Round 9: Newcastle Knights vs Parramatta Eels

[cowboyman]

Both teams defended well that first half...

Bit of:
a. Good defence mixed in with,
b. A whole lot of average, headless attack from both sides.

The middle defence has been good from both considering the talent each side has in the middle. The edge defence has hardly been tested due to very poor attack from both sides.

 

[Battler]

Impressed with Saulo's stint in the first half. Hits the line hard

Agreed, very impressed with Pasami's carries.

Yeah, Parra's last tackle options have been as bad as ours tbh.

Super athletic for a big unit

The rain will suit us

At least they can blame no moses

 

[cowboyman]

Moga has been very strong in his return. Blessing for him that Lee is out. Hopefully he can go injury free for the rest of the season.

Get him upto speed and put him on the wing. Tuala just doesn’t have the capabilities to return the ball strong like he could.

 

[cowboyman]

Not sure I agree with that. Rain takes away Ponga being so light footed across the field. It basically nullifies him.

 

[cowboyman]

That’s Brown’s afternoon done.

 

[packo]

**** me

 

[slotmachine]

Playing at home is good for us, other than the Moga pass called forward the ref has been kind. The crowd definitely playing their part

 

[knights22]

Geez that's a harsh call, ball looked backwards off Moga to me.

 

[cowboyman]

If only Moga didn’t have feet for hands at the try line.

 

[slotmachine]

Moga might have had two tries another day

 

[cowboyman]

Geez that's a harsh call, ball looked backwards off Moga to me.

Clear knock on mate.

 

[slotmachine]

Jesus ponga hits his head a lot.

 

[slotmachine]

Go away Pearce. Thumbs down

 

[JOJO82]

Far out Pearce is rubbish with his kicks

 

[knights22]

and surely that was accidental offside from whoever picked that ball up.

 

[slotmachine]

Sneaky Moga. Love it
