How many tackles have we had in the Eels 20? Other than the set we scored from I don't really remember many others because we kept taking the 2 points when 25m out.

I know goals are the difference right now but that still feels costly to me at the moment.

The refs seem to be letting Parramatta get away with heaps of second efforts in the tackle (especially Gower)

You know, I'm getting really tired of watching Broncos games, and the video ref randomly chiming in to overturn a call and put us under pressure..never see it with any other team. Just a random "**** you" and then silence for the rest of the game.

There was only one chaser for the kick as the primary chaser went down earlier. All Maranta has to do is beat one chaser to get it out. Lots of players in lots of teams do that, or at least try to.

Copy that. I really only the saw the end of it.

Reed is playing much better tonight... IMO, the only position he has in the team is wing.

Milford seems to only be taking hitups, we need him to be getting good quality ball to Copley... Every time Copley gets the ball the defence is on him by the time he touches it. Makes life a lot harder for him.

And if they **** up & the opposition scores a try, we would be calling for their blood or for them to be burnt at the stake.

I think Maranta did the right thing.

For me it's not about Maranta himself, it's about that play. Any player back there in that position should be confident to run it out.

I think it's about awareness. The first one Maranta was on the run and if he ***** up he doesn't know who is behind, so that's fair enough.

But the 2nd one he had time to wait for the ball to go dead, so if he knows he has time to wait he has to know there's not many chasers coming.

Copley really needs to improve on the defensive end. It is really sub par atm.
