Emotion aside. Where do we go wrong?

I'm so pissed. I'm convinced I'm destined to never see the Eels win a premiership.  

But emotion aside,  where do we fuck up? Happens every year and we never fix it.

In my mind it's a psychological thing. I believe we have a decent team but we are never ready against the lower teams. We never seem prepared. Our attitude sucks. The Storm and Penrith are ready every bloody week.

The attitude summed up by Moses' lacklustre effort after crossing the line. Lazy fuck.

I know there is a lot of anger. It's easy to throw a tantrum, God knows my blood is boiling.

But take a deep breath. Looking for constructive comments.

  • NFI EAM sorry mate 

  • What can you say? It's not just because we don't have respect for lower ranked sides and that we think it'll be a walk over, it's so so much more. 

    • It is an attitude thing mate how else do you explain the tigers game and today's game 

      • Definitely attitude.

        I don't see us ever winning the comp with BA but he's also not the one stepping onto the field. A little bit of adversity and the whole team folds. No on field leaders. No pride.

  • Unfortunately no premiership anytime soon.

  • Lol, welcome to the party EAM, good to see youve finally come round and woken up to what weve been telling you for years.

    How to change it, stop blindly defending the club, demand more from the players and coach, every year.

    Get some seige mentality going in the club, get these players fee fees hurt and get them to manufacture some pride in themselves.

    If all eels fans do this online and around the club, it will create a seige mentality.

    Weve seen it before, youre right, its a mental thing, the player and coach are too soft, they need to be playing for something because the NRL trophey just isnt enough for them.

    They all need to start feeling the hurt, they need something top unify them, this teams missing togetherness, we arnt a team.

    • Ha, thank you for the party welcoming. Where do you keep the hard spirits? 

      Beyond the coaching stuff,  is their such thing as mentality coach to train players mental strength? Pure psychological stuff not physical.  

      Again, I believe we have a top 4 team. Our mentality is out weakness and every team knows it.

      Where did you say the alcohol is?

       

  • We have no game plan B and yes it's an attitude thing. 

  • Coaching staff, we have a team that knows how to play footy what we need is a Wayne Bennett to come in and get them pumped week in week out. I think BA is a great assistant coach but we need a man manager as a head coach. With so many coaching jobs available I feel like we are going to lose a good coaching opportunity like Cameron Ciraldo. I have been a big advocate for BA but after that performance season is over, we cannot win a premiership playing against a wooden spoon side like that. 30 fucking points and was never a contest. Does anybody know the definition of insanity?

  • I honestly think we need more than a squad purge every few years.

    The only constant over the last 9 years is, yep you it guessed it, the coach.

    BA is the only constant over these 9 years and he's the only thing we have not changed - IMO, he's got to go before we see any real potential improvement. Even if it means we slide a bit I think the coaching ranks need a massive shake up. It will do the players and fans good to see and hear a different voice.
