He\u2019s done everything in the game except win a premiership and based on what we\u2019ve seen this year, I can\u2019t see the Eels winning a premiership in the next few years,\u201d The Daily Telegraph\u2019s Dean Ritchie replied.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s no suggestion at all that he\u2019s unsettled, it\u2019s just more of he seems a bit on unsettled on the field.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMitch is one of the great halves of this generation and the way it\u2019s going, there\u2019s a chance he finishes his career not winning a title,\u201d veteran journalist Brent Read added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe has time on his side but he\u2019s 29. He\u2019s going to have to get a wriggle on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ryles &#8220;Not gonna blame injuries&#8221; | 05:27<\/p>\n<p>In their defence, the Eels have had a tough schedule to open the season as well as a horror injury toll to try and overcome.<\/p>\n<p>Two players are set to miss the rest of the year (J\u2019maine Hopgood, Bailey Simonsson) while stars like Isaiah Iongi and Jonah Pezet in key positions will be sidelined between four to eight weeks. <\/p>\n<p>For those reasons, Anasta defended the Eels\u2019 2-4 start and believing coach Jason Ryles will be able to turn things around. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think within 12-18 months they\u2019ll be where they want to be. I wouldn\u2019t be giving up on them right now,\u201d Anasta said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think Rylesy is a great coach and I still have promise for them. Obviously this year will be hard now and they still have these long-term injuries so they\u2019re behind the eight ball this season but don\u2019t give up on them.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"There are concerns that star half Mitch Moses could become \u201cunsettled\u201d at the Eels amid the club\u2019s early&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":137020,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[197046,197047,37215,175248,2647,197048,83318,159452,62755,111,139,69,115882,197049,213],"class_list":{"0":"post-378370","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-sports","8":"tag-concerns-mitch-moses","9":"tag-controversial-ratchet-clauses","10":"tag-daily-telegraph","11":"tag-dean-ritchie","12":"tag-fox-league","13":"tag-heavy-loss","14":"tag-horror-injury","15":"tag-jmaine","16":"tag-jason-ryles","17":"tag-new-zealand","18":"tag-newzealand","19":"tag-nz","20":"tag-parramatta-eels","21":"tag-season-struggles","22":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/378370","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=378370"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/378370\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/137020"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=378370"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=378370"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=378370"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
