However, a series of contentious calls went swung the momentum as the Panthers charged back into the contest and took the lead. <\/p>\n
First, five-eighth Blaize Talagi looked to have lost the ball before Liam Henry scored.<\/p>\n
Then, the Panthers seemed to benefit from a forward pass as they kept the ball alive before winger Thomas Jenkins crossed in the corner.<\/p>\n
Despite those moments, Ryles refused to point the finger at the officials, admitting that the club\u2019s own mistakes ultimately proved the difference.<\/p>\n
\u201cEvery week you come in, I can have a little dig, but I choose not to because I understand how hard the job is,\u201d Ryles said post-match.<\/p>\n
\u201cI thought BK\u2019s [Brian Kelly] try (could have been a penalty try). If he impeded him to get the ball and he got so close to the ball, then possibly a penalty try?<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t know. And then there was one where there was a forward pass and maybe a knock-on in the run of play. It was like gridiron.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s disappointing when we\u2019ve got so much technology and we\u2019re willing to use it at times and other times we just don\u2019t to help the referee out. <\/p>\n
\u201cObviously they\u2019ve got their touch judges there to help them as well. <\/p>\n
\u201cYou can always look back at little things like that, but we were our own worst enemy there for periods of that game and those little moments add to that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Eels skipper Mitchell Moses echoed his coach\u2019s assessment, insisting that the playing group only had themselves to blame for the loss.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t think it was the calls that hurt us,\u201d Moses added.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe kind of hurt ourselves in periods where we relieved some pressure. <\/p>\n
\u201cIn pressure situations, we came up with some errors and some wrong decisions so we\u2019ll have to learn from them and we\u2019ll get better.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut we\u2019re learning on the run at the moment. It obviously hurts. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re getting so close, but we put ourselves in a position to win the game. We just couldn\u2019t finish it off.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Parramatta Eels coach Jason Ryles has resisted blaming the officials over several controversial calls, insisting his side had…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":818864,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[568],"tags":[64,63,761,762,158,85],"class_list":["post-818863","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nrl","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-national-rugby-league","tag-nationalrugbyleague","tag-nrl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/818863","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=818863"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/818863\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/818864"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=818863"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=818863"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=818863"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
