Team v dragons

[I'm a loser baby...]

Lost the last four at home, eh? Hmmm. Still, I fancy our chances more at home than away. I reckon it's about 50/50. (Depending muchly on how good this Nelson is)

Game day! Excited to pull on the blue and gold tonight #blueandgold #eels https://instagram.com/p/4alfeOzPn5/

go you good thing

BA said that they only intended to use Cody Nelson for 25m only he stood up. Assume they were going to use Seffa.

In the end Cody gave good service and 54 tackles. He shut up a few critics here BTW. Cody is an NRL player.

It would take Sef 3 games to make 54 tackles, Nelson could work out to be a good no 14 for us when Peats is back.

Hopefully he's top 25, otherwise we might be unable to pick him when players come back ?

 

[Twizzle]

f**k, not that again

i'd bet my left nut he's not top 25

I thought that many months ago (possibly before season started), one of the blokes with apparent inside info suggested that Nelson was at the bottom end of the Top 25. I'll see if I can find it.

Was very impressed with him. Tough in the middle. Did some great work in the middle of the ruck. For only having played 9 games he did well.

 

[Eelementary]

Nelson was great imo.

 

[yy_cheng]

Not only that he was not noticeable which is really good.

 

[Bigfella]

He was great for a makeshift dummy half.

If Nelson was Top 25, surely we would have been instructed to play him well before last night.

I don't think he has been available all year. Was injured at some point I thought.


But I could be confusing my recollection of what was said months ago.

 

[strider]

he played great last night but even if he was top 25 i doubt he would have been high in the pecking order for his position (backrow - in the middle)

 

[Chipmunk]

Well I'm sure you'll all mount a case for why he should be Top 25, but at the end of the day, under the current nontransparent NRL rules we don't really know.
