Sea Eagles Elimination Game 2025 (pre-season forum game)

[eaglebuzz]

We could save a lot of time by just trimming this list down to Turbo (who will win), DCE, and Olakau'atu. The idea is novel but the end of this process is already locked in.

Interesting perspective here from us supporters. Says we don't rate 13 members of our 30 squad (8 eliminated and another 5 rated 3 or less). That says we don't have a lot confidence in the players beyond our 17. That's scary with a full season ahead of us!!

I see it as basically a popularity contest as we’re voting for favourite players rather than an assessment of playing ability. For example Sips as a big personality and a real character. I give him votes as I like the bloke, but he’s outside my top 17 at the moment.

Got it. So we like 17 and don't like the other 13. Assuming we don't know the players personally, then can only rate like or dislike based on what we have seen on the football field or in the press. Still does not inspire confidence does it??.

and some players we haven't seen play yet so its a bit random .... for fun
