Score could be 20-10 if we could kick goals, good half either way. Just 2 unlucky tries.

 

[Kaz]

Tbf that would've been hard for the officials to see that clearly

Well why the **** do we have touch judges.

 

[Fozz]

Well why the **** do we have touch judges.

A question that has been asked since they started painting their eyes on.

 

[Dash]

Well why the **** do we have touch judges.

I ask this every match. The only thing they do is mark the kicks for touch.

 

[gordjw]

What a bloody roller coaster half of footy!

 

[GCBRONCO]

Well why the **** do we have touch judges.

The same reason why we have scrums and two refs.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Very happy with Pearson. He does not look out of place at all

 

[Rally Towel]

I think we'll come away with the win but I would not be surprised if we lost on goal kicking.

 

[GCBRONCO]

Lots of mistakes in this game(simple ones too), Bennett's message at halftime will be ball control, the side that handles that aspect of their game in the second half wins IMO.

 

[Rally Towel]

Lovely seeing that on replay. Milf shrugged off French with ease.

Said it before and I'll say it again, we need to keep running at him. He'll fold.

 

[Super Freak]

Milf Milf Milf!

 

[jarro65]

Oates needs new boots

 

[winslow_wong]

Kick a goal ffs

 

[jarro65]

Big test for our D this second half .... Parra won't die wondering

 

[Morkel]

We can win this on skill, easily. But to do that we need to do two things. The obvious one is hold the fucking ball. The other is stop getting turtled. They're murdering our go-forward by turning us on our backs, which the refs see as legitimate excuse to lie all over us. Knees and elbows.

 

[Sproj]

Whichever team gets it together the second half will run away with this.

 

[Morkel]

Milf was right to target Ma'u too, back-rower at centre. Have to fatigue him and those around him.

We seem to be predominantly tackling with only two defenders. It leaves the other defenders to get back on-side and ready for the next set, but that gets countered by the Eels runner winning the ruck and getting quick PTB's. The other Danger is that there are a bunch of Eels that excel at hitting the defence and popping an offload immediately. Only having two defenders makes that easier.
