Other Games [Round 1, 2022]

[Snake]

It’s actually better for the Eels to be told ‘it’s their year’ because they buckle under pressure...that’s always been their thing. We don’t want them ‘backs to wall’ because that’s when they rally and cause upsets like last year again Melbourne.

 

[Shoe1]

That bunker decision on Ray Stone was corruption on display. The titans player wasn’t even looking at Stone. He was doing his best to clear the ruck and Stone places the ball on old mates leg, and fumbles it.

He was even dropping it before he placed it in the leg.

The Moses in the ruck one was terrible too. He was offside in the ruck, not square and caused the fumble.

Poor crowd in Townsville with their new you beaut stadium they wanted and got

 

[Hotspur2014]

Of all the teams this week we showed the least enthusiasm.
Why are we consistently poor starters ? That is 9 years in a row we have lost our Round 1 game - that is absolutely ridiculous !
Penrith were fantastic, but our enthusiasm & attitude was very poor - and we never had a plan B.
This is the difference between a contender and a also ran.
Des you have some work to do this week to get the boys ready in their heads for the Roosters game. Both teams with first round loosers and I wonder which one will turn up with the goods ?? I hope it is us.

Amazing. Watching the GC v Parra game and you can still aim a Dig at DCE. Why?

When the $1mil+ man stops getting out played and out thought by rookies and average half-backs then I'll stop digging.

 

[Kalvin]

Ok so it's embarrassing to be below the bulldogs on the table!

Mate you not watching the NRL then? DCE was excellent last year and one of our better players the other night.

I get some on here have their whipping boys and that will never change but I'd love to see our side without DCE right now. I wonder which superstar you are going with? Nathan Cleary? Mitch Moses? Who's your go to kid that will get the job done?

We've seen it many times before - DC cant do jack when the forwards aren't going forward. He just switches into headless chook mode & giggles & does stupid things. When we have good go forward he's one of the best halves in the comp.

Well even the dogs put in an effort and won.

We need a better showing on Friday night.

 

[wedgetail eagle]

The Fox commentator said it best,
“The Bulldogs steal the win…”

 

[Scorpio]

That suggests we lost against the Panthers because of lack of effort...

I'm sure we'll have a better showing on Friday.

Sheeeit! I so wanted the Hammer try to stay. What a let down for the home crowd. They deserved a win after sitting thru that monsoonal downpour.

Someone who won't continue to kick meaningless no pressure 5th tackle bombs all game down Dylan Edwards throat and might actually think to kick into the corners and pressure their backs like they did to us.

We hardly had an attacking kick all match from decent positions. Whats the bloke supposed to do? Use magic?

I appreciate the Clay Davis reference!

Eels vs Titans = no defence
Dogs vs Cowboys = no attack

But Twenty Bird is an attacking genius is he not?

 

[Dunder Mifflin]

I appreciate the Clay Davis reference!

As did i!
