Rd23 2024: 8pm Eels v Panthers GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank Stadium Aug 9th

[the phantom menace]

I’m just going to start singing hymns

Oh God our help in ages past
Our hope for years to come
Our shelter from the stormy blast
And our eternal home.

Under the shadow of thy throne
Thy saints have dwelt secure
Sufficient in thine arm alone
And our defence is sure.

I think that second verse really hammers home the point

Until our defence becomes unsure and lets in 40 points...

 

[T-Boon]

Someone explain to me why that piece of shit blaize isn’t on the bench in jersey flegg?

 

[Cumberland Eel]

Well it was fun while it lasted

 

[lucablight]

Lmao @ that “defence”

 

[Gherkin]

Would be nice to get some home crowd refereeing tonight. That wasn’t a high tackle

 

[Cumberland Eel]

Good hit Woody

 

[Wally21]

Talagi in defence looks like a slow train crash

 

[Wally21]

Beautiful piece of attack.

 

[Cumberland Eel]

Noice!! The lads have turned up to play tonight

 

[84 Baby]

Talagi will be the second coming of Willie Tonga

 

[Wally21]

Talagi will be the second coming of Willie Tonga

If Willie Tonga didn’t know how to defend

 

[Wally21]

Talagi is the laziest merkin in defence since Maila Sivo

 

[Cumberland Eel]

Left edge is so f**king passive in defence

 

[lucablight]

Send Talagi to Penrith! Oh wait….

 

[Gherkin]

This is ridiculous continuously kicking it straight to them on last. They’re getting momentum on first tackle and we’re struggling the rest of the set. Works with Moses length and depth but not Asi

 

[Wally21]

Left edge is so f**king passive in defence

ASI looked like Dylan Brown in defence last week. This week he looks like ASI. As for Talagi, he is f**king putrid

 

[Cumberland Eel]

FFS Lane you slug

 

[Wally21]

FFS Lane you slug

Normal programming has resumed for Lane this week.

 

[Soto]

Can someone explain why this ref is a spastic???

 

[eels_fan]

Lane’s effort and energy levels is horrendous.
