Elimination Final - Cowboys vs Broncos - LIVE Discussion

[ningnangnong]

**** this shit.

I've been held hostage by this team for too long.

**** watching the second half, for once I'm going to tune out.

 

[subsbligh]

I said in the lead up thread that this was going to be a massive mental challenge more than anything. We left nothing on the field for the storm. Our season was over there. We knew that. Poor old Griffin just set up the tackle pads and the water bottles for just any other week at training, and it shows tonight.

He needed to fire them up. To challenge them individually, to find a way to get them to discuss to the occasion and turn up. The Broncos have not turned up tonight.

My only hope is Bennett will make sure that we turn up.

And don't kick the ball out on the full. I swear to god, that we have done this more than any others this season. And always at the worst times.. Manly crunch game... Off the fucking first kick offf . cowboys, straight after the first try is scored.

Would love to see our boys come fired up this half and look like they want to rip some heads off.

**** thinking about the win, just look to hurt in defence and some flair with the ball. So sick of us being bullied when we are defending.

 

[Rabbir]

Should have bought Soward for cheap.

Its not like we have even been unlucky............we have just basically been shit at doing everything. How can an NRL team be so disorganised and poor at this time of the year and be in the finals?

that comes down to the coach and players attitude. some of these players found henjak too tough and maticulous and would rather a father figure to baby them

 

[_wwong]

we came back in 2006 though. but that was a team full of superstars

 

[Bull Shark]

Well, Super Coach Bennett has his work cut out doesn't he. Though it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know where Griffin has gone wrong does it.

yeah attack and defence are only glaring concerns ...

 

[rnabokov]

Maybe we are missing Reed and Hoffman at FB more than we realize. There is no purpose and direction.

 

[Big Pete]

Kennedy bubba you've got to hold onto those.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Fucking Kennedy, unbelievable. I never want to see his stupid face again

 

[Foordy]

McCullough back to his career best.

Super media mega star Hunt showing that he is just an ordinary halfback who has a good game every once in a while.

Can see how frustrated Hodges is out there. Trying to milk that penalty on our line was so obvious, but he knew what was coming if he didn't try it.

On to your point about Hunt, half backs including the greats like Langer, Johns and Sterling, are rarely able to perform behind a pack that is being dominated and a side that has no ball.

 

[K-Style]

Watched the Panthers. Great game. Keep buying fuklbacks but we don't have a Moylan or anything near. I came in late and saw Hodges drop the ball trying to milk a penalty. Standard rubbish from the co-captain.
Kahu is rubbish. He was rubbish for Wynnym last weekend too. Did not chase the high ball in attack or defense costing Wynnym the game.

Hunt has this rubble to work with. He is still solid but he's got nothing to work with. Barba is back to his worst. Perhaps McCullough is too slow. Didn't see enough of his delivery. The Cows will enjoy Granville next year.

 

[Financeguy]

I cringe when Kennedy gets the ball now, a muppet of the highest quality.

Criminal Hannant gets offered 100k with that dud on our books

 

[Big Pete]

Morgan is doing his best Hodges impression.

 

[_wwong]

really need to fire up here. now or never

 

[Dexter]

We have nothing except get the ball and run hard at the defence. Hook should be embarrassed with his coaching .

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Kennedy has done his calf, well **** me

 

[Bull Shark]

what the fucking **** was that from the dropout ???! standing 65m back and waiting for the ball to bounce !? FFS can these assholes at least pretend to give a shit
