Jakob Arthur: Worst Case Scenario

The case for keeping Jakob on the bench is that, should Mitchell Moses suffer an injury or concussion, we would not have adequate cover for the halfback role.

The outcome of this hypothetical situation appears to have escaped our industrious coach but

Can Moses win the Dally M tonite?

Would cap of a great week for Mitchell Moses if he can win the Dally M tonight. Would become the fourth eel to win the award.

Personally, winning the Dally M would see him stay an eel me thinks

Other main contenders are Ben Hunt (who was leading when

The Line In The Sand: Now Or Never

 Wow. Unforgettable. The moment we knew we were into the grand final after a 13-year wait. I'm still in shock.

And in one week, we face off against the Panthers, the competition's best team over the last few years.

Things often seem clearer in hinds

Eels vs Cowboys 3, 2, 1. Hit & Run Preliminary Finals Edition

I can't believe it! We're into the Grand Final! Unbelievable defence. By the stats the Cowboys were the better team but we hung in took our chances. Lost for words! Absolute true grit! Massive congrats to the players and the coaching staff.

We May have the Almighty on our Side Afterall !!!

I have watched Roosters beat the shit out of Souths and bring themselves undone, like wise Sharks had Cows covered and blew that, the difference of how their supporters must feel with leading one minute before fulltime against the cows and sitting on

The Promised Land

The monkey was big, it was bad and it had taken up residence for nearly four years, but the Eels not only shook it off on Friday night, they pummelled it into oblivion as they ran away with a 40-4 week two finals triumph over the Canberra Raiders.

Eels vs Raiders 3, 2, 1. Special Finals Edition

Rise up guys we're off to the Prelim! Outstanding team performance; we shut the Raiders out early and did not let up. Big guns stood up tonight, the most in sync I think this year. Congrats to the players and the coaching staff, well done!

IF Moses is out and I do not think he will be?

What no one really wants to talk about is who would replace him.....we all know who it would be.....but it shouldn't.

My expectations are he will play, my fear is that JA will be on the bench as a standby!

I can't imagine what justification BA would us

SAD TO SEE

All the things said 50% completion rate in the second half and poor ball control.we could not win it, change that equation and send the guys to the beach to catch high balls and we are competitive against them in a GF, if we get there.

We went with th

Finals Week 1 v Panthers: No Regrets

And so it begins. "Squeaky Bum Time", as the legendary coach Sir Alex Ferguson called it.

The Eels late-season renaissance has many fans dreaming of the seemingly impossible. But the Panthers are the best team in the competition and armed with the r

Taylan May Suspended But Not Really

The NRL has cheapened its self further with a disgraceful decision to suspend May for two games, in 2023!!!

This means he is free to play in the finals this year!

The NRL has lost its marbles. The reasoning given is they now believe that a finals game

Taylah May suspended for 2 games

But allowed to postpone suspension to after finals - free to play

Taylan May

Surely this guy gets suspended.  I'm shocked the NRL saw the video and though it was OK to let him play all year before giving him a suspension.  It was straight out assault, and he should be missing game time.

NSW Cup or Reserve Grade Blues.....We have to do better as a development club!

This was inspired by reading about our second grade performance in the elimination semi final yesterday. It was mentioned that the captain coach idea was a failed experiment.

I don't think the player coach was an experiment as much as a convenience wi

SIVO SIVO SIVO

I owe an apology blog to Maika Sivo.

I honestly thought he was gone last season before his ACL injury.

My view was that he got "weights happy" through Covid and and lost his pace and cordination.

His comeback was so so after the ACL but I still thought

A very interesting blog re team playing styles. The best Rugby League article I've read in years

Two difficult decisions for BA

1. Whether to rest players next week. 2. Whether to play JA in the finals

1. As Mutts has pointed out 4th is a good run this year (win or lose the first finals match) and home games are important. Regardless I think we need to rest players. We cannot
