Cayless never seems to perform when the pressure is right on. Tonight he was turning his back to the Sharks defenders when he jogged up to the line. The bloke has to go. He throws dumb passes, panics, drops the ball; I'm sick of him, and I'm not alone. If I said it once here I've said it a hundred times, Cayless is well and truly past it and is a bundle dropper of gigantic proportions. And sorry to say it but Hindmarsh the great player is no more. He's slow, he doesn't hurt in defence any more and every opposition player knows how to manage him. Tackles his heart out but he's not the same player any more. I love him but we've seen the best of him.
The Eels are in trouble and while Daniel Anderson has always been loyal to the players I think the fans will start getting cheesed off if he doesn't wield the axe. Our kicking game is non existent and our clowns let Albert Kelly completely off the hook. Tonight was our chance to grind him into the mud, but nup! Our halves are totally ineffective.
That was pathetic tonight. I hate Ricky Stuart, but good luck to him, they deserved the win at our shameful expense.
I really thought the mighty swarm and the bongos would save our year! Apparently not!

robson ---- move to bench , still handy as dummy half or fill in backline defense
hindy -------------- no way he is just injured trying his best he is the heart and sole of the eels , you take him out and eels wait 25 more years ok .
One could say Tahu was very costly tonight - he attempted what seemed to be an intercept which means he got caught out of position - try 1, then dropped the ball - try 2, then dropped the ball - 0 score for the eels and that is just picking out one player that frustrated me tonight. in saying this I would not sack him but he might want to make some adjustments before he is dropped.
Robson lacks direction or should I say has no direction but what amazes me he is always there tackling, maybe we should put him in the hooker position and see how he goes.
The thing that we need is belief, pride and passion we have none of it..... I would like to see some changes but we need to be careful as changes can break confidence.
Cayless dropped one ball. Apart from that he did well tonight. He is consistently one of our best forwards and cops it to no end constantly.
Poor Caylo, honestly, his work is never ever appreciated and neither are his leadership skills.
Bar Tim Mannah - all our forwards should be looking at their performances. It is not Caylo's fault!!
Cayless is like a cashed up bank. A lot goes in, not much comes out!
I fully understand your frustration with our performance but can we stop finger pointing at the same players all the time. The team is not performing as a team and as a whole. Defensively we are slow, in attack we are slow. None of our general play kickers are going any good. Dropping all these players that US FANS (not all but there are many) keep calling for is going to fix absolutely nothing!
If we wield the AXE to all these players, where are we going to draw new ones from? We have the U20's at 1 win from 4, Wenty 2 from 4, NRL 1 from 4.... Please tell me where we have players performing better than the current NRL squad? Nowhere that I can see.
The thing about Cayless he is not a power athlete who will bend three or four players back, if he gets gang tackled he is going to be put on his arse and sometimes the ball will pop out and you will just yell at the telly in full voice 'you suck balls Cayless'.
But the reality is he is a tackling machine and workhorse who does a lot of the tough and ugly stuff no one else wants to do. Similar to Hindy in that respect
