R19 MNF - BRONCOS v EELS *Match Thread*

[Bazal]

12-0...that was also the 50th FG try for Nathan, so well done....

That must be a sin bin!! This ref is a f**king moron

 

[Bazal]

It's mind boggling that we keep taking these shots at goal, when we have sides on the ropes :crazy: Ah well, 14-0

 

[raiders fan forever]

great try by hindmarsh set up but tahu and inu

 

[salivor]

This is going to get embarrasing. To go into a match against the one of the best attacking sides in the comp with a team lineup with only 1 to 2 tries max in them is just insanity. I can accept the injuries but when you shoot yourself in the foot further and leave out the likes of Perry, Moon, Lacey and Te Reo, it's just bloody frustrating to put it mildly.

 

[jimmyo]

I want a half century here, pile 'em on Parra, lets BBQ some BBs

 

[Timmah]

14-0 Penalty goes over.

Another try and Parramatta will go quite quickly past the 40 point gap later on.

 

[Bazal]

Oh my f**king god...how do you miss either of those knock ons??? Thank god we're 14 up

 

[Tekken Lord]

Tim Smith misses another field goal attempt

 

[salivor]

Bennett better have the half time speech of his life lined up as he's gonna need it to get us out of this stupid game plan he's going with.

 

[jimmyo]

Bahaha FG attempt...15-0 would make all the difference. Tim Smith shows his game awareness levels are optimum.

Good first half from the Eels there, although they could have pressed their advantage a bit more...

First one was off the boot, second was played at by Hindmarsh. You could debate otherwise, but Cummins definitely had a case with the calls he made.

Yes, because looking for as many points as you can get is criminal in this close competition :roll: The anti Tim Smith sentiments on these boards are getting beyond a joke

 

[Tekken Lord]

I can't figure why he went for the FG

 

[Mr Saab]

Smith cant kick a field goal to save himself
Brisbane cant string 3 passes together as well as what Tim Smith takes field goals

There's a case with the second one, but you see those week in and week out ruled knockon...The first one, we were denied a try because Grothe knocked it forward into his own hand last week...then again I guess consistency is too much to ask of the current crop of geniuss...er, referees

 

[PARRA_FAN]

Theyve got some great attacking ability Parramatta, Hayne, Inu, Tahu, Mateo even Hauraki. Theyve got the ability to go around 1-2 Brisbane defenders tonight, and get an offload away.

Its one thing Im impressed with them tonight its their attack up the middle and out wide.

14-0 is still good, they needed to take the goal, take every opportunity given especially against

Just hope they use guys like Inu, Hayne and Tahu up the middle more, when the Broncos defenders arent expecting it.

 

[Tipster]

Broncos won't get blown out, they will make it respectable in the second half

He was in perfect position to put in a kick for Inu which is a 50/50 chance at a try so far - a much better option for points.

Do you honestly think Parra's season is going to hinge on one point even if he does kick it? That's a ridiculous suggestion. It was a selfish waste of good psition to give himself practice at kicking FGs in real game situations.

Tim Smith is the most unpredictable half in the comp - that makes him hard to play against and hard to support. Personally I reserve my right to saw whatever I want about him, if you're so far up his a#*e that you can't take it, then leave.

It is too much to ask, the standard of refereeing is disgraceful.

:lol::lol: Did I ever suggest our season would hang on that one point? Dry your eyes mate, I'm not the only Parra fan sick of the senseless bagging, and if that fact wounds you so deeply I suggest you take your own advice
