[Mark from Brisbane]

eels wont win a premiership if they cant beat the crap teams.

Good!!

Ok so $5 may have been a bit of a stretch but $3.25 is still pretty long in a 2 horse race.

Be interesting to see if anyone's keen at the $3.25.

Do we know if brown is suspended?

The NRL sure do have the “ playing favourites “ game down on pat don’t they ??

 

[Shoe1]

Who can predict?

Will it be the parra that recently lost 35-0 to the cowboys? Or the manly that went down 38-0 to the broncos?

Both teams are hot and cold.

The great “ will Seggy get a run “ debate

So beat Parra by 43 and we go above them on the table.

I shall accept nothing less.....

 

[skeagle]

I reckon seggy will be named in the reserves and then maybe come in later in the week but not sure who for

Won’t happen but I’d love to see Walker start. He’s one of our best players and should be on the field for longer than he is. Start him at 13 or in the centres, somewhere.

Both dce and turbo didn’t train today due to having cork injuries.

clubs says both are ok for Friday.

Underdogs suits Manly a lot better. I expect once we catch the ball from the kickoff all the players will again be filled with confidence and belief. Eels are a strong side across the park but their weakness is they can be a bit one dimensional. Moses won't relish running down Haumole's edge.

He must’ve won back the dressing room. Phew

 

[Rackets]

"I’d like to put on some hits. We’ll see how it goes but games like this, I do take it personal”. Hope those hits are on Moses and Gutho

 

[Waz13]

Really need to get Schu back for this game. Schu on the left, Guac on the right, turbo swinging round both sides with the big boppers matching it in the middle, we can win this bloody game! Still believe if we can get guys back in the park, keep ‘em there and stay healthy, we’ll still be a show in this comp.
