Rd11: Eels v Manly GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank 20/5/22

Lol. What the hell was that by Okolatu

Reality is it took us 10 mins against a turbo less 12 men Manly to score in the corner. And 3 bad ref calls our way. Perham penalty, Brown was offside for the line drop out and Jnrs forward pass knock on.

Manly with 12 men had us at sixers and sevens in that last set.

N.Brown looks a parl footy player. Rubbish.

Best players where Mahoney and Papali'i oh dam we let them go.

Seriously 3 horrid reffs call our way in last 10 mins. Including the sin bin. Was nothing more then a penalty.

We won yes. But I disliked how we lost our way and panicked with 15 to go and only down by 4. We lost our cool. Not a good sign.

Yes but some horrific calls against us too!
The Moses sin bin was an absolute joke. The offence itself wasn’t a bin let alone going back 2/3 plays to do it !
A Manly player commits a way worse example but just gets penalised.
What about the Tapau stiff arm across the face in front of the sticks?
What about the Manlys forward passes?

Our defensive structures are fine and we can score whenever we want too.

I'd be tempted for a tripple shuffle.
Russel,Sivo Blake all in. At the very least Waqa and Sivo on wongs and keep Opacic. Simmonson I am not big on.

Agreed.

How was that 3 poor ref calls for us? They were lucky they didn’t have 3 in the bin, RCG arm to the head and Pensini (how was that different to Moses binning?) were binning offences!

Additionally they also has us without 10 and it’s easier to defend with out middle then a half….

I tell you why it's different. Manlys situation was a try if not slowed down. Penisini was not going to be or very unlikely a try.

Well I had a shit day today missing going to the game as I caught COVID. But that has made up for it. Does anyone know if beers are frowned upon with COVID

Yeah there’s a few pubs around the northern beaches. Go there with a parra jersey, they’ll appreciate it

 

[yy_cheng]

Yeah, stay strong avenger

 

[hindy111]

I watched ch 9. All of them reckon the Perham shot was a tough call. Jnrs pass deff forward and N.Brown was certainly offside.
So I get called a f**king moron? We got some huge calls that last 10 mins.

 

[JokerEel]

No I see it how it is. Jnrs pass was forward. N.Brown was office on the grubber and Perham did what? Slid backward into a guy making a match winning tackle.

Are you cross eyed?

 

[IFR33K]

My father who passed away today was a Parra fan and my son who was dad’s favourite said that Moses would kick the goal for deda.

God bless you, Mitchell.

We both cried as the full time siren sounded.

Sorry for the loss mate. Putting things in perspective, this is only a footy game. God bless your family

 

[hindy111]

Mahoney has been shit.

He throws hospital balls all game doesn't know what the defence is doing when he is dummy half. Line speed should be controlled by him in defence but it is slow.

I thought he was our best. Certainly top 3.

So so sorry mate!

My condolences for your loss Venge! Thoughts and prayers for you and your family at this extremely difficult time.

I don't get the rcg head high. How come they can go 2 plays back to catch Moses but can't look at the current play on rcg?

RCG shouldve got up and stumbled

 

[JokerEel]

I thought he was our best. Certainly top 3.

Gutho
Matto
Moses

Top 3

I'm not sure what to think really.

That was a game we never should've won, but we did, and at this stage of the season 2 points is still 2 points.

Again we've failed to turn up for a contest with the right attitude. Manly were definitely up for it, but we just wanted to run through the motions and try and go around them at the start. I've never seen a team want to play away from it's strengths so often. Surely this is instructed to somehow strengthen the weaknesses and we'll play to our strengths when it matters. I really don't know what we're trying to achieve otherwise.

In the end, we won because our opponents played the last 8 minutes with 12 players.

We have so much that needs to improve.

Crapau’s clear high shot, Fat Turbo making 40 tackles with 30 of them being second, third and fourth efforts, Moses getting binned for getting tangled with Glass Turbo but having no effect on play.
And Drown got penalised last week for a softer tackle on a falling player.
Shit calls go both way dickhead
