I love you.

:shock:

I have no confidence in either the quality or coverage of Amaysim to even try to stream the game. If I had a stable connection I could do it for sure but that is a pipe dream all the way out at Kirkham. I should have the battery life and memory to fully capture both games (just depending the field lighting and my brother's steady hand for quality) and I just verified a Youtube channel so I should be able to upload each game without breaking it up.

I'm happy to do a highlight package as well if there is interest.

You are a gentleman and a scholar 40

"Amateur Hour"? I thought you said you're planning on recording the whole thing? ��

 

[Forty20]

Okay I just got here in time! So much traffic.

Parra kick off to get the game underway and despite a blockbusting run from the Tigers #8 they survive the first set.

Alex Twal replies in kind with a superb run up the middle! He has the fullback to beat but draws and passes to Bevan French who strolls in under the posts.

Awesome start.

No conversions it looks like.

Parra lead Wests 4-0

 

[Forty20]

French fields the kick off and sends Tom Amone into the fray. Parra pick up the first penalty of the game on the back of that charge.

The Eels find touch 10m short of halfway.

Bit of ball playing at the line from Twal now and Amone makes another good charge afterwards. The Eels storm into the Tigers' half and on the back of a deft grubber they looked to have scored - Doolan the architect I think - but the try scorer is offside.

 

[Forty20]

Doolan on the left and Izzard on the right for those that are interested.

Basic set played out by the Tigers and their grubber is well read by Miski (?) on the right wing as he secures the ball with ease.

Play is called up for a sec after a simultaneous offload/held call and no one can get a hand to the following bomb and the Tigers catch a break as it rolls into touch.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

f**ken let's go 40Twenty you mad merkin w00000000!!!

 

[Forty20]

Oh my, forward pass from the reset for the Tigers. That is worth pulling your hair out for if you are the Tigers coach. Parra spread it right to Fuimaono from the scrum win by the big second rower is well taken. Miski gets the ball on the right edge next and is stopped 2m short of the line.

Izzard swings down the left before switching play back to the right, The Eels continue to spread the ball and Reimis Smith lays on a try for Miski but dashing to the sideline and flicking the ball back to his left. Miski has to juggle the ball first but he manages to plant it down safely.

Again, no conversions today.

Parra lead 8-0

 

[Forty20]

Muna on the left and Fuimaono on the right for the other edge combination along with Davis (left) and Smith (right).

Mistake from the Eels now as they let the ball roll dead from the kick off. Lien drop out.

The ball makes it ~40m before it is claimed by the Tigers and they begin to assault the Eels' right edge. They switch play after a couple of tackles but lose the ball. Soft turnover.

 

[Forty20]

Amone, Twal and Miski all used up the middle before Muna takes the ball down the left. Another run and an offload for French to bring up the last and the Eels go for the bomb. Well taken by the Tigers as he is hit by a perfectly timed run.

 

[Forty20]

Cries to hold it from the Tigers' left winger but they don't like that advice and drop the ball.

Parra scrum 30m out from the Tigers' line.

Izzard feeds the ball as Lussick passes from the base to Muna. It is the Eels who come up with the next error though as the ball is spilled from a dummy half pass.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Doolan on the left and Izzard on the right for those that are interested.

And you know I am.

 

[Forty20]

Good talk from French at the back but the Eels give up a penalty in the ruck. Tigers make halfway from their first hit up after the restart.

Their props are used next before they spin it to their right but their centre trips up at first. He quickly makes his feet again and heads back centrefield but it eventually pulled down. The Tigers are finally able to breach the Eels' line as #12 goes for a sortie from left to right, breaking a few tackles and just slamming the ball down with a couple of defenders on him.

Wests trail Parra 4-8

 

[Forty20]

Davis with the kickoff. Some strong runs and hits in this set. Heavy noise from each hit. Wests continue to ruck it out but throw a loose pass via their #6 as they attack the Eels' right. It catches a Parra boot into the backfield and French cleans it up.

Parra then work it down their left before centreing it with Muna to bring up the last. French chimes in down the right and throws a nice ball under pressure to Smith and quickly feeds it to Miski. The stocky winger crashes over despite the efforts of two cover defenders and that will do us for the first quarter!

Parra lead Wests 12-4

 

[Forty20]

Neither team leaves the field for the minor break, instead both choosing to huddle up midfield.

Oh and I just realised that my recording won't have sounds the first first quarter! :/

Sorry guys, forgot to turn the external mic on...

Anyway the teams and called back for the second quarter.

 

[Forty20]

Wests to kick off.

Davis under the kickoff it looks like and Parra then begin the process of working it out. Looks like Brandon Raeli is on and he takes a carry.

Some more ball play at the line from the Parra forwards but Wests defend it well.

Davis comes to the middle of the field to take the kick and bombs it towards his left edge but the Tigers take it well.

Speaking of Davis he is now playing at fullback with French lining up on the left wing it looks like.

 

[Forty20]

No I am wrong, that isn't french it is #18 Jason Vidal it would seem!

And it is Vidal involved in this try as he calls for Lussick or Bush to run it down the right on the last. A nice cut out finds Vidal who in turn beats his opposite on the edge with a lovely in and away before offloading to Fuiamono who powers over!

Eels lead 16-4

 

[Forty20]

Penalty to the Eels now as Wests fail to make the refs' mark.

Raeli trundles forwards before Vidal (lol in #15 I think, not sure who is in #18) takes it right. The play dies and the Eels build to a switch to the left.

Doolan has the touch now as he wheels in a perfect grubber for Nathan Davis next to the posts!

All Parra so far this quarter.

Eels out to a 20-4 lead.

 

[Forty20]

Adventurous stuff from Parra as they move it left from the kick off. They nearly come up with an error on the first tackle but on the following play the ball finds a Wests' hand.

Parra scrum 20m off their line.

Awesome footwork and offload from Tyrell! It sparks a lovely run of play as the Eels cut the Tigers open up the middle with constant support play!

The Eels are eventually brought down but Davis gets the ball down the left edge and throws a gorgeous cut out ball to Craig Field on the left wing (what is going????) who scores as easy a try as you will see.

24-4 for Parra now.
