Are our Eels relentless enough to win it. l.

  1.  In my years of watching footy the relentless teams with defensive intensity ,the continual roll of a wave in attack for the full 80 minutes are generally the overall winners of competitions. Week in week out it has to be produced. The grunt work  is necessary  to unleash the stars.  In your face defence for 80, zip and run from dummy half. Everybody backing up a half break. Our great Eels sides had it,  the Storm and Roosters have shown it the last 20 years . We have the players ,we have the coaching staff , do we have the desire to get it done.

        • Seth I agree based on semi against Penrith but we have lost some key players 

          I hope you are right I really do- but I have never felt confident with BA leading us to the prize - if we had kept the roster we had and added these new coaching staff I might feel more confident 

           

          • The roster isn't really changing until 2023 

            • No Will Smith, Carlo will have no one to flick her bean.

              • Losing Will Smith would've really made the bookies reevaluate our premiership odds this year.  I think we shortened by $3 . The Titans blew out to $25

          • only lost will.....in all fairness we dont lose much, if anything, with him going.

    • Snake, I think in the semi against Penrith we showed our coaches and team were good enough to win. We got dead set dudded . Old Maya saying, in 22 ,big Eel become King.

       

  • Almost always, the team that is the best team all year wins the comp. Not necessarily the minor premier but usually close to it. We need to be the best team in the comp, that's the goal. Not try and jag a comp by going on a late season run. Be the best, all year!

    • Beautifull rhetoric Mutt's.....why can't we be the best?

"Neither Kelly or JAC were playing yesterday. That's why Tago started. I didn't mind Alameddine. He did good ruck work and when given some room he seemed fast enough to take advantage of it."
