Rd 2 2024: 8pm Penrith v Eels GAME DAY THREAD @ Bluebet Stadium March 15th

[King-Gutho94]

He's inept every night

No coinindence the best game we have seen reffed in the past 10-15 years was last years GF when Ashley Klein, Gerard Sutton who have bene considered the 2 best refs in the game weren't there.

Adam Gee showed them both up in his 1st ever big game then what those 2 have done in the past 30 Origins and 10 Grand finals

Come on they aren’t going to blow a penalty every time there’s a player in front of a kicker . Yeo is standing where he played the ball until the ball is kicked toward him and he moves forward to get out of the way but he moves away from ball. The rule is about kick chasers gaining advantage sprinting down field before the ball is kicked past them, there was a clear advantage to doing that. There was attempt to gain an advantage in what Yeo did he is just getting out of the way.

It's not a player Infront of the kicker it's Infront of where the ball is played when it is kicked.

There isn't a but in the rules it's black and white.

In this instance as Yeo played the ball I don't think it's a penalty but I could be wrong

Better side win. End of story.
Penrith greased their arses

An unsurprising comment from Hindy, not sure the result would have been a Panfers win if we had been able to play a full complement of players inc wingers. Luaia is hit with a feather , should have got minimum sin bin for either of his offences. Nikora gets a suspension when the player he hit laughed it off and never missed a beat. Simmonson has to leave the field and nothing . Assisted by the useless Atkins as video ref on more than one occasion, then there is Klein not following the new rules laid out at the start of the season, who would have thought that would happen ( everyone).

On the ineptitude of Klein did we get a six again on our 30m line last night?

Thought it was a penalty before the 40m line?

I'm being honest. The vicous fish only played 25mins. They dropped the ball over the line twice as well. We did well in the first half ut our 2nd was ordinary. We didn't look like making a break. Score line flattered us in the end.
We need Sivo back and a strike centre to be any chance this season which I think we are if snagged a LOMAX.

Fish got destroyed by Reg.

The scoreline would have been different if officiated to the actual rules.

Ok ok the better side lost. We where dudded by reffs. We've got the side to win the Comp and don't need to improve at all or make changes to the squad. Just unlucky otherwise we win easily.

No one said that.

but there was multiple occasions where we clearly were dudded. If we weren’t dudded would the result have been the same? Thats conjecture, but I reckon we score 1-2 more tries while Luai sits in the bin and that changes the complexion of the game.

Penrith won - good on em. We lost - have to move on.

it’s round 2 - if we don’t have 50% improvement in us (as every team should) over the next 24 weeks then there’s a problem.

We ahead of both of last years grand finalists on the table.

JFH got injured using a shoulder charge on Reg, nothing from the MRC. Panfers are the new koalas it seems. Losing a winger is the ultimate impossibility to cover, think about that.

 

[Wally21]

Imagine if Penrith actually played good and didn’t bomb 4 tries.

I wonder how it feels to have so many f**king grubs in your team? I guess at least you get rid of the biggest grub after this season.

How the hell was it a penalty against Carty when Edwards was rubbing his hand in his face..

Oh that's right Klein..

JFH got injured by a late shot.

Who are these grubs you speak of, I’m interested to know.

 

[Gronk]

There was no reason Brown couldn’t have defended at centre but played five eighth in attack.

I see. So Dylan moves to outside Lane and that solves all the problems. So simple.

Late shot is that what Reg did? Looked early...

Probably wouldn't have had Penrith run around us so much but who knows now .

 

[Poupou Escobar]

You'd think an 11yr coach would have a game plan if you lost a back wouldn't you? . It's not un common to lose someone in your backline.
He thought Talagi was the answer? Maybe after 10 linebreaks he will get the picture. Mattersons defending at 5/8 amd Dylan to centre perhaps in defense... BUSH COACH

That would mean Matterson (presumably, unless you had another plan that you haven’t outlined or more likely even thought about) being removed from his usual role. Playing Matterson out wide removes him from our middle rotation, which has a huge impact on attack and defence. These are things the BUSH COACH understands that you haven’t even considered ffs.

 

[hineyrulz]

Mrc and judiciary are as strong as a weak cup of tea

Good double for our coach who once again refused to say boo to a goose.
