Round 9 - Eels V Knights - Friday 28 April 6:00pm - ComBank Stadium

[JOJO82]

Having a week off will definitely help us. A heap of guys carrying niggling injuries, getting a fit Elliot back which hopefully means we’ll get the bench right.

No reason we can’t go back to playing the type of football we did for the first 7 weeks. A could have wins and we’re in the 8 again.

Ponga is in the side, enough reason.

If Elliott returns and we use him at hooker to spell Crosslands he won’t play lots of minutes in any position having missed nearly all the season so far. Maybe start him at 9 get what we can out of him and then rest him for a bit

Seems like most of the boys have jetted off for holidays..Best is already in Bali.

Most of them must have been on holiday mode prior to the Friday game.

Yeah, and that's not a blight on them. But I've been in both situations leading in to holidays. On one hand, the cruisy fridee arvo, laughing and chatting with mates and already on the wind down. Or finishing a major project, head down, bum up doing as much as you can before the holiday starts. I'm critical of the environment that was created for the team before the game the other night. I acknowledge that Obi's mind could have been elsewhere with good reason last week too.

I'm going to Bali in a few weeks too, I'll take the Knights approach to work and check out a few weeks early lol.

I’ve been taking the Knights approach at work for the last 5 years.

Dom's hair is well above the collar, Sivo grabbed a handful of hair....but no doubt annesley the flop will spin some crap.

The bunker is even worse...can't they see what we all saw

Funny thing about this is Sivo is my neighbor and I had a chat with him about the game the next day.....had a cheeky go at him about the hair pull and he said it was obviously an accident but he grabbed no jersey and was all hair.

Yeah - that was pretty obvious...both the fact it was an accident (It doesn't appear to be in Mika's character to do something like that) and the fact that NO jumper was actually grasped, unlike Tyson's tackle on Luai?!
