"Really sucks for Samrani, he was just starting to hit his straps too. I'm just glad it's not a season ending injury, two ACL's gone in one week would have been crushing news.

"Agree, if we want instant success Burton would be the best option for now, but we'd end up over-paying in a bidding war if he goes to the open market."
"Cleary destroyed both Walker and DCE, one of the best young halves in the comp, and the most experienced... Best temper your expectations for this week Muttman, it will be a tough game, Panthers and Cleary are on a mission this year."

"What the hell are you talking about you old fool. I brought areas of your discussion, you argued against, i gave you facts and you have yet to show anything in response. The Keating comparison was an example of what i meant by not rating a player…"
"He needs developing. Eels need a FG half today. It doesn't make any sense to persist with him. Cleary will destroy him this weekend."

"Defence is definitely a big red flag haha, but in attack he's putting himself in spots to be effective. I'll give him a pass mark so far "
"I'm not much of a fan tbh. Defence is very poor "
"Definitely use Kelly until Will is back. Far to early to be blooding cup players yet. Not sure if they should move Sean over to Bailey wing and slide Bailey to centre. Ado and Kelly might work as a pairing but ill leave it to Rylesy"
"I thought the ground announcer got the vibe pretty well. And he was full of passion. It didn't come off like a TV journo or MC simply chalking up a weekend gig."
"I don't like his chances up north, he needs a few more years developing before he leads a team like that. Maybe Anasta can see how that's playing out and pull the pin on that move. I see a good 7 in Pezet but it's down the road a bit yet "
"He is a long-term prospect for the Broncos, they're looking ahead at life after Reynolds and Hunt. Sadly, the Broncos will be all over him like a rash if he isn't immediately performing. They're becoming probably the worst fans with their…"
"Definitely a much improved game day experience. The flags handed out at the gates were a great touch and looked awesome when everyone was waving the pre game. The gound announcer seemed to play a larger role as well, without overdoing things, which…"
"You sound desperate to me LB, its about a discussion, contrary to what you think if you can't keep up, don't bother trying. IMO at the moment Pezet looks a lessor player than Keating, but hey go back to the start of the blog, read it and if you…"

Jonah Pezet so far
Only 3 games into his eels career, plenty of ups and downs from Pezet but for the most part he seems a solid young half. His defence needs a lot of work but not sure moving to Brisbane and facing all of that pressure is going to help him. Looks like…

Game Day Experience
I know someone posted on here a while ago asking for feedback etc etc. I thought they did an excellent job yesterday and I'm so glad they dropped that god awful techno version of enter sandman. The atmosphere yesterday was really good. I love how…

Poppa's Corner: We made a mistake, lets admit it, move forward; and it looks like we are overrated!
This heading is probably something we don't like admitting to. Yes it implies criticism but I don't want to start looking for blame or scapegoats, just accept it and move on. The main issue in my mind is the "Pezet" experiment. It hasn't worked and…

There is no doubt he is a phenomenon. Averages 64, which is second only to the Don. And the most unusual thing about him is the way he bats, which defies modern techniques.
Here is an interesting bit of trivia for you. He has now scored 6 ashes hundreds in England. No England player has ever scored that many in England.
When you take out the first dozen or so tests when he was actually selected as a bowler his average is in the 80 plus area.
Who is he?
LOL
He's definately special. Teams just can't find a way to get him out.
His technique is not in the cricketing books. Neither was Bradman's though.
Watched his whole innings last night/early this morning and his technique and mental fortitude is right outside of the ordinary. Nothing flamboyant about him, just goes on with his business and rarely faiis.
He came into this season having miseed the first 7 months due to suspension and in a few months became the number 1 scoring batsman in the world of test cricket.
FMD, a 7 months handicap given to all test cricketers and he is now starting to blow them all out of the water, and all this after being terribly knocked out in the 2nd test and not playing in the 3rd test.
FMD. Just wow, wow, wow, wowwwwwwwwww.
Exactly Snake. I think Smith is the best batsman we've had since Bradman. Bats outside the box. So skilled, yet eccentric and unothodox.
Didn't expect it when I first saw him play. Looked awkward at first.
I must admit I was a huge fan of the Great West Indian top 3. Greenidge, Hayne, and Viv.
Viv Richards is one of my all time favourite batsman. He was the gum-chewing King Of The Jungle. Never even wore a helmet. Oozed confidence, skill and domination.
No idea who he is , but if he wears New Balance he better stay the fuck away from my kids .
Weak lilly livered piece of SHIT! and now we call him a hero.
No wonder this country is fuct.
There for his own glory and pay packet.
Bit like the NRL putting the wife bashers up as the game's heroes.
