  I seen the frustration on Burt as well. Couldnt believe he didnt pass, burt's speed and elusivness would have netted points. Lucky the game wasn't on the line...

  Jono Wright is the worst player i've seen in an eels jersey in years. even worse than the Keatings.

  Yeh, Burt's face and body language indicate he is not a happy chap out there.. It's been ongoing for a while now, he almost looks like a spoilt child who doesn't get what he wants.
  
  I for one am really gettin annoyed with him, it's like he stays there in the wing with his arms on his hips waiting to be spoon fed...
  
  Burt, you're a grown man, get your shit together please!! You're supposed to be a senior player who others are supposed look up to, and get motivation from.
  
  I can't blame Wright for not passing it to him anyway. Jono would probably drop the ball or fumble it while attempting the pass. While he makes the run in my head Im just thinking 'please just hold it, and don't drop it or try anything silly'
  
  Sure if he makes the pass they score, but with Wright, theres a good chance the pass would go straight to the ground..

  I don't agree that Luke was like a spoilt child when Jono didn't pass to him, Luke is a team player and he knew how important games are at the tail end of the comp and he wants parra to reach the 8 and he has the ability to help get us there so I can understand him being pissed off, as for him getting off his but and go looking for the ball he did do that in the second half on several occasions because he realized that he was not going to see the ball on the wing and did put a nice grubber through that had to be defused by the cowboys and got us another six tackles. Jono did make a few mistakes early in the game and like others have written myself and others supporters seated around me were all saying don't drop it whenever he got the ball as the game progressed. As for Inu he has to give some thought to the things he does, at one stage he caught the ball in our danger zone and instead of taking the tackle he tried to pass the ball and stuffed it up and gave the ball back to the cows in good position.

    I have seen Burt in the last few weeks/months showing anger at Tahu, Jono, Jarryd and others, for either not passing or dropping the ball.
    
    He gets angry, gives them a dirty look, and walks his little toosh back to the defence line.
    
    To me, I see that as spoilt, negative, lack of respect ..etc etc.
    
    Now you may see it a different way, but to me it just shows that he is not a team player and has no respect to his fellow team mates.. Everyone else would support the player, give them a little tap or rub of the hair and tell them it's all good.
    
    How does having a hissy fit help the team get confidence? Or get the team back on track? I wouldn't be happy with all these errors and the fact that we aren't winning, but you don't kick your team mates while they are down already..
    
    Support is what is needed.

  I reckon worse, at least Cariage looked like he wanted to be a team player!
