1eE Modern day Eels team: Utility, no.14

Ok so the starting 13 is finally decided and done.

Luke Burt will partner Semi Radradra on the Wings.

Now onto the bench, the way this will work to make it not so convoluted, i will make it a proper bench with a Utility, 2 middles and an edge.

Positive Comments:

No injuries.

All other comments:

• After the first minute of the game I immediately knew that no matter how good we try to play that we would not win the game. The corruption was pretty clear. But wow we played awful.

Kemp: Eels vs Storm R1 refereeing was "Disgraceful"

Denan Kemp, the former Broncos NRL player and SEN commentator was equally scathing of the Eels as the officiating in the Eels’ Round 1 loss to the Melbourne Storm in his podcast.

“The jersey deserved better than that second half," he admitted.

JAC CHANCE TO RETURN THIS WEEK VS BRONCS

Per Marty John's show where he is a special guest. Thumb wasn't taped up. When asked how it is he said he couldn't give too much away but is a chance of returning this week against Broncos.

We're gonna need him... 

Poppas Corner: Super says Richardson is a CEO and unlikely to want to report to someone over the top of him.

Super's right of course and basically he has thought about how people fit.

Its little subleties like these that get overlooked when we throw lifelines out in desperation to replace someone that arguably had no influence on the game we lost on the wee

1eE Modern day Eels team: Winger (redo)

Jim Dymock is the Lock Forward, meaning the starting 13 is now complete bar the last Wing spot which was a tie between Luke Burt and Eric Grothe Jr.

Now bias is Burt i hope gets it, i mean who would think Burt is my favourite all time player? Weird wh

Mark O'neill out - Shane Richardson in

Mark o'neill 

* failed with the get out clauses 

* failed with attracting top players 

* The Brown contract was a complete stuff up

* Needed Ryles to hold his hand to finally fix development, where previously reserve grade was a holding yard for rejected

1eE Modern day Eels team: Lock

Nearly at the starting 13, Manu Ma'u just scraped by with one vote over Beau Scott for the other Second-Row spot next to Nathan Hindmarsh.

Now onto Lock forward.

After this i will do one revote on the final wing spot between Eric Grothe Jr. and Luke Bu

Flegg win against Storm

Today, in Flegg, we downed the Storm the hard way.

Down 12 blot after 15 minutes we came back to shut the storm out 28-18.

Ryda played like Matto today, very disapointing...

1eE Modern day Eels team: Second-row

Sorry guys i don't think the survey worked so will add it again.

PJ Marsh has come out of nowhere to secure the starting Hooking role for this side. With a 3 way tie for 2nd between Drew, Mahoney and Riddell.

Now onto the back-row, one of them is a fo

The next generation

I really hope these next generation of halves we have coming we hold onto. Don't blame Sanders leaving credit to him played well 

Izack Tago dropped to bench for Penrith

Are there issues at Penrith for Izack Tago? Dropped to the bench in favour of Tom Jenkins. Rumour circled that Lomax for Tago trade was sort of mentioned. Talk of wanting to play at same club as Jake. Now let's say it is true that he wants to play wi

Stephen Kearney vibes from Gomer Ryles.

Assistant coach to Craig Bellemy pretty much means piss boy to the head coach. 

It's a little too familiar. The Storm arrogance without Uncle Craig in charge. 

Gomer Ryles got out in spades 

One game only, same old story. 40 years of this rubbish (spoiler alert REALLY REALLY LONG POST)

Hopgood 2 week ban,

Pretty much expected don't really care as we have so many middles but NRL is sticking it to us 

Does anyone have hope for the rest of the season?

24 hours ago, I was so hopeful. I seriously thought we could push for a finals spot and be a serious darkhorse.

I didn't think we'd beat Melbourne, but I thought we would put up a very good fight and come away with positives despite the loss. After th
