Panthers Park back then must have been like a 19th century remnant? Right know it is like an early 20th century remnant. I have never been to a SOO game either. Panthers Park is still a Park, never had a stadium. The Eels new ground is futuristic compared to many other grounds in Sydney. Obvious Eels are a popular and favoured club, but just can't win a premiership.

It could win a title if there were more smarts at the club. There are zero smarts in every direction.

And no front office has come along and been successful. Eels need to sign management that have already won. Eels don't even sign coaches that have won.

I am sure the front office are still proud of themselves for making the GF last season, even though the Eels were well and truly out of there depth in that game.
Having said that, with a good coach they seriously would have had a chance?

Having said that, with a good coach they seriously would have had a chance? With a good coach the defence would have been better. But from the kickoff they couldn't compete. Can't believe the Panthers wingers and fullbacks made more ground than the Eels forwards.

I can believe it. Unfortunately the Eels were well and truly out of there depth. The Panthers were strong in that grand final. They came to play football right from the start. Eels were questionable before kick-off. If both teams meet again this year, Eels would have a better chance but the same result would happen.

There is not a chance the Eels could win a title this year. Since there bye they have looked ordinary. Lucky to beat a sub-standard Titans who looked like the better team.

It's terrible that the Eels have a decent team with plenty of strike power but cannot play good footy every week. Can't make a grand final being inconsistent. At least Choker Smith got the best out of his players during the regular season, but I always thought their attack under him with the exception of 2001 was average.

With 2 of there players out for 4 weeks each, I am starting to wonder if they will make the playoffs, now. They have a hard draw to get to the playoffs and obviously that last bye didnt agree with them because they have gone off the boil. They were really looking good before the bye but they have never been able to put on an 80 min effort.

The Blues and their No1 supporter Phil Gould are complete failures. OK, I should also be a NSW fan but the Eels come first before Origin. In QLD it's probably the opposite, Maroons over Broncos. Can the Eels overcome Origin, poor form and being undisciplined?

I agree Eels come before SOO. I hated that Gutho was picked for that last game.
The Cowboys have come good and this will be a very hard game for the Eels to win even at full strength
