Qualifying final 2020: Parra v Storm GAME DAY thread (3/10/20)

[Jake the snake]

We will be going out in straight sets again this year. I for one don’t find it good enough. How many chances do we give the bloke. Our defence has massive issues. We let in tries that were not elaborate at all. So embarrassing

 

[emjaycee]

Thanks mate
I do get a bit too passionate sometimes, but there’s a reason behind it

I know and I would too if I was you.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

We also drop off once Rcg and Jnr get a rest

Yes, but injuries stuffed our interchange, Marata / Davey both had to play centre.

We love your passion, mate - never lose it!

 

[emjaycee]

Maybe u should go back and have a look at couple of posts u directed at me, finishing with R U OK, you are a colossal hypocrite!!!

A bit of revisionist history there mate.


I was responding to IFR33K's comment.

You chimed in with claiming i had a typical loser Parra mentality


And I called you out on it without actually playing the man, but having a go at your comments.

I'm not sure telling Sivo twice he's not wanted give us twice is salary to spend

I meant Fergo.

 

[hindy111]

Matterson to me is a lock. I don't think he offers a lot out wide tbh. His best work is when he comes in.

I think we can win next week. But we do not have the fire-power if we did make grand final to beat Storm or Raiders or Roosters.
I feel Panthers will smack anyone on our side tbh. Souths maybe able to give them a run.

But if Storm made GF and we somehow got there I just dont see how we could beat them.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Dudes let’s just talk footy

 

[hindy111]

I meant Fergo.

FERGO HASNT MADE A CLEan brake in over 12 mths.

D.Brown is still to raw.

 

[Avenger]

I’d be tapping Fergo on the shoulder and letting him go if he could possibly find a new club. I’d go after Addo Carr and we would be transformed as a team. Offer the Storm Fergo or Sivo as compensation.

If we were to pick up a couple more forwards for 2021, I wouldn't mind seeing:

8 Paulo
9 Mahoney
10 NBrown
11 Lane
12 Marata
13 Matterson

14 Kaufusi
15 RCG
16 New Guy (edge)

It would enable us to keep the momentum with the interchange better than we have been.

Not a bad option...

I take your point but a year down the track we will be kicking ourselves because Bellyache would turn them both into superstars and JAC will turn to shite.

No need to move on mate, there is a home for all of us here.
Afterall, we are all sad as f**k Eels supporters that are riding our team to death in our own way as we wait in hope for that elusive GF victory lap.

Na Marata offers nothing on the edge except running hard. Matterson has more skill/hits holes etc etc plus is better defensively.

The pack isn’t the problem it’s our edge defence. The structure is fine, but Sivo makes terrible decisions, Blake makes ok decisions but misses, and Fergo makes silly errors.

I thought the biggest issue was our attack?
I must have been reading a different forum for the last 8 weeks.

Marata has been fantastic playing in the middle off the bench.

A couple of new players and swapping some players around isnt going to change tonights result. It goes far deeper than that.

Unfortunately it's become increasingly clear that this is untrue, IMO.

And that's not a comment based on anything that's happened tonight nor aimed at yourself by any means.

Hehe, sure it is.
We have 3 camps in here and as there is a place for everyone on one of them.
There is the Optimist Camp, the Pessimist Camp and the Realists Camp.
There used to be 4 but Casper left.
