"Surely Bamblett is young enough to learn these things EA. He is 19 years old. I remember watching him last year and I didn't rate him at all. 12 months later he is twice the player. Who knows what sort of player he'll be at 21.

"Bamblett is very strong while Twidle isn't. When/if Bamblett fills out he could be an absolute beast."
"He looks bigger than Twidle to me. Taller anyway. His contact will improve as he gets stronger and he can use his mobility to find his place at 6. Coaches can challenge a players defence easier than teaching that natural flair in attack. "

6. Sharpe

That's what the Knights want to do with their spine, not sure if that's good enough for a premiership but it will get them playing finals"

Last week, the Parramatta Eels showed they can win with controlled rage and a plan.
This week, they’re up against it again. History says so. Form says so. The bookies say so. The venue says so. “Fozball” says so.

"Then again EA, it is on the club and himself to decide what path to approach. If he and the club feel 6 can work, then work with him. He either improves enough where he gets game time or he doesn't and goes back to Fullback and hopes for an opening.…"
"What about miller and nunn?"
"As i said, no harm him doing it in Flegg."
"I don't rate him at 6 because he doesn't know how to defend in the front line. His reads are horrible. He defends with his feet planted against shape which leaves his centre in two minds on whether Bamblett will get to his player or not. His contact…"
"Well he can't even defend well in the front line against u19s sg ball so not sure how he can against JF"
"I am quiet confident Bamblett will move to fullback when Fletcher returns. Moujali and Fletcher will probably be the halves. "
"Yeah, no harm doing so in Flegg. Particularly defending in front line against players 2-3 years older."
"Though there must be something there is they are playing him at 6."
"I agree. Bamblett might be better at 1 but the opportunity in our NRL side is at 6. He might as well get as many reps there as he can."
"Why don't you rate him at 6. Its better we try him at 6 as you don't want to pidgin hole him to 1, then he leaves because Iongi has the fg spot all tied up.
Having him at 6 is a good move"
Having him at 6 is a good move"
"I don't rate Bamblett at 6 at all!! Drives my head in that he is playing 6. He is an out an out fullback to me. He had good moments during the game, but it were plays you expect from a fullback "

Did eels dodge a bullet with Galvin?
I will say he tried hard tonight, but is he the answer? Eels at less than half strength beat them, now broncos as well, who are missing plenty. Does this show how well the dogs are really going?Did eels dodge a bullet?

Cannot see why not, but unfortunately the battling line looks as fragile as poppa's hips!lol it appears it could be a tough summer
Nothing wrong with my hips Mickey. It what hangs off them thats a bit wobbly!
Please no pics pop's!lol Keep it PG.
In the absence of 'experts' in the field I'd think the batsmen at the top of the order need to book a bulk visit to a good shrink. The fog and uncertainty need to expelled so they can play once again assured. Only Travis, Marsh and Carey are currently mentally fit to play a role in the test team. India has a dynamic bowling group, but they're aided large by the meek effort of some of our batters.
Hope you're right Mick, I always look to our cricket team to take my mind away from the o'rf season. If there's no bounce back from them, my only back-up is the Thunder.
Yeah RJ, cricket is a great game takes our minds off footy for while but now its seems NRL is 365 day business - all it takes is a great knock or great partnership and it can turn a series
They need a talk from Steve Waugh. Learn what it takes for the mental disintegration of your opponents. To do that, you have to be completely switched on and focussed yourself.
The lack of red ball cricket has also not helped. Where is the Sheffield Shield? That's supposed to produce Test Cricketers, but all we have seen is T20 and a few one-dayers.
Team overall is getting too old and the current state of Shield cricket is uninspiring.
We are on the decline, unless a few unexpected youngsters jump out of the ground.
The bowlers tend to be pretty good game to game but the batters (ex Head) are basically flat track bullies.
Khawaja (38) should be pensioned off. Labuschagne (30) is hopelessly out of form. Smith (35) seems to be past it. Starc (34) is all over the shop innings to innings. Lyon (37) is not ever going to do a Warne and rip thru a team. Hazlewood (33) is good but he is no McGrath. Cummins (31) is inconsistent but generally good.
We miss Green but also need a genuine bowling all-rounder who can be our Flintoff, Pollock etc. I thought Cummins might turn into that but his batting is getting worse.
My opinion only and I am sure others will have different thoughts.
Have to agree with everything you've said Badger. Depressing but true. Also we can't continually bowl using the seam while the blokes from the Sub-Continent excell in that manner.
