Sucks ay, we were premiership favourites after being in a GF last year, and we will finish in the bottom four of 16 teams.
We are a joke.
But, will look forward to next season, and will stick by the players; we know, and they know, that they can do it.
I hope so
25 years since we last won
30 years since we first won
10 years since our record breaking shoulda won season
If this cycle is to continue it will be 5 years till we can at least hope for another shot :crazy:

Wow, great positive post :) Thanks mate, I agree with everything you said.

Sister and in-laws are big eels fans.

Controversy reigns supreme, but at the end of the day, all unite to support the club and the team.

Plus Ive met a couple of your players ...and in that discussion... I found them to be pretty humble & nice people.

I can't believe I was confident going into the game ... I bet my Bunnies-supporter wife on the result. I got to change every dirty nappy this weekend. Hahaha.

It was a thoroughly demoralising game.

Someone should have told the players that truly turning up for just one game, against the cheaters that beat them last year in the GF, didn't actually win them a GF (moral or otherwise). It would have nice to see that team play a bit more this season.

I thought it was ludicrous that we were favourites this year anyway.

Classic Parra.... Take us to the top in 2009 to set us up for the biggest fall possible in 2010. When was the last time we missed the 8?

Now I will go on to further punish myself by following the closest thing to Parra, St George through the finals series

The worst part is that now Souths have a chance (yes a very slim one) of making the 8! To play in the manner we did suggest there are some issues that need to be addressed prior to 2011.

It was effectively a top 9 this year with the storm ruled out. And we still didn't come close. Who would have thought.

What a horrible aftertaste.
I haven't had something this bitter ever since the dog pissed on my brand new PC.

Sadly, I don't think it's getting better very soon.

Imo we've pinned too much (salary and on-field initiative) on Hayne, and he simply doesn't deliver consistently enough. Hohaia was for Warriors what Hayne should have been for us this year...

Yeah, that is looking like a $250K failure move too. For another hooker next year at best.

It sure has been a long 2010 campaign. We started off the year really slowly, and then finished it off horrendously.

We lost all our last 6 games, bar the Broncos game. FFS.

We won a measly 3/10 games at Parra stadium. WTF.


Gonna be a long off season.

That's the good part if they can knock MANLY out of the 8 !!!

It is about time we asked why the team continually plays with no structure and don't look as fit or body hardened as almost every other side.

We winged it last year, not sure what structure DA had then, even he said he was not sure.

Look he is a Parra man, but it is time we took a good hard look at his coaching, he may be a nice bloke with the players, but I am not convinced he is aiming up.

we need to stop blaming everyone but the coaching staff, the board don't go on the field, our best player can't do it all. When did we ever look like threatening with a set move....

We have a hopeless 7 and an indifferent 9, they touch the ball most opften, if the coach was cognisant of their shortcomings then we should at least have some basic set moves, WE DON"T HAVE ANY.....DA has a fair bit to answer for, and the media continually let him off the hook and want to blame others. We have no friggin game plan and even blind freddy can tell you that. Mateo has not been fit all year, Fui is also underdone, what a waste of a year.
