Sack Cayless and Robson

Sack Cayless and Robson. Sack 'em! Drop Mortimer, drop Poore and Matt Keating. Put Anthony Mitchell in at Hooker, blood Mitchel Allgood and stick with him, leave KK at half and make him kick, give Humble a run at 5/8, and get Inu more involved. A blog here said put him at centre. I agree, with Reddy. Tahu had a shocker, but he's better than that and we all know it.

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!

  • cayless yes ---
    inu --- must go players
    mateo ---
    poore ---

    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 .
  • I normally would agree with the Cayless comments but this is a team problem not just his lack of everything. I could easily call for some sackings but that is not going to fix the problem.

    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.
  • This is a RUBBISH idea!

    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!!
  • sure its a team problem but i agree calyess and robson have to go. but i know cayless wont be getting dropped anytime soon so ill be happy with just robson
  • Well said Gibson. good constructive feedback.

    Cayless is like a cashed up bank. A lot goes in, not much comes out!
  • agree - us fans need to let them know its unacceptable
  • I've just found this blog and I am a bit disappointed and befuddled. Wasn't it you Gibson who not too long ago complained about blogs like this!

    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.
  • Look I think Cayless was very close to being dropped last year with some of his performances but he sort of got out of jail when the teams and his own performances improved. This year he has been pretty good.

    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
  • I wasn't on this site last year, but halfway through the season were people going off like this or are things just bad in 2010 cause Parra made the Grand Final last year?
  • This has to be the current squad but players are not in the right positions. 9, 7 and 6 have be be changed. Kris and mortimer in the halves and robson to hooker. Matt to the bench. Also tahu i dont believe is a centre.... Has tahu ever been picked in origon as a centre? the answer is no, he gets picked as a winger. This has to be the last chance for tahu this week to prove himself as our best centre in that position. Is he better than inu? so far the answer is an easy no. Inu has the inside pass, the outside pass the fick pass can catch the ball, can run at and fend off oposition centres and positions his winger alot better than tahu . Inu is also a much better defender, prime example is what jamie lyon did to tahu in the manly game. Parra officials have to recognise this.
