Parra v Manly LIVE game day thread, March 18, 2018

[strider]

U cant play this bad next week

Reverse psychology doesnt work on us ... we can lose by this any time we want ffs

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Yet we have twice as many penalties as Manly.

Probably at least half of ours on their try line, most for them are coming out of their half

 

[Incorrect]

There has been some funny shit in this game, stuff I've never seen before. Sadly, one thing I have seen before is Eels sides disappointing in seasons when they were highly fancied....

 

[Suitman]

Just out of curiosity are you happy with 24-0?

Of course I'm f**king not.

 

[hineyrulz]

Bevan French is a winger. He isn’t a fullback’s arsehole.

Bit hard to blame the fullback when your pack is getting murdered and your halves off absolutely zero.

But the jury is out with him.

 

[TheParraboy]

Best way I can sum it up

When we have the ball it looks like they have 15 players on the field
When they have the ball it looks like we have 11 players on the field

 

[Twizzle]

we'll be last on for and against after this shit sandwich

 

[IFR33K]

Once again we pushed over the sideline - not good

Ffs in Bevans defence Uate clearly had him around the neck in a choker hold right in front of the touchie.

 

[Das Hassler]

But this pack got us to the top 4 last year........

A cushie draw sure didnt hurt

 

[Ring Gids]

Over the line twice, only to lose the ball. We’ve been terrible, but score both of those and we might have gotten some momentum and still be in with a shot.

I am sitting in the middle of the main grandstand at Brookvale
It is feral
I sat in the main grandstand at Penrith
It was feral with flannos and ugg boots.
If the Eels continue to dish up this crap
I am NEVER going to an away game again
And I drive down from Newcastle
BA will need every bit of magic to get us out of this

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Feels like the old days when the game was usually over by halftime!!

 

[strider]

Bevan French is a winger. He isn’t a fullback’s arsehole.

Well our best fullback is recovering from an acl .... the other merkin is being a turnstile in the centres

 

[Tooooks]

Wow, this performance takes me back...to the early to mid 90s.

I can cop a loss but any team that gives up 30 points in half a game of footy has no chance whatsoever of being a contender at the end of the year.

Even fans of other team are coming here and being nice cos they feel sorry for us. Jeebus.

 

[hineyrulz]

Thank god that's over!

No mate we have another 40mins of this.

 

[Djay]

It's been the case for awhile.

Not just today, when Gutho returns you'll see the improvement in that area.

 

[Chipmunk]

Well stating the obvious....extremely poor first half. You can say Manly had all the ball, but we were shit in defence from the first time they had the ball and we were never in the contest from that point onwards.

 

[Suitman]

Suits, our goal line defence has been a disgrace. Manly are scoring each time they visit our try line. They are getting over the advantage line each hit up at will.

I understand that.
I'm just not prepared to throw this team to the wolves at this stage of the season.

Well i hope you've finally learnt your lesson

Semi will be in the south of France watching this sipping on a glass of Pinot and giggling to himself, thinking thank god I left those losers.
