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

[Jono078]

What has changed from the first 2 rounds? That is where the questions have to be asked. We were able to handle the little setbacks and now out of nowhere we cannot.

We've all clearly underestimated what Fitzgibbon and Barnett do for the team out there.

Because that's all that's changed. Dom Young was handy too.

penalties are 4-3 Knights

Difference is when we get a leg up we've got no f**king idea, whereas the eels score in 3 or 4 tackles.

Difference is we're a very poorly coached team in all facets

 

[Jono078]

AOB's body language looks terrible at halftime. Slouched back in his chair trying to hand out instructions. No one really seems to be paying attention.

The army band covering Screaming Jets at half time is by far the best thing I’ve seen today

we played 2 teams who had off days, it happens.

If we don't score first this will get ugly

Off days but we also showed a hell of a lot more than what we have been lately. I won't accept that as the only reason. Our first 2 rounds (even the first half against the Panthers) were completely different to what we're seeing now.

The Marching Koalas could have managed that too. And have plenty more structure than our attack.

 

[perverse]

I thnk that first half should be a bit of a wakeup call for the "it's the forwards not going forward" brigade. Our shitness had nothing to do with the forwards - we've just got Kurt Mann and Adam Clune steering the ship.

 

[Jono078]

Blocker said something smart..

"Watch the Eels line aim up here in defence knowing the Knights wont throw anything at them."

What a sad day when even Blocker knows it.

 

[perverse]

Oh and Clunes knee is obviously no good. It's not the reason he's not first grade quality, but it's not helping either.

 

[Seage]

Three blokes in tackle, all going high, and they can't stop the offload. Pathetic.

 

[aqua_duck]

Randall is mud

 

[perverse]

Oh, and Chris Randall sucks as well. That is all.

 

[Seage]

Obviously another AOB masterclass at halftime.

 

[Tom155]

Lol aob can’t look

and with good reason more pathetic defence

 

[aqua_duck]

non existent marker defence and passive goal line defence

 

[Jono078]

That'll be all she wrote.

I think the only thing that'll piss me off regardless of what Parra score, is if we're kept to 2 points.

Since round 4 and including this game, we're only averaging 6 points per game.

Just checked the score. Thank God I'm not watching lol

 

[NoSchitSherlock]

Soft. Game over.
