POST GAME DISCUSSION - 2019 Rd10 Eels 10 v Cowboys 17

[84 Baby]

We can all rejoice about something tonight that f**king finally the witch is dead.

Abbott lost as well

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Alvaro is a slug. Take out his kick return and he got 6 runs for 52m

Take out all his runs and he still made almost a tackle per minute. We need him in the team, especially with Paulo there.

It's kinda 6 of one, half dozen of other at moment though, cause we need Paulo in the team to cover Alvaro's attack

I wouldn’t call Shorten as the prime minister of this country any kind of positive.

If he’s in the team for his work rate (which I agree he probably is) then why the f**k did they beef him up into a slug? Generally ur workers are smaller

 

[Delboy]

Just opened the thread, as far as I could tell the game turned on that absolutely stupid and unnecessary pass from Jenning under the posts , wtf was he thinking. Ruck the ball out etc, schoolboy thinking and he would be toast in an age Division 1 game, should be dropped and made to apologise.

That and the 30 metre line bombs from Moses, they really need to sort out their tactical awareness, ordinary with the game available to be won despite playing poorly. The defence stood up, the attack ummmm where was it?

 

[Suitman]

I'll have some things to say later re the game.
I'm off to watch the election result on the ABC.

"Why can't we have both?"

Could be Abott gone and Shorten failing (and knifed too?)

 

[oldmancraigy]

Back to footy:

Who is our wrestling coach? Luke Burt???
We consistently struggle to even get a marker in place...

And Gennings. Ouch.

Sivo and MJennings back. Fire up against the Panthers guys!

Needs to be dropped x 10
I'd rather Gower.

 

[Delboy]

I manage a Div 1 side in the Penrith comp, after watching that game this afternoon and then seeing Gennings f*+k up, no wonder the junior rep selectors watch every game looking for game awareness. That was bottom of the cockie cage stuff from a winger tonight.

Gennings has been a dumb footballer his whole career. Even last year when he was awarded our best back he still had a lot of dumb shit in him. I don't know why we keep re-signing dumb footballers.

 

[hindy111]

Wow every back made huge meters and still lost.
We did have 4 of our starters out.
Not to bad tbh.

Do you know a kid called Tyler?
My cousin boy plays with him. Very talented. About 14. He plays in the halves.

 

[Bazal]

Alvaro and Mahoney made 40 tackles between them in the first twenty odd....no other four Eels combined for the same number. But yeah let's slit our wrists cos they missed a few thanks to fatigue or drop Alvaro cos he took fewer runs.

Deadset mongs. There is a bigger picture, but parra fans are woeful at anything beyond the most simple

Tyler Knoll? Tough kid. Never complains about aches and pains.

Awful statistics.

However, the worst part for me is that those statistics were offered up a week after we conceded 60.

I'm bitterly disappointed in this team right now.

 

[parrathruandthru]

Back in 2016/17 we had this guy as our defensive coach
https://www.linkedin.com/in/brettofarrelltackletec/?originalSubdomain=au
Not sure of the reason he left it may have been the cost cutting but since he left the defence as been average at best. Other than the roosters game it's been the reason for all our losses this year.
Even when we smash some merkin we are the last up. Have a look at the 3rd player in around the legs and watch him fall off as the attacker drives forward.
How many offloads are there when the player seems to have been wrapped up?
Ever notice how many players are behind the dummy half and not in the defensive line?
Peni, Manu & Marata are classics for this then they wander back on side.
Teams are just getting a roll on us and momentum gets penalties.
I'd love to know the stats for back to back tackling this year let alone back to back to back.
Fix this and game will become a lot easier

Just came back from the bar, did we win??
