I think we played well, hope we can continue the form....

and this news...

The Eels have capped off a memorable week by signing Glen Morrison for three years, according to an article in today's Sunday Telegraph.

"I'm rapt to join Parramatta. Bradford were very keen but there's a lot keeping me here," Morrison was quoted as sating.

"Apart from my family, I want to play 200 first-grade games and I still want to play Origin football, so hopefully Parra can give me more exposure.

"Brian (Smith) wants me on one side of the ruck and Nathan on the other, with both of us going for 80 minutes."

The story also said that the Eels had taken up its option on Eric Grothe for next year and remarkably Denis Fitzgerald said there could be more signings to come.

Defence was spot on and needs to continue every week. Our attack will follow if we work like that in defence.

To answer the question of the post

We were good and the chooks played ok - but our committed defence refused to budge!

For the record

There were 4 (that's four) Roosters backing up from Origin - all of whom played well

I think their best players were those who backed up plus Morley and Finch. The rest, who should have been more committed, didn't do their jobs.

Our defence was good and hopefully a pointer for the weeks to come.
