Round 5 vs Penrith Match Thread

[Gronk]

Too true. No way would 3P have signed Foran and therefore no kick on the 4th tackle which led directly to the loss.

3P wanted Quade Cooper. :crazy:

 

[Bigfella]

Our 9 and 1 are relatively cheap though and our halves are on much, much more

No doubt but that doesn't change anything I said surely?

Could u imagine had they still been in power. They would of replaced sticky with Matt Elliot, then prolly Elliot with Royce Simmons. Lmffao!!!

Just watched the last 15 mins again on fox.

Gees how we threw those 2 points away.

- field goal opportunity with 9 to go
- I'm certain Tepai scores in the corner if he powers through that tackle instead of trying to offload to Gutho and dropping it
- foran's last kick, no words, wrong time, wrong kick, terrible outcome
- marker defence in the last 3 mins disappeared
- semi not attacking that ball, or staying on his wing, if he wasn't going after the ball he needed to stay on his man as Jennings had the catcher covered

Yep

 

[hybrideel]

Jennings couldn't have had the catcher covered, he was too busy clapping and fist pumping

Gutho is the scapegoat on the Eels FB page

Just go on Bookface and search for Parra Eels.

Its a closed group so you have to ask or be asked to join and they dont put up with too much shit or you get booted.

It seems that if BA wants 80 minutes of 100% intensity coming from our forward pack in every game of the season then he'll need to rotate and tinker with his roster a bit here and there most weeks so that we have a few fresh players driven by the 80 minute fires of hell leading out front. Yesterday, there were many fazes during the game where our forward pack looked a bit tired and weak and our 80 minutes of intensity was not at 100%.

Letting players chancing their arms over and over again leading to many turn overs contributed greatly to the weariness our pack experienced against the Panthers. Our tactics caused us to run out of fuel and it is here where I feel we lost the game.

Maybe, we just don't chance our arms too much so early in the season and with so much more fuel in the tank we just continue grinding the opposition down as we've been doing so far this season. If we had minimised turning over the ball so many times in the first half we would have easily beaten the Panthers. Instead, we let them beat us. Penrith did not win this game - we threw it away.

Anyway, at least we are not the Eels 2011-2014 version of annihilation, capitulation and blow outs. We have much to look forward to this season. We are top 8 with a serious shot at the title.

And the penalties. I dont get why the players want to leapfrog the tackled player. They aLmost always get penalised

What went against us the last 7 mins
Tepai goes himself - Scores we win
Refs pick up on the the forward pass on penrith 40mtr line - We get scrum 6 mins to go we win
The bunker over call - We win
Foran kicks right to Moylan on 4th. A good kick - we win
The bomb - Semi contest it we may of won.

So much went against Parra that last 7 mins. Two the reffs fault and 3 of our own.

League Unlimited has an official FB page as well, no rest for the wicked.

Interestingly some of the Eels fans are trying to organize an Eels March similar to that of the Wanderers.
