"What i take from this story with BA, is that BA plans to be here long term? "

"To forward heavy and relying on the power game.
This is why we will never win a premiership with BA coaching. 
He hasn't adapted to how the game has changed. Not sure if it's stubbornness or he has no idea how to run a different game plan but enough…"

"My thoughts exactly. "

"Never invested in top line talent ?  Obviously Mike Wood has never read this site .  We have the top 3 player in the NRL in almost every position .  There were  two clubs circling for Brown , Paulo , Matto and Moses , and we were just lucky nobody…"

"I can see that he's got plenty of raw talent but the way the club is carrying on, anyone would think he's the next coming of Jarryd Hayne.

"With is injury history, he's probably having his training loads managed."

"Kid needs more strength and conditioning. Also learn to tackle better.  I do question his natural speed though. He's a couple years off 1st grade IMO. Having said that, if BA is to use him at fullback, Gutho makes a good hooker. Gutho's darts from…"

"We have the better team. They have the better coach. 
Don't forget what Bennett did with an absolutely garbage Origin squad a few years back.
If both teams play to their potential and we're not massively out-coached, Eels by 16."

"How about he gets taught to tackle first"

"I agree.
I also think Lomax and Gutho will be on an edge together next year and Talagi will be Fullback."

"Has to be an Eels win this one surely... half the Phins are injured! Eels by 20."
