Rd2: 4:05pm Parra v Wests Tigers GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank 16/3/25

[Eelementary]

You'll change your mind if/when we go through the season winless, which is very much on the cards. Bookmark this post.

I almost posted the same thing, but I figured, "Surely, we win at least one game....right?"

But honestly, I have zero confidence in this team.

We're going to get nil'd by the bloody tigers. Seems like Ryles isn't as good as some were making out here.

Moses 1.2
JAC 500k
Simmonson 300k
PO Matterson 650K

Majority of Gutherson and RCG money to spend.

That's probably around 3.5 mill. Throw in Jnr on his big bucks and LANE and there is plenty of excuses for JR.

I'm prepared to give him time. Maybe not 11yrs tho

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

He was Hopbad today

Hopless.

That's loser talk. I expect us to improve this season to the point where we'll win a few. The end game is next year +. I don't need to bookmark your post. I'm sure you'll remind me.

So apart from everything I just read on the previous 17 pages, everything else is all good yeah?

everything is shmickarooney.

 

[JokerEel]

In support of what?

Player with th ball??

 

[JokerEel]

This is how you strip teams out wide as it holds the defense up . It was really good in the first trial actually but since then we're probably bigger or noone telling them to run as decoys

I don't understand how we have gone back to playing so poorly in attack after that first trial

 

[T-Boon]

Russell has been schooled by Teruva. He is a reserve grader every day.

I genuinely think it’s time for us to make a call on Penisini. He’s not become the player we’d hoped and he is not a first grader. Let’s admit defeat and f**k him off.

Who are we bringing in to replace them?
We could ask Penisini to take a pay cut. The kid is so slow.

 

[T-Boon]

When is JAC back?

 

[senior]

When is JAC back?

next week

 

[T-Boon]

Here is what I would try:
1. Lomax
2. JAC
3. Penisini
4. Brown
5. Russell
6. iongi
7 V-man (or is there someone else)

 

[Eelogical]

Yes, but there are a lot of things within your power and control that you can fix up.

It still took our ugly lot 5 minutes to realise that theyd won.

Your team has improved significantly. Ours has regressed for the time being. Congratulations on a well earned victory.

It's harder when the opposition want to tackle you.

Hawkins is back, surely he couldnt do worse then volk

 

[T-Boon]

Anyway boys, I love you all (not in a bummy way).
I'll be a ray of optimism this year and I am not going to do any more rule change threads. They are in my past.

 

[The Silverdale Phantom]

Im wondering how many of those mighty McLomax burgers were sold?

Our fans would eat anything you put in front of us. Especially Benji tonight.

We look forward to being f**ked again next week.

 

[Hindmarshisgod2]

I honestly thought we looked good early, and if we scored when we had them stripped out wide but volkman went short and stuffed it, it would have been a different game. We still have the dumbest players that just always seem to take the wrong option. I dont know if this can be fixed. The cleanout needs to continue. This team is broken and it seems it's only the new signings that have played OK this season.

Ryles needs 2 years to fix this. It can't happen in 1 off season. He's already started the clean out and is doing the right thing in my opinion....

I think our team over indulged in those things. They looked the perfect bait for a 1080 campaign in the bush.

 

[Hindyplodder]

Fixing this by losing to the awful Tigers team.
Numbnuts ryles is already running out of ideas and it's only round 2.

Hawkins had to leave the field with 20mins to go in NSW cup so could be injured again. And tbh he didn’t do much to inspire picking him over Volkman anyways.
