2025 Rabbitohs Round 7 - Vs Bulldogs

[Dogmatix]

Cody looked all his 35 years today. Time to retire

Souths recruitment has fallen behind the times and they don't have the squad. Lost 32-0 in NRL and 62-18 in NSW Cup today. Bulldogs have improved recruitment under Gus and it shows in today's results

 

[Det.Wojciehowicz]

Dogs just too good, we were poor by comparison. I can handle losing to a red hot team, it's when you lose to sh*tbag teams like Parramatta that really hurts.

 

[Eric the great]

I honestly thought the dogs might have dropped there guard today but they made south’s look like a bottom eight side today

How come Euen Atkin (?) gets to waltz into first grade, from another club, after six months of injury, straight into first grade. Sure is the way to build team moral, here I am, busting my gut for the team, every week, we are three wins and one loss, and I'm moved/dropped. if I am Campbell Graham or Isaih Tass, I'm a bit pissed.

Well done Wayne (someone trusts in you apparently)

Maybe it’s got something to do with all our wingers being injured and 2 of our halves

 

[The Silverdale Phantom]

Better second half in all the circumstances.

Lost but not beaten

 

[JFK Files]

I also think Cody is done, and Latrell can’t play five eighth next week.

 

[Det.Wojciehowicz]

A couple of positives to take away.Despite the score, we defended well considering how much ball they had. Dodd also showed that he is up to NRL standard. We just need to keep Trell in the centres and only use Cody,Humphreys and Dodd in the halves.

 

[Eric the great]

Trell has played the last two games like a bloke who is shitty about playing out of his preferred position the game against the roosters he played like a leader his mind seems to be somewhere else hope Melbourne are off there game next week

Graham is one of the best centres in Sydney, why isn't Euen, of who I have high regard, relegated to wing, but, your missing the whole point, that being team building and moral, which is down to Bennett.

the thing is, Souths just played garbage, same as last week, they were very poorly prepared, obvious that a number of players were in the wrong position and didn't want to be there. Down to Wayne.

Can't wait till Sam returns.

 

[speedster]

Geez, some er, interesting perspectives.

Wayne will be hoping more troops are back next week so he can select the side he had been planning for in the preseason instead of all stop gap shuffling on the run.

Latrell is being wasted being played where he is at present out of necessity. I'll leave that up to Wayne but he's our superstar gun playing out of position. Time to get the most out of him instead of the least.

Would love to see AJ back again so we can leave Tass out altogether, Graham can return to centre and Aitken can play on an edge where he is supposed to.

im guessing it’s a team sport, and we don’t lose as much as a team with stretch on the wing and Aitkin in the centres as we do with stretch at centre at Myers or Aitkin on the wing.
If Aj was fit we wouldnt be having this conversation and Aitkin would be on the bench.
Wayne won a title with Beau Scott playing centre on occasions if I remember correctly.

Yeah I thought our blokes despite conceding 32 were actually hitting hard all game in defence and as hard as they have all year.
There was a lot of effort too in cleaning up balls on the ground(Tatola) and Wighton chasing down Burton when he made the break and getting the interception when the game was almost over.
Offensively though not a lot to talk about.

 

[madball]

For the most part I thought the Rabbits defended pretty well, given the weight of possession against them. Sure there were a couple of soft tries, which p'ssed me off, but it wasn't all bad in that sense.
With the ball, when they had it, was another story. Stupid off-loads, poor handling and generally directionless. (Plus WTF was with the round-about Jack was going around?
Dogs win that game even without the shoddy refereeing, but it would've been nice to see what might have happened if it was ref'd fairly.

 

[Eric the great]

On the refereeing Atkins gets ten for arm grab Montoya gets ten for little slap and kikau only gets on report for attacking grahams head with a swinging arm that drew blood wtf

 

[Det.Wojciehowicz]

The score could have really got ugly but the boys never dropped their bundles in defense. One more thing, I'm sick to death of Kikau's Mr Tough Guy routine. It's like the refs are too intimidated to pull him up.

Not sure exactly how many times The Loft has to say this but I shall re-state it: Canterbury will win nothing they will come up short and they are not and never will be Bellamy's Melbourne or Cleary's Penrith. Let us quit the nonsense that they are "awesome" or the like.
