We Will Beat Penrith

[Chipmunk]

I love Hayne but it worries me that 1 player has so much impact on our team.

I think the team should now realistically be just known as the Hayne Planes and revert back to the usual inept Parramatta Eels when he doesn't take the field

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Mansour and peachey both made over 250m

We only completed 59% of our sets and only had 41% of the ball.

Lucky they only got 38 points with stats like that

 

[Chipmunk]

Well we are going to be without Lussick and possibly Allgood so Fui may come back in

I dare say Mossop will be given this week in NSW Cup and get a call up for Lussick. I think Fui is a better option than Allgood in any case.

 

[Chipmunk]

f**k you are right! Not only that but we will have to rest them both the week after origin

We do play Melbourne on a Sunday after the next Origin game. Who knows who they will have fit by then, but you would think Hayne and probbaly Hoppa will be right to play by the Sunday

 

[Pazza]

Justin Hunt, The stats so far:

8 runs
3 tackles,
2 missed tackles
5 errors
1 penalty conceded

Wish someone had the uncontested kick stats

Worst display I've seen in an eels jersey since Jason Moodie in the 2001 GF!

 

[bartman]

With Hoppa as the 18th man for the last Origin and Josh Morris now out for 8 weeks I dare say this isnt going to be a viable option

Oh no!

What's our backline going to look like in those weeks, seeing as Hunt and Toutai can't seriously be picked again...?

1. Sio
2. Morgan
3. Tonga (if recovered)
4. Loko (if recovered)
5. Semi

1. Sio

4. Loko (if recovered)

It would be a good game if billy, cam and cronk are out tigether with Hayne and Hoppa

 

[Parraren]

Ken Edwards back into the side next week also

 

[Chipmunk]

1. Sio
2. Morgan
3. Tonga (if recovered)
4. Loko (if recovered)
5. Semi

I would go with:

1. Norman
2. Sio
3. Morgan
4. Tonga
5. Radradra
6. Kelly
7. Sandow

That's 3 hammerings out of 12 games so far this year. Not to dwell on the negative aspect of the 2014 Eels but their erratic performances don't auger well as far as a solid title contender is concerned. Anything above 10th is a considerable improvement.

Yeah, that works. Basically Kelly > Hunt in terms of a first grade back up.

As bad as the performance was, I reckon we are going better then most would have expected at the beginning of the year

Title Contender??? Are you on drugs???

 

[Joshuatheeel]

1. Norman

5. Radradra
6. Kelly
7. Sandow

I wouldn't put Norman there he is to slow, Sio would be my pick. Yeah he aren't the greatest but would do a lot better then hunt . Vai to wing.

 

[Noise]

Yep least amount of disruption

Good to have a guy who under studied Inglis as our back up instead of Mullaney. If Jake was still here id be very worried

Somehow he made Mullaney look half decent

Hunt is pretty solid under the high ball, I can't remember him dropping any this year. I reckon now that I've said that he'll drop 2 bombs at least haha.

haha yep you picked it

 

[bartman]

It would be a good game if billy, cam and cronk are out tigether with Hayne and Hoppa

No 20,000 sellout with those five ruled out of the match.

No.....but I'm thinking about it.

Toutai is not a first grade player, Kelly is.

Sio is a winger at best. You need a competent player who can pass the ball at Fullback. That's not Ken Sio.

I think Norman at 1 and Kelly at 6 is the most 'compatibale' solution for the way we play when Hayne is playing.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

It will help us in future games. Too bad there will a lot out there saying we are a shit team without Hayne. Eels didn't show up and played poorly. Would we have won if Hayne was playing?

Probably not but we would have had a better attitude and definitely would have conceded less and scored more.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Gower also has to play in the middle

With Lussick and Allgood both out I'm sure he will.

8. Mannah
10. Mossop/Gower

13. Paulo/Terepo

16. Paulo
17. Gower/Mossop
