Rd11: Eels v Manly GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank 20/5/22

Doesn't mean he was wrong, you only have to see how we have attacked historically in all Bea's time here. The only time ww really go through the middle is when Guth takes a scoot. But yeah thoughts in my head.

Fast hookers are very expensive. They're the ones who tend to run a lot at any team.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Yeah I don’t understand why Gutho is pushing him out of the way each time there’s an opportunity. If I was the coach I’d be letting Gutho know it’s not on.

imagine rheed pushing Gutho into the line of defense and he taking gutho’s role at fb.

Gutherson takes the run because he is quicker, which doesn't say much for Mahoney.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I think when he runs he’s effective but doesn’t do it enough to create much for us.

Maybe he only runs when it is definitely on, rather than making probing and yardage runs like Grant and Cook.

Euphemism???

Kikau inked a four-year deal while Mahoney’s contract was reportedly worth $2.4m over three years.

‘No regrets at all’: Kikau remains committed to Canterbury

Viliame Kikau has no second thoughts about his move next year, with the Bulldogs confirming there were no Trent Barrett clauses in his nor Reed Mahoney’s deals.

Likely overstated but would certainly be more than the $500k per year hypercritical merkins thought we could get him for if we'd only 'shown him respect' by opening with our highest offer.

Nope they are just thoughts in my head.

mate, what happened to the rug ?

 

[TheParraboy]

This is a f**king lie you merkins keep repeating. He wasn't moved to centre to accommodate anybody. He was moved because we didn't have enough centres.

What a load of corck, we could have wheeled Marata out there in a moonboot, or signed Curtis Scott..

They aren’t thoughts in your head.

because Ba has started games with stone, Edwards and Gutho at hooker. Proof is in the pudding. Maybe doesn’t understand the attacking potential from there or rate the position in terms of points

Didn’t he put that on ba’s head?

I think BA lacks a wholistic approach to the game of rugby league

Front load, collision, eyes up...... this concludes your training

 

[Joshuatheeel]

These are make believe thoughts in your head.

BA wants a tackling machine, so he purchases a playing making hooker to replace Mahoney….

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Peats said similar when he left for the Titans, it's hardly a shock.


Two of Bea's all time favs De Gois and Prichard loved leading the line speed and chasing the collision, but were about as creative as you. But yeah thoughts in my head.

Peats played group 7 yesterday at 31, a good indication of what NRL clubs think of him….BA probably got the best from Peats within his capabilities…

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Our halves are better runners then Mahoney….rather they get the good ball rather then wasting it on a Reed run

He did? Where’s he played the past 2.5 years?

didn’t Ba make a play for peats a couple years ago?

That will happen when you break your neck and do a couple of ACL's.

probably where next years signing should be. But let’s just defend no matter what.

Early contender for 2023 signing of the year!!

Yeah and he chose to go to the UK to play second division instead!!

Lmao. This post could very easily become the silliest in 23.
