Game Day - Round 1 v Cowboys

[chewsta]

Well played Bakuya. f**king hell holmes ive defended you but all of that was dogshit. Get on the wing or f**k right off.

 

[PJ]

So f$%king make it.

Obvious to everyone.

 

[++ Gregos v.4]

It's round 1. It's a tough road trip.

Calm your tits everyone.

Well we lost against the cows in 2016 rd 1 and look what happened that year...

Barba was fullback and helped win a premiership?

 

[sandshark]

Mmmmm Yeah I'm so sure.
Id say that is the worst game ive watched in a long time. Granted we have been blessed in 2016 but we plain and simple look rubbish in attack. Granted we lost our winger but yeah it was terrible.
Holmes - I'm speechless
I was a bit pffttt...when they signed Hodgson, but id have him in there somewhere next week, just as a settler.

Yep I think Townsend needs that "old-head" partner to run the show. Gonna be interesting to see if Flanno spices things up next week.
(He probably will not.)

 

[roboshark]

So how long katoa out for

So how long katoa out for

I’d say six weeks with a broken jaw.

f**ked injury.

Mentally hard to come back from as well.

Recovery is such a merkin.

Yep - never one to pull the pin early Flanno and don't blame him really. Things have worked for him, but the writing is on the wall for Holmes. Love the bloke but he looked like he was well out of his depth tonight. Forwards looked good, backs need a lot of work

Brailey was at least 6 weeks wasn't he - more like 9 I reckon.
Is it confirmed as broken jaw?
Fugg Peter Beattie

 

[carinashark]

Well that was a good hit out . We can improve pretty quick. Seggy , good game!

 

[Card Shark]

Peter Beattie, you’re no longer the Premier. Cut the arse licking!

No. Suspected. Took him for a roentogram

 

[Craigshark]

Forwards showed they’ll match it and can beat anyone. Cowboys have arguably the best pack in the comp.. it’s just unfortunate it looks like the attack will take a long time to click. Tonight showed that we will miss Maloney.

 

[roboshark]

Oh well the NRL got what they wanted with Thurston's 300 game

 

[Eion]

He just doesn’t seem to know what to do. Hoped he’d learn, but it’s the same issues...only worse.

It’s not guts as he runs the ball hard. It’s confidenxe.... or maybe he just doesn’t have a great footy brain. Don’t know

 

[Card Shark]

It's round 1. It's a tough road trip.

Calm your tits everyone.

Absolutely - I never take much notice of round 1.

Tough road trip.

Most worrying thing was the ill-discipline of last year has re-appeared.

 

[Stake Removed]

Chad is 27 himself he should be able to run the show

 

[M2D2]

Holmes to wing.
Dugan to FB Ramien to center or Moylan to FB Hodko to 6.

 

[shadowboxer]

Peter Beattie, you’re no longer the Premier. Cut the arse licking!

He was wearing one of Bob Carr's suits - flog central.
No issue with Thurston 300 games but Peter Beattie rolled out and gave that rubbish speech, I'm surprised he didn't bring up Asada and his thoughts on the sharks......

 

[azzah72]

My quickest summary is we were rusty and a bit shit but Holmes is the only one that was actually shit. Useless game.
Only way is up and that's a good thing.
