Rd6: Eels v Tigers GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank Stadium 18/4/22

[Poupou Escobar]

Liquid lunch and dinner is where it's at.

Makatoa and Kaufusi are borderline first graders imo. Actually, Kaufusi is probably a fringe first grader, but Maka, shouldn't be anywhere near a spot in our 17 again tbh. Kaufusi could be arrested for theft next year on current form and the $$'s the Sharks are going to pay him. But hey, Fitzgibbon might yet turn him in to the machine we have all been waiting for him to be....

That play late in the game today, Maka was all over Tamou and it was dumb play, and I'm watching thinking "let go you f**kwit, they're going to penalise you!" ... He lets go at the last minute, gets away with it...but then goes another effort and then gets penalised.... I could have strangled the peroxided merkin....

I want Rodwell to get a chance before Maka ever sees first grade again

That's fine, but our current back up is a 55K hooker, and our great white hope is a 32 year old who played his last good game like four years ago coming in off the back of not having played for a year by the time he is in our team.

Yeah plan b ain’t grand. But not overpaying also has positives

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Na

Nah dude. We need a game changer, an elite under pressure.

We lost that game over 80 minutes, not in the last five. We let the f**ken Tigers score four tries ffs.

 

[Jake the snake]

Makatoa lol. What a plodder. He has not impact at all. I honestly don't understand the love for the guy

Yeah he’s been just average.

 

[Jake the snake]

Every two points was important. We won in Melbourne ffs, we can afford to lose at home, especially during an injury crisis.

Your loser attitude is amazing. Are you sure you are not related to BA the choker. What a loser.

Yeah good plan. Satisfied with losing to last place because we beat a top two team. That's how premierships are won. Thanks for tonight's comedy routine.

 

[Leaguenutter]

You Blokes choked hard again. Complacency is a bitch

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Kaufusi could be arrested for theft next year on current form

He just made 49 post contact metres in 12 runs ffs. Second best forward on the field after Matterson. Our problem was turning over cheap possession and Kaufusi wasn't on his own there.

You'd rather we were April premiers?

Choking would imply we were ever in a spot to win the game. Tigers had us covered for the 80.

No. We lost He can get f**ked.

 

[EelsFan05]

No, I'd rather not lose to last place. Putting pressure on the first grade team in the last two weeks of the premiership to ensure a top 4 spot. While the Panthers and Storm freshen up their squad for the finals.

Huh? We had more sets in their half for a while and cause we have replacements all over the backline we faltered. Tigers played the best they can, but we had no one elite to push us through

Yeah or we had an elite player who took advantage of our opportunities which we had a few of during the game

Anyway I’m off to hit some Curse of Strahd as a level 6 halfling rogue called Shimishimiya Shimiyam Shimiyay.
Hopefully less of a horror show then todays game

 

[Glenn]

Has the end of season slump started early, or just a blip on radar? Time will tell on that, but one thing is sure and certain Parramatta won't win any games with a sub 70% completion rate.
Hopefully see a more traditional selection in the centers next week. Need to have Simba in the middle of the field.
More injury concerns with RCG and Opacic(???).
I would say things can only get better , but this is Parramatta we are talking about.

 

[Soto]

Just back from the game and summary that was $%&#ed.
We were horrible.
Their intensity was there from start. Ours wasn't.
The use of the interchange bench was again HORRENDOUS. When will this coach ever learn.
Nuikore was pretty good but should never have started and had Perham start with Penisini in his rightful position in the centre not on the wing.
The bench selection was just terrible. One genuine prop who is a honest toiler in Makatoa.
Rein who probably shouldn't play again and Matto and Perham who both should've started.
Today the worst was Lane. His runs were so ineffective.
The bench rotation stinks. Stunk last year and no learnings from the horrible use last year.
He has continued to gas Jnr and RCG.
I don't want to see Kaufusi in 1st grade again.
Rodwell and Wiremu are much better options.
Moses unfortunately when it comes to nailing the crucial plays I.e penalty goals, conversations or field goals just does not do it.
Mahoney has now effed 2 field goal situations. Mahoney is whole hearted but well below the top hookers.
I would be throwing big coin at Reece Robson to be the hooker. He is so much better...
To play like that on 75th anniversary game and in front of 28000 + fans is deplorable.
We suck and until we can consistently nail these games against the lesser sides we will never be a genuine premiership contender.
Rant over...

 

[Leaguenutter]

Nigel Matamasinghi should’ve played his second game tonight

 

[Angry_eel]

It would have been worse if we had won that game. We played well for like 10mins.

 

[84 Baby]

Hopefully see a more traditional selection in the centers next week.

Not excuses but selection from who? We’ll be lucky to name 13 tomorrow. Then again most of todays f**kers don’t deserve selection
