How did this site become a political mess?

I hardly comment anymore on posts. If I do, I try keep my opinions to myself. Not worth it. 

The way people get treated here sometimes is straight up appalling. Comments are made to cut deep. The pack mentality runs wild.

I come here because I'm an Eels fan. Turns out some people are here because they're fans of themselves.

  • I think HOE and Super explained well, why McLovin was banned. There's no need to start another blog about it calling out the mods for their pack mentality. 

    • LOL!!!!

  • I agree, most on here are intent on delivering a serve back,  working on their biggest insult or trying to prove someone wrong rather than talking about the footy.

    Some commenters on this site have a great take on footy and I enjoy reading their opinions, especially if it's different from my own, Frankie and Poppa being a couple of examples... While I don't always agree, they almost always present a different view which is important to value and respect.

  • Whatever it is you don't like, i am happy as it has kept you  shut up you sanctimonious virtue signalling stooge.

    • Randy is right on the money here, all EAM does here is attack people and put people down, this blogs hillarious coming from such a toxic poster lol

      • SeS, I'll defend myself or someone else when needed. Unlike some, I don't come here to put people down. 

        You call me a toxic poster. Please. I think anything you don't agree with is considered toxic. 

    • Virtue signalling? Ha, na mate, I  always back my statements and opinions. 

  • I honestly don't notice all the sniping. Whenever a thread goes off topic and becomes personal I skim straight past it. 
    My observation of this site is it tends to the negative. Parra win 50 - nil and there'll be a thread about how BA didn't use the bench properly or that the Storm would have won by 60. 

    • That's a great assumption mutts, but don't forget, some are subconsciously trying not to get their hopes up as to make what they assume as the enviable fall softer, but who couldn't blame them? Been a while lol. Not their fault.  No doubt Arthur has done well. Some good improvements with a few younger players coming through. 

    • I'm the same Muttman. I hate it when you see a blog with multiple pages, at first you think, "oh.., this might be a good one..." then you just find that it spiralled out of control with abuse.

"Alamoti is the reason they are letting Jenkins walk i believe? They are prioritising the likes of McLean, Alamoti and the likes. They only had reportedly $350k to offer Jenkins."

"Another player we can raid Penrith for is Alamoti. Can negotiate from November 1st. Penrith have a lot of players to keep and extend. We could go hard for him. Good defender, kicks, has alittle X factor about him. "

"Firstly, well done calling out Ryles as well if this signing is true as some here wont admit it. But also there would be a lot here hoping and praying he does sign so they can continue to criticise as it is more fun."

Once he signs, if he is to, then go for your life.

SULI - NO THANKS

3 runs, 4 tackles and one bad miss that led to a try in Dragons v Sharks game today. Cumbersome at best. Centres need speed and he doesn't have it. Hoping that the rumours about him signing are wrong.
