Let's face it, we're up against it tonight in Townsville!
The Cows have won 5 on the trot and have named an unchanged lineup. Sivo and more importantly, RCG are out with Blake and Ogden to replace them. It's an opportunity for Blake to make a statement and push for a regular first grade spot.
If the Eels are any chance this year it's games like this that they need to win having a difficult run home towards the finals. Our forwards need to dominate, or we lose imo. Hopefully it's a decent game and it's a pretty crucial one for the Eels. Looking forward to this one!
So, who wins and by what margin?
MOM?
GO YOU EELS!!!

I could be wrong, but heard Dunster is replacing Sivo unless there has been another team-list update?

Thx for the game day blog, Grunta.
The Parra site lists Dunster replacing Sivo, not Blake. Not sure BA plays ducks and drakes with selections?!
Dunster was unable to keep up with any line breaks, by his own team or the opposition, last he played, so whether it is Blake unable to catch kick or Dunster unable to run winger-speed, the Eels would have issues on the wing regardless.
All good mate
Yes, it will be interesting to see who actually replaces Sivo Eels site it's Dunster, NRL.com it's Blake..
I think I'd prefer Waqa to get the gig and see how he goes.
BA said Dunster
Where are you seeing this? I look on both sites and it hasn't been update, Sivo still there.
Unless it's on laptop, as I look on my phone.

Obvously to be confirmed when final teams named so could change but this is where it was mentioned.
Our goose is cooked.

I love your optimism
It's not a case of optimism or pessimism. It's the reality that the Cowboys are in a far better position to win this and win it well.
