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

[Delboy]

BA is a good manager but a terrible coach.

Strange comment, what’s happened to say that. You don’t like him for some resaon

 

[Gronk]

Do we get Moretti because we lost the winger with HIA from a felony that’s on report?

 

[JokerEel]

We’ve completed at 94%.

We have to continue to complete at above 90% to stand a chance

Nope

Was about ask this! I would assume so...

The one time we could have had Blaize in the 18

 

[JokerEel]

Nope

Does it have to be a sin bin?

 

[Gronk]

Wow I tell you theyre playing like a top side so far, hardly any errors handled the pressure well despite losing a winger. Forwards are killing it. Keep it up boys

Need to get some fresh legs out next to Harper.

I’m finding the forwards battle very frustrating. When Penrith has their starters on they seem to be too fast for us. They make easy metres whilst restricting ours. We got lucky RCG steamrolled JFH but while he was on there we were getting owned in the middle.

 

[Sensei Cobra]

Gusty effort and whatever happens from here I think we have a side thst can give it a shake if we stay fit

 

[Pazza]

Let's cross to Penrith legend Brandy in the studio

Yuck

gus is super intolerable tonight

 

[Eelogical]

Definitely not getting the 50/50 calls tonight. To be truthful we've done amazingly well to be in front at half time.

Junior off the bench is definitely the way to go, but Offengaue starting instead I don't think is the answer. I think it will work OK with Greig in the side.

We look pretty vulnerable though, particularly our left edge. Having said that, Panthers don't look defensively strong inside their 20 metres.

Both teams have squandered a couple of chances.

Interesting to see how things pan out in this second half. I'm not really sure to be honest. Really want the 50/50 calls to start to go our way though.

I'd settle for 100/0

 

[Sensei Cobra]

Eg: don’t get an outside back taken out of the game of the game on the 1st.m minute of play

 

[Eelogical]

We’ve completed at 94%.

Done pretty well thus far.

 

[Sensei Cobra]

I’d liked then idea of junior coming off the bench but think we missed him in the early exchanges and probably would have been better with him on to counter penriths rushing defence

 

[King-Gutho94]

Does it have to be a sin bin?

Yes sin bin activates it

 

[TheCrowe]

Do we get Moretti on the bench now since it was foul play. Can't remember the current rule.

 

[Stevie]

Can we please jet pack a f**king big strong centre to hit the gutzy stuff for us please?

 

[Pazza]

we still need to make a change to that left side, penrith are going to keep going there

 

[Soto]

Here's an idea. Hands to defend at 5/8 and dylbro at centre. Hands to make dummy half scoots in attack

Yeah they need to fix that side, Harpers tried but needs support out there
