Listening to ABC Grandstand interview Dylan Edwards, asked him who he thought the premiership dangers are and mentioned Cows, Roosters and Storm... No love for the only team they've lost to.... Mind games or they genuinely don't rate us I wonder....
Lets be honest we don't deserve to be rated until we can play 3-4 games straight with any consistency.

This team has proven it hasn't got it in them unfortunately.

Would be a huge underachievement if we didn’t make the top 4.

I don't see it happening.

We have Panthers and Storm. Storm last game may help us if they rest players.
Brisbane twice could go either way
Souths again
Manly away
Dogs

I feel we win against Tigers,Warriors,Dogs. Once against Brisbane and Storm if they rest a heap.
But a shock loss to the Tigers could ruin us.

At this stage I have no doubt we’ll beat the tigers next week, and then lose to the warriors at Commbank when everyone will expect us to flog them

The NRL Tackle: Parramatta Eels coach Brad Arthur under fire after South Sydney defeat

After yet another mystifyingly poor performance from his Eels, it’s coming to a point where Brad Arthur needs to justify he’s the man to end Parramatta’s epic premiership drought.

Lost in the celebration of Latrell Mitchell’s stunning return for South Sydney was the fact this was another serious setback for Parramatta’s premiership campaign.
And Brad Arthur just can’t continue to escape scrutiny for these ridiculously inconsistent performances that are tearing apart the Eels’ best chance to win a title in more than a decade.

We’ve seen over the weekend how Justin Holbrook is the latest NRL coach fighting to save his job with Gold Coast on the bottom of the ladder and going backwards fast.

But for different reasons Arthur’s position is also coming to that point where he needs to justify that he can be the man who can lead this club to that long awaited premiership.

And it’s no good having a team capable of beating heavyweights Penrith and Melbourne when they can’t back it up against the Bulldogs and Wests Tigers, or a Souths team that was admittedly pumped by Latrell’s return but nevertheless humiliated in their most recent game against St George Illawarra.

You also can’t ignore this is Arthur’s ninth season and Parra are yet to make it past week two of the finals on his watch.

Arthur said after the game that effort wasn’t the issue against Souths.

But how does he say that when in the next breath he pretty much blamed the performance on a lack of effort from certain individuals, saying “on different weeks we’ve got different blokes owning their jobs”.

The fact is it is all just a cop out, because it was obvious to all from the opening exchanges that the Eels just didn’t turn up with the right attitude – and it has been their ongoing issue all season.

But just like the players Arthur needs to take accountability for his part because it is a coach’s job to get them ready to play.
