Rd 10 Parra v Manly GAME DAY thread 18/7/20

I reckon he's a bit harsh on Dylan Brown, tbh.

Not saying he is a bad player Eele, or not going to be great for us. But maybe I still have the “I’m going to be worth a million. Year” quote in the back of my mind.

 

[Matty Bhoy]

I can’t get too down about that. We played pretty rotten for the most part and it was 4 tries a piece. In years gone by we’d have lost by 40 odd. Instead we fought and got back into it.

 

[84 Baby]

not really we made 2200m to their 1400m, only missed 30 tackles to their 39. And it was 3 line breaks each.

And it was 4 tries each ..

Yeah you could feel Reed & Drown's inexperience with chasing points. We weren't setting up plays correctly. The second Suli came back on, we had to be crashing down the right to set up Gutho/Jenko/Sivo on left. We did it once and scored. Every other time we either didn't set up or we didn't go left. Even though he plays the other side, Moses would help here.

 

[Mr Parramatta]

It finished 4 tries to 4...

We kept them scoreless in the second half...

I'm not proud of our effort in the first 20 minutes, but we pegged back some pride in the second half, imo.

It's just a shame that the first 20 minutes of patheticness cost us the game.

People are either stupid or don’t understand that the Parra of old would have folded 15 minutes in, that’s the difference, couple of successful goal kicks, anybody’s game. Never happy with a loss especially against these turds, but we never quit!!

 

[Joshuatheeel]

I reckon our performance from tonight’s game was pretty similar from the last 2 weeks except tonight we made 2 poor reads on the try line (tries 2 and 3).

last 2 weeks knights / cowboys both started pretty strongly but defence keep us in the game and we didn’t leak any easy tries. So we didn’t need to chase points but tonight without Moses we were exposed with the difficulties of chasing points against a desperate side without your top line half.

we will be better for it.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Put it this way,ba

Back to back premiers can have an off night... We're a club that have been a punchline for 30 years. Appearances matter.

We were missing a bunch of players, including our chief playmaker, our Origin winger and our best defender. We also lost Nrown during the game. We were up against it as well.

 

[emjaycee]

Have they said what sivos injury is? I’m thinking hyperextended.

Fox hasn't mentioned it yet... although they are about to.

 

[TheParraboy]

Good news for Sivo

Seems just some bruising on the knee, should be ok for Thursday

 

[Matty Bhoy]

Sivo’s knee bruised. Sounds like he’s good to go according to Fox Sports. Good news if accurate.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Would you rather lose to a team we're competing with for a top four spot?

No. I can understand why people feel that way but if the trade off is you beat your top four rivals then I'll take that.

 

[Rocket man]

And Lane pushed him down, hence why he got up and complained. He doesn’t push him it doesn’t happen, simples.

You see it twenty times a game hands on the player I lever yourself up. Get up whingeing six again. Happens constantly in games.

 

[Happy MEel]

I reckon he's a bit harsh on Dylan Brown, tbh.

He was decent in broken play and for the most part defended well, but he couldn’t organise a root in a brothel. Dylan’s at his best when he doesn’t have to organise anything and can just play what’s in front of him.

He was ordinary today (And last week) with the added responsibility

 

[Incorrect]

On the positives, I thought that stranger wearing #21 didn't look out of place at all and should be proud of his performance...

 

[Pazza]

Fox sports reporting no major injury to sivo

 

[Eelementary]

Nothing, I meant the response to what you said was a strange thing to say. I’m sure we were all proud when we fought back to beat penrith, regardless that we didn’t play 80 in that game.
As you were Eela, I’m with you

Ah, cool - gotcha!

 

[Joshuatheeel]

and our young playmakers panicked.

lacked the experience.....

 

[Dibs]

I think he was just lucky they didnt run at him he would have found a way to let them score.

I don’t know if you are trying to be funny, but if not this is a stupid thing to say

 

[emjaycee]

Fox hasn't mentioned it yet... although they are about to.

Apparently not too serious.

 

[84 Baby]

Not saying he is a bad player Eele, or not going to be great for us. But maybe I still have the “I’m going to be worth a million. Year” quote in the back of my mind.

Thought quite harsh on Field as well. Was anyone actually expecting him to legitimately pressure Moses' spot?

 

[Dibs]

Have they said what sivos injury is? I’m thinking hyperextended.

Not to bad apparently, maybe just bruising
