Match Discussion: Round 7 vs Parramatta @ McDonald Jones Stadium, New Lambton

[Jono078]

Interestingly for Parra, Dylan Brown is named in the centres with Jakob Arthur at 5/8th.

Surely that's not how they actually play considering how good Brown's been going.

Parra's backline is definitely their weakness. We need Gagai and Best to be on their game today and use their skill and experience to get us some tries.

We are light off the bench. I would have dropped Crossland.

 

[Zoidberg]

We got dis!

 

[Mr_Knightside]

TBH I think we'll fire up and win this one... only to embarrass ourselves next week and get pumped by 40 against Melbourne.

 

[Spot On]

We are light off the bench. I would have dropped Crossland.

Joey was raving about the strength of our bench an hour ago.

 

[Loose Cannon]

We are light off the bench. I would have dropped Crossland.

Carrying Mann, Crossland and Sasagi in the 17 is suicide with the Safs in their current bludge mode.

 

[The Axe of Druss]

Who were we supposed to bring in on the bench though?

All our good back up big boys are injured

 

[Jono078]

I think Crossland keeps his spot as pure safety incase Clune can't make it through.

But as Axe said... Who do you bring in? If you watched NSW cup just then you'd realize there's actually no one that would be worthy.

 

[Old dog]

Our spine players are in short supply, no ready replacement for 1, 6, 7 & 9, don’t count Crossland and Hoy as suitable. No apparent up and comers in lower two grades that are likely to be considered in next season or two, we will have to buy.

 

[Jono078]

Be a travesty to let the Eels win in those jerseys.

 

[slotmachine]

Not a bad start.

 

[Jono078]

Randall, Klemmer and Saifiti have started strong.

 

[Jono078]

Great kick Clune!

 

[slotmachine]

This is very composed.

 

[Silent Knight]

That’s what Parra deserve for arrogant plays like that.

 

[Tom155]

Awfully quick trigger on that penalty

 

[Tom155]

SOFT D

 

[Tom155]

Pathetic attempt from Klemmer and Randall

 

[Jono078]

Can't be giving up tries that easy.

What were the markers doing there
