Johnson will play his 200th game for the club at CommBank Stadium,

  • Yeah apparently his in for them. Reports nanani might be out for Queensland too with a hipflexer so hopgood could be out too 

    • Typical isn't it that other clubs expel their origin players either through some lessened injury or other means so their sides aren't too depleted through rep responsibilities or get a bye during origin but the Eels get stuff all.

    • The reports yesterday was that he didn't finish training but that he was still fine to play, was just a point injury (short term painful, quick recovery).

      Really hoping we can get Hopgood back.

  • Bugger if that is also the case

    We could really do with Hopgood

    • If Johnson plays and Hopgood is out then it just got much harder for an Eels win. Talk about rigged or what🤔

      • PT do you realise Broncos, Storm, Panthers  and others have multiple  players out each year for 3 games and survive.   Would you like a bye now or end of season?

        • Exactly

          • Drooper, do you know the meaning of bad sportsmanship, I am going to say no, because nobody can be that stupid about your "rigged or what" whose attention are you trying to get by talking such rubbish?

            • Your attention Flopper 😂🤣

        • Yeah but the Broncos, Storm and Panthers tend to get extra special treatment from the refs, bunker and NRL which the Eels unfortunately don't appear to. A bye now and the end of the season would be great 😃
