08 :: R18 Sat :: Rabbitohs 32 Eels 20 @ ANZ

[Carlito]

Great result for Souths, if they can make the 8 it looks like they might be able to do some damage. Just a shame about their start to the season otherwise they'd probably be up there with the Titans/Roosters/Sharks etc near the top of the table.

Well played Souffs. Too much heart, too much class in the seven and too much grunt up front for our bunch of misfits. For us, Hayne was shocking and should partner Mr Grothe for the Maggies next week. Finch, as usual, stunted our attack and made errors in attack and defence that killed us, and the mind boggling decision to replace a front rower with a backrower who has proven he's not up to it didn't pay off in any way....not happy. 10-0 up, we should have won. Mateo was our only saving grace.

 

[Eelectrica]

you guys need the good luck.

Why? We'll only find a way to screw it up and turn it into bad luck.

 

[Ice777]

the nrl this season is pretty much decided by the refs and video refs

Credit where it's due. A big reason you lost that football game is because your team is a very average one at this point in time. The writing was on the wall a few weeks ago against the Storms reserve grade side and you can only blame the refs for a win in that one ;-)

 

[Agent Mulder]

Mateo Eels?

 

[bileduct]

What a terrible video refereeing decision for Souths first try.

That's disgraceful.

 

[wittyfan]

Sandow's golden touch continues for Souths!

Eels played without strategy of spirit as per usual.

 

[bileduct]

You've got to be kidding me.

Souths second try was clearly a knock on.

The video ref has got to go.

 

[mxlegend99]

Eels deserve some calls going against them. They've had more then their fair share of luck this season.

Although i tipped the Eels and was hoping they'd win. My tips this weekend are pathetic... 2 out of 5.

You've got to be kidding me.

Souths second try was clearly a knock on.

The video ref has got to go.

Didnt see the start of the game but I could of sworn the last pass to Hegarty for Souths last try was a metre forward as well.

Sandow's a good little player but im hoping he gives away the staying down for penalties game.
He threw himself to the ground last week in the dying seconds unsuccessfully trying to milk a penalty and tonight with 20mins left he got what amounted to nothing much more than a slap on the face from Hindmarsh yet stayed motionless on the turf like he'd been run over by a fleet of 4wds.
The second the replay went up on cue the crowd booed, the ref came running in to award the penalty and Sandow jumped to his feet to miraculously take the kick for touch.
Maybe a penalty was warranted but the extra acting together with last weeks effort is the beginning of a bad trend of diving. Hopefully somebody has a word in his ear because he doesnt want to become known for it rather than his good play

 

[Penance]

lol @ some eels fans blaming ref for loss. Souths bombed probably 2-3 tries too.

Cocaines one hell of a drug.

 

[Jatz Crackers]

I tipped the slimey eels. Poor poor choice.

Considering the talent in the team could they be any softer or more souless ?

 

[Bazal]

Considering the talent in the team could they be any softer or more souless ?

Take out Mateo, Moi Moi and Hindy and I shudder to think...

 

[Dragon]

Lol @ people saying the eels copped some bad calls. I must've been watching a diff game because they had alot of dodgy calls go in their favour.

Well played souths

 

[bileduct]

lol @ some eels fans blaming ref for loss. Souths bombed probably 2-3 tries too.

Who is blaming the ref for the loss?

 

[Y2Eel]

Atleast we know Hayne isnt the best diver in the game anymore Sandown did a great job acting dead!!

 

[S.S.T.I.D]

I'd be absolutely tearing my hair out if I was a Parra fan. There can't be a more frustrating team in the competition.

 

[Bumble]

Who is blaming the ref for the loss?

Souths lose the ball, homer intervenes and gives a penalty...Lynch mob at the ready.

Souths winning streak is obviously a NRL Conspiracy, how else could you explain two pure bs tries awarded.
One okay mistakes happen, but TWO????
FFS

Video ref is on that wacky weed. :x

WTF Both Tries were knocked on wtf!!!!

10-10
After two dubious decisions in favour of Souths

it's offical parra is the most hated by video refs in the nrl.

Except to Simpkins :roll:

the nrl this season is pretty much decided by the refs and video refs

What a terrible video refereeing decision for Souths first try.

That's disgraceful.

I'm not sure who tbh.

 

[bileduct]

For starters mate, I'm not a Parra fan.

The first two Souths try were from bullsh*t decisions regardless of the outcome of the game or what team you support.
