  • Id almost prefer guymer at centre, mobile enough and better in defence than Kelly. He just needs to hold the edge, we have plenty of attack elsewhere in the team imo. 

    • Guymer got burnt twice on the outside on Sunday, he might be just good enough against the lower half of the comp at center, but not fast enough to defend against the better teams like Penrith.

      • mate I hear you, tell me who is going be any better against this side ?

  • If Penrith don't have a send off or early injury to either Cleary, Yeo or Edwards.... Penrith by plenty. Hopefully not as much as the Storm game 😬

  • as long as Ryles keeps making shit team selections the EELS will go nowhere , does he know who they are playing , PENRITH , undefeated after 3 rounds , I mean they never even raised a sweat , they are likely to go through undefeated on current form , and we pick a shit side to play them , I mean Debelin and Kelly would be struggling to make first grade even with the Titans , which I might add Kelly hence why took the easy money from the eels 

    • Kelly is our last fit centre. That's why he's been selected. Samrani and Penisini are both injured.

      • really says alot about our backline depth, kelly playing really worries me!

        • Kelly as your 4th choice centre is actually an alright option. Your not going to get much better for 4th choice.

          • It doesn't really say much though does it EA if Russell and Penisini are the high tide at the position how good are our centres really and Russell's off next year so we have another hole to fill.

            Now if you told me we land a Paul Alamoti or someone of similar ilk then I think we could turn the corner but outside of that Kelly was a soso signing nothing to jump around bout there.

"Our spine is settled except 6. I don't think Penrith would be 100% happy with Tulagi at 6. Brisbane and Warriors are trying to fit 3 halves into 2. Melbourne would be the most settled spine tbh. You expect Moses, Ryley and Iongi will just get better…"

"Not at all I think there's still big question marks in the spine you don't know what you have at hooker just yet and 6 flip a coin we are going to have another 6 the third one in 3 years.
Regardless this teams high tide IMO as constructed is a top 8…"
