Round 7: Parramatta Eels vs Gold Coast Titans

[gotitans101]

Can't blame the refs for this game. Almost any other team in the NRL would have put a score on the Eels without Hayne. Nope, not us.

Totally gutted but hey, it's becoming a regular trend, and the forum optimists continue to refuse we have problems.

i wonder if carty is still tempted to put tomane in, he is top tryscorer for the jets

[Coaster]

That makes me sick

You certainly weren't watching him play then. His cut out pass gave Tonga and Michaels the space to go over for our first try. He put in grubber kicks, bombs, long kicks, cross-field kicks, short passes, cut out passes and only missed one tackle. His kicking game made more meters than Robson's & Mortimer's put together. As a halfback he had a good game, his defense held up and his attack had more variety than the x-mas island detention center.

He did a couple of good things I will give you that, but I saw a lot of his long kicks going straight to the fullback, he threw some shocking passes and to me still looked scared to take the line on, It's also no real achievment beating the Parra halves in anything, they are bad. I will have to watch a replay of the game though because I didn't see much variety, we took the ball wide a few times and Parra handled it with ease.

Completion rate: 24/40 (60%)

While the penalty against Bodene Thompson for moving off the mark was a joke and a momentum changer, the Titans lost this game due to their poor completion rate. Simple errors at crucial times.

Agreed. He showed signs of improvement but at the same time showed signs that he is still in a rut. He looked the best he has this season though I reckon.

DISGUSTED. While the refs gave us a lopsided game and the call from the commentary was hopelessly biased, we still should've won that by 20 or more. While Prince had a mostly good game his long kicking was atrocious as he put it down their throats over and over again. Bird ruined our first 20 minutes with ill-discipline and Zillman butchered a probable try. Other than that Zillman was great. What was with Capewell slipping over all the time, that was inexperience and unprofessional for him to be in the wrong boots.

I thought the pass for Meads try was fine and we had two forward passes pulled up either side of a Parra forward pass that led to a Horo break and Parra try. Tonga and Bodene were magnificent, the bak three okay. The second row made too many mistakes and the props were good apart from a mistake by White. Friend was okay too. Too many mistakes and penalties for mine, but we gotthe raw end of the refs and the commentary was almost unbearable.

[Rage]

Penalty against Thomson was a joke!
Dunno if its our discipline or the refs but the amount of penalties against us really frustrates me every game I watch

[GoldCoastTitans100]

The game was very disappointing the completion rate was a joke.

Prince through some bad passes, his kicks found the backs on the full and he didn't create that many opportunity's. Yes he done some alright things but for a HB the things he done were expected.

But i seriously hope im wrong about Prince and he starts proving me wrong.

[TITAN PETE]

We were just beaten by the Wooden Spoon Fav's

[Coaster]

I agree but fmd where is the discipline from this team???

They have none, I'm sick of it.
They should finically punish stupidity, there playing like a bunch of complete idiots and I can't see it changing this year.

The whole management staff need a good look at themselves, I have no idea what was trained for 5 months, but it certainly wasn't discipline. My last post tonight, I'm way too emotional ATM.

Losing that game was unforgivable

[matti]

whats wth the under 20's , they should just give up now

[Rage]

Any idea what the penalty count was?

Any idea what the penalty count was?

9-4 to the Eels.

[CairnsTitan]

I'm gonna go with what someone from here has said, we have had the flair coached out of us, imo we are a team that should play like the tigers but instead are playing like st george which doesn't suit a lot of our players.
