Wests Tigers v Parramatta

[joel caine number 1 fan]

Wests were simply diabolical.

I don't think you can read too much into it, it was the first game of the year. Mind you the tigers will be desperate to get Benji back.

true we should be right when we get Wilson/Elford/Benji and Gibbs back and i better never see Renoylds in the team or Fitz at fullback again :x

 

[Harold Bishop]

Parra have an excuse- they have pretty much a new team on the field.
In saying that the tigers were without their main playmaker - Marshall, and Hodgson, their best player was out for half of the game, i also rate Elford.
Fitzhenry is no 5/8th or fullback.
Most teams would have put 50 on the tigers today

 

[Greenblooded]

Fitz will be having nightmares about those bombs #-o

I think Parra will go well this year, 6-8. Not so optimistic for the Tigers.....

 

[Weasels Ripped My Flesh]

We dominated the first half, but that second half we were terrible after we lost Hodgson - that left us with one half, as Fitzy moved to fullback - and no fullback :?

 

[edabomb]

I only saw the second so there you have it. Yous went quite well in 04 and were quite entertaining. Hopefully you can pick it up when a few more players get back.

eeerm Jobson is a prop...

Parra are going to get carved up the Tahu/Burt side of the field this year. Tahu is an abysmal defensive centre.

 

[Weasels Ripped My Flesh]

So many handling errors :?

 

[hybrid_tiger]

Tigers were pretty disgraceful.

That's what you get when you play locks at hooker, centres at five-eighth and halves off the bench as hookers.

And also having not a single prop on the bench.

Laffranchi, Skandalis, Fulton and Whatuira went alright. The rest were pretty much rubbish. Alot of work to do.

 

[Weasels Ripped My Flesh]

Don't forget O'Neil - he played great.

 

[Utey]

I thought it was a very good game. Pretty good atmosphere in the stadium. Cant wait for round 2.

Tim Smith ;-)

 

[Weasels Ripped My Flesh]

Didn't he drop that ball twice? He didn't look like anything THAT special, although those two tries he set up were pretty cool.

 

[Balmain_Boy]

I thought it was a very good game.

Were you watching a different game to me? That was without doubt the worst game of football i've ever seen. Neither team could hold on to the ball. Neither had anything special in attack.

Parra pack looks good though.

 

[PARRA_FAN]

Yeah it was scrappy towards the end, Parra had plenty of opportunities to finish off the game, they finally did it though when Peek scored. Wasnt that bad of a game, Im sick of the video refs taking so long to make a friggin decision, and then they get it wrong. Pathetic. Back to the same old story again. :roll:

the richards try was awesome though and we looked too attack during the first 20

 

[TheParraboy]

Yeah the game was a pretty scrappy affair, frustrating at time for both sides I bet...

it was a good game in the sense that the scores were close till 5-10 mins left, but that was about it.

Both sides can improve heaps and hope they do

 

[Weasels Ripped My Flesh]

So very true

 

[Moffo]

Parra have a lot to improve on if they want to tie the shoelaces of the top 4 team

At least they have players that can improve

Wests have some good juniors. Fulton and Harrison are players of the future
