Overall it was a bit of an up and down game for the NSW Cup lads, there were glimpses of brilliance and excitement for depth for the NRL side. This come quickly with moments of bizarness. I'm going to go through my thoughts particularly of the player
We all know the drill. The Eels play well, beat contenders, then fail to show up against a team not expected to challenge for honours. In the opening three rounds the Eels have seen off a contenders in the Storm and a top eight aspirant in the Sharks
"Our attack is still very questionable. We weren’t looking threatening when Moses was off the field because our widespread shapes are not going to lead to tries. We do not use decoy
Whilst "One swallow doesn't make a summer", Eels fans will be hoping last week's tough win against the reigning premiers is a sign of things to come. In a rare 80 minute performance, the Eels haven't been known for toughing out games and icing the bi

Sir Alex Ferguson, arguably the most successful manager and coach of all time with 49 trophies in total, said: "Most people with my kind of track record don’t look to change. But I always felt I couldn’t afford not to change. We had to be successful—
I'll start with Clint Gutherson, I think he will destroy teams in last 20 min , he is superfit and endurance is his bread and butter. I always thought Gutho would be good at AFL because of fitness and skill. be interesting to see what everyone else th
"Good stats there Mr Captain....Was Kearney really so fucking lame as to be exactly -19.1% below avg for both attack and defence....couldn't do it if you tried.

"I just relooked at the team. Nohra is on the bench because I assume Lorenzo will only play the first half as he is on the NRL bench. Plus Hudson is making his cup debut to spell Smitz which I have been asking for. So we only have 2 forward on the…"
