NRL: Brad Arthur speaks to the media after their round 5 loss to the Canberra Raiders.
Brown has been tasked with the halfback role in Moses’s absence, but the Eels attack has lacked plenty of spark and direction in the side’s two losses against the Tigers and Raiders.The only place to watch every game of every round LIVE with no ad-breaks during play is Fox League , available on Kayo. New to Kayo?When asked to summarise the horror night , Arthur said his side was simply outplayed, but didn’t think a lack of effort was the issue.
“We were outplayed. Too many moments either side of the ball whether it be in attack or defence where we just lacked consistency,” Arthur said. We just have to be better with those fundamentals and being consistent with them. From there we drop our head and it snowballs out of control. “41 points I know isn’t great. But I don’t think it was effort-based or soft. I thought it was around the big moments which we didn’t nail.”Fox League’s Niko Pajarillo then put to Arthur if there was any temptation to pick rookie halfback Ethan Sanders in order to move Brown back to his natural position of five-eighth.“He kicked well, he ran well, he scrambled well. Like I said, when you have everyone across the board not owning their fundamentals, that does put pressure on Dylan.
Eels legend Nathan Hindmarsh thinks Brown is more than capable of wearing the No. 7 jersey, but says the talented 23-year-old needs to play to his strengths.“He’s a better ball runner than a organiser so put the ball in your hand and run. Do it more.”
