    Tom Turbo .. interesting if true

    I’d heard about 4-5 years ago that DCE and Jake/Tom didn’t speak for a year. Thought that had been pretty well mended but may be down the slippery slope again

    Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good

    Heard Gus Gould running through how many players have been used for each club, we were just below the average on 25 players used. The best was 23 (Raiders) and the worst was 31 (Eels). Think the Dogs were at 28 paluerd and the Chooks were up around there too What a record Seibold has the...

    Passion for the club

    Don’t really understand why both of those can’t be true ? Hodgson, Whitehead, Bateman, Nicholl-Klokstad etc were mainly unheralded signings, but they performed extremely well for them and got them to within a Ben Cummins special of winning that elusive premiership in 2019. Overall you look at...

    Passion for the club

    Correct, but over those 12 years, how many times have you looked at a Raiders squad and thought “these guys should be up there challenging”, most years I look at them and think bottom 4, and most years have punched above their weight. It’s a squad that’s always been bereft of genuine game...

    Passion for the club

    The thing with him though is even if they are having a bad year, he is consistent and you still see what’s inside of him coming through on the sidelines and in press conferences. Makes tough decisions, has fallen out with players like Tapine and Horsburgh, but is man enough to find ways to get...

    Passion for the club

    Last weekend I watched Ricky Stuart almost in tears on the sidelines watching Papalii do his stuff at the end, and then how highly he spoke of him in the press conference. At first I thought it was cringe worthy how he was on the sideline, but on reflection, the passion he has for the Raiders...

    Im trying here

    Feel ya, I have a 7 year old who winds down the car windows and yells out “Up the Wahs” as we drive through mall car parks. He had Fisher-Harris come to his training a few weeks back, and he met Shaun Johnson too

    Tom Trbojevic was a Legend

    People forget Olakau’atu is on big money as well, his consistency isn’t great at the moment, and the Eels rookie backrower overshadowed him big time last night

    Tom Trbojevic was a Legend

    Did people expect him to take 3 hits up a set, jump into first or second receiver for the other 2 plays then put up the kick and chase through and catch it himself ? It’s wild that people expect him to have a top level performance, let alone dominate a game, behind a non existent pack and...

    Waddell - a pleasant surprise

    We were forced a couple of times last season to use him in the middle of the field, and I actually thought he made a pretty decent fist of things and was handy in that role. How the hell we are now back to a point where we are starting him on an edge I don’t know

    Post-Game Discussion Eels V Manly [Round 12, 2025]

    In an absolute **** show of a game, I will pull out Garrick for his defensive effort, thought he was extremely good. Tevaga always visibly puts in as well. There was also 1 particular play in the game I loved for heart and effort in a game where those 2 factors were largely missing, and it was...

    Post-Game Discussion Eels V Manly [Round 12, 2025]

    A new coach can certainly make a difference, if you get the right one. I don’t put it down to the players and needing to sack them all, the squad needs some strengthening, but overall it isn’t a terrible squad Our game plan is absolutely awful, we can slate the forwards most weeks, but we play...

    Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good

    I’m pretty much done with watching Manly while Seibold is coach The enjoyment is gone, the game plan is ****, and he puts guys like Lodge out there. I’ll keep an eye on it but for the first time in 30 odd years I won’t be going out of my way to watch every week
