Rd7: Eels v Knights GAME DAY THREAD in Newcastle 24/4/22

[Poupou Escobar]

I don't mind Jake, but I'm not sure I see the value in moving a red-hot Brown to accommodate Jake...

It's not to accommodate Jake Arthur, it's because we don't have any centres.

Go in 18-2 and game over....I would of kept the ball....

 

[jk13]

Mind games, perception of insurmountable odds

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Take the two. Get the ball back. Score a try.

 

[Incorrect]

I'm happy to take the 2 and go 12 up. Gotta show the opposition some respect. If it was Panfers or Storm we'd take the 2 no questions asked

 

[T-Boon]

Moses has to be the best line break half in the game

 

[Cumberland Eel]

LOL great pass Taula

 

[hindy111]

Hurry up and set the f**kn scrums ffs

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Moses the quality field goal kicker choking under pressure again

 

[JokerEel]

Junior's foot rarely touches the ball either... I wouldn't quibble....

Yes but Junior has been pinged this season Klemmer has done it 3 times so far in this game..

[QUOTE="hindy111]Remember when I said he looked set for a big year? He was off last week. More skilled then Papa

Way more skilled.

When Lane is on, he's dynamite.

Shame he has lapses. For his occasional brilliance can be just as lazy

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Bea Arthur has finally lost whats left of his feeble little mind, last week Penisiiiiiii to the wing was apparently good for his development so is shifting Brown to the centres good for his development??? As i keep saying it's not whats best for the team it's whats best for Jakey and team Arthur. Disgusting.

Penisini played wing because of Jake Arthur? Go to therapy, merkin.

That's a good point.

But I think moving Brown, and bringing in Jake, disrupts us more than moving Matterson to centre, and keeping Dylan in the halves.

The two is boring but almost always the best option. People don't like to think about how rarely teams score tries in that situation.

For once you make complete sense.

 

[TheParraboy]

Decent 40min

Our forwards rolling through into their half easily - keep that up

We are in Pongas face with or without the ball - keep that up

Don’t need to do anything fancy, tries Will come when we get close to their line

 

[Chipmunk]

Strong half, no errors and two great plays from Shaun Lane has us up at half time.

Knights definitely seem up for this contest though

It's 2 all if Shaun Lane isn't on the field.

 

[Avenger]

Solid first half. If we don’t put on at least 30 on these guys we are not in form.

Lane has become very important to us especially in attack and people putting shit on him know very little about the game.

 

[hindy111]

Jake has missed a lot of tackles, put in a poor kick and a hospital ball to N.Brown.
Other then that he looks OK.

But do you remember after the first trial I said he looks set for a big year? It was me who said it if you where wondering.
