    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

      • Hector Bob Down > Mallee57 March 24, 2026 at 8:06pm

        Happy Days i was thinking shit we are in for it against the panthers . Then seen we have Todd Smith  as the referee changed opinion to we are really stuffed. plus Liam Kennedy in the bunker. All i can see is PAIN

    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

"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. "
