Week 2 Finals: Parra v Penrith GAME DAY THREAD @ Mackay 18/9/21

[Joshuatheeel]

This, the Papa high hit and the strip on Gutho at the corner. Like f**ken seriously? How do they think Waqa ended up with the ball?

And in the last 10 or so, Blake earned a quick play the ball got absolutely murdered!! Ref game nothing!!

ref was garbage!!

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Anyone know where to play set restarts?

 

[Happy MEel]

I

The trainers are allowed to request play to stop for injury but how do they call for play to stop when they haven't reached the injured player.is beyond me.

Interestingly, the trainer wasn’t even on the field. The trainer close to the player who we all thought called it, was one of ours.

 

[Eelogical]

Complain about Stone, but this is the turning points should have been either a penalty to level up or a binning….

Moses taken out, Will tackle without the ball.


The ref was garbage

We had our chances, just like them. Time to move on. I'd say that the Panthers won't go any further after that win. They look like shot ducks ( and to be honest, we would be too after that encounter).

Play cartwright there has good enough hands to be a link player. Defensively he had fixed up his attitude

Too erratic for mine.he hogs it and noone knows what he is doing, even his team mates.

He's OK roving but not play that middle half role

 

[Happy MEel]

G

That’s an option. Not sure Nrown will be next season. Gets dominated

Gets dominated, gives away penalties, slows momentum. Sure he has an outstanding game in him but he’s just too erratic for the coin we’re paying him.

Yes we did, but panthers got more opportunities and yet only won my 2….

it was disgraceful!! So many decisions went against us.

 

[84 Baby]

The one thing that did change for me tonight usually in a second half like that I’d have that feeling that inevitably we’d crack and concede. That was slightly changed in me willing them to get the ball back and score

I think Klein said the trainer called the stoppage to the touchy

Oh the one where Korisau was sleeping on his feet and Klein told Waqa he has to get to his feet to earn the penalty?

 

[hybrideel]

We played like Lions but oh well that's the game. Unfortunately, We lack an x factor, a game breaker.

You can't win without an attack. As it is we were very lucky so many of Penriths tries were taken off.

It could have easily been 18-6.

It wasn't luck that got Penrith's tries taken off them, it was a player being offside for 1 and a defender getting taken out for the other. How exactly were we lucky that they weren't given?

 

[Gherkin]

Good effort boys. Few missed opportunities and a few very average calls, but did us proud. Hopefully a few of the young fellas lift over the pre season

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Anyhow proud of the team, great effort!!

can’t ask for more !! They gave 100%

 

[Wally21]

I assume sorenson couldnt come back? Failed hia?

What a faaarking joke.that lollipoper trainer for Penf**kingruffff was all over the place. f**king joke

 

[Rocket man]

Parra played really well tonight and were maybe a bit unlucky, but the referee didn’t cost them the game. Learn not to tackle around the head and you wouldn’t have the problem.
Bad decisions from both the ref and bunker cost both teams.

What bad calls did the Panthers receive?

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Oh the one where Korisau was sleeping on his feet and Klein told Waqa he has to get to his feet to earn the penalty?

Not exactly sure who, but was 35 out or so from our line…….

 

[Kornstar]

Obviously no one can be happy after a loss but that is the exact way i want my team to play in a semi final against the best sides.

There was no embarrassment, it was all effort and heart and they left everything on the field can you really ask for more short if a victory.

Forget round 25 but we pushed them twice this year and lost by 3 points in 2 matches and the team they play next week we beat them twice this year.

With the exception of the lull while Moses was injured our season was pretty good we just need to clean that up and we’ll be right there in the top 4.

 

[Wally21]

I agree. I was surprised when he started with us on the edge, as he was close to elite with the Tigers at lock. He’s a shit load better than Brown.

This!!!!
