Rd21: 735pm EELS v Cowboys GAME DAY THREAD @ Country Bank Stadium 22/7/23

[Noise]

What are the chances we actually sign an outside back to fill a spot this week? I know our recruitment team have done a marvelous job signing quality like Davey and Joffa and prior to that Hodgson, Murchie, Momoisea and Doorey but surely what we need is a first grader who is an outside back.

We should stick with waqa. He's part of the team,give him another go. He'll prove us wrong

 

[JokerEel]

Hope you’re right Joker. But I’m not sure

So do I but he didn't land on the legs next to maybe should not have been put on report and the wanker in the commentary box said he should have been binned

 

[Jake the snake]

Would love Todd Payten at Parra as coach! You can see how the player love playing for him and the game tactics to go with it. Unlike our amateur

 

[lucablight]

And thats the real problem. We have been short of backs for 3 years and we sign Lume Lume. Joffa should not have been considered before we signed a winger and a 9. Fn crazy recruitment.

Dunster had a great game against Penrithbin the 2021 semi (Brad Arthur talked about it in the coaches pre match presser this week) so I think he was being earmarked as a long term option along with Russell and Sivo.

Aren't we getting Lussick .... can he play wing?

 

[Bandwagon]

Matto won't get suspended he didn't land on the cowboys players legs.

Yeaah, he did, but a long way from the worst we've seen, I don't think all that much in it.

 

[Angry_eel]

Just not our year I reckon. Too many injuries, too many suspensions this year.

He has been kissed on the dick with the players coming through Nanai goes off with an injury and a better player comes on..

 

[JokerEel]

I hope The coaches have told Brown he needs to watch every game while suspended and actually learn.

 

[Bandwagon]

Lane without Dylbro is no great loss.

 

[Gazzamatta]

Our defence is dreadful. When are we going to go all out and get a decent defensive coach?? Pissweak.

I saw BA in the sheds after the game in deep conversation with Murph. A change may be imminent.

 

[JokerEel]

It looked like he came down next to him but like you said been worse and nothing in it so I suspect 3 weeks with our luck...

 

[Incorrect]

Always hard when you lose, but the boys never gave in, kept going to the end, Cowboys at full strength and at home, with the full force of the Foxtel knob gobblers on their side , and we lost 4 tries to 3.

A bit (or a lot tbh) disingenuous there mate... 4 tries to 3 yeah ... But up to the 69th minute it was 4 tries to 1 and the game was dead...

I recall that ba and morph3 share the defensive coaching role

 

[Delboy]

24-16 loss to the form team of the comp with every player available, against a side missing 5 of their top 17, in humid conditions with a difficult referee in charge.

Mind you, the Foxtel crew agree with all you pea hearts, Sounded like the Cowgirls won by 50 and they sympathise with the owboys coach.that they did it tough. Never change Foxtel , thought it couldn’t be worse than having Alexander and Voss, it we got them tonight.

Can someone ask hindy111's dad what he thinks

f**k that ginane made me f**king sick tonight. He’s a full flog

 

[Gazzamatta]

Offa is a dumb shit too. Clearly touched the ground.

Twice.

This is basically my take on the night.

Turned fox over straight after fulltime would rather stare at Danika Patrick on the F1 broadcast.
