    We only win this if we ambush them early. Maintain more than 55% possession. Keep putting on points and don't stop. We don't win a slow grind, and we cannot fight back into this game from a slow start.

    Bit nervous with this one

    Kelly is shit and it's crazy starting Walker.

    This will be the second game of the season we get 50+ put on us.

    We also have Todd Smith as the on field ref. This is the same plokner who refed the Storm v Eels game in round 1.

      I farking cant stand Todd Smith.  That's the nail in the coffin right there

    • macybrown > BEM March 24, 2026 at 4:51pm

      Disgusting ref. Wonder we didn't get one eyed  Atkins since it's v panthers, hope he ain't in the bunker? 

    • Mallee57 > BEM March 24, 2026 at 5:17pm

      Todd Smith worst referee in NRL. Agree that Walker should come off the bench. Hard to see Eels winning this

  • macybrown March 24, 2026 at 4:43pm

    Bit disappointed Walker is starting, think we look much better with him upping the ante off bench ...argh well :(

    glad Moretti is in.

    unlucky Guymer thought he tried real hard last game given the shitty circumstances

    I just feel we need a different point of attack. Papaili needs to be on the bench.

"I'd put Walker back to the bench and start with one of Luca, Doorey or Guymer. 
Otherwise, cool."

"He's getting better each week so we need to stick with him. As much as i'd like to see Papalli in there somewhere, i think the only way we see him is if there's an injury to either Pezet or one of the hookers, or if Pezet gets dropped at some point."

"Well they may feel he needs to fix a few things and will be fine. Maybe even the mindset of he could be fine now but why play him when he can be more ready in from Cup?
Lorenzo is in a great spot right now, Flegg eligible and starting in Cup. He…"
