We need Quade Cooper Urgent

I'm afraid to say it but we had no sense of direction, no kicking game, our passing game was F grade material and we just have no idea how to put constant pressure on our opponents.We need to offer Quade Cooper $1,000,000.00, not $500,000.00 and hope that we can pick him up for next year because this is the quality of footy we would expect from our dud halves.Our halves are crap full stop. Without them putting pressure on the opponents and constantly keeping the pressure let it be through kicks, passes or whatever they can do to keep the pressure on. We will struggle to win games. We are getting touched up by opposition that are struggling themselves.We need to get Quade into that number 6jersey urgent and hope that Murray wil fire in the 7 jersey from the word go and at the same time form a combination between both of them in order for the team to start firing.Thank God the year is over because we don't deserve to put up with this rubbish. We should be entrenched in the top four but because of games such as tonights, the Cronulla, Newcastle and Canberra games we are left at the bottom of the comp looking like a team of no hopers.Sorry boys but thanks for a very embarrasing year in 2010.Roll on 2011 I say and hopefully they will have a descent set of halves to lead us around the paddock and the rest of the teams attitude will be right so we don't haveto get embarrassed like we did in 2010.We fans deserve better then this rubbish.

  • agreed..but i think 1 mill is too much..haha
    horo for #6
  • I agree that we need someone of his calibre Adam, but I feel that paying 1 million is too much for him.
    Though we definitely need some guidance in our halves for next year.
  • I am a Quade Cooper fan, i do watch rugby and travel around to the tri nations matches. I honestly don't think Quade will come over in 2011, the world cup is such a big thing in a rugby players career.

    In saying that i agree that we need someone in the halves who can put pressure on the opposition. I reluctantly have to say that our half backs (all three of them - KK, DM,JR) are just very average first graders!

    We need another prop and we 1000% need a half who is dynamic and dominating.

    Is there something going on internally with the team?? they just don't seem to have the passion for it.
  • EASTWOOD????
  • it's embarrassing watching our halves close to the line sometimes.. you think, nothing's on, kick behind the line and try and get a repeat 6... and we put up a bomb that goes out on the full, or we kick it straight to a defender. So frustrating that we cannot produce a decent halfback out of all the quality players Parramatta supplies the NRL.
  • What really baffled me was Mateo kicking on the last tackle.
    Every kick he made either went out on the full or was fluffed.
  • Exactly Joe!!!!!!!! excuses excuses excuses we are not going to get him not for 2011 so let it go!!!!!!!!
  • Lol I know a mill is way to much but it's just a figure of speech. Man I have been supporting the eels since 1978 and I swear that I have never been so dissapointed In an eels side like this year. We have got the best team on paper but our halves are seriously not 1st grade standard and because of there incompetency we are
    made to put up with this crap week in week out.

    Something has to give because my poor heart cant put up with this crap any more....... I am now watching the Warriors
    monster the Broncos and I am worried what they will do to us next week. God help us because we are f@*#ked and if we don't sign Quade Cooper for next year then we have to cop another year like this.

    If we don't get Quade for next year then we need a distinguished half for next year and then throw everything at Quade the year
    after. I am telling you that it is a waste of time to bag any other player when we all know that our problems stem from our halves and until we resolve this issue then we will go no where full stop. I am so sick of saying "oh well there is always next year".
  • Organisation, shape and kicking were terrible tonight and that is being nice. Really need Cooper or a halfback of some sort. Keating/Mortimer are both 6's not halfbacks. What it also does is bring Haynes closer to the ruck and into the traffic where he is less effective.
  • And who plays halfback?
