Rd19: Parra v Broncos GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank 21/7/22

[84 Baby]

Are you disappointed no one else joined in with your match day comments?

Hey mod, go f**k yourself

 

[Incorrect]

But really one loss proves nothing. Any more than one win does.

So let's not look at this loss in isolation then. Let's look at in conjunction with the losses to the Cowboys, the Dogs and the Roosters (magic round).... Hell, let's include the win over the Tigers at Leichhardt and the 2 wins v the last placed Titans in this sample.... Wins and losses and all very very poor performances that highlighted significant defensive frailties that coaching staff have had since Round 1 to fix, but haven't.... As someone else pointed out in this thread, only twice this year have opponents scored less than 18 points against us. That's laughable for a so called top 4 aspirant, even a top 6 aspirant.....

Yep. I said we should move in from him last season. Most didn't agree.

To be fair, though, he was playing good footy last year.

This year, he has been an uncoordinated hack.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Listen merkin. The pork tomahawk was too much. I'm constipated and can't even blow wind. I should of stuck with SALMON

You probably absorbed all the pork.

The good news is we haven't yet played our best footy.

The good news is we haven't yet played our best footy.

And as long as Brad Arthur is at the helm, we never will.

I don't feel any better this morning.

In fact I feel more sick then what I did watching the game last night.

I had a bad feeling the game would pan out how it did. But after 10 mins I thought we were on and broncos were off.

Game changed when Waqa got stripped one on one at 6-4. I don't think we touched it for 10 mins and was 18-4 in a blink of an eye.

I actually think the Broncos didn't play that great which makes last night even worse. That whole 2nd half we dominated yet looked clueless at times in attack.

The good news is we haven't yet played our best footy.

And we have a coach who lives between 5-7 min from the club depending on traffic, it's so handy. Massive advantage over the other clubs, who said we don't have advantages???

 

[Eelementary]

I'm still baffled as to how their first try was allowed...the ball ricocheted back into Blake Griffin's shoulder, and the imbeciles in the bunker thought, "Nah, the shoulder isn't t part of the arm - play on!"

Hmm. He still lacked speed and attack.
I'm a firm believer guys like this eventually get worked out. Same as Mahoney. Not enough tricks.

You always must change and freshen squad. Ours is stale

True. And Blake bombed 2 tries also. Plus the one he had disallowed.
But every week we say similar. A lot of IFS

He did have fewer tricks to his bow, true.

But what he did have, he used quite well, up until 2022.

He has been absolutely horrible in 2022.

We didn't deserve to win, playing like that - but I can't stomach ridiculously bad calls.

 

[Twizzle]

well that was a bit shit, dunno what the trip to Terrigal was supposed to achieve

been saying it for a while now, our defense has deteriorated since Kidwell left

He has been responsible for letting in 24 tries, the most for fullbacks. The next most is Reece Walsh with 17. Captain Gutho lol, give me a break.

We should have seen the alarm bells in Round 1 when GC put 28 points on us in 45 mins at Home.

Lucky we won that game but warning signs were there from Day 1.

 

[Twizzle]

it takes 13 players to let a try in, unless Gutho is scapegoat for the day

completely agree, our defense this year compared to last year has been shit

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Your dumb gimp of a hooker refuses to go right to Moses, his pass selection is horrid in the attacking 20. Will shovel to DBrown very slow, or hit a pig that’s stood still.

Gutherson is shit.

All i copped all night were messages from Born Again Donkey's fans, the weak merkins have rediscovered RL after 3 years of forgetting it existed.

It's bad enough i had to sit through a pissweak piss poor effort from a bunch of players who look like they couldn't give a f**k with a dopey coach sitting up the box with a stupid bewildered look on his face. All these wankers have come out of the woodwork. Everyone can go suck on a fart!!!!

Brisbane have fair weather fans i reckon a few them back in march would have considered flip flopping over to the Dolphins next year if the Broncos didn't pull the finger out this year.
