Eels V Dogs 3-2-1

Posted by Blue Eel on April 19, 2026 at 5:58pm

3 Points - Mitch Moses Led the team around superbly, had a hand in everything, kicked for near 800m

2 Points - Will Penisni  Ran hard making 7 tackle busts

1 Point - Jack Williams  Topped the tackle count with only 1 miss. Played the full 80 minutes and was everywhere in defence.

Special mention Junior Paulo with 169 odd metres from 55 minutes with 64 post contact meters

 

Well done boys, a great win that not many saw coming including myself. Well done Ryles to get them back focused nd what a great way to honour our 86  champions at the game.

    3. Jnr Paulo

    2. Moses

    1. Penisini 

    Special mention Nava, he should keep his spot but the rules probably won't allow it, Russell to wing Kelly out.

      Agree on the ref. Put the whistle away and let them play

    Too hard today which is the way we like it !

     One thing for sure we wouldn't have won without Moses today full credit to him for changing his leadership style, despite the shit he has copped and difficulties he has faced!

    • Adam Magrath > macybrown April 19, 2026 at 7:19pm

      He was good wasn't he, I suspect Ryles had a quiet word with the leadership group this week

    Great result after the tough last round. I didn't see today's game, but happened to see team stats produced by NRL site. I don't wish to pour cold water on this win, however, it appears we only won penalty count and scoreboard. I'd be interested to hear anyone's thoughts about the importance of winning the majority of game stats for achieving a win on the scoreboard. What do you think was key today for securing the win?.
