Rd1 2024: 530pm Parra v Dogs GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank Stadium (sold out) March 9th

[Stevie]

Look you can’t knock Crighton he tried his ass off and i thought looked dangerous with limited opportunity. He’s a big game player who I’d love in our team!

Yeah but he needs to be their fullback. As if they are not a way better team with Critta at 1 and Taafe playing park football.

 

[Bandwagon]

Yep, our middles dominated, doesn't matter how well he played, when you lose the middle that convincingly the best centre in the f**king world aint gonna make much difference.

Except of course in goal line D.

 

[King-Gutho94]

So good to be back at the footy. I love our home ground.

It really has been a game changer for us as a team since 2019.

Its the best footy ground in Sydney and we are lucky to have to it.

Our record there is pretty imposing.

Last year was our worst year win-loss wise yet still won over 60% of games at commbank last season.

 

[yy_cheng]

I think will was really good.

He has put some aggro and confidence in himself.

I reckon hes better than suallii.

I reckon he'll be captain one day

 

[T-Boon]

That crowd looked fantastic. For those who were there was it loud?

That was because our club accepted that crap draw of Thursday and Friday nights. That should never happen again. 20k plus crowds each week should be a massive advantage.

Yeah. Dogs fans early were super loud. Our boys quietened them down though.

Who is the pommy journo in the presser ? He always asks the dumbest zingers.

Mike Meehall Wood. Thinks he's the smartest person in the room. His questions to coaches and the fact he writes for The Roar say otherwise.

I thought his effort was generally horrid.

At the 68th minute he’d had 4 touches all game.

for an $800k marquee player that’s just lazy.

he got to 8 touches by the end of the game, but that’s 1 per 10mins.

8 touches in 34 sets.

he was outplayed by Morgan Harper on 1/4 his wage.

Hehe. Crichton was playing dirty in Sivo’s corner and Carty took exception. Mr $800k took the next hitup and Carty nailed him in the ribs. Mr 800k got up verrry slowly.

That was funny as Crichton had a dig at Will as he got him on the last.

Takes the next hitup and got creamed by Carty & Will. Then we smashed them on the next run.

No charge for Carty as expected

NRL Judiciary Report: Kiwi games counted in NAS ban

They had 35% possession and all they did was tackle. Oh and he is a centre! What did you expect him to do?

I don't feel that we ever play to his strengths. He's quick all right. His ol' man was a bullet as well.

Their completion rate was woeful too. They didn't have the ball long enough on each set for him to do much.

Mahoney’s biggest problem is he tries too hard against us. He is such a one dimensional little try hard. Now there is a good chance that the Dogs could show him the door for the second time.

To be fair, he tries too hard because he doesn’t have a 6 or 7 capable of doing shit.
