RD7 V Tigers ANZ Stadium

[Poupou Escobar]

Allgood has a go and doesn't let us down in defence. Terepo was shithouse against the Chooks.

Don't think it's our home game.....home team generally listed first in the draw which is Tiges, and there is no mention in our STH package that we have a home game v WT...only dogs and bunnies

We are listed first in the draw.

Take a look @ the home games from our 'official website' draw
http://www.parraeels.com.au/content/eels/club/draw-results/nrl.html

You will notice there are 12 games where we are listed first, this being one of them.


It's a no-brainer to have moved this game to ANZ, it sold out on a regular basis for a number of years. Part of me wonders if that was because of the Hayne vs Benji thing? All the kids want to come and watch that?

Anyway, someone reported 26k tickets sold yesterday, so seems like the right move.

Terepo is a work in progress, needs to develop some skills to his play and his hands can really let him down.

Allgood i thought was good against Roosters and Gower has shown he deserves to be there. I thought Allgood would have been the one to miss out but that bench looks 'safe' Peni has dropped the ball at crucial times either before the line or at the start of a set v Brisbane. But i expect to see him back because he has been promoted to the starting side recently. I'd say Arthur has told him to work on things like he did with Sandow

 

[Jake the snake]

Yep that's right and Mitch allgood could count himself lucky too..

He's been counting himself lucky for the last 3 years.

Looks like Peni has suffered the wrath of BA for his recent misses in defence. There was one in the Penrith game that BA wasnt happy about and I think one on the weekend. I recall BA saying that those little rooms for improvement are the things that matter and the things they work on removing from each players game.

i'm pretty sure he was the forward inside Sandow when Tupou went past and didn't really make an effort to dive for him

 

[Maroubra Eel]

Yep it's our home game, we are giving away our home ground advantage.
It's f**king bullshit!

Some of us on here were lucky enough to have a session with BA after the Penrith game and BA highlighted a lazy defensive play by Peni and actually commented something to the effect "if he does that again he wont be playing FG".

Mind you Peni wasnt the only one he highlighted at the time.

Good to see BA is not allowing mistakes to become accepted and is demoting players who dont fix the things he wants fixed IMHO.

Awesome power though. He's got plenty of upside if he can fix his mistakes.

Junior Paulo is the one who was unlucky, absolutely awesome against the Bonco's but gets dropped. Peni was average against Easts and gets dropped which is maybe a little harsh as well.


Anyone else think our bench is a bit of the same/same????

That was Fui.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I suspect we are actually starting with our number 1 and 4 props, and bringing props 2 and 3 off the bench. There's no way Fui's a better player than Lussick.

I'm sure Paulo will be in the 17 by year's end.

Pauli provides the impact, with Gower offering hard work and safe play. Allgood/Lussick are the interchange prop rotation.

 

[84 Baby]

With Easter show on, be dumb not to play at ANZ. Get 30k there as well and it's another small indication to get major upgrade to Parra Stadium

I just think our bench lacks a little punch, the tigers has been awesome for them this season.

And when Mossop is fit he takes MOiMoi spot.Thats our best team for now.The Deffense would be rock solid-Imagine Pauli-MoiMoi-Terepo and Jnr Paulo in same team defense wise Our attack can score from anywhere so I say pick our defensive forwards for now till everything else gells 100%

 

[Hollywood Jesus]

The Tigers have been wanking on about how great their forward pack is recently, jacking off over contests against Souths and Manly.

All fair enough, I guess, which means we need to belt them. Enter HODOR.

Gower made a couple of crucial tackles on players who were heading through our line last weekend so he doesn't get the chop and S'All Good ripped in well enough to save his spot. The Penis Torpedo has missed a couple of times recently so, despite the fact that we like him and he has a great nickname, he gets the chop.

Having said that, I didn't think Pauli Squared made too much of a dent against the Roosters' line so maybe he should consider himself a bit lucky.

Aggressive defence can win us this game in the first half, so I wouldn't be surprised to see HODOR switched into the starting line up for either The CEO or Captain America.

So many nicknames.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

T-Squint sounds like a rapper from the early 90s.

His name is Mitch.
