Brad Arthur

I've always defended the bloke but what the f&@k. Eels best forwards are sitting on the bench with penis hands Terepo and friends running around like headless chooks.

Great Game! Great Comeback

This is the best performance from an Eels team in a long time despite the past 4 wins. The Eels showed maturity and composure which has been lacking in past years. I was really thinking the Panthers might run away with a victory but I'm very proud of

This is the test for us now

• 10 points down
• Out muscled 
• Against a organised defence 

If we stay in the contest and loose its a positive 

A come back win and it confirms our credentials 

Blow out loss and doubts are back.

I think Brown needs to adjust to the new rules he has been arou

Good signs, very happy

BA/Team leaders did well to adapt and come back to win. Penrith knew the Eels game plan well in advanced and defended it well. We kept trying bombs to the winger and offloads and they were failing and the bombs were wasting potential six again grubbe

HIA has gone MIA

Not one hia in that game? We were penalized for a highshot in the first half. No checkuo? Gutho's head seemed to hit the ground pretty hard. I'm not complaining, but whats going on?

Eels players who were better players than given credit for or remembered for?

I'll name four..

Clinton Shifchofski, very good player, would have killed it in rugby and played for the wallabies.

Danny Crnkovich, always gave his all in a beaten team.

David Vialeki, big hitter with great pace, good skills

Ian Hindmarsh could go all d

Ahhhh BA you’ve done it again......

1. Gutherson- who ?
2. Ferguson- too old ?
3. Jennings -too old ?
4. Blake - penrith reject ?
5. Sivo - who ?
6. D. Brown - parra junior ?
7. Moses - signed a reputable player & parra junior
8. RCG - signed a reputable player
9. Reed Mahoney- parra junior ?
10. Junior Paulo - parra junior

Props: Quality or Quantity

Been thinking for a while that giving Junior and RCG long minutes is too much quantity and not enough quality. Now we have Evans and Nuikore on the bench we should not need to keep our starting props out there for nearly all the game. Especially this

NEW RULES: A THUMBS UP, BUT IS THERE A FLIP SLIDE?

This blog will invoke the bikini principle of statistics: interesting to look at, but concealing the most crucial bits and pieces. Along with two caveats.

Firstly, and most importantly, the majority of fans are ecstatic with the new rules as it helps

Thoughts on the Knights

what is everyone's thoughts on the Newcastle Knights? Real deal premiership threat or powder puff stuff? In other words once their bubble bursts it's all over red rover. Will the Eels also be similar? Once the Eels get beat will it be a string of los

Nathan Brown

Yes he is close to our best forward and has been for a few years. But do you think our forwards play better without him? It seems he takes 2 runs every set and the other guys can't get into the game. It's just an observation and I hope he kills and a

The Takka situation

if there has been one consistent complaint about BAs coaching its his use of the Interchange bench

People are very quick to criticise takka's role or lack there off but im going to actually give credit where credit is due.

Keeping takka on the bench me

4 from 4 but far from perfect.

33 missed tackles

Taka left on bench.. Bludged the whole game What an absolute waste of a jumper and interchange. Forcing others to work harder

Dumb mistakes

We are yet to reach the level of the Roosters, yet still winning.

There you go Frankie we beat a

Is the 8 already decided ?

Clearly this blog is in the "going off too early" category, but does anyone else feel that the 8 is in effect, if not in fact, already decided ? 

I get that there is still 16 rounds to play, but is there a real contender to make the 8 that is not curr

Round 4 charges: Blake fined over high shot

Eels centre Waqa Blake has escaped suspension despite being charged for a high tackle in his team's dramatic win over Manly.

Blake has been charged with a grade-one careless high tackle for a 19th-minute incident involving Sea Eagles hooker Danny Levi
