Check this thread after 3pm for a rockin' good game between the panthers and the eels. Not exactly a play by play but the best I can manage.

Penrith Stadium - Night Game - Rain - AI v AI game
5 minute halves
If you dont see a name or position in a description, I didnt see it in time
Abbreviations
PE3 = Parra Centre etc etc
PR = Pass right
(42) = Tackle 42 metres out from the try line closest to the ball player
DH = Dummy Half
1stR = First Receiver
- Gower kicks off for Penrith Panthers (PP) (Parramatta = PE)
- PE3 recieves the kick. 1st on the 20
- PR to PE8 who busts through a tackle and then gets nailed by a three man tackle. (35)
- Pass inside, through a half gap before being tackled on (40)
- PL to PE10 who goes nowhere (40)
- DH waited too long to pass, nailed in tackle (43)
- PE1stR knock on (40) Great opportunity for Penrith
- Gower gets ball from scrum, right foot step, beats one, makes a few yards, fends off fullback and puts the pedal down. He's through. TRY under the posts !
Penrith 4 - Parramatta 0
- Girdler converts. 6 - 0
- Parra kick off to the 5m line on PP right. Tacken by Campbell who gets tackled (28) Its a high shot though from the PE9, and late.
- Penalty sufficient. Gower finds touch on the PE (45)
- Gower tackled on (40)
- PP3 dummies to the left from dummy half before passing right to Campbell who was lurking out wide.
- Campbell breaks through a poor attempt at tackle from the Eels winger to stride out and score in the corner. The eels are shellshocked.
Penrith 10 - Parra 0
- Girdler misses the conversion, score remains at 10 - 0
- Parra kick off and PP3 takes ball and is tackled (25)
- Pass R to PP8 who almost beats a tackle and then gets absolutely CRUNCHED (36) Looks like this may have sparked the Eels.
- Pass L to PP10 who gets driven back in a great two man tackle (29)
- Switch to R but the pass is forward from the Panthers hooker. The pressure that was being built has all gone to waste now.
- Parra feed scrum on PE40. Witt gets the ball, beats one, spins out of another tackle and then gets totally hammered byt he defence (30) Great run by Witt though, he's on fire tonight.
- Next tackle does nothing from DH (29)
- Good hit up by the PE8 (20)
- Pass L to Lyons who has a brain explosion and decides to kick ahead but has no hope of the regather.
- Panthers have the ball and get tackled (10)
- Pass R to PP8 (18)
- Pass R to PP2 (23)
- Pass L to PP10 (27) Great defence
- After 5 passes this tackle that get Penrith nowhere 5th tackle (30)
- Gower kicks and finds touch on Eels side of halfway (42)
- Witt gets the ball, steps one and tries to do a dance it seems. Tackled (Halfway)
- Pass L PE11 who spots a small gap and makes good metres (35)
- DH run and then a last minute pass to PE12. Tackle (30)
- Pass L PE3 who stupidly passes inside to a marked man who gets nailed (30)
HALF TIME.
Penrith Panthers 10 - Parramatta Eels 0
Second Half
- Eels kickoff, gower receives and gets tackled (21)
- Pass to PP2 who makes good yards (30)
- Priddis makes good run from DH but tries to pass while being tackled and the pass goes forward. Fantastic opportunity for the Eels.
- Scrum (40)
- Fantastic run by Witt, spinning out of a tackle and almost fending off a second. Defender holds on long enough for the defensive support to turn up. (30)
- Eels release ALL the pressure by knocking on from DH
- Gower continues to have a blinder. A big fend right in the defenders face gives him a small gap and he goes for it. The PE1 desperately dives to attempt an ankle tap but just misses and Gower is away. TRY to Gower 4m to the right of the sticks. 14 - 0
- Girdler converts 16 - 0. I dont think Parra can come back from this.
- Kick off, Penrith player is tackled (20)
- Good run by PP4 (32) Marker defence is a bit brittle
- Great defence and a heavy tackle (35)
- Pass R to PP5 who steps and passes inside but the pass is intercepted by PE2 who streaks downfield before being run down 35 metres out from the Penrith line
- Silly flick type pass inside from DH that could have gone anywhere but tackle is made (32)
- DH run by PP2 (27)
- Dh charges through and tries to grubber for himself but defence JUST beats him to it. Eels looking to try and score off every play it seems. Its about 3/4 time.
- PP 1st tackle (20)
- Good 2nd tackle (22)
- Pass outside to PP4 (28)
- Pass L , tackle (30) Nothing adventurous from Penrith
- Some silly passing and tackle 5 (30)
- Good run from Campbell who gets to 45m out and then kicks for touch. It goes out on the full though.
- 1st tackle for PE on halfway
- Fantastic backline movement, 6 passes, two of which were offloads in tackles before defence gets their man (33)
- Eels starting to look the goods, a bit late though. Tackle (22)
- Too impatient from Eels again. Witt chips for himself but fails to regather. Try time of he did though.
- PP 1st tackle (10)
- Pass L 2nd tackle (18)
- Pass R Crunched on (21)
- 4th tackle (25) Lots of one out stuff
- 5th tackle (28) Gower kicks from 1stR and finds touch on the halfway
- Witt has ball, looks to go L and then switches to the R, beats a tackle. The cover comes across but he sells a GREAT dummy and runs another 20 before offloading to to Lyon who scores a consolation try 10m to the L off the sticks.
- Penrith 16 - Parramatta 4
- Witt converts. 16 - 6. about 15 seconds left on the clock.
- 1st tackle 25m out
- Oooh bad luck. Knee injury to a Parra player, replaced by PE15
