[hineyrulz]

Kenny Edwards>>>Nathan Lyon

 

[Glenn]

Kenny Edwards back in the team next week ASAP.

So we can have a player in the Sin Bin for multiple periods of 10mins?

 

[Oscarman]

I asked that in the match thread, no answer. That was a huge turning point.

Just the usual bullshit we cop every week. Storm would have got the feed.

 

[JohnStoppafarty]

Not only that, but if you watch Moses, he actually gets up and runs quickly back into the position he should have been when the ball was played, before he then moves and makes the tackle. He did nothing wrong.

He never looked square through my beer glasses but surely not worth 10 in the bin.

 

[Bazal]

Kenny Edwards back in the team next week ASAP.

Edwards for Scott, Terepo for Matagi if fit. IMO.

Evans was the best benchy, 5 runs for 50m. Needs to get more involved though, even if it's just the Kikau level of 8 or 9 runs for 80m plus

 

[Oscarman]

Only because Cleary went 2 metres forward of the mark.

 

[Suitman]

Watch it again. Without beer glasses.

So we can have our best interchange player in the team, I would have thought.

Kenny actually gives away fewer penalties than half our pack

 

[Bazal]

He wasn't square, but Peachey moving off the mark makes it hard to judge.

Happy if that's a bin every week. We'll see, as with any other NRL crackdown, if it lasts past about Rd 6

If Edwards can cut out the stupid crap, then yes give him a bench spot. Can do something brilliant, then have a brain fart the next play.

 

[Noise]

I was worried when BA named Scott as captain. Will he have the balls to drop him? He looked unfit and offered f**k all in attack and defence. Edwards needs to take his place

 

[Snoochies]

What bugs me most about being a Parra fan, and I'm not sure other fans go through it as much.
We play and get up by a bunch of points and we look awesome, but....as a Parra fan, never is a good lead comfortable. It should be but it never is. Years ago against the Bulldogs in round 1, we were leading 22-0 and we found a way to lose. Today, we looked great at 14-0 but still because of past experiences I'm not comfortable. But my brain whacks me out of it and tells me this is a new team, new year it can't happen so in my mind I believe it won't happen again. Heck if I supported just about any other team I know we'll go on with it. Sure we'll have a lull in the game but get back to what we were doing and I believe Parra will do the same. But just like that game against the Dogs, it's always in the back of my mind that we could in fact self destruct.
For once and I pray it's this year, but I pray we could just be consistent every game. We have the ability so Parra, just get it done FFS!!

 

[84 Baby]

That f**king bullshit sin bin killed us. Cleary played the ball off the mark and took the marker out. And we get rewarded by being a man down for 10 minutes. They scored ten points in that time. That was the difference.

f**king ark up Pou!

 

[Glenn]

Wonder why people aren't critical of Mau, bad missed tackle in the lead up to the Panthers Try just before half time seems to be overlooked.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Edwards for Scott, Terepo for Matagi if fit. IMO.

Evans was the best benchy, 5 runs for 50m. Needs to get more involved though, even if it's just the Kikau level of 8 or 9 runs for 80m plus

You reckon the captain will get dropped after one game?

 

[Noise]

Mau was terrible. That missed tackle that led to a try was embarrassing but what is just as bad is that more often than not he gets smashed most hitups, put on his back and gets us a slow play the ball. He was trending downwards last year IMO.

 

[Noise]

You reckon the captain will get dropped after one game?

I don't think he will but he should. Offers nothing.

 

[Bazal]

You reckon the captain will get dropped after one game?

I dunno. But he should. Offered absolutely nothing
