Sivo and Lane why? Moretti over Makatoa..
Reece Walsh and Ezra Mam are going to have a field day.
The continued selection of Lane underpins exactly what is wrong with Brad Arthur. We may not have great replacements but at least show some consequences for actions.
💯this could be ugly!!
Talagi is going to give us his best impression of Sloane imitating a turnstile.
I haven't seen any pace in Talagi. He's nowhere near Sloan. I can't see him making it as an outside back. Maybe a 6
Maybe when Moses retires Talagi could be our attacking half to go with Dylbags being our defensive half.
The Eels backs are diabolical: BT, Sivo and Russell have all been dropped this season already. Simonnson is out of position. Penisini is going backwards (especially defensively). Brown will be promising to "step up" forever without actually stepping up. Sanders is a second gamer half behind a pack that plays about 50 minutes.
Lucky Reynolds is out, otherwise the Broncos might hit 50 by half time, given they will play with width to test the Eels' outside back defense. No Reynolds = Broncos to only reach 50 in final minutes.
According to Lane .....
Write the Eels off at your own peril.
🤣🤣
I thought he looked completely disinterested in that interview. I really don't think his heart is in it anymore.
Yep, RCG would die for him, Matto says they are not far off and they are playing tough footy. Now this from Slain. Seems the inner protected crew want to talk up the BA love. Well how about delivering it!
