    • Moretti and Teecum need to be in the team, they add speed with the play ball same with doorey. Hopgood, Paulo dont add that.

  • I get it the ref didnt help our cause pretty much two tries in the first half came from ref intervention ....but we got no one to blame but ourselves pathetic 

  • Challenge it. Cleary got his downgraded.

  • What a fucking joke. 

    Admittedly, I am looking at this as an Eels supporter, but what else could Hopgood do in the situation? MacDonald changed angles and stepped into him. 

    I want the club to challenge it, even if Hopgood is unsuccessful. This call and the knock on from Kelly don't pass the pub test.

  • If this is the benchmark for how the Eels are being policed this season, any minor or accidental infringement will be punished to the maximum. Biased or influenced refs maybe, but the MRC is a different beast and while we can fight the charges after the games it would help during those 80 mins.

    its a long season ahead guys. Maybe the lesser or two evils was to let Bromax go. Making NRL/HQ look the way they did with how everything happened wasnt going to bode well in the long run

"From around the 45th minute to the 72nd minute Storm completed 17 sets to our 3 sets. 
The score went from 18-4 to 46-4 in the 66th. Then Simmo was sin-binned.
It's a minor miracle only 6 points were conceded in the last 14 minutes with 12 men.…"

"1000% this. As soon as you're gassed you're done. 
Six against and sin bins are death in this current game. Regardless of all other factors if you can't stay disciplined you will get pumped."
