Fainu holding when he should have spread and Smith rocketing the ball over the sideline on last about sums up the halves at the club

Saukuru with another great run. Boyling runs a great line. First real attacking opportunity. Rua with a bludger of a pass from DH. Finally a penalty

Saukuru and Ogden with some strong runs. Reilly doing well, defused more kicks than Laurie. Boyling and Mansfield solid contact on the edges too. Eels continue to pepper our goal line. 4-0 Parra after 30 mins

Possession 79/21 in Eels favour and most of that in the red zone. Laurie LB and chased down by Rankin. Full set of six. Thrown into touch after 6 more on the zero. Classic

What is this refereeing? Seriously

Loose carry…borderline. 4-0 after 20 mins. Eels hugely dominating possession and territory and lucky to only trail by 4

Line ball let go by refs which would’ve gifted our first attacking opportunity. Hill LB into forced passed error Cini counterattack and Eels in good territory. Pies penalty to relieve pressure again

Seyfarth with a dumb penalty, eels gifted good territory. Pinball episode after Eels poor kick, ref says Pies knock on. Another 50/50 against us. Eels error releases pressure gauge.

I.Ogden penalised. Arthur in virtually untouched. Soft defence couldn’t keep up with parras ruck speed at the line. Conversion missed by our boy Rankin. Eels up 4-0, 10 mins in

Laurie early error on bomb. Teams defends Parras quite poor attack. 0-0 after 5 mins

3. Blore 2. Bateman 1. Simpkin Thought Staines and Tupou were ok

Forwards aren’t the problem. Hard for them to have energy when they are tackling all night courtesy of balls booted dead, forward passes galore, cheap possession turnovers. We would have won a few games if we had the 1,6,7 to back up our big boys. We get into good territory and it’s a game of...

Signing Suggestions… Release AD and Brooks asap. Surely we can arrange something. Would rather play Bateman and Koro in the halves. Primary Targets: George Williams Aiden Sezer Secondary Targets: Mitchell Pearce Braydon Trindall Jonah Pezet Other Targets: Luke Metcalf Toby Sexton Niwhai Puru

Would like to see Simpkin back in the top team soon. Thought he looked good earlier this year before getting murderer by Saifiti. Realistically across this season I think the team have done their individual roles okay but the cohesion and polish is lacking. Cohesion will come with time...

3 Bateman 2 Tupou 1 Koro HM - AJ

Missed the second half but this is classic Brooks. He is quick on his feet and can do good things. However, over the years nearly every time we make a line break, he backs up the next play with a bone dead decision. The one that comes to mind that every team nails regularly except us is the...

Talau & Klemmer vs Hastings 😮

iPap over on right now

Thought Simpkin did okay. Forwards weren’t really the problem. We made easy yards but couldn’t capitalise and convert chances into points. Ice and Koro quiet club debuts. Dominated most the stats, albeit making plenty of errors and not taking chances killing us. Composure and direction...

Asu one of our strongest in the first trial and Talau one of the weakest. Mind boggling that Sheens and co rage Talau so high. Maybe one day but Asu and even Toa unlucky not to be given a shot with Talau starting. Hopefully they all get some minutes
