Why is finishing bottom 4 not worth considering? 2018 we were top 8 certainties to only finish with the worst record in the comp by far. Anything can happen poops
Helped by yet another easy draw ( you can't half tell the NRL are desperate for the eels to win a comp ) the eels will make the 8 but won't be able to match it with top sides as always . Parra had more possession and tackles inside the storm 20 in the si final and they could not even score .
Unless a miracle has happened during the pre season it will be a case of the eels being world beaters against crap sides and big time losers against the top sides.
3rd -4th place finish, we would have to get some decent luck in regards to other top 4 teams injuries to really win it.
Still think Browns a bit green in the halves but depends on the effect of Johns, with johns assistance we might find another level of confidence.
Anything is possible this year imo, which is a lot better than being no chance.
Matto is going to be huge for us, i can just feel it, lets hope RCG will be the same.
This timmy curse has gone too, the first year where its been fully lifted in over a decade, his presence not being around the team cannot be underestimated, its a huge bonus to have him gone.
Snake do you know what Johns record is when it comes to helping players be better? He has been at a lot of clubs in a coaching capacity what has he actually done ?
"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…"
"I highly doubt the eels will take him back but they won't let him play for another nrl team for the next 3 years, he is going to have to find a home in rugby, he has made his bed so must now sleep in it.
To be honest I hope he fails miserably, it…"

I like the World Champions tag. The NRL have missed an opportunity there Popy. Maybe they should consider you as V'landy's assistant !
1) We'll find out in October
2) Top 4
3) Gonski
1. Not this year
2. 1-4
3. Sacked
Lot will depend how we start. If we get off to a flyer in the first 6 to 10 weeks, we are going to be a massive chance . Need to start well IMO.
1. They can
2. 2nd
3. Sacked.

If we finish bottom 4 BA should be sacked before seasons end.
