Eels v's Tigers

[Parra Pride]

Reni injured?

 

[bartman]

Why should that make any difference?

Making the finals is a positive motivation; not getting the wooden spoon is a negative motivation.

Well, the positive motivation clearly didn't work... Negative is all we've got left!

 

[parra-matters]

24 missed tackles in 33mins? poor attitude ?

 

[bartman]

As painful as it will be, we're better off getting the spoon than just barely avoiding it by 1 point.

We need a massive wake up call.

That's probably true.

If we do get tour first spoon since 1972, then surely they're be no dodging it within the club's ranks (even if some fans want to serve up the excuses to pretend it's not a symbol of a poor season/outlook).

 

[bartman]

24 missed tackles in 33mins? poor attitude ?

That's an appalling stat. Either Wests are playing like champions, or we haven't turned up.

But everything will be ok next year ;-).

 

[Parra Pride]

This wouldn't be happening if Morts was playing, he doesn't miss tackles.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Well I'm certainly looking forward to next year; I understand if most of the players are doing the same.

Luckily the next two teams we're facing will also be looking forward to next year, so there won't be that motivation mismatch we're seeing today.

[Avenger]

No shit sherlock...... now anyone at the game or watching in some other way tell me if he has touched the ball???

I'm watching this abomination live. Let me tell you something my friend if Hayne is a 6 I am a porno actor. Kearney should get sacked if he even contemplates this experiment in 2012.

 

[Parramatta1947]

I pity the fans at the game (again). Next Friday night will be fun......

According to that stats page, Wests have made 28 tackle breaks to our 5, 7 offloads to our none, 2 line breaks to our none - and two more errors than us!

 

[parra-matters]

and missed 5 tackles to our 27 missed.

Game about to start on ch9, hope we can put in a better 1st half effort than what I have been reading here

 

[Parramatta1947]

Another great decision to have this game on TV when the other game (and even the game tomorrow) are much more important.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

It's not about importance; it's about how many people want to watch it.
