2019 R23 Thu - Eels 6-12 Bulldogs @ Bankwest

[Dave's mate]

Its truly bizarre that people rate "King Gutho"

 

[King hit]

What a cracking game that was who doesn’t love a good hard Eels V Bulldogs battle. Credit to the Bulldogs for finishing the year strongly giving their fans something to be proud of.

 

[Xcalibre]

Another gutsy af win built on defence. Only conceded 6 points 2 weeks in a row. Well done Bulldogs!

If not for a horrendous f/a they actually might have had a million to one shot at finals.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

f**k we bombed some tries. Great defence by the Dogs.

It’s like gaz is a used car salesman trying to talk up an old Datsun with two wheels and no steering wheel

 

[Bazal]

Sigh. Game of inches. Sivo nabs one of those three tries and who knows?

One of those good-shit games....both sides attacked like they had MS but the defence and intensity was great all game. Dogs are just better at that slog than we are, we've never ever been good at combating that spoiling game.

 

[mozza91]

Even though there was plenty of errors that game was enjoyable as f**k. Great stuff from the Dogs.

 

[aqua_duck]

Gotto hand it to the dogs, not a great team by any means but tough, gritty and have this ability to make the opposition drop down to their level

 

[age.s]

LU game day threads carry games like this big time.

It’s embarrassing for the Wests Tigers that Canterbury now join them on 20 points lol

 

[Bazal]

I haven't poked my head in yet, but if anyone wants a laugh I'd suggest the Eels forum is probably well worth a look

 

[veggiepatch1959]

Gutherson wouldn’t pass herpes on in an gang bang ffs..

But who did he catch it from.

Regan Campbell-Gillard?

 

[Xcalibre]

That sort of tackle is why I like Jackson as a player. The bagging of him is pathetic.

He’s not the most flamboyant backrower but show me a tougher one that works himself to death every week and I’ll tip my hat.

Tbh, he’s been much better along with the team the last 6 weeks. The rest of the season he was pretty ploddy.

 

[GongPanther]

There was a long pause in the commentary box followed by a "Moses is just trying to do his best to save a try in that situation"

I thought as much.

 

[Tommy Smith]

Why do Parramatta players act like brash Americans on the field?

Bunch of wannabe NFL players.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Yall still don't believe my theory? You coulda got $3.35 odds betting against the bald coach

That would be a finish! It would be crazy if they got to the finals.

Leave Mary alone

 

[Sphagnum]

Imagine if the dogs had foran all year. That would've been a top.of the table clash

 

[Eelementary]

Sucked in Parra .

Congrats Dogs how good!

While we do suck, a little perspective, please:

We came dead last in 2018.

We are playing Finals in 2019.

Ok, sure - we will get slaughtered in the Finals - but at least we made it.

We're a middle of the road team. We all know this.

Congrats, Doggies!
