Rd9: Parra v Roosters GAME DAY THREAD @ BankWest Stadium 7/5/2021

I'm sorry to burst the bubble, but we can only win the premiership if the teams we play are injury riddled and have luck go our way.

We are way way way off.

 

[T-Boon]

Oh all the sob story about how couragious the roosters are. Without there imbalance of stars they always lose.

Mahoney is maybe our best player and hardest to replace. It threw our whole structure off.
Sivos was a try. That was a very silly decision. And RCG should of stood. There was a half second where ball was close and no vision. How can we be sure it didn't touch at that point? Very very Silly.

Absolutely.

Add those two tries in, and we put 40 on them.

We didn't play too well, but we still won quite easily, which I find very pleasing.

Also, we haven't beaten the Roosters in years.

We scored 5 tries, and had a legitimate 6th disallowed...

The Roosters were gutsy, gallant, and never gave up - but we outclassed them easily...

My issue is we don't seem to know when to spread ball. There where times in our own half we had them back peddling and needed to go wide but instead just kept hitting up the guts.

I'm not saying we will win the Premiership - but my dude, it's only round 9...

Overall a brilliant Friday night.
Panthers 48-0
Eels 31-18

We have the most brutal pack in the NRL. To bash these guys was so satisfying.

and we still have Marata / Nrown to enter the middle.....our 2 most aggressive players....

 

[muznik]

f**k you .. Uncle Nick, both channels’ commentators & the officials.. we still won.
Hats off to the Roosters’ players though they put up a valiant fight.
Sam Walker is living up to the hype. His defence for mine was impressive tonight.
Not a big fan of this quick restart ( 6 again) when we get 4 or 5 in quick succession on the 1st or 2nd tackle. Seems to remove a sin bin that would be the result of a proper penalty.

Definitely, mate.

Plenty room for improvement.

 

[strider]

lol

fair enough

he seemed to go after RCG at every tackle . Something doing there

He went after RCG but didnt manage to get the better of him .... so had a sook

Disagree politely fella. The blind f**ksticks did their beat to keep the rooters in the game. The boys played well. Except for SIVO, he’s as lazy as f**k

I know but we don't look like a great team in the traditional way. As the commentators on Fox said, We should have scored a lot more.

Point taken that the Sivo try was taken off us.

The Panthers were absolutely ruthless - that was Vicious.

Matterson was also great. Big game.

And the RCG try, too.

We aren't at the Roosters' level just yet - but this is a great start.

 

[Snoochies]

Crighton getting angry in the tackle only to stand up and see RCG staring at him and then he practically apologies to Mr Reagan

 

[Eelementary]

Matterson was also great. Big game.

He's a quality player.

It's so nice to have two backrowers like Cartwright, and Matterson, who have so much skill.

Matterson's kick was beautiful, and Cartwright terrorised the Roosters all night.

It's great to have a squad where players can do a job out of position.

I also thought Dylan Brown was pretty impressive at dummy half.

 

[TheParraboy]

Stand alone 2nd baby...

Stupid comment. Any team that wins a premiership has luck along the way.

Stupid also to even be thinking about us winning a premiership. Give yourself a bakers dozen.
