10. Parramatta looked a shell of their former selves without Mitch Moses controlling play. Sticking with the Eels, why doesn’t Maika Sivo ever step? Jordan Rapana had so overcommitted in that final play that a simple step sees him score untouched.

Sydney Roosters vs Parramatta Eels
The Roosters have copped monster blows in the backs, with both Matt Ikuvalu and Billy Smith going down with injuries last week. Josh Morris will return after being dropped last week, while their roster is light on for backline depth given Joseph Sualii's injury. Adam Keighgran would seem to be the other player to come in.
It's understood Mitchell Moses is potentially set to return this week. If he does, it'll be a straight swap with Jakob Arthur. Marata Niukore will be missing with injury, likely to be replaced by Bryce Cartwright, although given how much middle third action he has seen, Wiremu Greig could also be an option.

The Roosters still have some class players with all the injuries. Raiders had nobody at all. I wonder if the flushing dimwit is still only concentrating on defense? Having a coach against having a flushing fool who calls himself a coach is a huge difference. Sivo maybe sees the ball on average 3 times a game from backline plays, way too little. The Eels have class players as well but are not used to there best except for maybe Gutho? Arthur hits back at Sterlo criticism as Moses nears return Brad Arthur has provided an update on when Mitchell Moses is expected to return from injury, while the Eels coach also questions Peter Sterling’s criticism of Parramatta’s attack LOL The flushing dunce Sterlo has given up on the Eels!!

Sterlo has finally discovered what you and me have known for years. The flushing mega disaster should listen to sterlo rather than criticize. I think Sterlo is a smarter man that the fool flushing disaster.
The crystal ball points to a very poor finish to the regular season and a one game one loss exit in the playoffs.

8. Brad Arthur (Eels)
Rd 18: 13th (up five spots)
Brad Arthur’s side have been cruising along all year in the top four, but their 10-12 loss to the Raiders has seen them drop to four points behind the third placed Rabbitohs, with the fifth placed Roosters hot on their heels two points back. With Mitchell Moses struggling with a back injury, the Eels’ attack has lost its way and they are now in danger of dropping out of the top four in the coming weeks. A clash with the Roosters this week will be vital for the Eels to prove they are still a premiership contender or whether it is another year of making up the numbers in the finals.
Facts hurt but the last sentence sums up the Eels.
