So bad

 

[The Predictor]

People hang a lot of shit on simmo, with good reason on occasion, but id have the bastard who tries his ass off every game opposed to the lump who goes through the motions!!!

 

[Tiger5150]

We're the home side ffs. We should be getting the calls.

NRL giving Parra all the leg ups, trying to get them home this year...

 

[Jake the snake]

Lussick he’s pathetic

When the car manufacturers created a handbrake they saw Joey Lussick's face

 

[84 Baby]

Seriously f**ken Matterson. How can you be that f**ken lazy to be inside 10 on a 10m kick

 

[Cumberland Eel]

I don’t whose to blame but can our halves get the ball in oppositions 20 FFS

And so they should. Every rugby league fan wants to see Parra win a comp

Someone forgot to take dearden to the toss haha

We started off pretty lethargic, but we've warmed into the contest as the game has gone along. Gutho definitely trying to fire us up throughout the half, which has got us going.

Both teams giving their opponents plenty of chances with either errors or penalties. Cowboys have bombed plenty of opportunities, which has kept us in the contest.

We appear to have come with our very own unorthodox game plan to just off load and throw the ball wide at every opportunity.

Interesting to see how this pans out in the second half. We're in the lead and close enough if we're good enough.

 

[Jake the snake]

Don’t know how we’re in front. Just need to complete our sets FMD

 

[eels_fan]

More calls go our way today than the rest of the season combined

we need some luck, but we better take advantage of it

and god help us if we need Gutho to kick an important goal.

Missed last week's game?

 

[eels_fan]

Here’s a novel idea.
Hold onto the ball and don’t shoot out of the line in defence 10m off our line and we may actually win

 

[JokerEel]

What calls have gone our way?

 

[Soto]

Character...is all I can say.
Cowgirls are very frustrated and agitated
Show the same grit and commitment and we can win this...looooong way to go but we need to complete our sets

 

[Pazza]

Edges have got a bit more mobility this week with the changes . Has helped with defense

The Tigers are the most penalised team (per game) in the comp this season: https://www.nrl.com/stats/teams/?competition=111&season=2024&stat=1000026

Conceding penalties until the ref gets tired of blowing his whistle is a known tactic. The Storm and Roosters are two of the most penalised teams every single year.

 

[Eelogical]

I don’t whose to blame but can our halves get the ball in oppositions 20 FFS

But, what would they do with it?

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Going ok, considering our completion rate and amount of possession!

defence has been pretty good, except for the occasionally poor decision, re Harpers poor decision.

Just need to limit errors and complete our sets, complete our sets, complete our sets!
