Fucking disgusting performance. When you fucking lead 12-0 at 12 minutes, you fucking go on with it, not get cocky and become a team of dumbshits.

Just did the ladder predictor. We can actually miss the 8 altogether.

Talk about going overboard. Ya's weren't that bad. Eels played aswell as they could. Completed about 90%. Just need to keep playing. 2 easy tries probably the worst thing could have happened
 
Lmao don't worry we get to see Melbourne win the comp and hear about how good Smith, Slater, and Cronk are for the next year and a half (it's already started). They deserve it for systematically ruining the game over the past ten years!
 
Milf and Hunt were very disappointing. Game was there to be won but neither looked to get involved. Counting the days down until Hunt is gone to be honest. He is a shadow of the player he was in 2015.

Milf not far behind him. Needs to get involved. Went totally missing in that second half. Didn't even look like firing a shot.

We aren't winning the premiership this year. In fact I don't think we win another until we get serious about the wrestle. Like it or not it's a huge part of the game and being philosophically opposed to it or whatever the club is is just complete bullshit. Every time Parra had the ball they were on a roll. Every week we concede massive metres. Every week we come up against better wrestlers that are able to pin us down for longer. We are fighting a losing battle with this one.

Fair call.
 
Milford needs to pull his fucking head put, he's always yelling at Moga and Pearson. Yet the **** just gives hospital balls all night. Run you fat ****.
 
We aren't a top 4 team right now. The players don't want it. They just don't.

Matter of fact, honestly? We aren't premiership contenders. Especially now without McCullough.

This was the game to stamp our authority and cement that top 4 spot and after 10 minutes and leading 12-0, we were well on our way. What happened? We don't have the hunger or desire to play for 80 minutes but it all boils down to the fact that we aren't a mentally strong club. Season is over boys n girls. It was fun while it lasted.
 
Dumb, dumb, dumb..............we got sucked into the niggle and then went back to bashing it up the middle, mix that with some random penalties by the refs and the eels holding us down in the tackle meant we let slip away the game that we should have won.

We are really missing a cool headed leader on the field to guide us around.

Milford needs to stand up, he reckons that he is worth the dollars then its about fricken time he earns them.
 
We need to take another look at those social media interactions between the players, I think. Something smells in this footy side

Quality game of football and Accept is right, the Eels showed the Broncos where they have to be as a footy side. We've all seen flashes of brilliance from the Broncos, but when the game gets into the wrestle, the Broncos get overwhelmed fairly easily. It's a good thing it happened now rather than later but the loss of McCullough could really throw a spanner into the Broncos season. Not necessarily because of what he provides with ball in hand, but his defence in the middle which is among the best in the league and he's head and shoulders above anyone else in this squad.

The Eels were on fire and they can't expect to get away with some of the plays they did tonight. A couple of moments could have really backfired, unfortunately the Broncos weren't switched on.

I felt bad for Pearson tonight, that was a tough performance to watch and it will be very interesting to see how he responds.

The Eels knew what they were doing. They are a well coached side. They played to a plan, they played for each, running from depth and with Norman and Moses playing a similar smart, structured play to that of Cronk and Munster.

They controlled the middle and the edges. Our halves did **** all.

We play opportunistic flat and boring. The Broncos are a poorly coached side, and blaming any 1 player misses the whole point of tonight's dreadful performance

Yeah true that. We need Krav Maga, BJJ, Freestyle, and Graeco Roman coaches on staff, maybe call up Smith as a consultant when he retires. There will probably be a crackdown on wrestling, which will finally last longer than two weeks, after the Storm trio retire tho.
 
Enough with the blaming the refs rubbish, we dropped the balls. We missed the tackles. We lost convinisngly. We've had our fair sharemarkets of calls of our way this year so deal with it.

As for the game, it just wasn't our night we were far from our best. Might be the wake up call we needed after a few soft weeks. I'm sure there will be some soul searching tonight after that.

Maybe if some **** could actually give him an offload when he's supporting. We don't play to our strengths - we play to what Wayne wants our strengths to be.
