Rd9: Parra v Knights GAME DAY thread 12/7/20

[I'm a loser baby...]

I'm not worried about the result. Just as long as we win the second half.

 

[Angry_eel]

What a half. Terrible calls and we're playing with so many errors.

 

[Tooooks]

Paulo (apart from that shit offload), RCG and Brown were excellent in that first half. Unless we fix our completion rate and last tackle options though, we’re cooked.

BTW, in the Roosters game the other night, the commentators repeatedly mentioned how many players they were missing and how great they were under such adversity. We are badly missing Moses.

 

[IFR33K]

Another bullshit call by the ref.

I told my kids there was a knock on there, they were adamant it came off the posts. I swear I seen a knock on

 

[Eelementary]

I'm fairly comfortable with that half - we made a lot of errors, but were the more dominant side, imo.

Cut the errors out, and we can win this.

It would also help if the prick in the middle could officiate both teams, instead of just the hometown team...

I am pretty sure there was a knock-on, too.

 

[Bandwagon]

Mahoney having a blinder, the KIng needs to get more involved, Drown also needs to step up and take control

 

[Wally21]

Our effort / defence has been good!! Ref hasn’t helped.

just need to finish our sets better. Also think we are going left to much, need to mix it up a bit.

Agreed. Matterson is such a great hole runner, should be hitting him instead of Lane. D Brown seems off today

 

[emjaycee]

I'm sure Waqa because he's in a parra Jersey will be cited and suspended for 2 weeks as it was on golden ponga...nothing wrong with the tackle either..

I hate how the commentators seem to determine whether something is citable or not. And once they talk it up after the refs have made a decision, it ends being looked at by the MRC when it was already resolved by the onfield officials.

 

[Soto]

I could understand if it was a send off offence but it wasn’t even a penalty

Exactly..but golden boy lies down. Then takes the goal kick and then goes off for HIA..WTF

I like Field, but we are badly missing Moses' play-making in the opposition 20.

 

[Tooooks]

Gee that was a great hit on Ponga. Surely he fails his HIA.

The commentators reckon Waqa will be in trouble with the judiciary for that.

I saw a perfectly-timed, legal hit - I'm not sure what they're smoking...

Drown has been a huge disappointment. Makes the break and fails to pass to his outside men.

then late in the half he was responsible for 2 six agains.

 

[Jake the snake]

Dylan Brown having a shocker. He needs to take control. Last play option has been crap. He absolutely butchered a try but not passing to Sivo or Jennings.

 

[hindy111]

Been terrible. Jennings hands been terrible.
Bombed a few tries. We look flat. Fire up and will win.

 

[hineyrulz]

Worst 40 mins of the year by far, we deserve to be well behind.


Rip a few arseholes BA.

To be fair, I think Brown made the right call - Pearce was on his way to cover Sivo, and Brown probably thought the safest option was to go back inside.

I think he would have been better off just dying with the ball, rather than trying to force a pass to Gutho.

 

[strider]

Mahoney having a blinder, the KIng needs to get more involved, Drown also needs to step up and take control

Agree. Without moses we look lost if gutho isnt involved alot

 

[Jake the snake]

Jai Field needs to pull his finger out as well. He can’t be a freakn passenger. Need Moses back ASAP.
