Rd13: Parra v Penrith GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank 1/6/25

[Matty Bhoy]

Surely nobody is gutted at that. Top effort from a young squad. We go again!

Samrani isn’t ready yet

He is behind Penisini and Simonsson in the depth chart. How many first grade outside backs should a club have?

Some very pleasing signs in this game. Last 2 wins were against an understrength Manly and a Knights team that are not performing well. Today we played the 4 x premiers and nearly got the result.

Major improvement in our defensive resolve. No soft tries scored - we made them earn the 3 they got.

We lost because Cleary decided to kick like prime El Masri and pulled a 40/20 out of his arse. What can you do?

At least I saw Pacers make NBA finals today

penrith still need the ref to help them win. That 6a for JAC making a legs tackle was BS. Williams' ball clearly touched the line. We played tough and with a bit more experience we win that game

 

[Delboy]

Replace Samrami with Papalli. I think that would be the better option.

Wouldn’t work Papalii would get targeted and don’t think he would cope in that position.

 

[jk13]

We brave now

Nice of Smugs to decide that this is the game they stop being shit

Were you expecting three in a row? I was, but reality thought differently.

How the f**k do Penrith play like absolute shit for 12 rounds

And they play semi final footy against us

There is some good signs but “nearly” isn’t good enough

Their starting forward pack was the strongest it’s been for a while.

 

[Eelogical]

Probably the proudest loss in a long time. Provided we keep playing like this, no spoon for us.

I thought Riley Smith played his guts out.

Do we need to through 27 rounds undefeated to be good enough?

 

[Eelogical]

Panfers needed their A game to beat us !

Let's face it. This current team also brought their A game.

 

[Pazza]

great effort, team is getting a lot better but i just feel like that side to side stuff needed some balance with some tough running through the middle.

It’s what the good teams do

Admittedly I have had approximately acht Deutsche Bienen on this sunny Sunday arvo. But I thought the exact same thing.

At least I saw Pacers make NBA finals today

And LAFC into the FIFA Club World Cup!

We were beaten by a better team on the day. No excuses but lessons learned.
