first weekend's televised games

[isaiah]

sat will be parra v nz

parra in 2012 could only win 5 games all season, nz should win

sun game is much more interesting- panthers v raiders, finished 5th and 3rd last year.
panthers will miss VTK but have been impressive in trials.
raiders have talent all over the park, they have 4 players [ahearn, cornish, hawkins, and lynch] entering their 3rd season plus milford is a star in the making

 

[Raidersrawesome]

The Raiders backline is strong , I think Hawkins done his hamstring in the trials and must be in doubt.

The Raiders forwards are mostly all new and may struggle initially

 

[PaddyBoy]

My cousins in the Raiders team, I'm glad I'll be able to see him because I can't get to the game and the Raiders aren't back in Sydney till round 10.

 

[Panther_Daz]

This is Penrith's best chance of winning the comp since the 2008 side.

parra v nz just starting

 

[isaiah]

parra boys have lots of experience but in a losing team last season. nz should be too strong

 

[isaiah]

first try only took 3 min, cricket score may be coming

 

[natheel]

Good back up set after a try by parra

 

[natheel]

Parra 10-4

Weird game

Parra kick 40/20 lose scrum then warriors kick back into their own in goal and its a drop out. Parra ball

 

[isaiah]

parra lead 10-4 with 73% of poss.
what happens when it evens up?

 

[natheel]

Eels in again. 16-4

 

[natheel]

Eels in again

20-4

 

[natheel]

Should've challenged that one. Eels let off big time

 

[natheel]

Parramatta 26-4

 

[natheel]

Half time and Parramatta lead 32-4

 

[Springbokfly]

Half time and Parramatta lead 32-4

Go Parra :lol:

 

[natheel]

66th minute

Eels 36-8

 

[ElectricEelMan]

first try only took 3 min, cricket score may be coming

Nostradamus reincarnated!

46-8

Sounds like a realistic scoreline for the Warriors vs Eels game

But only if you thought the warriors would romp it in.

The Eels were surprisingly impressive. The year of experience for the young squad has done them good.
