I haven't watched a lot of the Cows this year.

What puzzles me is that on paper,and with JT not going to the Panthers,you'd think they would have more winning form then where they are on the table.

Another season over mid year.

What joy.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

atleast asiata look slike a promising rookie

You've never seen a grubbered kick-off before? Watch some more footy. It doesn't have to go 10 on the full.

Honestly, if it's legal, teams should do it more often. If their kicker has some pace like Sandow does, they can easily regather.

not rangy enough tbh

You're the ultimate defeatist, Canard. The Cows have been terrible away from home but you can still make the 8.

when coops is back fit again our rangyness will be back at a high

 

[Poupou Escobar]

pathetic

why do the cowboys turn into geniuss who can't play when they leave queensland?

Don't forget other teams perform poorly in the Townsville conditions.

doesnt explain the dropped ball and wrong 5th tackle options away from home. It's clear that they can't play until the game/season is on the line

 

[Noa]

It's easier to play in cool conditions then humid.

Eric Simms had a lethal grubber kick-off in the 60's & 70's.

A good tactic Souths used on many occasions.

Frankly making 8th position is a failed season.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

morgs for origin

 

[TheVelourFog]

Sandow in for DCE?

We will limp into the 8 and lose to Manly in the first week. There will be a controversial refereeing decision. JT will be cautioned for arguing with the referees. Despite that we will fight back and eventually lose by 8 points. I will throw an empty bottle at the TV.

Nailed it.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

did joey manage to make it all the way down to Haynes sack?

 

[Rhino_NQ]

Nailed it.

getting rorted against a different team would be a nice change

 

[hineyrulz]

:lol: Parra should have won by 20, our mistakes and all round derpness kept the Cows in the game. Then we got nervous and tried to throw the game away, anyone who thinks the Cowboys were robbed are kidding themselves. Refs were woeful for both sides.

We were shocking tonight and still came within 2 points. We didnt deserve to win, but we still could have anyway if not for some more refereeing f**k ups. Two tries scored from forward passes (ok, it can be hard for the on field referee to get them right all the time) and then a fair one disallowed for us by the video ref who has the benefit replays and various angles. That should be a case of an ugly win, but instead its just another away loss to add to the tally of robberies.
