Parramatta Eels Holden Cup & Junior Reps Thread Part III

[Kornstar]

We're wasting our time with ZDC he's got nothing..

Agreed

 

[Forty20]

Nothing doing this set, lots of one outs before we earn a fortuitous penalty for Davis getting held of the ball after he toed a bad pass sideways.

Finally the Eels cross as Reimis Smith beats his opposite in a simple one-on-one exercise. Poor stuff from the Warriors but we are finally on the board in the second half.

The conversion is successful.

Parra narrow the margin to 10-22

66min gone.

 

[Forty20]

Good run and offload from TTS I think, might have been Kaufusi.

Bit of wind in the sails as you so often see in the NYC after a try.

Parra march all the way down to the NZ goal line before Miski grasses the cut out ball from French. Not sure if the pass was the right call from French but that was a bad drop from Abbas either way.

 

[Forty20]

Try to the Warriors.

Davis tries to shadow a ball dead in goals but the ball *just* holds up enough to let a chaser make a play at the ball and bat it back between the feet of Davis. A second chaser is right on point to score the try by tapping the ball and the Warriors hit back almost immediately.

The conversion is successful.

NZ lead Parra 28-10

71min gone.

 

[Forty20]

Penalty to the Warriors after the ref rules that Tui Oloapu was offside after cleaning up the ball from Pene's mistimed jump at a NZ kick.

Oh dear. That is as soft as it gets. The Warriors throw a nothing ball to the ground. There is zilch happening for the Warriors. Nada. Roache picks the ball up and simply slides through Twal and Amone before beating Davis to score.

Awful.

The conversion is successful.

The Warriors lead Parra 34-10

75min gone.

 

[half_back]

Very weak defence again in the middle. Disappointing performance all round.

 

[Kornstar]

This grade needs to go imo. What f**king dumb ass decided it would be a good idea to bring in a grade where they are not allowed to train more often?

The grade would be much better if they put more time into the players and they could learn how to play the game better.

 

[Forty20]

Just terrible. This one was far worse than the previous try from a grubber kick for mine.

Pene and Davis converge to shield the ball over the dead ball line with neither wanting to play at the pill. They are left red faced when the NZ winger races in to ground the ball with centimetres to work in. Words are failing me at this point.

These guys train more and with better resources and facilities than Wenty NSW Cup. No excuses there is no one is this squad that has first grade potential at this point. Blokes like ZDC, Davis and Fuimoano have gone backwards from last year.

 

[Forty20]

The conversion is unsuccessful.

NZ extend the lead to 38-10.

79min gone.

 

[Forty20]

Miski forces an error with a nice shot in defence.

30sec on the clock.

 

[Avenger]

Are you in NZ forty20 or are you watching it on Fox?

 

[Forty20]

An error from Reimis Smith should just about do us today. The Warriors might get a play or two from the scrum feed.

 

[Forty20]

Are you in NZ forty20 or are you watching it on Fox?

Just off Fox, for those they can't watch it. Not sure if I can do the Wenty game though, feeling a bit crook (and no not due to the game I just witnessed!).

 

[Forty20]

The Warriors ruck the ball out to bring an end to the game.

Full Time

NZ 38 DEF Parra 10

 

[Noise]

Round 1 was obviously a fairly true indication of this team's ability. ZDC is garbage. So many times I have been at the games watching him consistently take the wrong options. Nathan Davis is the most over rated junior since the Witts. He is f**ken slow.

 

[TheRam]

One word to describe our team.

Lazy.

What a lazy team. Sure as individuals you can see some players have promise, like Twal, but as a team they are totally absent and lazy.

 

[Avenger]

They were shit.

 

[strider]

i was so impressed with their efforts, i decided to vacuum the house instead

 

[strider]

i have a bad feeling this is going to be quite a bag afternoon all round for us parra fans
