Rd24 2024: 8pm Eels v Chooks GAME DAY THREAD @ Allianz Stadium Aug 16th

[the phantom menace]

Clear shoulder charge let go. Missed the hip drop in play by Radley earlier as well. But penalises us there

I think Radley is on report for something... flashed up on the Ch 9 screen.

f**k the Panthers have a serious job on their hands to teach Talagi how to defend. He is f**king putrid.

Honestly it's not even just defence, it's just anything when he doesn't have the ball in his hand. He puts absolutely no effort into anything that isn't him running the ball.

 

[Wally21]

Our edge defence is world class

 

[the phantom menace]

Gee Talagi and Tago are going to be targeted all game, unfortunately Tago is slow and small and Blaize is suspect in defence.

Supersub Sivo to the rescue from the bench!

 

[the phantom menace]

Penisini would have dropped that even if it was dry.

 

[Wally21]

Our edge defence is world class

Penis has about 3 missed tackles so far and one drop ball. Elite

 

[Avenger]

I appreciate its shit conditions but Penisini is even more shit.

 

[oldmancraigy]

I appreciate its shit conditions but Penisini is even more shit.

Barrett before the game "play to the conditions boys"

Penisini "YES SIR!!"

 

[JokerEel]

No one knows how to play the ball anymore..

 

[Parra Pride]

Finally time for us to get the 50 I guess.

 

[Wally21]

It’s gonna get ugly

 

[JokerEel]

I appreciate its shit conditions but Penisini is even more shit.

Great defense

 

[Avenger]

Shaun Russell beaten because he has no pace.

 

[the phantom menace]

Dead easy again. Topou knew he had that from 25m out with three defenders to beat.

 

[Delboy]

Pretty frustrating watching Saab, Ola’kuata and now Tupou all come through our juniors having a field day.

 

[Cumberland Eel]

how the f**k do you let a 52yr old Tupou get around ya in these conditions??

 

[Avenger]

f**k me there are so many players that won’t be here in a couple of years time.

 

[Wally21]

A

Shaun Russell beaten because he has no pace.

And just shit

 

[Soto]

And we had to have thus f@^#&$& of a ref...gutho wanted to challenge the knock on and wouldn't let him.
Plus they are absolutely laying all over..
And he gives them a 6 again and we are a man down....he's putrid

 

[the phantom menace]

Almost a point a minute... but the Roosters are only warming up and getting used to the wet conditions.
