GRAND FINAL: Parramatta v Penrith GAME DAY THREAD at Accor 2/10/22

[yy_cheng]

They are just too good. More experienced and hardened. This could get messy.

They are really smart

I actually thought the esrly kick was dumb

It’s was ridiculous when we were already losing the forward battle. They scored straight after and we haven’t got a look in since.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

This is our time. f**k these merkins.

 

[Hindmarshisgod2]

Oh well... I guess it's next year again

 

[Sphagnum]

Penrith are bending the rules at 170 degree angles and getting away with it. Good luck competing with that. Luai 5 metres off side right next to the kicker and no penalty and those play the balls where they didn’t even try and get to their feet.

we have to start doing the same shit to compete, they’re obviously not going to penalise anyway.

Trying to score tries instead of build pressure. The scoreboard forces our hand.

It was really bad if we scored or got a repeat set yeh ok but they got the ball back and stuck us back in our corner again .

I’ve just finished mowing the lawns. Has the game started yet?

 

[the phantom menace]

They have just built the skills and plans to effectively slow down our play the balls and momentum, yet consistently achieve quick play the balls themselves.

Nullifying any potential threats we might pose, but allowing their own to run wild on us all across the park.

 

[Eelogical]

They are just controlling the game though their defence, our completion rate has been good, we aren't gifting them anything, they are just taking advantage of the pressure they have applied through their defence.

One thing, we are gifting them quick play the balls.

 

[84 Baby]

I haven’t got into Yellowstone. I might start bingeing it now

 

[Jake the snake]

That’s geography not management

You have to admire what they’ve done.

 

[hineyrulz]

We looked like a team that had the last 48 hours off and then made their own way to the ground Willy nilly. Bea went full potato with the prep. At least he’s safe for two more heads that’s the main thing.

 

[IFR33K]

One day it’ll be our year.

 

[the phantom menace]

I actually thought the esrly kick was dumb

I thought it was desperate... a sign that we weren't making inroads through our (predictable) Plan A.

An ok move if it comes off, but not one that I'd bet the house on.

 

[Angry_eel]

Can only hope for a few constellations. We're done.

Another 30 minutes mate .... go have a shower

 

[Bandwagon]

Horrific first half, Penrith have been great but by good we have been stupid and the tactics nonsensical. I’d like to say I’m surprised.

Klein can go get monkey pox for all I care. He’s f**king blind no wonder the riff are unbeatable under him.

Our tactics aren't the problem, our forwards are, they are being dominated. It's really that simple.

We have no created no space, we have created no time. They will need to play the half of their lives to pull us out of this now.

 

[Tooooks]

I switched off after their third try. This is only going one way and I just don’t want to see it.

Super proud of the club this year to get to the GF. The boys are trying their guts out tonight but they’ve just been starved of possession and the game is too far gone.

I just hope the scoreline doesn’t blow out too much.

 

[Jake the snake]

We didn’t attack their till 2 mins to go. Wow
