Unicorn Rising

We've all been hurt before by the eels and their world beater one week wooden spooners the next form. I thought this was a huge danger game for us which would show where we are mentally as in the past we have aimed up against top sides then gone complacent against lower ones. We have now won 6 in a row and the Comp and media are starting to take notice. Don't get me wrong the bulldogs first 30 minutes were one of the worst performances I've seen from a team in years. However we managed to do what we've been unable to in recent years and actually capatalise on it. Eels aren't flicking wins anymore and our halves well and truly controlled the tempo and the game tonight. If we were the broncos everyone would be saying this is characteristic of a Bennett coached side peaking at the right time..... have we "arrived"?

"Thanks KN/ EA. Just checking my gut feeling. Hopefully, he stays & makes good on his potential. I like his upside: footy nous, big body, kicking game, goal-kicker. Ain't many sixes offering all that. He's called by many in RU as a "Sua'ali'i clone…"

"Rasati might find his path to NRL replacing Russell or Penisini.

Slippery. replied to Eelawarra's discussion NRL LEGENDS EXPLAIN WHY THEY HATE BRETT KENNY

 Brett Kenny is the reason I support the Eels. He was the most naturally gifted player I have ever seen. In my opinion Imortal status he is worthy of. However, what I find even more bizarre is the fact that Brett Kenny was not once named in the…"
