PENALTY TITANS: The dropout is intended to go short... which it does but someone needs to tell the Eels that it needs to stay inside those white lines because it's out on the full

41min

What a kick... what a chase... what a hit... Torpedo bomb from Toby Brimson and then a great chase from Patrick Herbert and then a great hit on Tom Opacic
