Never understood how media hacks are considered experts.

Rothfield has the Sharks in 9th....

 

[hineyrulz]

Never understood how media hacks are considered experts.

Most of them wouldn’t know if a dog was up them. Take Buzz for example he’s a piss sozzled decrepit old merkin with idea no whatsoever.

 

[Incorrect]

Fatima loves the Eels!!!

Her prediction gives me a Fatima pants...

 

[T.S Quint]

Surprised Crawley didn’t have the Raiders finishing first.

 

[JokerEel]

Never understood how media hacks are considered experts.

These are the same media hacks that talked up Schuster and got him a 800k contract..

 

[TheRam]

It’s crazy how much better teams look against weak opposition!

Yep, look at Cronulla ffs!

 

[The Predictor]

Russell goes ok, but I fear his development will be twarted if BA parachutes Waqa back into the backline at any time in the rest of the season.

Surely not….

 

[hineyrulz]

Surprised Crawley didn’t have the Raiders finishing first.

He only finishes first with ricky.

 

[hineyrulz]

These are the same media hacks that talked up Schuster and got him a 800k contract..

They got Hook another job and then an extension, now they are saying let poor Benny Hunt go lol.

I think those are pretty realistic for the Eels finishing position, except for Fatima who has us in 3rd (and must be a fan?).

 

[the phantom menace]

Why would he? He got dropped for being consistently shit and then got injured first game in Nathan’s team.

I think BA was quoted saying he was looking forward to Waqa's return from injury... although I could just be confused with one of Pou's bullshit contrary discussion point posts?

 

[the phantom menace]

Plenty of merkins enjoy my posts, so if you’re not one of them you know what to do.

Yep... I'll keep pointing out your shit ones

 

[lingard]

I enjoyed this one.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Yep... I'll keep pointing out your shit ones

It'll certainly get your post count up.

 

[Noise]

I think he's doing a great job.

Ran for 137 metres last week, with 34 post-contact metres.

The week before, 101m, and 34m.

The week before that, 128m, and 28m.

Those numbers are decent but hardly great. Like I said he’s been adequate. I don’t think his line break, tackle busts or try scoring numbers are what you would consider great either.

 

[Twizzle]

well Fatima likes us

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Those numbers are decent but hardly great. Like I said he’s been adequate. I don’t think his line break, tackle busts or try scoring numbers are what you would consider great either.

His try scoring record is very good. Not necessarily this year but for his whole career.

FFS, small sample size

 

[Eelementary]

Considering that two months ago, he was unable to catch a bomb, his ability to sniff out a try, and make 100m a game, is pretty great, imo.
