Rd22: 750pm Parra v Storm GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank 31/7/25

[the phantom menace]

Yeah, not sold on what De Silva brings.

He's better than Lussick I suppose, but not as good as Smith.

 

[Parrapat]

So that's a knock on?

 

[the phantom menace]

Wow, ref pinged Grant for milking in attack!

 

[Snoochies]

Meh, we coughed up some bad plays but took the premiership favourites all the way. Next season is looking great. I'm just glad we are competing, they are fun to watch again.
The test is do we play at this level against teams we should beat or do we drop our standard.

 

[Gherkin]

That is such a dumb rule. Benefits us, but should just be play on

 

[the phantom menace]

C'mon Eels, 1m30sec and on the attack...

 

[Chipmunk]

Look, the Storm are a genuine title contender. We're running around with the worst squad in the comp and are battling to get out of the bottom 4.

Given those circumstances, I'm pretty happy with that effort overall.

We're obviously improving every time we take the field, and for this group were they're at, you can't expect a lot more than that display.

Could've gone either way, not a lot in it really. But, at no stage did I feel we'd actually win the game, but we went close.

We had more than enough opportunities to do something really. The Storm played well also though.

 

[the phantom menace]

Oh, and Junior drops it two metres out... a bit of a theme for the game.

All over now.

Gave them a good run in tonight's conditions, but just too much dropped ball and possession turnovers.

 

[T.S Quint]

f**k you Melbourne.

 

[Wally21]

Well done boys. Tough to lose but f**k me we were in it for the entire game. Add a couple of top flight players and we are challenging for the top 4

 

[Soto]

Hopgood and Lomax cost parra...2 of the worst players in the game

 

[Parrapat]

Yeah, not sold on what De Silva brings.

He's better than Lussick I suppose, but not as good as Smith.

100%

Smith brings so much energy, enthusiasm and infectious attitude and though TDS has a beautifal pass Smith's is more than servicably good.

 

[senior]

2 points gone begging

Doesn't matter too much but f**k me we should've won that

 

[Noise]

Hopgood and Lomax cost parra...2 of the worst players in the game

I’d drop them both. Simonssen on the wing

 

[Soren Lorenson]

Hopgood and Lomax cost parra...2 of the worst players in the game

Lomax was awful tonight

 

[Gary Gutful]

It was a long-term ambush set up involving a reverse ambush in Round 1 to put them off the scent.

Playing a longer game than I thought.

 

[Jake the snake]

Hopgood is so f**king shitttttttttt

 

[Wally21]

Hopgood and Lomax cost parra...2 of the worst players in the game

Mate, Lomax didn’t have a great game. But is he playing injured? To say he is one of the worst players in the game?? I think you may rethink that when you calm down brother

 

[Soto]

Da Silva gets way too many minutes.
Smith should be playing 55...Da Silva looks sharp but doesn't do anything

 

[Matty Bhoy]

Excellent effort from the boys. Some stuff to work on. Sutton was utterly dog shit tonight. I’d chip in for a 10k blow up.
