POST GAME [Round 20, 2021] Broncos vs Cowboys

[Sproj]

Croft and Dearden had a fierce battle to see who is a shitter player. I think they fought hard to a draw, I can't decide.

This confirms it for me. I thought Croft was overall pretty good with some dumb things thrown in. Now I see this opinion, I’m more confident he was really good.

He missed that tackle on Deepdown but he did a lot of good things. He was outshone by Gamble because Gamble was next level.

Dearden has shown nothing, no creativity at all.

They made the right call there, he's basically just feeding it to Drinkwater and the forwards without ever challenging the line or asking any questions of the defensive line

I genuinely don’t know what position he fits on the field. Fullback? Even then, he’s a reserve grader at best at present, I suspect he might even struggle to hold a position there.

You've tried this joke before, fell flat the first time too.

Crofts try was more a footballers try but his defence was abysmal in letting in Dearden.

Yes if it was a joke, maybe.

So that means you allow another opinion to sway yours? Shows a weak mind and lack of confidence.

Or a shit joke...

Croft was better than Dearden for sure, my post was more just having a crack at how shit they both are in general.

Dearden's 30m kick on the fourth tackle straight down oates throat had me in fits of laughter.

I reckon Croft on points....... (err....Croft was the better player)

Which really just shows how shit Deardon is. We were right to let him go.

 

[Kimlo]

Never rated Deardon, thank **** the Cows decided to waste 330k a year for the next 3 on him. Less money to bid on one our good players.

The best part was Dearden taking a loose ball and went for a run only for Herbie to strip it 1 on 1

Kevvie says they "need to get the big fella a game sometime." I'm worried he feels the press is putting him under pressure to reinstate Coates, and Oates didn't exactly own his wing tonight.

Confirmed no ISC this week. Last night when I said no you won’t see him I knew one game was cancelled already and expected more.

 

[Marty Deutschmann]

We absolutely cannot under play how good Gamble was last night.

At the game - on and off the ball Tyson made a huge difference to that team last night. I daresay (and hope I'm right) that Staggs would be happy to forfeit the 6 jersey to Tyson next year to get good ball and more space.

Right now, he's my first picked player after Haas

Croft was better this game. Played pretty well but **** he has to have the worst kicking game in the NRL - Tim Dorden included. The amount of times he fails to get kicks past the defensive line is disgusting. His shitty deflected midfield kick put us under pressure early on and gifted Cows good field position and then there was that monstrosity that popped 3m in the air to land softly in Dearden’s chest to run up field with it (until Herbie stole it back).

Yeah he isn’t the answer by any means and I won’t be sad to see him go but credit where it is due, he was decent last night, much better than Timid Drysabone.

all part of the plan

This classic meme suits Dearden perfectly.

Yea he played his role well and didn’t look quite as lost in defence though he still had his moments. would be a nightmare to defend outside of. Must have been cathartic for the poor guy to finally get a try.

Too masculine
