Rd25: EELS v Roosters GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank 18/8/23

[Parra Pride]

Bought them all ice cream after the game.

I want to say I hope it was some of that choc mint garbage, but they don't even deserve that much.

 

[oldmancraigy]

So who’s a better hooker out of Ray Stone and Lussick?

Lussick can at least pick it up off the ground from dummy half

 

[Avenger]

Tackle efficiency stats are in!

Hang your heads in shame Sivo and Gutho... and Simonssen and Russell.

But credit to Hands, Greig, Reg, Matterson and Hopgood in defence.

No other coach would put up with Sivo and his lack of go forward, except BA.

Let alone extend the merkin

I am shocked Robbo defended sivo in the presser for his high tackle on slippery slope Tedesco.

Normally he whinges when anyone lays a finger on Teddy.

 

[IFR33K]

It’s offical. We’re shit

 

[Twizzle]

well that was shit, again, its groundhog day, again

The thing is, Baldy makes a deadset penis of himself by saying the effort was there and we’ll continue fighting. We rolled over and played dead for 60 minutes of an 80 minute football game.

Ryan Matterson also known as Catto.

Deserves a roasting for the season. He didn't repay us for missing 3 games at the start of the year that in the washup has cost us a finals spot. 1/2 wins there and we are playing finals.

He also hasn't delivered on his paycheck and if the club are serious I would wanting his contract moved to another club next season.

We were in the top 8 a few weeks ago...

Frankly it is the team resilience as a whole which has been poor. Any setback used as an excuse to cave in

 

[PARRA_FAN]

Whats with their attitude, they go ok for 20 minutes then after one error their heads go completely down. Pathetic

Probably points to a larger issue

 

[Tiger5150]

Yes, being a Tigers fan @Tiger5150

Not sure about that....you merkins have expectations

 

[hineyrulz]

Not while Bea Arthur is in charge.

 

[JokerEel]

Can someone explain why last night BA stupidly kept Brown locked up on the right edge in attack...

Like everything else in the joint, a complete lack of tactical nous and attention to detail.

Yep. Effort doesn’t result in 57 missed tackles. Don’t know if that’s the most in the comp this year but surely it’s close.

I blame Gutho shaving his head and trying to look Bald like BA.

Our resilience since that haircut has been non existent.

I endorse this theory.

He was playing the Moses role.

 

[JokerEel]

He was playing the Moses role.

f**k me you reply with the most obvious answer...

Why he isn't Moses... last night was perfect opportunity to try him on both sides...
