Round 21 v Broncos: Game Day Thread

[Poupou Escobar]

Rattled!!! Your softcock forwards shat themselves after that bwahahaha.

BWAHAHAHAHA THEY DIDN'T WANT TO RUN THE BALL!!!

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Too many consonants at end/beginning of words in last line. You could get away with 'shit outa their guest'

Still a ball tearer though. Great work @I'm a loser baby...

There once was a man known as Gary
Who thought he played golf like Craig Parry
He liked his posh beers
But was nice to his peers
Unlike that merkin called Barry

OK. See if you can finish this one off.


There was a young nurse from Heever,
Who could pick up a pen with her......

What is a cleaver, Barry.

There was a young nurse from Heever
Who could pick up a pen with her beaver
A neat trick I'da thought
And she was a good sort
But by God she went on like a diva

rattled my whole side? Lol. Andy Mac going off was how you won.

Oh did we win? You had me convinced we were no hope

Well he is out for the season now.

Without Andy Mac you Merkins should just forfeit the season.

Ha ha

We won because we played better.

It's kinda how it works mate.

i looked at the match report and it had numbers next to our name that were higher than the numbers next to the broncos name maybe there's a connection there

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Those are just 'stats'. They mean nothing.

McCullough's stats were far superior to King. How did we win is anyone's guess.

Might explain why McCullough has won more games in his career though.

But not how Parra won the match over the Broncos, which goes to the original argument that getting the two points outweighs the stats needed to get those two points.

Well I'd suggest most teams want to win more than once.

My computer hasn't worked for a couple of days but still on a high since Friday night.

What an amazing win!! These boys showed so much commitment and never gave up. Even at 12-0 behind I thought if we can jag a try before half time we'd be confident, but we got 2 and really muscled up in defence.

I'm so proud of the boys. People wrote us off because we played a top side in Brisbane and also had season ending injuries in Scott and Kaysa and now the inform Gutherson but we played as a team no matter who was out there.

Ive been impressed with Moses since he made the transfer, I knew this guy had talent, maybe he wasn't allowed to play his style at the Tigers but since he's come here he's really confident with his football.

Brown, Manu and that run from Matagi. Amazing.

I put that down as one of the best wins in a long time, thanks to Brad Arthur's coaching.

28 points in the past is normally enough to get into the finals but Id love us to keep going.

Moses was a gun through 2015 and 2016, at least in attack. He consistently created linebreaks and tries, but because of the Tigers' poor defence they always found themselves behind on the scoreboard. Then it looks like the halves' fault that they can't conjure a try whenever it's needed (six times a game). No halfback can create a try every time it's needed. Teams need to be able to defend the tries he does create.

And obviously his own defence was badly exposed in a shitty defensive side.

I recall last season Poo where Brooks was absent and Moses did all the half back stuff. He was terrific.
I still think he maybe chances his arm a tad more than he should but his effort and improvement thus far at The Eels has been great. I cant believe how good he is defensively. Thanks BA and Jenko. Was great to see Corey running again as well.

Yeah, I don't think it can be overstated how much Jenko has been responsible for Moses' improvements defensively.

Yep, Jenkovic has been very good. Possibly going past Whare as best defensive centre around.
