I thought Luke L wasn’t too bad. How far off is Taylan?

The guy hates losing to us and you can see he has tried to work the ref every time we play. He does it in most games but next level with us.
He is a sly bastard, he knows this ref will play the polite fake BS but probably not cop too much outright disrespect so he comes in trying to be reasonable, hand on the shoulder etc.... basically humiliates the ref with repetition but tries not to cross the line (saves that for da Silva). With the genuine morons he doesnt bother, he just yells at them until they crack or parra lose. Reminds me of the people at work who play office politics lol

He bombed a try but otherwise was outstanding.

Made no comments during the game tonight as I wanted to focus more closely. So now after time to digest it all, my thoughts are that resilience, fitness and a bit of luck were the key factors in our win.
Eels also had their fair share of luck with a few rulings and fortunate outcomes.
Similar to the Souths game we dominated large sections of this game but failed to score points when we really should have. This allowed the Eels to almost snatch a win.
Execution in A is fairly average and I believe will improve by mid season. Our ball movement oftens looks clunky and slow currently, with poor passing being the main cause. The ball is rarely out in front allowing the receiver to run onto it with pace. Our ptb speed is also often slow. Twal is the only starting middle running hard enough however our bench middles are making a big difference. Our edges are playing consistently well and this makes a massive improvement to our squad.
In D it’s obvious we have a real problem with our left side. Maka and LL are so out of their depth. Teams will start targeting them every week if we don’t make changes.
Finally, as much as he is a quality and valuable inclusion I say this every week, but AD is no halfback!

Thank god its a cherry on top and not a silver lining
Toa is trash
Probably grade 2, cops a week. Someone said it was his 2nd hip drop charge so maybe a 2nd week with loading.

It was high as the chin tap that Mitchy got to go ahead.

He should be happy, didn't he only get 10 seconds in the bin. 🤣
What a shame no-one told our guys it was ok to accidentally punch Moses in the face.

Hope he remedies the situation by doing heaps of goal kicking practice during the week, and TEARS HIS GROIN and IS OUT FOR THE SEASON.
Api facing 2 weeks, Luke 1 week based on match review of the game
