Round 5 V Eels

[umina panther]

Umina, JFH wants a word......

Fair JFH had a dig

 

[snickers007]

Our pack without RCG.......wow we will be soft

Yeah that 68m gained...

If Tamou pulled those numbers the knives would be out.

 

[Thirsty Panther]

Lets be honest here.
We played a team on their home ground, they were super desperate for a win, they had 56% of the possession and we still beat them.
Happy to go to work tomorrow and chat with the Eels supporters there

I thought Yeo was really good again, just didn’t get much ball. My man Leota the same.

Blake is moderately starting to worry me, not full worry just moderate. Needs to simplify his game a little. Case in point was First half we ran a really nice set play (maybe off a scrum) created an overlap & instead of drawing & passing to Crichton he came back off his right & tried to do it all himself, stepping back into traffic & dropping it.

Miss the only man trying to put hits on when we had nothing going right?

Luai or Egan HAS to start while Nathan is out. That attack was awful. Jimmy needs to be better

I have to say, one thing I trust with Hook is his judgment as to when a junior is ready to play first grade, whether they are ready to start and how many minutes they can handle.

He looks to have got it perfectly right with Cleary, Kikau, Edwards, CHN, JFH, Egan, Leota, etc.

I didn't think our attack was that bad today. Parra were committed and we had no field position in the second half. When we had good field position we were always threatening.

 

[Westernised Panther]

Gee whiz! The way some posters act on here, it's as if we're the ones 0-5, not Parra.

Defence wins matches and today's win, whilst ugly, was a testament to that.

Enjoy the win peeps! This is the best starts we've had in goodness knows how long.

Exactly. Despite the limited amount of tackles we had in the Parra 20m zone, we scored a try, was disallowed another, and bombed a certain one.

Agree but we know we will make the 8. Its the playing to football that can actually win a comp im after

To win a comp we need to finish top 4. To finish top 4 we need to win a lot of games, and to win a lot of games we also need to win ugly when the cards are against us on the day. Today was one of those days.

In your opinion, plenty are saying he was MOM.
I’d have given him at least a point, but I think you could be in trouble.

A point for what? Honestly asking

 

[Luke Bowden]

A point for what? Honestly asking

-1 try assist
-4/4 kicking
-Good in defence including a good shot on The biggest player on the park causing a turn over.
-Try saving effort to stop Jennings.
-Good kicking in general play.

I thought he played well considering he is a solo play maker.

Just my opinion though, I’m sure you have a different view.

Only missed 10 tackles so yes one of his better defensive efforts
