As soon as he said that (or close to that) to Danika at half time, I knew Eels were about to get pumped very hard. I’d already said to the wife at half time Eels were in trouble. She blames their losses on me when I say shit like that. Told her they should have been at least 20 in front at half time. Bombed tries, turnovers immediately after points. Unfortunately, the writing was on the wall. “Front loaded” their effort in first half to win possession and field position, but had fuck all to show for it.

  • We just don't even look interested in playing footy this year. So clunky and have nothing in attack and defence. 

  • Would prefer have someone like Stone back who competes on every play over many in our overpaid pack who have soft defensive efforts and refuse to chase the play once the play goes past them.

    Defence is effort and discipline which is lacking in our overpaid players.
