          • 1) Ryles appears to have NO idea! I mean signing Pezet, Kelly clearly shows what kind of ideas he has! Agreeing to allow Lomax to walk and then not working to get him back after R360 fell through has some question marks around it. Playing Walker in the run on side again in a poor option amongst other things

            2) Penrith get a lot of favouritism from referees as did the Storm for years. Penrith cheat and get away with it! I'm not denying they're a good side but they're not that great! The Dragons in the 60's Eels and Dogs in the 80's and Roosters in the 70's were far better and they had more to contend with

  • We have been poor in every game we are struggling to put together a 19 man squad next week.

    We are cooked and Pezet is useless 

    • Pezet, Kelly and most of the team are useless as is Ryles

  • 11th-14th I reckon. Happy to be wrong.

  • 3 season ending injures and like 7 others long term.idk anymore 

  • GC is a must win, Wests wasn't but GC is. They can still beat a team but they barely got through Saints for a win at home. At least we get them in a week where we have to wait for Russell to return to strengthen our backline.

    Both Centres back for the Dogs is big. If we can get 3 out of 6 coming up: GC (H), Dogs (H), Manly (A), Warriors (H), NQ (A) and Melbourne (H* MR) we could alright. 

    If we make the 8 it would be scraping in. This squad needs finals for that momentum into 2027, but also our R&R now are into a situation where they are forced to act to assist with losing Hopgood, Doorey and Simonsson for the year.

    • Every game is a must win! Can't see Eels beating Titans they're a different team under Holbrook 

      • I agree that every game is but some more than others. But yeah Titans were a different team under Holbrook.....in 2023. He was then sacked and Des got the job the following year. Hannay is now the coach and they are 1-4, scraping a win at home v Saints. Not saying that means they are easy beats, we still need to be on.

        But if you are to counter, get your information straight before hand to save the hassel of embarrassment. 

        • I'm not embarrassed are you? Simple error! Everyone makes them unless your Penrith of course. Hannay I meant not Holbrook who is doing a super job at Newcastle

    • No good scrapping into the 8 to be rolled out week 1 what's the point? Eels won't make the 8
