Match Discussion: Round 8 vs Melbourne @ McDonald Jones Stadium, New Lambton

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Haha they're high fiving and cheering because Melbourne dropped the ball

 

[Yosh]

Sasagi has been pretty good. Up against Olam but going harder and faster than any other player on our team.

 

[The Axe of Druss]

I hate this club but im too stubborn to quit supporting them

 

[Apey]

Melbourne are bored with this game now.

 

[Yosh]

Reckon we might go for a field goal to increase our points scored by 50%?

 

[Das Hassler]

Melbourne are bored with this game now.

And you can be sure Bellamy will be giving them a serve regardless of the score

 

[Loose Cannon]

Our attack is crisp.

 

[Yosh]

AOB thinking real hard about the post match conference there.

 

[slotmachine]

Lovely pass from Crossland. Hook everyone I reckon

 

[Tom155]

Clifford has to come back on now

 

[Loose Cannon]

Oh shit, Clifford back on.

 

[Jono078]

Can any stats buffs tell me if a team has lost 2 weeks in a row where they've scored just 2 points in each game?

It's actually embarassing.

 

[Yosh]

I think we have found our halfback. Klemmer is looking good with them short balls.

 

[Tom155]

Going to be 48pts now

 

[Walk On Home Boy]

So...another spoon...

How the actual f**k are we back where we started despite seemingly everything else improving at the club? The fact that Bennett got this rabble of a club to a prelim years ago probably speaks more to his ability than most of us would like to admit. Idc that we made the 8 for the past 2 years, we've looked rubbish under AOB.

Worst part about all of this is that nothing will change. No one will be held accountable except a young, inexperienced halfback who couldn't change this trainwreck if he was the second coming of Andrew Johns.

We're burning it all down yet again boys. Another false dawn, who'd have thunk it?

 

[Jono078]

We have unlocked a new achievement!

Most points conceded by any team after 8 rounds. Unless the Tigers put 40 on the Dragons.

 

[Loose Cannon]

Only 2 more points and we can’t win the comp.

 

[Yosh]

We got unlucky by making the 8 two years in a row. We should have come 9th or 10th and fired AOB already.

 

[Jono078]

We're burning it all down yet again boys. Another false dawn, who'd have thunk it?

This is actually the terrifying part for me.. With each week where we continue to have these performances you have to start looking at wholesale changes to rid whatever toxicity exists.

I'm not ready to go through another rebuild. Watching the Dogs the last few years has been ugly as f**k and we were that just 5 years ago.

 

[Apey]

If we can hold them out for 6 minutes we can still win the comp.
