"We didn't play bad against each Penrith we just gave away errors and penalties. And maybe if we had a defense we'd probably lose that game 30-20 or even been close. We need something to click soon."
"Cleary is trusting the process after 4 back to back premierships and another on the way. Their team just walloped a team by 50, the team they walloped just put 50 on us. The process they're trusting has proven incredible success behind it... that's…"
"Agree Muttman, barely anything to be overly excited about like most seem on here seem to be.
Wish they would announce the signing of a Casey McLean or something of that standard."

"Thought we weren't that bad last week, we just looked terrible against the panthers. Can't remember a time where a team has been so far ahead of the pack. Perhaps not since us in 2001"

"The panthers are great, there is no denying it but boy do they get every decision go their way. "
"I keep banging on how fucked the game is ........OK in the 80s it was just us dogs and manly ............how good is the game now ?"
"Maybe eels weren't so bad, didnt see tonights game, but on face value, we scored more and clearly panthers head and shoulders better than everyone. Eels might be a chance v tigers. Win that game and we back on track. Just hopefully no more injuries!"
"Yep.. I know the season is early and lots can change but don't see anyone putting up much of a fight at this rate.
Storm had 94% completion rate but still had 50 put on them wtf.

"Penrith just do things way better then anyone else. They hardly drop the ball. One thing i've noticed is in the first 15 min they have 68 percent possesion to 32 percent the opponent. This is where they do their damage put on 20pts in the first…"

This man "THE CROW" is my all time fav EEL. When I played rep league as a youngster I tried to mould my gam and goal kicking around him
Very classy player and man 👏🏻👏🏻👊😎
Theres the carlo kiss of death right there.
Mick, please be safe in the next few days/weeks.
😆😆😆 far out lol
Bit overrated though, wouldnt want him kicking a goal to save your life.
Wouldnt want him coaching to save your life either
i was just throwing out a few crumbs HKF, looking for a nibble
Nice one Garry, good to see you got out ok, rumoured to be a few bodies buried under the Gerringong.
Your opionion mate. To be honest It was mentioned by the rep coach back in 84 when I played school rep footy that I played a bit similar to the crow. My all time fav and always will be
There is a reason he is the first "Champion" of Parramatta. Played in all of our Grand Final wins. One of the all time greats and worthy of Immortal status. I laugh at anyone who knocks him as a goal kicker. He held the all time ARL/NRL point scoring record for years kicking leather balls from sand mounds. More importantly, a champion human being. Great photo Garry.
Also needs to be remembered he didn't start playing NSWRL until he was 26 so his total points scored could have been higher if he started earlier.
