SMITH NAMES SEVENS SQUAD - 20/01/04

Steve has been given a run.....

Nice to see Smith pick a 1st string side for the Sevens, as for the selection of Peek , good to see, a good mobile forward with a bit of speed to him and can get the offload away

 

[ParraMatt]

great team that we've picked, good to see smith selecting a first string side not like some of the other teams.

did we pick them did we? :roll:

 

[Freak]

I would say Smith has considered the 2 new rules when picking the side.
4 tackles per set and extra point for scoring under the sticks.

I like the new rules as they reward fitness and endurance and of course speed.

I see people now chasing runaways to force them wide and away from the post.

 

[wittyfan]

No Witty.

 

[The Worm]

I'm glad they haven't picked a team of reggies like a few of the other teams have.

 

[JessEel]

Steve has been given a run.....

REALLY??!!
and Deano is in the side, unless he's a reserve or something, i saw him get a jersey!! :?: :shock:

 

[The Colonel]

They might be psyching out the opposition and you've gone and given away Brian's big secret Jess....... :roll: .... good one!

 

[JessEel]

but it was like, PUBLIC! im sorry, but dammit, i saw him get the jersey!!! :lol:


Go Ronnie Prince tho, he'll be my player of the tournament i reckon, what an absolute legend that guy is!!

[Redback71]

i wonder how much will be shown on tv.
the guide has nothing on saturday dont know how much if any will be televised on sunday.
does anyone know and what about cable.

 

[Suitman]

Of all the NRL squads named so far, that is by far the strongest I have seen.
Great to see the mighty Eels taking this seriously.

Suity

 

[JessEel]

last year fox showed highlights of the day, closer highlights or the two qualifying finals and then the whole GrandFinal. that was it, dunno bought this year

 

[Rylesy]

I think they are only highlights, plus the final game but it is delayed........ I do not know how much of this is true.

Eels have got the best team I think.... They deserve to win the $100,000 8)

 

[half]

oh we'll win it fo sho. i'd put my house on it if i had one

it's great having many former eels on other teams... it will make it easy when choosing who to support for the other games
