  • Maybe Penisini has been traded to the warriors for Barnett lol

      "Oh boy would I?.....wait aren't we playing this week? Hello, Jason?"

  • Stats aren't everything, but:

    Penisini V the Storm

    13 runs for 157m (Eels 2nd best - Iongi 159m)

    PCM's - 52 (Eels 2nd best - Kitione 62m)

    Tackle Breaks - 6 (Eels 2nd best - Iongi 7)

    Line breaks - 2 (Eels best, we only had 3 all up) 

    Tackles 9 / 4 missed (could be the issue?)

    Errors - 2 (not great but not alone, Kitione 2, Moses 2, Pezet 3) - and 1 of them was a few inches off being a great solo try.

    Be surprised if he's dropped, even if defense related? Especially if Pezet remains in the 17.

    • Yes going off those stats he's definitely picked up an injury 

  • Penisini was not our problem last week. I know he makes a few dumb mistakes, but we have bigger problems than him. 

  • Rather Samrani! Does seem odd given the speculation of swapping him for old Barnett. Penisini can be really great at times and then really off at other times. Samrani has been very impressive and seems very strong and determined which is what Parra need at the moment

  • Samrani going well but not great lateral movement when defending at centre

"Pezet was terrible in defense against the Storm and ineffective with the ball, though we can't expect much playing half in a side going backwards. 
We should not be seeing Pezet talking up his next gig, as that will just turn fans against him…"

"To have someone with 190 games expierence as a depth signing if someone gets injured is pretty good to me. Kelly isn't a starter, he might not even be 1st man up after an injury, but he is good to have in a squad. Not complaining."
