PRE-GAME Finals Week 1 - Eels vs Broncos

[broncsgoat]

This playing a centre on the bench in case of injury shit really needs to stop. Fifita could COMFORTABLY shift to centre if there was an outside back injury, just play Segeyaro + 3 forwards on the bench, wtf.

Like Murray did for Souths.

 

[NSW stables]

How does Shibaski keep getting picked in this team? He's worse than Isaako.

And if Fifita gets hurt?
Glenn could do that but he’s already there. It’s fine, it is what it is and we need to back them, it’s what we got at the minute. We made the finals, be happy but above all be proud.

 

[BroncsFan]

The only thing I don’t quite get is that he has a centre on the bench and second rower playing centre. I get that Glenn is probably better than most our actual centres but it still does my head in thinking about it.

I'd say it's to cover if a second rower went down... say Gillett got injured they could move Glenn into 2nd row and bring the center on

Slater interviewing Boyd, oh boy this guy really wants the season over.

[Super Freak]

I imagine this is just going to be like the 2007 season where just making the finals was the ultimate goal and once we did we just mentally shut down.

How the **** did you get THAT out of the interview?

Darius just looks so uninterested and out of place.
It gives me zero confidence, no wonder when times get tough and the boys look to our "leader" we just drop another cog.

 

[_wwong]

Our lord and saviour shibasaki is here to win us the game

 

[McHunt]

Quit pulling your *****, and pay attention. This is our spine. It’s not going to change:

9: Macca, Segy
7: Turpin
6: Boyd
1: Milford

Call me Mystic McHunt.

 

[tommy]

Did he actually just give our gameplan away? Milford will be running off the big blokes? Still holding onto those testicles for dear life too.

Well done. What are your other predictions, oh great one? The sun will rise tomorrow? Water will continue to be wet?

Blind pride and love for this team when it doesn't deserve either is odd for mine. I'm not proud of them, they have underachieved all year, most haven't played to a standard worthy of their wage, or an NRL contract. I will back them, but I have no problem calling a spade a spade and saying the named team is dud.

Eels 30+

 

[Locky888]

Shibasaki and Isaako don't gel well together in defence. Isaako doesn't trust Shibasaki and is prone to come in to cover Shibasaki's opponent leaving a hole for the opposing winger to run through.

 

[pagey]

Well done. What are your other predictions, oh great one? The sun will rise tomorrow? Water will continue to be wet?

And Broncos to get belted

 

[GCBRONCO]

How the **** did you get THAT out of the interview?

Because you could see it in the NRL photo of the captains with the trophy and in that interview his body language is much the same combined with the manner he spoke in. Much the same as it has been for the season. The hunger isn't there and that is alarming enough for a player, it's even worse for your captain.
