Rd16: Parra v Titans GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank 22/6/25

[eels_fan]

Dean Hawkins is basically where Sexton was 12 months ago. I’d be giving him a crack at 6 next season.

He’s an organising 7. He’s not a 6. Isn’t now, never will be.

 

[Legal Eel]

I wouldn't be defending my club if merkins weren't so keen to tear it down.

One of your more blatant lies.

Just yesterday you admitted that if people thought MON was killing it that you would outright oppose this view and point out his failings.

You are here for the trolling and not to be taken serious

 

[Poupou Escobar]

How the insipid Penisni comes away with two tries in this win is a little laughable.

But a win is a win! Pou can put the post-match vaso away for another round...

Keep the vaso out merkin. We won despite your death riding.

 

[Parra Pride]

Kk, 16 runs, 189m, 35 tackles at 97%, 4 TB, 1LB..,,

I thought he was pretty good....

He's a project but I do think he has only been improving as the year goes on.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

it's very confusing because we defended well through the middle against Panthers and Bulldogs (until the last 20m)

It shouldn't be confusing. Penrith and Canterbury's middle forwards aren't very good in attack, so they are easy to contain. They are mostly toilers. However the Titans have a bunch of big strong forwards who run the ball well (but defend poorly).

Sexton is a great defender. Hawkins isn't, though he was pretty good today thanks to good support either side of him.

No vaso needed here - it's purely for your use while posting on the forum from your place, where you're surrounded by (self) love....

@Poupou Escobar thinks we can’t remember what he said yesterday or any day for that matter. On LU it is scientifically known as Pou Circular Logic.

98 PCM as well. He's a beast.

No, I would say stick to what you can observe, not what you think is going on behind the scenes. The same thing I say when you criticise non-playing staff. Do you see? Praise and criticism need to be justified, and you can't justify either because you don't know what these people do. Stick to commenting on the players, because their contribution is broadcast on TV for your viewing pleasure.

Hawkins is good at defense has been sliding well to cover the caps in defense really impressed with the work he puts in

 

[Poupou Escobar]

No vaso needed here

I bet.

 

[PARRA_FAN]

In Ryles we trust. I was happy with the win.

 

[King-Gutho94]

Straw poll… we keeping Joash at 6 next week? I say absolutely. Time to look forward. I have no idea what that means for Dylan and the safer bet is he’s our 6 next weekend, but I feel it’s time to cut the cord with him.

A 4 x premiership winner agreed with me post game.

Drown to centres next week to replace Penisini who will be suspended.

Don't change the halves keep the status Quo

Drown can handle the new position defensively fine

 

[The Phelan Folly]

You’re not f**king wrong.

I don't think I've ever seen so many brain-dead comments in a match day thread in one half of football than this game.

Pou defended a fraud like BA to the bitter end.

Despite him being past his use by date 2 x years ago some may say even longer

BA teared the the club down more then what he calls "Deadshits" online have ever done.

Haven't us all "Deadshits" been proven right now with BA out the door.

The coaching hasn't been better in this joint since DA was running the show.

 

[85 Baby]

I bet.

[King-Gutho94]

Is Simonsen ready next week because we will lose Penisini.

We have Dylan Brown back next week

He can play centre and done a decent job previously in that role.

He isnt the future in the halves so Dylan can fill gaps for the rest of the year where we need him

 

[Poupou Escobar]

That basically indicates that the coaching staff think both the players we have playing centre are shit, and they need both winners to play two positions.

No it means the better attacking players come infield to get early ball in our half.

 

[Gary Gutful]

Iongi getting better and better.
