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

[Happy MEel]

Interesting just now on the Sunday Footy Show, with Fittler calling out Dyl. Said he’s had a very poor year with only 1 try and 1 assist and dropping more balls than any other half does, and that his head just isn’t in the game.

said the next 3 weeks makes or breaks our season in terms of what Dylan does and how he responds when he comes back as if he can’t provide a second point of attack for Moses we can win the comp.

Spot on. Drown has been poor and I just don’t think he’s suited to the halves. I think centre or possibly even fullback would be a better fit.

Fittler turned his back on his own son, that’s all you need to know about that dribbler.

Matto at 5/8. If he kills it and Stone or Greig hits form Browns in NSW cup

I'd go along with Matto at 5/8. Cartright could go there, but I think he might overplay his hand. Would prefer Matto over Will Smith. Of course, then Marata (when he comes back) would need to replace Matto in the forwards - which means ……. oh no ……. Waqa Blake back to centre.

Need more info on this!

Didn't Freedy play Anasta at fullback?

 

[Tooooks]

Typical media buffoon. Dyl will come back, have one good game and he will want to boof him. Additionally Dyl scoring the last try and putting his beloved Sombrero Cheats to bed hurt bad. Fancy this barefoot, wheatgrass drinking idiot being our SOO Coach. Little wonder we lost to the worst QLD team ever last year. He has by far the better squad this year. Let's see if he can fu*k it up again. The way he used Junior last season was a disgrace and showed he's still the same no talent Roosters Coach he was years ago. No surprise club's aren't beating a path to his door. Fool. Stfu.
Too much? Lol.

Fittler seems like a decent bloke but he’s not very intelligent and is obviously biased. Wow, Sam Walker would’ve carved up an 11 man team? Brilliant insight.

found it interesting he said we need Dylan to get better as we another point of attack to have any chance this year as Moses can’t do it all on own....

Ah has he not seen Gutho / Reed / Paulo and now Cartwright play this year....they all offer us different points of attack....

even Cooper Cronk has said we are hard to shut down as Moses doesn’t have to do it all as we have several attacking options ....

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Both players got themselves into poor positions and were unlucky.....

But the charges are definitely fair...

Dylan probably deserved to be binned.

But Tedesco fell into the position, so don’t think Marata deserves binning.

also there was a swinging arm to an eels player head during the game, think we got a penalty. Not sure of the eels player (could have been the Taukeiaho on hipgrave), but he didn’t react, however as he was not injured (very possible he could have) nothing else has been said about it. But it was as bad as the Marata tackle if not worse as the eels player was not falling into the tackle.

That was Brian Smith

 

[Noise]

It’s the truth. DBrown has been shit. He’s a hack. He excels at tiktok but not at footy. In attack he brings nothing to Parra. I’d be giving BArthur son a shot at the next weekend

The Parramatta Eels has today accepted the early guilty pleas regarding Dylan Brown and Marata Niukore's charges from Friday night.

Dylan Brown has been in contact with Sydney Roosters player Drew Hutchinson yesterday.

“No player likes to see anyone injured.

"Yesterday I contacted Drew to check up on him and apologise.

"I also let him know that it was an accident and never my intention for him to get hurt,” said Brown.

Parramatta Eels General Manager of Football Mark O’Neill said, “As a Club we never want to see serious injuries occur and we would like to pass on our best wishes to Drew for a swift recovery."

Brown will miss three matches for his dangerous contact charge, while Niukore will miss two weeks for a careless high tackle.

Double post because the website is lagging like shit..

 

[Soren Lorenson]

Hahaha. I actually live a few doors up from Peter Wynn!

Does Stan Jurd stand outside his front door all day?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

First sentence is a question.

First sentence is a question?

 

[Twizzle]

Not really much point in contesting them, 3 weeks for Dylbags and 2 for Niokore is fair.

I reckon Dylbags got an extra week for the broken rib.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Also said we should have been down to 11 players and Sam Walker would have carved us to pieces and we’d have lost.

Coulda woulda shoulda. Classic Roosters. They'll go out in straight sets again this year.

 

[Pazza]

Sounds like Waqa comes in but who plays 5/8???
