Rd25: Parra v Storm GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank 1/9/22

[Eelectrica]

Agreed. Munster's a big dummy.

 

[Eelectrica]

Great defense

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Wingers trusting their centres?!? WTF is going on???

 

[strider]

For all the ball we've had we arent creating much. Storm look more dangerous. Waqa looks lost and confused out there.

They r a good defensive team ... we need to just stick at it. They will tire a bit

 

[Cumberland Eel]

great tackle Will

 

[Chipmunk]

We've set the ground work here. We look fresh as.

Carry on with exactly what we're doing and we'll get the win.

Storm look dangerous with the ball though.

 

[strider]

Our edge defense has been pretty good

 

[Eelectrica]

Great half defensively. Wish we had have converted more of that possession into points though.

 

[oldmancraigy]

Did RCG just play 40?

Barlow should be nice and fresh for the back end of the game

 

[eels_fan]

Great half. Defence when storm have been in good field positions has been fantastic. Control has been great. Would have been nice to have iced another try, but hard to complain

Yes. 90% Marata score but the ref blocked the view.
Penisni should of taken ball. Could be 20 nil.

Need to be first to score in 2nd half. That will break them. Our defense has been very good. I feel we don't play much footy and need to move it a little more once they tire.
Should be a cracking 2nd half.

 

[Jake the snake]

Great first half. Penisini should’ve caught that ball. Sitter.

 

[84 Baby]

Now if we win the 2nd half, we’ll win the game!

It's not about winning big, it's about winning. For us that means staying patient and controlling the ball. We don't have the speed or the tackle breakers for reliably getting big scores. We need the opposition to panic or give up.

 

[Avenger]

I’ll say it now and I’ll say it again. There is no team that are grubbier in the ruck than the Storm. They are a cancer to the NRL and they started it all. And I hate that pigeon toed milker, Cameron Munster. Their entire team are full of grubs and it all started with Ribot back in the 90’s and has continued with their whingeing and spluttering Navratilova looking coach.

 

[The Phelan Folly]

Any of you merkins who think that Brad Arthur is a shit coach can lick that bit between my arsehole and my balls. I’ll even pay you $12.50 each time you do it. Just a a sweetener……

 

[Bandwagon]

Not the greatest in attack there, but defense has been outstanding, our scramble has been good, and we're using the sideline as the 14th defender really f**king well.

 

[hindy111]

Our backs need to start helping the forwards more. Made 130mtrs between the 4 of them. Not good enough.

RCG has been unbelievable. It's clear to me BA doesn't trust Makatoa enough in a tense game like this.

 

[eels_fan]

We keep defending like we did in that half and we win regardless of how many more points we score. Our centre/wing defence can been immense and that’s a very weird thing to say about our team

 

[Gronk]

Storm line speed is keeping them in the game.

We got dis.
