WEEK THREE - Melbourne 26 Parramatta 10 @ Telstra Dome

[mickdo]

No, cause it wasa legit try

Yeah, who needs control of the ball these days...

 

[Eelectrica]

Congrats Melbourne too good for us - no excuses.
Good luck next week, hope you beat Manly in the big one.

I'm proud of our guys, I think we pushed you, but you guys executed better at the critical momements.

No, cause it wasa legit try

So was Inu's

 

[Dragon]

Well the NRL got what they wanted, I hope they're happy.

Agreed. The 50/50 calls all went the storms way. Talk about the return of the grapple tackle, but then i suppose its Jason Ryles' fault. Good luck Manly, sick of interstate scum.

 

[leaguerules]

good effort by eels

But the storm deserve their GF spot even today they didnt play at their best but still a bit too good. The storm struggle when they try to play conservetly

Fulltime: 26-10 Storm, shame though the score didn't indicate how close this game actually was.

 

[Scorpio30]

Whats all this Inu was in sh*t!?...And Gould just STFU!

 

[Mr Saab]

So was Inu's

No, his foot was out. It was 1/10 of a second thing between the ball going down and his foot out, but he was out.
You are brainwashed by Gus Gould

 

[Dragonsforthewin]

what a rubbish game.

 

[Eelectrica]

Inu was just out by millimetres on both efforts. So near, yet so far.

 

[Frederick]

So was Inu's

So having a foot on the sideline doesn't mean you're out of play? Wow, someone better inform the NRL of the grave mistake they made in interpreting their own rules

:roll:

...and now I have no choice but to support Manly #-o

 

[Dave Q]

The storm into the grand final with bells on.

Archer had a poor game and deserves to be in the Panther juniors next week.

Ahh, the heartbreak that is rugby league!!

 

[Shorty]

...and now I have no choice but to support Manly

LOL.
I know it sucks doesn't it!

 

[pantherz9103]

Storm too strong in the end. Fully deserved to be there despite a genuine tough contest by the Eels. 26-10 was a bit harsh on the Eels tbh. Smith and Cronk imo were the difference compared with a pretty average game by Tim Smith.

Storm to win next week as they'll bounce back from losing last years GF while it will be a new experience to alot of the Sea Eagles.

 

[pantherz9103]

No, his foot was out. It was 1/10 of a second thing between the ball going down and his foot out, but he was out.

I Agree. Maybe one day we'll have the option of muting certain commentators and a Gould free zone.

 

[Matt23]

LOL.
I know it sucks doesn't it!

It sucks almost as much as 2004#-o

Inu's no try, the frame before the ball goes down, and the next frame. You'd have to say try.

But the other angle, looks more like no try.

[Apey]

Inu was definitely out, however, I didn't think the last Storm try should have been awarded lol... looked like he dropped it to me.

I know they won, but I hope Storm improve again for the Grand Final, they're winning but still don't seem at their best

 

[Hass]

what a rubbish game.

I must have been watching a different game.

It was a high quality affair with plenty of drama and the result was in doubt until about 5 minutes to go.

I'll take that any day thankyou very much.
