Round 7 Discussion

Cowboys getting cowboy penalties

phantom block when no one was touched to give them the lead
Try when O’Neill was miles offside
O’Neill getting a penalty even though he jumped into the raiders player

Every other team has improved, us? Well we just keep getting worse.

 

[Harry Sack]

Cowboys haven’t improved... they managed to get tigers on an off day leading into the dogs, which has given them confidence.

once they’re in Townsville they’re much harder to beat not to mention Ricky shitting the bed and dropping papa to the bench for Guler who made 4 errors in the first 20mins

they’re also in the middle of 6 out of 7 games in qld.... what I wouldn’t give to get a fucking draw like that

Well to be honest some braniac decided it was a good idea for us to play in 30 degrees and 80% humidity then the numpty in the middle went to town on us in the first half on the set restarts because the guys were to exhausted to get up.

This weekend is probably not a good measuring stick.

The O'Neil try should have at the very least been referred. It did look touch and go but it appeared he had his foot on the line where as Drinkwater appeared to kick it just behind it.

The penalty was on Ryan James for the hit on the kicker, not an escort by Wighton. I'm not sure how bad it was because Vossy was too busy making the game his own personal soap box.

The call on CHN looked rough but Corey lifting the leg may have given himself up. It was an unnatural reaction and it helped put O'Neil into a dangerous position.

The shot from James definitely wasn’t late, it was just hard... so effectively he was penalised for hitting him too hard.

the only reason CHN’s leg goes up is because O’Neill jumps early and back into him, which throws him off balance... if he’s penalised for putting him into a dangerous position then where was our penalty last week when Oates was flipped on to his head by Staines backing into him

O’Neill looked well offside and I think he knocks it on in the in goal anyway (ball drags along the ground when he’s trying to gather it and appears to bobble... then he puts the ball down)

 

[Big Pete]

The mid-air collisions are a lottery but in this instance I'm prepared to say they're different enough. They were both chasing in the same direction, O'Neil got there first and CHN extended his leg to put O'Neil in a dangerous position.

What was the Ponga incident Vossy was referring to?

 

[Big Pete]

Tohu Harris and David Fusitu'a have both been ruled out of tomorrow's clash.

None of the Warriors turned out for the Dolphins either.

There's a fair chance that Reece Walsh could receive an opportunity sooner rather than later.

I'd have to presume Rocco Berry and Tom Ale will come into the team, but if Murchie is just a smokescreen, we could see Walsh make his NRL debut.

Barrett was emotional after that win, and such an elated dressing room for the Doggies.
Their defence was most impressive and the numerous last ditch try savers were just fantastic.
And they did it off a 44% possession rate.
This vein of form continues, they definitely won't be getting the spoon.

As has been said previously, we've faced the cream of the crop to start our season. The Cows and Sharks haven't. I'll reserve judgement until we get some of the easier teams.

 

[Fernando]

Even the Bulldogs make us look like spineless hacks

Yeah, inagine us defending 4 sets straight on our line.

The Dragons have already won enough games to avoid the spoon, the Dogs and Cowboys seem to be improving, Manly will more win games than us if Turbo stays fit...second spoon is definitely on.

Has anyone even looked at our draw?

The most points we've scored is 16 which isn't enough to beat even the shittest teams and we only get to play the Dogs once this year.

We're averaging 32 points against. It's pretty fucking difficult to win games with that.

I actually think they have shown improvement. Their heads don't drop even when things go against them, and they do seem to have more structure and attacking plays.

a) if you think that you haven't looked at our results
b) the shittest teams don't defend anywhere near as well as the best teams (which are who we played) ... which is why they are the shittest teams

 

[Big Pete]

Looking at the Ryan James penalty again and unless he was offside or collected him high it was very harsh call. Seemed like James timed that hit to perfection.

I thought we beat the dogs 24-0.
