Rd 3 2024: Parra v Manly GAME DAY thread @ Commbank Stadium March 24th

[hindy111]

Club sets the prices for the tickets are you saying they have got it wrong with the prices.

I am paid up season ticket holder so i dont know what the prices are for a 1 off game.

But today should have got more then 20k either the club charged too much or a shit load of parra fans didnt bother.

The club should be asking questions it should have got 25k at a minimum

I watched on TV. f**k the crowds and shouting

My old man died yesterday and he was the maddest keenest Parra fan you could meet (except for that bloke with all the Eels merch in his mum's shed). No way was Manly going to beat us today.

My sincere apologies for your loss mate. I hope you and your family are doing ok

I saw Nrown squirt his water bottle onto Murph when they walking past each other on the bench when Nrown came off in the 2nd half.

Murph was giggling as he kept walking.

Clearly still some respect there.

Surely a euphemism

When Matto came off, NBrown was walking along sideline waiting to come on.
Matto gave him a little push, they both laughed

That's the worst thing I have heard in my life.

Who the hell came up with that crap should be fired .....

It was a phrase said by Dennis "Big D" Anderson. I'm glad they're honouring his legacy and impact on the club, but they don't need to turn it into a chant. The way they did it last year was good, just flash it across the screens when Parra is actually in the tunnel to run out not 5 minutes before anything happens.

Ah ok thanks yeah not the best idea no one gets behind it...

What happened to Jonny English's song parra power to win.

They have punted it since we moved to commbank and i reckon thats one of the best tunes going around.

Agreed, get rid of the Enter Sandman remix crap.

They kept repeating the audio and the bloke over the PA kept saying it, it was just embarrassing and annoying.

Well that win was tighter than it needed to be, but we will take it.

For all those blaming Harper, how can you defend 3 on 1 everytime? It's up to BA and Antonelli to fix it stat! I feel Lane is a big part in us falling short in defence. Hopefully he can regain that 2022 form asap.

Paulo, Matto and even Moretti and Kelma helped turn up the heat to get over the top of them. We haven't played anywhere near our best yet, but we need to keep racking up the wins.

I think we have to go back to Simmo and Sivo next week, even if just for the added pace. Blaize did well on debut but he just physically isn't ready for back to back games yet.

I wrote nothing about pricing policy. I simply mentioned that as the most expensive venue it may detract from attendance numbers. I would also question the objective of the pricing policy. Is it set to maximise profit or maximise attendance. The numbers would be carefully chosen. As an example, it is more profitable to half fill a stadium at $100 per ticket than to fill it at $40 per ticket.

The cheapest adult tickets are $30.

The view on the screen at the pub is superior to the $30 tickets. You're kidding yourself if you think ticket price doesn't matter.

 

[JokerEel]

If BA doesn't have any faith in Dunster or Lume lume to come in and play wing in first grade stop playing them in CUP move them to the RMC team.

Harper has never played on the wing and for some reason had to play there for the first time today.. You need a backup winger who you are going to play...

It took a few seasons for Russell and Penisini to get their defense set

The whole north and south ends are $30. Watching footy from behind the goal posts is actually the best way to see the spacing and plays forming.

 

[JokerEel]

Crowd should have been 25k there is nothing like sitting in the crowd cheering the Eels on at Commbank .....

Atmosphere is amazing it may have been hot as balls but give me that to sitting at home or a pub

 

[JokerEel]

Ben and Jake ran for 37 and 46 meters...

Elite my ass Turbo ain't winning a competition with this bunch of plodders in the team...

Good mate, you can watch it there if you like. I'll go the pub.

I'll take it you have never been to Commbank...

May he RIP brother.

My condolences to you and your family. I wish you all the best.
