Rd26 Eels v Dragons GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank Stadium Aug 31st

Sivo’s best game in two years??

Sivo has been good. We just need to get more out of him consistently in the other 90 metres of the field away from the try line.

Was a handy break and pass inside from Talagi to Dylan for his step and try to start the second half.

Still think he can be a potential defensive liability that we can exploit when we play against him in the future.

Played truckloads better since previous coach left

 

[DaveMc]

Wouldn’t it be amazing to support a team that doesn’t switch off in the last 10 minutes of a game.

 

[Soto]

Lol tago and Penisini go for Rawalawa

 

[Oscarman]

Forward pass in that try.

Agreed. However that’s why it’s been such a good game from him. He has run with intent. Not jogged up like he normally does

Why isolate Sivo in this comment? We have needed to get the best out of every player all over the field, which BA wasn't able to do.

Ran out of petrol. At least we went 65mins this week, and racked up a very decent lead before hitting empty.

It’s just not good enough. We’ve lost numerous games this year on the back of just giving up the ghost with a handful of minutes to go. We’ve just conceded 30 again. It’s pathetic, and speaks volumes about how poor our conditioning is.

 

[DaveMc]

We might still lose this lol

 

[Sensei Cobra]

And despite winning they still manage to disappoint
We can’t go a game without conceding 30 points

 

[Wally21]

wow. The last 14 minutes have been f**king dreadful

 

[the phantom menace]

It'll get lost amongst all the tries etc, and the late game switching off (instead of pushing for the 50) - but the forwards all had decent games today for a change.

Hands, Reg, Lane, Ofa, Moretti all really showed what we can do when we actually fight for and win the middle and lay the foundations.

All will be there next season except Reg - question is can Junior Paulo re-join that rotation and keep up that same level of effort and output?

 

[Sensei Cobra]

absolute embarrassment

 

[the phantom menace]

We were f**king lucky in the end we'd built such a big lead!

 

[Noise]

This is fuvking embarrassing

 

[hineyrulz]

Wow!! Hopeless.

 

[the phantom menace]

Sivo's fend in his final try on St George #14 was hilarious, sent him backward into the in-goal while still standing.

 

[DaveMc]

They’re absolutely f**ked in the head. Need the best sports psychologist that’s ever existed, and to just clear out the entire f**king roster.
