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

[Jake the snake]

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...

Don’t try to reason with the baboon. He will twist the subject introduce some stats and the next thing you know you’ll be talking about some other random subject.

 

[Happy MEel]

When your coach’s whole mantra is front load your efforts and chase the collision, that’s exactly what you do. The problem is that if you execute that plan, it’s to the detriment of the rest of the game.

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

It usually ends with him arguing in favour of the point that he started arguing against, and using that as proof that the point against is rightly wrong

Yeah get away from the structure we’ve trained in all year ffs

Working well

Working well

Our attack is fine. It’s our defence that is the problem.

Our attack is fine. It’s our defence that is the problem.

Since origin we’ve only averaged 15 points a game. Our attack has certainly become a problem to go along with our even bigger problem, which is our defence.

Since Origin we’ve had significant player availability issues. Look at the whole season. We’ve scored heaps of tries.

 

[the phantom menace]

For and against... now -1. Not good enough, end of.

Haha!
That's exactly what he does!!
I think it's called trolling.

Where do we rank on tries scored per game?

We're still third or fourth on points for, so it'd have to be around that.

I reckon our decline in defence since then hasn't helped our attack a whole lot either.

 

[Gazzamatta]

I noted early last night Barlow was rarely sighted. No hit ups and no tackles. He appeared to be on the right edge. As soon as he started to get involved, he was replaced then back again shortly after. What did it actually achieve replacing a player who had done little work.

You're pretty wise for an old man Craigy!

We are 8th for average points per game. That hardly suggests our attack is good.

We're 8th on tries per game, but the margin to 4th is 0.2/game, so like 1 try every five games.

Our last coupla weeks of absolute shitness is more than the difference there.

Yea but the OP talked about how our attack is also not good enough. Have to include the whole season. We can’t just take out the last couple weeks, otherwise take out the weeks where we scored 40.

Our attack is middle of the road and getting worse, while our defence is cellar dwelling and also getting worse.

Our attack is garbage against the good sides, like it has been for a decade.
