3-2-1 v Eels

[Meth]

3- Godinet. Provided spark, and his defense seems to have improved somewhat.
2- Matulino
1- Nielsen

Mateo trying too hard.

Rubbish across the park. Outplayed all over the show.

 

[Meth]

Disappointed with Sam Rapira. Was really hoping to see a lift in his game tonight.

His brother was average too.

 

[Scorpio30]

No points.
Sandow>Johnson.
Hayne>>>>>>>>Locke
Fish not up to it.
Some of those Eel numpties looked like champions tonight.

 

[JoeD]

Really hard to pick. The word that comes to mind is anonymous. It's hard to remember who was even playing. Godinet deserves points, he's the only one so give him 3.
Not sure i agree about Mateo. Don't really remember him being involved that much and when he was don't remember an offload.

 

[Abdullah]

big disappointments:
Hurrell - fitness is rock bottom, defence is just shock- say hi to the vulcans for 6 mths
Fish - how many more chance you waant maate??? - take hint and play well or p1ss off
Taylor - slow and lacks juice - pack bags and go to daddy cleary now - Godinet did much better
Rapiras - both suck - Sammy needs to be man and take off the skirt, his brother, well he jusst not good enough for first grade - too slow and cant tackle.

OK my 3-2-1 finally
3. Matalino
2. Godinet
1. Luluai

 

[JoeD]

Can I add to Abdullah's list?

Mannering - injured? It's the only reason I can think of for such a por performance.

 

[attila_the_gorilla]

Minus points only

-3 Johnson
-2 Taylor
-1 Mateo

Fish and Hurrell honourable mentions.

 

[Alan Johnson]

That graffiti on the wall of the gym has worked wonders.

 

[Izz]

3. Matulino
2. Godinet
1. Lillyman

What a poor start to the season.

9 in a row, now.

 

[Aragorn]

Johnson was absolute crap.

Hurrell was huffing and puffing so hard he almost blew the house down.

defense out wide much better - although expected given both Manu & Tupou were not there.

Our spine - Taylor, Johnson & Locke - wooden spoon material

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Missed the game.

I regret nothing.

Brand new season, but same mental midgets.

 

[Alan Johnson]

But Andrew Johns promised us that Johnson would be great

3 - Godinet
2 - Matulino
1 - Neilson

Rubbish start to season, no intensity to pin them in goal when we had our shot.
Saw Mannering turning after tackles returning to line with hands in air asking where to go, Locke obviously wasnt talking at the back.
Piss weak defense on Sandow, Steve Rapira got caught out being lazy in line.
Taylor is not a number 9, bring him on for 10mins to give Godinet a break.
No one is following Mateo.
Fish do you want to play?
How many penalties did we want to give away!
Intercepts anyone!
63% completion rate.
Could be a long season!

How many to turn up at Eden Park next week? <10 000

 

[Dr Crane]

gave up at 12-0, could see exactly what was going to happen.

Can't really add to that except to say I can't remember a round one game we ever won but this was shocking, but after last year should be used to it.

 

[Micistm]

3-2-1 to the players that had the good sense to **** off

I know it's only round one, but they need to get their shit sorted fast. At least show something to indicate there will be some fight this year. No one expects immediate results, for sure, but at least not a reason to turn off in disgust and boot up Black ops instead. They are a pro side FFS, it is about time they show it. The amateur mistakes are just not good enough.

It's damn lucky they didn't get voiced over thoughts from Elliot SBW style. The only good thing is I think Elliot will tear them a new arsehole for that...Bluey would have assigned them councilling. It's bad enough putting up with the second string commentators, we don't have to hand them ammunition.

I hope Vossy is well paid, could be a long season for him. It is only round one... but I'll be buggered if I'll be watching that sort of thing every week

Talent alone is not enough...never has been

 

[Alan Johnson]

I'm no expert or anything, but I suspect he doesn't have the head for it. All the ability in the world but in the heat of the moment the instinct isn't what it needs to be.
