Wenty

Early stages in the Wenty match , but the same problems that are evident in our 1st graders are here too.Poor discipline , simple dropped balls, not playing the ball with the foot penalties conceded (Au’va), pushing impossible passes when on the attack (Hoffman), not testing the opposition with our shitty attacking shapes . I really think BA and his staff have dropped the ball. I’m not one for blaming the coach for everything that goes wrong but our discipline has definitely dropped below NRL standard. We are struggling right from the basic fundamentals , and it’s a problem in both grades.We really lack creativity and persist with out dated attacking shapes . BA really needs to evaluate how we’re doing things as if he doesn’t he won’t have a job post his current contract.

Jaeman salmon...remember the name

  Salmon was like a fish out of his depth. Now don't get uptight with that. He was the best player that I saw in the game, & saw around 50 minutes only. He very much alternated between half and hooker in dummy half roles.
  
  Cameron King had at least 4 attempts at a try from dummy half and guess how many he got?
  
  I was also impressed with Stone, he's above the others in the team, and I liked what I saw in Aukafolou as well.
  
  Nathan Davis scored a try and showed some pace in doing so but, for someone of his size he's - meow. That might harsh but for someone as big as he is, and with his pace should be much stronger, ISP grade.
  
  Oregan Kafusi looked ok in the time on the field.
  
  I would see Stone, and Aukafolou good for the NRL also Salmon, no matter at 6 or 9 will do a great job. Niokure did not play.

  I think that was kafusi's first game of ISP and he hasnt played much u20s either... it was a pretty solid performance for someone playing at a higher level than what is expected
  
  Stone will be in FG be seasons end surely with marata a big chance to play next week

    Stone is not able to play NRL he is development only at this stage.

being let down by more experienced idiots like Au’va turning the ball over coming out of his own end

Salmon looks like he knows how to run straight. Maybe Norman should watch him for tips

"HFK, If I'm wrong about Pezet & he turns out to be a complete lemon, so be it. We all get things wrong, make mistakes, make false assumptions.
What kind of six is Ryles after? Dunno. But Pezet appears to have footy IQ with swagger, a kicking game,…"

"Whether there is a definitive answer or not, it'll have nothing to do with us signing Pezet. He was only available for 2026. He had already signed with the Broncos long term from 2027."

"I have been highly critical of the decision and have copped a little blow back for it, let's see in 12 months time with the eels heading into the 2027 season if they don't have a definitive answer on who will be our long term 6 if the people…"
