Round 23 Discussion

[vertigo]

If the Eels want to do anything in the finals they need to make a statement here, this is a real grinding game.

 

[vertigo]

Suck it Dogs, Hayne tap-on was great.

 

[Super Freak]

Has anyone else noticed Hayne get the shits with Norman a couple of times there for passing to a forward instead of him?

 

[vertigo]

Love how Norman left to be the 5/8 running the show at the Eels when really he's just a link-man for Hayne.

 

[vertigo]

Rad man goes in, hate how the long camera angle makes it look like they're tip-toeing on the line when really he had an acre to work with there.

 

[Big Pete]

That looked so promising from Hayne there, great lead up work from Sandow.

Game is living up to my expectations so far.

 

[vertigo]

That's a shame, Gower's been good tonight.

 

[Big Pete]

This is the Bulldogs chance to win the game here.

That hurts right there from Morgan. Eels did well to hold the Dogs out there but to hand the ball over on tackle two just really hurts.

 

[vertigo]

Bounced it, Eels live.

 

[Big Pete]

Deja vu, if only Hodkinson had have shown his true colours at Origin level.

Parra have another try in them, that try will prove costly.

Do parra really not have a centre in the squad that is better than Ryan Morgan. So average. Makes Reed look like Inglis

Old Man Tonga is injured.

Davis and Folau aren't the type of players you'd want to debut around this time.

Toutai would be interesting, don't know about his defence though.

 

[Big Pete]

Absolutely agree with Gus.

An 11 year old boy ball just decided the game there.

Definitely, that was a guaranteed try and it gets taken away because of a technicality that is absolutely ridiculous.

What a joke. The game really is a laughing stock at the moment

 

[vertigo]

Could cost Parra a top eight spot?

Thought they were specials to win tonight.

 

[Big Pete]

In fairness, they still had a chance to win that game Parra and Will Hopoate blew it. If he holds onto that ball, I'm sure they score later in that set because they were looking ominous.

Honestly not surprised by that result. I watched Parra last week and thought they were pretty lucky against an out of sorts opposition. The Dogs are in a rough patch but if there's any coach who's going to seize the moment, it's Des and while it was far from pretty it was just the result they were after.

Frustrating weekend tho. I wanted to see the Eels win that.

I think it has. Their for and against is too poor. They need to win by some big margins and hope other results go their way to get in the 8 now.
