Eels v Panthers

[Hass]

Parra put up a good showing. Sure, they might not have been good enough, but they only started playing silly-buggers in the last 10 minutes because Mick Stone disallowed that Corey Pearson try.

Look, based on our season this year we don't deserve to make the finals anyway, however it does tick me off that a bodgy Video Ref's call ended any hope we had.

While I've enjoyed retro week, Mick Stone is one thing I think would be better left in the 80's.

Cheers.

One if the most inept refereeing performances ever.

If you put in an effort like that in any other profession you'd get the arse. These clowns should be held more accointable.

Disgraceful stuff by the lot of them.

 

[El Diablo]

And these blokes want respect :lol:

In your dreams.

No excuses. We were ahead on line breaks, missed tackles and, in the first 60, completions. And behoind on the scoreboard. Why? Smith butchered the halves again, replacing them instead of forwards. And in the final 20, our forwards simply ran out of puff. Still they tried. Given a decent game plan (like, when have we had one of those since 01???) they might have prevailed. Then again, given a decent game plan all year, we'd be top 4!

Congats Panthers - better team..no, COACH won.

Penrith are the better team, let's face it. To take it up to em like we did last night was a strong enough effort. Congrats boys, you've got my respect. Keep it up!

great game panthers hung in there though and was better side in the end

Good game, with the result I wanted!

Great to see a number of Eels fans coming up to us after full time and congraulating us, and wishing us all the best in the finals... well done, good sportsmanship!

Just one thing... what's the go with the big screen?!

A large group of Penny supporters were in Bay 54 last night (in the Peter Sterling Terrace) and every time we wanted to see a replay, we couldn't, because of f***ing advertising signage... :x

But I might get myself some Harvest Seedless Watermelon when I go shopping this week... :lol:

 

[MystikEel]

You're not the first ones to say the signs need to go. I sit middle back of bay 56 (might have seen me with the banners last night - shouting random replies to people - it was actually to the ref - yay for sports ears) and we've been p!ssed off with the signs since round 3, two years ago. :x

Question, i thought it was retro week........or did penrith forget?

 

[Utey]

They arent allowed the wear any other jersey except for that one they wore last night, apparently becuase of advertising issues.

 

[Rednecked Yobbo]

Okay, didnt know that
