Game day blog - Rabbitohs vs Eels

Slightly less fat Trell returns for the bunnies tonight after being Biden's biatch during his sick leave. Will Trell have an impact on the sook of the NRL in Code D Walker? Will Cook fire up the barbecue, or will the rabbits head south further and quicker than a MAFS star's undies on wedding night?

For the Eels, Matterson is out but if the Eels are serious about a title challenge they need to win these games. The boys need to get off their line quickly, niggle Mitchell early and get in Walker's face and pressure his kicks. Their young half is low in confidence and Dylbro and Moses need to keep it that way.

It should be a great game.

So, who wins and by what margin?

MOM?

    • Haha think you're on the money

  • Sivo will be out next week with the flu.  

    • Sivo is so predictable these days, offers little for his 500k salary

  • Moses, DBrown, whe are you?

    • Carefull, can't critise the bloke who should be starting at Origin or the form 5/8th in the comp.  

      • Wiz , to be fair, moses has the most try assists in the comp with daylight second.

        That suggests he's doing an ok job as a half.

        • So where has he been tonight?

  • No luck, refereeing at times has been poor, that was a penalty try or worst case a penalty and they had a better completion rate than Souths towards the end, only a dumb play from Moses to throw that on contact in pure desperation gave them the lead.

    Could come back but will be a grind, patience and win field position game. Tries will come.

     

  • How long has B A had to fix how edge defence,  quite monotonous.
