Can’t afford 16 man squad in GF

Go the mighty eels ( parra power ) all the way to GF . it was obvious BA could not risk JA last night which beggers belief why he was there ( stop the excuses ) we had a 16 courages mighty eels squad,  BA luck will run out , we can't afford 16 man squad in GF. JA does not make any sense whatsoever . For all us suffering fans for 36 years , BA use commonsense not emotion

  • Great thread , looking forward to the next instalment . 

  • wow an original post. You should add that the Cows did vertually the same thing last night. Fidow got the last 3 minutes - Cohen Hess 14 minutes.. Perhaps Payten should have used Common Sense hey.

     

    Why not show a small token of respect for the coach that has us playing in a grandfinal doing it his way. So far weve never won a game let alone a  grandfinal with you in charge. Why not use commonsense ME not emotion.

    • That's why cows lost last night , your luck runs out . On the big stage GF , do you really want to go in with 16 men instead of 17. Defence wins you a comp , with 16 it makes it much harder . Not being critical , just like every fan desperate to win the comp & JA makes no sense

    • It's a dream come true we are in the GF & must win . No prize for being the bridesmaid especially after 36 year drought . We don't want another Brian Smith that never delivered a GF . BA great effort , our squad will dismantle after 2022 , this is our time, we may not be here in years to come  . Go you mighty eels . 

    • Well stop whinging then brissy, only a few days to go as an eels fan, try and enjoy it.

      • Hahaha 

    • Brissy, what happened to the Dolphins today in the qld cup GF?

      Massive choke lol, hope you havnt jinxed the dolphins?

  • Seriously BA has done it his way and has taken this team, his team/ our team to the grandfinal. He can play who ever he wants in my opinion, he has earnt that right and i even think his earnt the right for at least a token amount of respect from supporters , at least for a week from some anyway.

    Not my choice his bench but this week ill support his decisions. 

  • Whilst I'd not have JA it's becoming common to have a unused bench player baisicly a backs cover.

    The plus is if that 17th man doesn't play then the 3 remains can get rotated more. 

    If we play opiciac then Baily should come in as that backs cover

  • penrith up by 14 with 8m to go and still Salmon off the bench hasnt seen any game time either. Is Cleary using common sense.
