2019 Rd1: Parramatta v Penrith LIVE GAME DAY thread March 17

[Joshuatheeel]

5 episodes of dirty John, now for the real show. Go the eels!!

 

[TheParraboy]

Penrith 5 captains? lol

that might confuse us, and the refs lol

 

[EelsFan05]

ambush coming up

Are we doing the ambushing or being ambushed this season? I can't keep up.

 

[Suitman]

Thats a relief, running the other way would have been bad

I thought you were having a nap?

I initially thought it was a stupid idea; howeever, the more I think about it, the more I like the concept.

At any given time, you'll have at least one bloke on the field who is able to talk to the refs properly, and the other captains can focus on the team's gameplan.

Unorthodox, but I like it.

But go the Eels!

Good to see we wearing our home jersey on an away game, and Penrith wearing their away jersey on their home ground. Bet they though it was gonna be a hot arvo...

Their choices are less than inspired, true...

I was too nervous

 

[Incorrect]

Our attack certainly was “a” problem, but our defence was pretty ordinary as well IMO. The club obviously agreed as they hired a defensive assistant coach mid season.

Agreed.

Watching Robert Jennings score 4 tries in that game against us last year which were basically carbon copies of each other and not a hand laid on him in any of them sure looked like a team with defensive problems....

 

[hineyrulz]

FFS!! Hurrrrrrrrry!!

 

[trevcogger]

Another spoon this year Spearthrowers?
And please dont start whinging about the referees again after 1 mins play....

This had better be good. I've given up a serious Paddy's day lemonade for this.

 

[Gazzamatta]

Chose to run into the wind. Take it while its there I reckon. Good tactics?

That's up to the refs isn't it

 

[TheParraboy]

[Poupou Escobar]

Agreed.

Not a fan , wind can die down or change in the 2nd half
