Rd9: Eels v Panthers GAME DAY THREAD at Bluebet Stadium 6/5/22

[hineyrulz]

No JT, the NRL is not better than that. Gerald Sutton is a horrible excuse for a ref who somehow continually gets the big games. The merkin had the whistle to his lips to blow a knock on and just let it go FFS!!

 

[Gary Gutful]

Should have been ruled a knock on and 10 in the bin for having a skunk on his head.

Is that what it is.

Here I was thinking it's an actual merkin, ( and no that's not word filtered ).

 

[yy_cheng]

Panfers defence is viscous though

Our fans should've done the Viking clap

 

[IFR33K]

We made 1697 m panthers 1624, however the panthers wingers / centres made 682 m ( happy to be corrected) of that compared to our 354……no wonder there middles have more energy for defence , better line speed…

We are definitely missing Blake / Sivo, they improve us in this area…

It’s no different to how we played when we first got fergo, sivo, waqa and Gutho chimed in. Big go forward from them meant our middles were able to pace themselves accordingly

Mate, if he carried a skunk on his head, it may actually be a bit of an improvement

 

[Obscene Assassin]

Envision this only being a penalty. Against anyone but the golden children it's a sin bin bordering on send off.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

The important thing is that just about everyone found an I told you so. Oh and we played pretty well too.

 

[84 Baby]

Good morning. Same vibe.

It hasn’t run out of batteries yet?

no reason why he shouldn’t be charged for that.

Great win after last week's efforts.

Penrith bashed us but we outlasted them. They visibly tired at the back end of each half.

Couldn't believe that knock on was missed!

Is Moses injured? He has not taken the line on the last two games.

 

[Soren Lorenson]

Luai pisses me off greatly. Another thing he was doing last night was pushing his own player from behind in tackles to get better go forward. It's bullshit.

 

[hineyrulz]

Luai has one of the most punchable faces in the NRL, him and Choady Walker should have a fight in a cage match till the death.

 

[King-Gutho94]

We have become the winning streak breakers in recent years.

Beat Melbourne on a 19 game winning streak. Penrith on a 11 game winning streak and a 21 game streak at home.

And since BA has taken over in 2014 we have been the 1st team to beat the defending premiers in the following season 4 times in 9 years.

Souths - 2015, Round 4
Cowboys - 2016, Round 2
Storm - 2021, Round 2
Penrith- 2022, Round 9

He is an arrogant prick.

But i suppose when you win a premiership you earn that arrogance.

I would be pulling his hair in tackles to get him off his game.

That’s f**ked. I hope he gets charged for that and for having girly hair.

 

[Stevie]

Great to beat Penrith especially after seeing that clip of Luai, f**k they are dirty AND smug.

Im loving Matto off the bench tbh and in the middle. He is tearing sides apart and that bench impact has been missed imo.

Bringing back Waqa into that wing position would be a HUGE boost in that game also I believe.

Adding Marata on the bench also give us a big boost.

 

[Rocket man]

Great to get Opacic back….

Opa had one bad read in defence.
I think he tried to tackle an apparition.

 

[84 Baby]

Luai Luai oh no
He gotta go
Aye aye aye aye aye

 

[lingard]

Rook to E5!

Can't do that; you'd be moving into check.
