  • Hang in there Shawn - I can assure you it could be a lot worse and I am not taking the piss mate.

    • Thanks I am sure it can be worse. I made it through a heart attack. Lost 38kg and doing great personally. 

      •  S McCabe : I have had heart problems this year also. My advice is don`t watch the Eels live on TV. That will get you free of any stress. If they win, watch it on replay. It is still enjoyable. I have broken my own rule tonight. I watched the first half but I am not watching the second half---I feel the Eels play better when I am not watching them??!! If they lose I don`t watch the replay.

        • Cooke should of been sent off when you watch it. But he won it for them what a cheat.

           

  • Hope the Eels win it for yourself, and all the pain ridden Eels supporters out there

    • We need it.

  • And to finish it off. Cooke with a blatant foul does not get ten in the bin. And he wins the game after that. Fuck 2020.

  • Shawn, if you need to vent to stay on top of things then you go for it, the mob on here are a pretty decent lot and will give you support where they can.

    Shame our Bush Coach let you down tho. lol

     

  • Sorry to hear Shawn. My condolences go out you and your family.

"Thats why I think we should lock him now for another 5 years at a salary we might partialy save from Matto.
Question! if Matto is retired for health reasons, do we get the credit back on the total year or just the unused portion ?"

"Yeh! I agree Richard, I feel we got good value out of Reggie and it was only at the very end we lost him. Very comfortable him being pensioned off to the Titans just the same.
I think Coryn just got RCG and Waqa caught up in the same sentence."

Two Hooker discussion

The Eels currently have somewhat of a good dilemma. Who is the future? Is it Ryley Smith or Tallyn Da Silva. Both very different style of Hookers with different paths to first grade. Da Silva was a prodigy from Western Suburbs, playing SG Ball to FG…
