Can someone who saw this match please explain the details of Peachey's send-off? That the Sharks can be so ill-disciplined absolutely amazes me, was it really that bad or was it just the Hayne factor?

Whatever the reason, surely questions need to be asked about Chris Anderson now. I can only imagine how you Sharks fans feel after such a thrashing. I wouldn't wish a 74-4 scoreline on anyone.

The game as called by me on Leagueunlimited:

Scorers:
EELS
Tries: Morris, Petersen, Lyon x 5, Vaealiki, Moodie, Graham x 2, Cayless, Hopkins, Webster.
Goals: Witt 4/6, Morris 1/2, Dykes 4/5, Hindmarsh 0/1.
SHARKS
Tries: Gallen
Goals: Andeson 0/1

By the clock:
1st min: Kickoff on a wet and cold night with both sides only playing for pride.

16th min: Still no score in a very evenly contested match with the Eels and Sharks both playing a very expansive game.

17th min: TRY - Sharks. Some poor Eels defence lets Paul Gallen crash over out wide. The try came after Michael Sullivan kicked a contentious 40/20 call. Conversion unsuccessful. Sharks 4-0.

23rd min: TRY - Eels. John Morris throws a dummy from dummy half and goes over untouched. Shayne Hayne has been his usual whistle happy self and piggybacked the Eels down the field. Conversion successful. Eels 6-4.

29th min: TRY - Eels. Michael Witt drops a nice ball behind the Sharks defence and side show bob(Petersen) is there to pick up the scraps. Touchline conversion successful. Eels 12-4.

33rd min: TRY - Eels. A quick play the ball by Nathan Hindmarsh to Adam Dykes and Dykes moves left, passes right to Jamie Lyon who zig zags his way to the line and through some soft defence. Another great conversion from Michael Witt. Eels 18-4.

37th min: TRY - Eels. A great long range try to David Vaealiki and it was started by John Morris who has been by far and away the best player on the field at present. At this rate the Eels will leapfrog the Dragons into 9th position with two rounds to play. Conversion successful. Eels 24-4.

HALF TIME: The Eels hold a commanding 20 point lead and the highlight of the first half was a stoush between Darren Treacy and David Peachey right on half time. Shayne Hayne will have to work hard in the second half to keep the lid on some simmering feelings between these two sides.

NEWS: David Peachey has been sent off by Shayne Hayne after saying something derogatory to the referee. Initially, Peachey was given ten in the bin but said something on his way off the field. Hayne tried to call him back but Peachey kept on walking and then was told he could not return.

49th min: TRY - Eels. Jason Moodie has scored an easy try after Danny Nutley was given ten as the Sharks battle on with 11 men. Shades of Bill Harrigan in Newcastle last year. Conversion unsuccessful. Eels 28-4.

51st min: TRY - Eels. Ashley Graham scores a long range try as the Sharks struggle with 11 men. Conversion unsuccessful. Eels 32-4.

NEWS: Dale Newton has been sent off as the Sharks are down to ten men. I must say the send off was warranted for a blatant high shot. Parrmatta could well catch St George Illawarra now.

54th min: TRY - Eels. Jamie Lyon extends the Eels lead as the Sharks hit rock bottom. Conversion unsuccessful Eels 36-4.

56th min: TRY - Eels. Parra are scoring faster than I can type. Lyon gets his third of the evenoing and the carnage is far from done. Conversion successful. Eels 42-4.

58th min: TRY - Eels. Nathan Cayless gets a rare try as this game deteriorates into a farce. Conversion successful. Eels 48-6.

60th min: TRY - Eels. Lee Hopkins get in on the act with a simple kick over the top that sees him score untouched. Conversion successful. Eels 54-4.

62nd min: TRY - Eels. Ashley Graham gets his second as the score reaches embarrassing levels. Conversion unsuccessful. Eels 58-4.

68th min: TRY - Eels. Jamie Lyon gets his fourth of the night as the Eesl officially pass the Dragons on the ladder. Conversion successful. Eels 64-4.

76th min: TRY - Eels. James Webster scores to set a clubrecord for Parramatta. I'm not sure they would be too proud of the circumstances under which it was achieved. Conversion successful. Eels 70-4.

79th min: TRY - Eels. Jamie Lyon sets a club record with five tries and the Eels set a record for their biggest ever win since their inception in 1947. Conversion unsuccessful. Eels 74-4.

FULL TIME: Arguably the nastiest game of foot ball I have ver seen. Two Sharks players sent fromt eh field including captain David Peachey and from there on, it was all one way traffic as the Eels erased a 66 point negative points differential and leapfrogged the Dragons into 9th place. This will be big news in tomorrows papers.

Actually, the Sharks always deserve a 70 point thrashing.

IMO, the ref had a poor game and rated 2 out of 10... but the Sharks were playing like rabble as well.

Regarding the first send off. IMO, it was clash of personalities between Hayne and Peachey... and that's an argument Peachey had no chance of winning. Peachey was called back at least 4 times but ignored the ref's instructions - he was the player who kept walking and really, he gave the ref no choice.

Seriously though Willow, you can't blame Peachey for ignoring him. Hayne displayed him the same "courtesy" seconds earlier. But it also prompts the questions: Did Peachey hear Hayne?

according to the commentators on the radio, he called the ref a cheat, he also dropped the "f" word into the conversation and that is what got him put into the bin initially (just my opinion though on that) they also said that the touch judge and officials on that side of the field also tried to call him back onto the field and he just ignored them.

Tamazoid, firstly, I thought Hayne had an ordinary match but there's a time to question the ref and there's a time to leave the crap out.

Without the ref, we can't have a game. For a senior player or captain to ignore referee instructions is an untenable situation. I'm sure that in the light of day, any rational player will agree.

Also, I don't think this was in the same league as Harrigan's infamous effort in the Knights-Parra match last year.

This is the way I saw the incident tonight:

Peachey was animated in questioning the ref's decision and was going on about dominant tackles.
The ref asked him to stop waving his hands about. This was Peachey's first warning.

Peachey continued with the display so the ref marched him 10 metres. This was Peachey's second warning.

Peachey then gave more backchat so Hayne then sent him to the sin bin to cool off. This was the third warning.

Not satisfied, Peachey then said something again - Hayne took offence to the last remark and then called him back. Clearly, Peachey was still being given one more chance to accept that it is the referee who in control of the match. This was to be the fourth and final warning.

Peachey kept walking and Hayne yelled out several times to Peachey to return.

By ignoring this (yes I'm sure he knew that Hayne was calling him), the ref had no choice and then gave the instruction that Peachey was off for good. What else could he do?

People have reported that he called Hayne a "f**king cheat" and that's what it looked like he said if you read his lips. It looked like Phil Bailey was trying to tell Peachey to come back but he ignored him too. Hayne would of sent him anyway had he come back on imo.
