Rd20: 615pm EELS v Titans GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank Stadium 16/7/23

Well yeah I just hope the momentum we lost during the last 3 weeks of origin due to losing Moses, Gutho and Reg for a crucial game was worth it.

We are going to have to win probably 2 games on the road as heavy underdogs. And clean up at home.

I wonder will it be lumelume for sivo. Rcg will be a shame as we go forward when hes there. Jnr first half was good but his 2nd was shit.

But ogden has filled in well for rcg

 

[Noise]

Do you even watch footy?

Kicking game was good. Playmaking way off and defence was poor tonight (15 tackles, 5 missed, 1 ineffective)

The seasons going to have been ruined by stupidity. First Matterson then Dylan Brown now we'll probably be down RCG for a month due to a totally ridiculous tackle.

 

[Bandwagon]

We defended 11v13, that shit is gonna take it out of you, but we took home the two points

Ugly win, but we earned it.

It was Gutherson who was terrible tonight. Minus 2 really good plays.

Probably a bit knackered with the five day turnaround

One of those seasons

His kicking game was good, play making was good, Lacked a spring in his step due to fatigue probably. Defense I don't even watch so not sure.

 

[T-Boon]

We got the win, overcame some big challenges but we won.

FMD the carry on from some people reacting to every single play in here is cringeworthy.

Its half the fun. I try to flip out at least once per set.

 

[Parra]

Well that was f**king loose

 

[IFR33K]

And some want Simonsson off the shit list.

he’s been sensational for the past 5 or 6 weeks. Can’t crucify him for a dropped ball!

 

[IFR33K]

Wow

This place is a ghost town...

I'll try and get a source for that by the way....

officer Doofy has scared them off.

If you're tackling under 75% effectiveness you are not defending well.

Did you watch the game or just look at the stats?

Both. Noticed he was missing a bunch of tackles so checked after the game.

 

[Eelogical]

We drag ourselves to the opposition level whatever the level of the opposition it seems.

Take out the 2 sin bins the score was 23-10 when 13 on 13.

Why take the two sin bins into the equation? If we're ill-disciplined enough to warrant players being punted to the bin then that's on us. No excuses......

 

[yy_cheng]

Moses defense was really good tonight too

 

[Poupou Escobar]

*tired first graders

Yeah heaps tired. Who, in your opinion, played too long?

Merkin	Minutes
Hopgood	63
RCG	50
Paulo	45
Matterson	45
Davey	19
Ofahengaue	13

And in such a tight game, if anyone needed a rest, why wouldn't you bring any other merkin on the bench back on, before blowing an interchange bringing on Moretti the reserve grader? How much rest do you think they need ffs

Moretti is there as a reward and for his development. If he gets on the field it's not because we need him. With three middles on the bench we literally never need him unless we get a couple of injuries.

Sounds like a Saturday night at the Uki pub.
