Damn how are the Eels doing so poorly?

Dead set if I saw the following a few years back I would expect a top-4 finish:
- Hayne
- Jennings
- French
- Gutherson
- Norman
- Moses
- Mannah

PS - Takairangi, Evans and Jennings there. Come at me boys!!!

Rubbish team, but arguably one of the best backlines in the comp if they can suddenly find some form? I'm kinda scared that they will magically find form and a 95%+ completion rate against us.

It's quite incredible that in the last month, all sides we have played have had a completion rate of over 90% ....we seem to play opposition teams into form.

Parra have a few ball players in their team,surely that percentage will drop this week lol

[Mickie Lane]

The Roosters should try & get Josh Hoffman on the cheap for next year.
If I was Robbo I would rest JWH, SST, Cordner, Friend, Cronk & Fergusson.

All teams want to complete, it's just incredibly effective against the Roosters and incentivising for other teams given;

1. our error rate
2. our penalties given away and
3. the penalties we should get but never receive.

[Nathan Aboud]

Ageing forward pack by the eels.... I can see Cordner and Radley out running their forwards and also causing heavy impact on defense. I think we may need to send high bombs towards George Jennings wing and towards French because they both aren't real safe under the high ball.

Don’t you want a home semi Mickie? Screw Homebush.

Exactly - The minor premiership is as good as gone (did you cash in DBW?). But a home semi at Allianz; that's worth fighting for. Happy to take a 1 point win or obviously more.

The rest comes in a fortnight.

I think we might put a margin on Parra this weekend.

If there is a budding stats person out there, it would be interesting to know since JWH has come to the chooks what has our winning percentage been with and without JWH in the team and the overall winning percentage as a whole.

[mattyh]

i hope we absolutley smack this team ...the reason they re so poor is that there players are flighty, that list of parra players named above can be brilliant , but many of them can be below average on any given day to ....except gutho

I cashed out 13k. The value was at 21k before the Raiders game and they were coming off 5 loses so I would of been stupid to not at least let it go for that game.. the boys really let me down on that one hahah
