That sin bin was good refereeing.

In these instances I'd like to see the attacking team get to play out the full set, ala Union, even past full time.
Yeah was a bit confusing and annoying. Clock keeps ticking as the player holds on longer, penalty, sin bin, player f**ks off etc. Anyway. I got no finger nails left and I look forward to first grade full back playing for Penrith.

Anyway, what a game as a viewer. Some moments of derp as an Eels fan, but a great game of football.

Nice to get the result but if it had been 16-10 the other way I don't think it would have stung at all. Both played like sides who could feature if the Roosters or Storm crack.

Definitely Parra still have to prove we can beat those two. But hey, 5-0 early and likely to play finals is much better than SK era.

The first 60 minutes had me daring to entertain the thought we might be decent this season but the last 20 minutes reminded me that our attack is still really ordinary and as soon as the pressure ramps up against a quality side we let 3 quick tries in.

That's why Eels will be top 4 and we'll be rather lucky if we make the 8 :rolleyes:
