2019 R21 Sat - Bulldogs 18-16 Wests Tigers @ ANZ

[Silent Knight]

Enjoy that one Dogs fans, they were clearly the better team. Lots of heart.

Tigers...nothing more than cannon fodder for the top 5 if they even make it to the finals. When a 50 year old Benji is the only spark you have in attack you know you have issues going forward.

You're exactly right but we've been in the exact same situation 3 of the last 4 year's and a bottom 4 trash team has knocked us out of finals contention

Idc what anyone says we're easily the most frustrating team to follow

That’s generous. I’d call it more a flicker then a spark

Oh it goes back a lot further my friend

Vs. Newcastle rd 26 2004, win we are in but lost

Vs. Newcastle rd 26 2007, win we are in but blow a 12 point lead and lose

Meh that will do, we know the rest

 

[sensesmaybenumbed]

He said hi, good night and lol at that goal kick and semi chance

What a scholar.

What's the bet we get a 2nd chance at making it in the R25 game and we bottle that aswell

TBH I hope Manly just put us to the sword next week and officially end our season aswell as the Farah & Marshall fairytale. Sick of it

 

[edabomb]

That kick was really weird. It wasn't a mishit as he absolutely drilled it well wide. I'm sure the integrity unit will investigate.

 

[gordsy]

So, for the Tigers fans.

How do you rate Maguire?

Excellent he just has a rubbish team to work with. Brooks isn't great despite what most Tigers fans will tell you, Benji is rocks and diamonds and our pack scares no one. Couple with stupid signings like Packer, Reynolds, Mats and Mybe, there's not much Madge can do for a while. We are actually competing better though.

It could be worse. You could follow a club that has won 3 spoons in a row, patiently waiting for the day when you have assembled a NRL-standard squad and then when you finally have a NRL-standard squad watch them wallow around the same lowly spot on the ladder and realise the past 4 years have been a complete sham. It could be worse.

I actually admired your team when you dispatched us and the Cowboys. You were disciplined in defence (more so the Cowboys game) and patient in attack but last night was a major step back. If you played the way you had the past fortnight you should have won this game.

 

[OldPanther]

Ennis slammed this send off. Is this right or wrong do you think?

 

[roofromoz]

Like I said in another thread. It's a lottery and I honestly don't think anyone on the field knows what's going on.

The finals should be interesting.

I will be pleasantly surprised if Chris Smith does not get at least 3 weeks for that.

It's our inconsistency that is frustrating.
If we play well and lose to a better team, I can stomach that but last nights game should show Tigers fans that IF we make the finals, we'll just be making up the numbers.

Last night was a game that we needed to win, and should have won, if we had any chance to have any chance of being a force to be reckoned with in the finals.

Oh well. There's always next year. Sigh.

Congrats to Doggies fans. At least they're having a go and giving hope for next year.

Not late, not high, disgraceful. Same with the Garner one.

The Dogs will pull your pants down if you do not take advantage of your first half ascendancy. They did exactly the same to us last week. They are very determined once they get a sniff.

They are getting very paranoid

 

[The unknown]

We gave the Dogs a leg up as soon as our dickhead captain injured himself in the warm up and declared himself fit to play when we had a fully fit 18th man ready to play. As soon as I saw the merkin hobbling onto the field I knew he wouldn't last more than 10 mins

Add to that Farah getting injured then having ET at #9 is a massive downgrade, it's no wonder we looked like a bunch of spastics

Brian Carney in the corner at Campbelltown in the last minute.
I nearly broke my TV set.

That game was at Newcastle. The Campbelltown game was the Cowboys in the wet a couple of weeks beforehand. Another disaster where Halatau kept dropping it.
