger. We can’t afford to lose him.

 

[JokerEel]

Is Riley smith healthy?

Had Ice on a knee after the game..

Limped off at the start of extra time

I know TDS might also have an issue but surely it's time to give talen more time

 

[King-Gutho94]

Is Riley smith healthy?

Was with the trainer a lot yesterday behind play.

Something isn't right.

But he looks like he could have popped a calf in golden point pressuring the kicker.

 

[eels_fan]

Apparently Twidle left the stadium with his arm in a sling due to a AC joint injury - so add him to the list of possible injuries to miss next round too..

We are literally the walking wounded.

 

[PARRA_FAN]

Geez Russell came out of that clash pretty groggy, I'm surprised its a Cat 2

They will be plucking fans from the crowd to play next week at this rate.

It's not, it was a misreport. Definitely cat 1

 

[eels_fan]

In a world where Joash and Twidle dont pull up ok, i have no idea who we play at 1.

Would leave JAC as our last remaining first choice back, and all our backups also out aside from Kelly. You'd almost have to play him a 1 despite it not being his position, because Kelly has shown he cant even catch a straightforward non-contested kickoff.

JAC
Alameddine
Kelly
Guymer/Kelma/Walker (none of which are a good option)
Nanva
