Eels V Manly 3-2-1

What a game, one of our best this year. I found it hard to leave Junior , Rylie Smith (55 tackles and pressure on kicker) and Samrani out. But they were huge.

My picks go to 

3 Points - Dean Hawkins - Stepped up  to lead the team around when others didn't.Kicking on point and 4 try assists. 635 kicking metres, 20 tackles and 2 line break assists.

2 Points- Iongi -  How good was he with speed, popping up on the edge causing havoc and his bomb difusuals were some of the best. Ran for 264 metres, 1 try, 70 post contact metres, zero missed tackles.

1 Point - Williams - what a workhorse, played 73minutes in the middle, 195m with 18 hitups, 79 post contact metres, 32 tackles.

    • I agree with BEM 

      • yeah Walker completely changes our potential to score when he is on.Very underated in our attack, we look so good when he is ball playing in the middle instead of Hopgood.

        I loved how the panel after the game were actually talking about Parra playing finals footy if they continue to play like that.

        This old man just got excited again about footy.

  • Whole forward pack a stand out for me, even matto Kelma gave it a good crack, love to see it 

  • 3. Hawkins.

    2. Paulo

    1. Williams

  • 3 - Walker

    2 - Hawkins

    1- Rest of the team

    Hard to leave out paulo, kautoga, smith and walker.

  • Dylan walker outstanding tonight

    • Agree with this also. Turned our whole season around, X factor player . We need to find 3 more players just like him ( that know how to win ) 

      • With Walker able to create space outside with his work in the middle, If we can get our centres in a head space to understand how to set up their wingers. All of a sudden our backline is top 4ish.

"Both are extended til 2027. Fletcher seems to be really impressing in pre-season, similar to what Smith did last year. Not saying he gets near FG but he could play Cup earlier than expected maybe."
