Week 2 Finals: Parra v Raiders GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank 16/9/22

[Wally21]

Brad Arthur critics are left red faced as the Parramatta Eels make the Preliminary Finals in the National Rugby League.

Really???

 

[King-Gutho94]

We'll see what we've learned from playing the Cows in Darwin. Might have been a blessing disguise now.

Well Dylan Brown won't be in the centres surely.

 

[King-Gutho94]

If opacic is out I suppose Blake back to centres and Simmonson to wing is the best option.

“Whoever has got the agenda, you’re not going to break us”. On ya BA.

It was a dog act leaking that.

 

[Angry_eel]

Just made it home. What a game!

Went to the Wolfpack after the game for the first time in 15 years. Amazing feeling!

Brave Ricky.

Would have made top 4 if not for Injuries.

Just very brave Ricky very brave.

Btw, for a team behind by 30, attacking the oppositions halfback in a dog act is as low as it gets.

 

[JokerEel]

Does anyone know the rules? Potential Penalty try?? he touched the ball and then was tackled...

In play, I thought it was going to be a penalty try. But the offside saved us.

Well as soon as Wighton touches the ball he is free to be tackled. He wasnt tackled before touching the ball.

I agree mate. I didn't see the touch as it happened. But it didn't matter anyway.

Exactly, as soon as he touchesd the ball with his hand he had possession. It doesn't matter that couldn't control the ball. Until the ball hits the ground or another player he is in possession.

 

[Sensei Cobra]

He's been excellent. I'd like to give Opacic a wrap. He's played the unsung hero in all of this. I can't recall him ever having a shit game of note.

I agree… honest Tom has been Great - a real Unsung hero and we will miss him next week

Hang on...was at the game and just got home. Noticed that Marata finished at centre. I did see Opacic get treatment. So what's happened to terrific Tom?

Shit me listening to Voss say it's a penalty try before the offside. He has been calling games for how long and doesn't know the rules..

Ever since he realised he was of Serbian origin and announced it on Instagram his form improved and as far as I'm concerned he is the best Serb that has ever played for us.

Massive penis too I've heard.

 

[King-Gutho94]

Found a positive for BA.

BA's coached teams in finals F/A in finals is +13.

At a win% of 30%.

 

[the phantom menace]

Interesting to see which way we go.

Can either bring Simonsson in on the wing and move Blake back to centre, or stick Niukore in the centres and bring Brown in.

I think maybe wind Brown up for the first 20 minutes and let him loose might be the way to go.

Option 2 please. If Oppa is going to be out, some decent defence in his part of the field is needed.
