Game day blog - Eels vs Sea Eagles

Well, this game will be bigger than a bullocks scrotum and more intriguing than a end of season chat between Nick Politis and Tedesco.

The Eels and Sea Eagles are two of the form teams of the premiership and both will be up for this one. After taking a quick look at the silvertails forum, it's evident that the hate has never been stronger. This is one of those games I check for when the draw is released, it should be huge.

Enough has been said about Turbo and Saab's combination and how dangerous it is, but little has been written about Schuster. Although named in the second row he will almost certainly fill in at 6 at times with Foran out. He is so dangerous running at the line. The Eels will need to contain him and reduce the opportunities for their halves to get the ball to Turbo.

Moses vs DCE should be a doozy, but we should be too strong up the middle. It's the fringes where Manly could possibly carve us up. Saab can run faster than Brett Stewart outside a high school.

It will be a big afternoon out at Wankbest stadium. Will some of their fans travel out to the golden west? Our fans should get us home.

So, who wins and by what margin?

MOM?

Sin bins?

GO YOU EELS!!!

  • I've travelled from Melbourne this week and it's my first game at Bankwest. By laws of not letting me down, we should take the win.

    • Good luck at the game Ryan . I hope you have not put a hoodoo on us LOL . Did you bring the Melbourne bad weather down with you ?

      • I have a feeling as soon as I step foot in the stadium the heavens will open up! Sorry in advance!! 

  • Eels by 10. Late try to Sivo to seal it.

  • I saw a hilarious comment from a Manly supporter that if both teams played to their best then they would easily win. Would love to know where that bloke's been getting his drugs.

    • I did see that 2, and there were mentions of Eels supporters being feral etc. Some of the comments on that site (Silvertails) are more indicative of feral species rather than anything you'd find on here! I remember being at the Eels Vs Moanly game in rd 2 2010 when the Eels were down 20 nil and some of the comments from their supporters were as distasteful as u can get (up there with South's supporters) anyway Eels had the last laugh and a group of their feral supporters were trying to start fights, kicking chairs etc.

  • I am confident of Eels gaining total control of Manly this afternoon . Parra to win 36 -12 . ..............................   MOM Junior Paulo ..............................   I don't wish to think about sin bins. 

  • 2am in Greece! Off for a 5 hour nap and then up at 7 to watch us pound Manly.

    Go Parra!!!!

    32-10 Eels win!

"Dylbags was dumb for playing at the hookers arm, this is always called a penalty, Hayne used to do it all the time and it was a penalty every time. 
For the record Hayne was square when he did it and so was Dylbags on the weekend. "

"Plus after he leaves he will dictate who replaces him and who leads the club on the field etc. all I'll say is the board should love the money the fans will bring in with Bennett there, memberships galore."
