Rd19: Parra v Raiders @ CBUS stadium GAME DAY THREAD 22/7/21

Will p made some mistakes but he reminds me of a young jennings

 

[Gronk]

But but but but we chased the collision and front loaded our effort areas…………

 

[Eelogical]

I know I’m falling into the trap of catastrophising after a loss, but honestly, what was the f**king game plan? Did we have one??? They were offside all night, lay all over us all night and got the rub of the green. But a well coached side would have found a way to deal with that. Terrible f**king effort and terrible coaching. Arthur got out coached by the biggest merkin in league

We got beat by a better team on the night. I didn't think we were bad, they just played better. Give the raiders credit.

 

[PARRA_FAN]

The attack was certainly way off. No real game plan, the passes from dummy half were going to ground. Definitely missed Moses out there.

 

[Wally21]

Reading this place implode after a loss is verrrry exciting. It was a brilliant game of footy. We probably should’ve been in front in the first half and didn’t pack it in when they went 12-0 up. Could’ve and perhaps should’ve won it in the end. Roll on next week, we go again.

I must of been watching a different game.

 

[Angry_eel]

What a shit game, despite the loss. Sorry I don't enjoy these Defensive wrestles.

Well, it has to be said right, Moses plays we probably win. For all those who hate him, here's your answer.

 

[mxlegend99]

Pretty amazing the Raiders beat a top 4 team with only 38% of the ball and a clear no try awarded as a try against them.

Where the f**k is this effort each week?

 

[Jake the snake]

Like so many times before, we thought we just needed to turn up and beat a team under strength and not in great form.

It’s what we do!!

It kills me. All a team has to do is lift and we are gone

 

[strider]

That reminded me alot of the St George game, onlywe hung in there a bit better.

The opposition was keen as f**k .... seemingly incredible line speed and ruck domination (almost too good to be true)

But its only illegal if you get pinged .... i think thats the gameplan for beating us. We need to come up with some options against defensive lines that get a headstart. Few passes wide each ruckmaybe

 

[lucablight]

We have such an outstanding pack and it’s really sad that we can’t take advantage of that by converting on the scoreboard. There’s no reason why we shouldn’t have won well with 62% of the possession. This isn’t an isolated issue for just this game. It has been an underlying issue in the teams attacking structures for a while now. It’s why we rely so heavily on scoring off kicks since we can’t seem to create.

 

[Gronk]

The other Top 6 sides won't give us the room in the ruck either when it matters.

We're too one dimensional and have too many other deficiencies for mine to really challenge.

You are really not giving the Raiders enough credit. We have played all the top 6 sides and NONE have come at us with that kind of energy.

 

[hineyrulz]

Will p made some mistakes but he reminds me of a young jennings

He was much better than Wanker Blake who once again offered absolutely zero. He’s not a centre’s arsehole, actually he’s not a footballers arsehole.

 

[Wally21]

We got beat by a better team on the night. I didn't think we were bad, they just played better. Give the raiders credit.

I don’t disagree with you. My beef is that we didn’t fire a shot in anger. What was the game plan and more importantly, how did we adjust at half time??

 

[hindy111]

I think we've seen all year that if you stop our power game then you stop us overall.

Raiders were strong, but we really should've had enough to get the job done. There are far too many concerning signs. It reminds me of 2020.

Even when Moses does play, we score all our tries from plucky kicks or through pure individual brilliance. Our structured attack and team worked plays are a disgrace.

In the end there was only a goal kick in it, but Sivo probably should've scored there, but we had enough chances to win but couldn't rise to the challenge.

Moses being out is just going to mask the many deficiencies that this team has, and will continue to have, for the foreseeable future.

Outcoached

 

[Angry_eel]

We just cannot play against strong and up in the face defences can we? This is pretty much how Manly beat us.

 

[Parra Cheeses]

I

I guess technically that tackle wasn't illegal but if Sivo got lower he would have copped a knee to the head at full pace

If he got lower he probably scores

 

[baselinepanther]

The commentary is awfully biased, coupled with Perenara in the bunker, we get nothing. That was a penalty try 9 times out of 10 , then it goes to Henry for a crucial decision, and we take it unlubricated.

a penalty try ?

lol
you're an idiot , there was absolutely nothing wrong with the hip contact on sivo
it hit sivo.... on his hip
not his head ,
it wasn't a shoulder & you only have to wrap arms in a tackle when leading with the shoulder
not the hip...
so it was perfectly legal

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Also on Penisini he made 155 m second most from our backs only just behind Fergo (162m)

 

[Hindmarshisgod2]

I've said it time and time again....we will never win anything under Bushy.

This is the most predictable attacking team I have ever witnessed in my lifetime of following rugby league.

 

[hindy111]

We are just a power game team.

Even last week, it was against 12 when we hit our straps but once the numbers evened up, we were stuffed.

We don't do any plays like the bunnies, Panthers or storm do so we're goneskies

I said this months ago. Only way we win comp is pick our best defensive 17. Grind, niggle,kick chase. Hope we get some luck and score off a bomb. It won't be pretty to watch.
