Furthermore, we thrash the storm and other top sides during the year.

Not sure about you guys but this has got to be our finest achievenment since 2009, making the grand final that year.

Had we played penrith or storm this week in the grand final with our first 6 round form, we would thrash both grand finalists by 30 points.

I mean, just look at our team, Paulo, RCG, Matterson, Nthan brown, would any of you swap them with any other players?

With the exception of Cam smith, I wouldnt pick any other player to be in our first grade squad.

King gutho is so damn good he is from my perspective the best fullback for the last 20 years.

moses is incredibly talented but just lack a bit of confidence. 

 

I have this upbeat feeling going forward to 2021. Up the mighty eels<3 <3

after a few drinks, I am in a good mood tonite and feeling positive.

  • Wasn't our year. Sivo and Fergo going down killed us. Losing MJ on game day was like dropping a nuke on our club.

    I think our strength and conditining staff need to take a good hard look at themselves it was obvious they gassed our boys too soon this year we looked buggered and came alive against storm but this just bought out injuries. 

    we need to do something different this pre season the old Kiama trip running up sand dunes doesn't work 

     

    • perhaps wayne bennett approach , timing the boys to peak at the endof the season would be a good strategy. we max out too early and our form in last 8 rounds resembles the eels of 2019, not bad but not good either.

      I knew we would go out in straight sets. its so heart breaking.

      I really thought i am buying grand final tickets to see us to victory.

      Poor sterlo almost had tears in the commentary after the game. Its time we win.

    • hahaha. a bit of grog is good for you son:)

    • We've gotta maintain the dope quota, otherwise it wouldn't be a sports fan site.

  • I wouldn't say we thrashed the storm, just beat a storm team full of reserve graders. 

     

    • guess i got a bit overboad with the word THRASH. stil it was a good win.

      For some reason, we cant play away from home.

      We go gangbusters at banwest but fail to aim up and turn up when travelling.

      if we can arrest this , we will go close next year if not win the whole damn thing.

      • I'm sorry I don't like it

      • Yep gangbusters alright....

        38 - Zip vs Bunnies round 16

        That one hurt.

What is ment is he has had a strong finish to last year and is showing good signs but the club is backing Lorenzo so that puts Volkman into a unknown zone"
