[Round 19, 2022] Broncos vs Eels

[jd87]

we look solid in defense around the ruck which is good. what worries me is that edge defense. twice we were absolutely embarrassed and they were one man down for one try. eels will be going there rest of the night no doubt.

If we can fix that up and arey plays good wet weather football we should get the win even with parra throwing everything at us.

Oh and turpin still sucks so bad although i will admit his service got a bit better as the game went on. but **** me it looks like he plays in slow motion with the speed of his service. you can tell it puts the other players off a bit with the timing of there runs

 

[ZTop]

I hate that we let that try in before half time. Gives them some hope

 

[BroncsFan]

Need another converted try at least... eels will be coming now so need to be prepared to scramble our fucking asses off in this second half

 

[ZTop]

Eels have got away with murder in the PTB, particularly on their line, they should have been binned earlier.

Yeah they hold on for sooooo long

 

[Mustafur]

Paix hasn't even come on yet, I feel confident even if eels play better.

 

[Wolfie]

Some issues at the Eels with their playing group. Hope we flog these now big time for the shit they have done to us in recent years.

 

[Foordy]

hopefully Paix plays this whole second half... he'll trouble Parra so much more than Turpin

 

[Markw]

Broncos by 20

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Play Turpin for the first 10-15 minutes of the 2nd half then bring Paix on to run riot I reckon

 

[Brocko]

Conceding that garbage on HT takes a lot of gloss off the good in that half.

Parra's big pack will be gassed late, especially if we can keep completing and turning them around. Paix could do some damage.

Come on boys

 

[BroncsFan]

Hopefully all that defence will take its toll on them in the final 15.

Only if we can complete our sets and keep in front of the possession count... if we give them 60% possession in the second half that first half will likely mean nothing

 

[Fernando]

Also Ezra Mam.....Good lord, he is gonna be some player. that pass to Capewell for the try was a beauty.

The one to Oates wold have been a beauty too but Oates was about 20 metres behind the centre

 

[Foordy]

Yeah they hold on for sooooo long

theres been a couple of unpunished flops as well from the Eels

 

[BroncsFan]

Play Turpin for the first 10-15 minutes of the 2nd half then bring Paix on to run riot I reckon

I would've been tempted to get Paix out there in the first half when we were on top possession wise... also give Turps a break in case we need his defence later in the game

 

[nopatience101]

Yeah they hold on for sooooo long

It has honestly been ridiculous, shows how much of a farce the 6 again rule is.

 

[BroncosFever]

They scored one try where they got gifted the ball off a Turpin forward pass, another where Pereira thought it would be a cool idea to catch it and then take it out

Other than that, not even in the game

 

[BroncsFan]

The one to Oates wold have been a beauty too but Oates was about 20 metres behind the centre

It also ended up around Oates' ankles... if it was chest height I think Oates takes it cleanly, but because it was down around his ankles he was 50/50 on whether he can catch it or needed to toe it forward on the full.

Pass just didn't have enough juice on it

 

[Strop]

We’ve only used 2 interchanges, yes?
