2/2

Gee hasn't Inu just been a golden buy for the Dogs? It s**ts me but it's really coincided with their big streak.

Well it helps us.

So we have to love them for one week.

Re: Round 24

Bulldogs were rewarded with one of the most obvious obstruction helped tries that will be talked about in the Sydney papers all week.

I hate the fact that Inu and Perrett are playing for the Bulldogs. They had no depth left in the centres and wingers due to the injuries and they would be no where near as strong without those signings. I reckon after round 10 you shouldn't be allowed to change teams. Oh well, they are allowed too and it is working for them.

Re: Round 24

And they will talk Jack Schitt about the Broncos being jipped, two weeks in a row.

They will weep & wail about the poor Tigers.

Re: Round 24

I went for the upset in both games and was so close.

Re: Round 24

It really annoys me too Twiztid.

Just like how the Knights were able to bring Gagai in and fix their season up.

Isn't fair that another coach spends all off-season assisting these players, only for them to leave once an opportunity opens up on a bargain bin contract that would otherwise be questioned had they signed before that season.

It's smart play by them...but it's something I hate.

Like torso tries. F**k torso tries. Whoever thought torso tries were a good idea should be shot.

+1 to **** torso tries, absolute joke. It just shits me because obvious knockons are considered groundings if you land on it with your belly...

 

[Son Edo]

I wanted to bring up the mid season signings too but I couldn't. Because if we complained about it, someone else would counter by saying how the Broncos have a favorable draw by playing on fridays.

 

[Big Pete]

They could.

Then again, I don't believe night football is all that helpful especially for us.

Sunday football seems to suit us more yet we never get a fair shake of it despite it being our most requested time slot.

Only people who will bring it up are bitter NSW supporting Qld residents or Manly supporters.

I'm really glad Tigers lost. Helps our top 8 chances, and delaying an inevitable Bulldogs loss until the finals could be good too.

It would be great, if the Dogs made the GF only to lose.

Anyone else think that Aaron Woods' try, wasn't actually a try?

Commentary team seemed sure of him grounding it, but although it looked like that, I am certain someone had a hand/arm under the ball.
