Rd24: 8pm EELS v Broncos GAME DAY THREAD @ Gabba 11/8/23

[the phantom menace]

Starting to wonder if switching Gutho and Brown is the play going forward.

It would have to be I guess... we have to try something different, and our big money spine are locked in long term.

 

[Bandwagon]

WTF? Why wasn't Aurthurs offside on the Gutho no try?

 

[PARRA_FAN]

Another 3 minutes of this rubbish

 

[the phantom menace]

Nah I am talking about the quick tap Gutho took it and they didn't get back 10

Ah, I must've missed that one... my eyes are drooping and our effort has been putting me closer to sleep.

 

[IFR33K]

Geez Russell loves jamming in

 

[TheParraboy]

Only 30-10 second half..

Go back to my old post, its Sutton

 

[Happy MEel]

So who've we got coming next year?

How many top 30 spots do we have next year. We’re f**ked I reckon. Unless by some miracle we can get rid of a Paulo or Matto, we’ve essentially got the same squad.

 

[the phantom menace]

The way our squad has played this year, they and our coach deserved to get beat by this margin when (apparently) our "season was on the line" - even though it truly sailed a month ago. The last round bye wasn't going to the saviour that we needed.

 

[PARRA_FAN]

If BA thinks Offa is a prop forward then Davey is a right centre.

 

[Cumberland Eel]

Fair play Browns been the best of very, very shit bunch

 

[T-Boon]

The last 5 times we've played in the white jersey we've lost by 50 or more.

 

[Gary Gutful]

Plop city. BA needs to go and take most of the team with him.

 

[JokerEel]

Brown needs to play fullback in attack ffa

 

[Chipmunk]

The reality is this year had one of those seasons written all over from the time Matterson decided to keep $4k in his pocket instead of doing his job.

I said after Week 2 of the season, the entire season was going to be a waste of time, it was just going to take 6 months longer for us not to make the Top 8.

I don't think tonight's result was ever really in question, and I'm not even surprised by the scoreline given the circumstances throughout the game. For whatever reason we gave up far too easy tonight. The scoreline is a disgrace, but really it has been coming for a while now.

For whatever reason there are some unmotivated and disinterested players in this team at present. Hardly anyone really wants to do the hard stuff when it gets too hard.

There needs to be changes, the coaching staff has reached their use by date with this playing group. Either the coach needs to go or the players. The reality is, it's easier to get a new coach than a heap of new players.

 

[Jake the snake]

Simmonson running backwards or sidewards

 

[JokerEel]

Moretti to second row as Davey is out for 14 days

 

[the phantom menace]

Maybe the future next season is:

1. Russell
4. Brown/Gutherson
6. Gutherson/Brown
7. Moses

He's a bit too well paid now, but Arthur always had a fetish about trying Brown as a centre.

 

[Jake the snake]

Moretti to second row as Davey is out for 14 days

No no he will put ASI in there

 

[PARRA_FAN]

Moretti to second row as Davey is out for 14 days

He deserves more game time, his runs has been more effective than others.
