"I don't think the Eels know who they want for the 6 jersey, they went after Galvin and missed, then wanted Joash to play 6, then went after Pezet and missed and took him for a 1 year deal to develop our own, now it looks like they are going back on…"
"I don't see what the point is here if we are looking at the mentioned is Talataina not who we think he is as CHT makes more sense if you want a half to play next to Moses.Metcalfe is a 7 not a 6 and he's defense is questionable.He makes more sense…"
"Eels95, even though he's not a great Hooker he can play it somewhat if desperate. Would rather that than someone like Hudson or Coinakis when nowhere near ready. Edwards at Hooker if needed is ok as he can defend ok as well and has 57 NRL games."
"I hope he goes well for us and we need players but I hope this is just the start and some big names are coming we desperately need at least 2 elite signings for next year "

It doesn't mean nothing.
It depends who you ask.
double negative there Brett
Well done BA. A testament to perseverance
Only taken 8 years.
Just imagine how many he can rack up if we resign him.
To put this in perspective, only four other coaches have coached the Eels for more than 100 games:
Brian Smith, John Monie, Vic Hey and Terry Fearnley.
Of that group, only Brian Smith passed 100 victories as coach. So one more win and BA becomes just the second coach in the club's history to pass 100 wins. He'll also become just the second Eels coach to pass 200 games when he gets to that mark at the end of the season.
Nothing on the unwanted records that he also holds, Super?
"Arthur also set an unwanted coaching record, becoming the first head coach in 112 seasons of the game to coach a side for seven consecutive years and fail to make at least one preliminary final"
Plenty of clubs have failed to make the preliminary final for longer than that, and the worst clubs (like the Tigers) think the solution is sacking coaches. How has that worked out for them? I'm glad we have persisted with Arthur. As his win rate improves so will his finals win rate.
Possibly in under 36 years. Here's hoping. We can't lose our hope.
