Rd3: Parra v Dogs GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank Stadium 23/3/25

[Cumberland Eel]

FMD Lomax 30 runs for 291m and 8 TBs plus all the kicks he contested - Herculean effort.

 

[Timana]

An improvement, we certainly had our chances.

Poor errors and soft defence in the first half very costly in the end.

If Brown was a better player we probably win.

I dont think so. Dogs didnt really take many chances and played safety. If we versed an attacking team, we would've been killed again.

 

[Cumberland Eel]

If I was sober I’d offer to drive tonight.

Keep your cleavage covered Stevie!!

 

[Joshuatheeel]

He has to start with Smith now.

Papali 14

Na....Lussick/Smith was a good combo. They basically played similar mins Lussick approx 45 ( 27 tackles at 90%, 2 runs 36 m, 3 TB) Smith 35 mins (29 tackles at 88%, 2 runs 23m, 1 TB).....

They did good together

 

[Timana]

Tried his ringer out as always but had a few bonehead plays.

Yeah. He has to concentrate and not make those crucial errors and sometimes he gets in the road.

 

[Cumberland Eel]

Didn't even push, he just stood there and watched Crichton run at him. He knew what was going to happen, Crichton knew what was going to happen but he just stood there and let it happen.

Quite poetic for our season tbh

 

[Stevie]

Improved performance from our boys

That sort of defensive effort and Mitch's kicking game will trouble plenty of sides

I agree mate. Add Moses into that game we win easily.

We really are a strike forward or two and strike back short of being a good side.

 

[Timana]

Gee I wish we went after Xerri when he was just coming back

 

[Joshuatheeel]

FMD Lomax 30 runs for 291m and 8 TBs plus all the kicks he contested - Herculean effort.

Crap, he missed 2 goals ...

 

[Gronk]

I you wanted improvement, then you got it.

Hawkins was great. The hookers brought energy.

Better completion rate and we can maybe look at winning a game.

Dylan needs counselling.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

very happy with that effort and improvement, the key is to build on it.

 

[dazeely]

Kautoga 27m. Lane not much better.

Brown MIA again. Disgraceful

 

[Timana]

ithink our go forward is still so so

 

[hineyrulz]

Can’t believe the Lomax performance.

Then you have the disgrace that is Dylan Brown. Went MIA again

Just think that Brown will be on double Lomax next year lol.

 

[Jake the snake]

Hawkins to 6 when. Moses is back. Surely

 

[84 Baby]

That second half is mostly how I hoped we’d play this season. We couldn’t do much attacking, but effort and intent and brutality in defence was NRL standard finally

 

[Jake the snake]

Honestly think Penisini needs to go back to his position on the other side to partner Lomax. They’d be a a great Combo

 

[Pazza]

Simonson and ado carr on the left

 

[PARRA_FAN]

Well much happier with their effort in defence. Attack not so much.

 

[Suitman]

Disappointing loss.
The shite fight that the club was left in by BA isn't going to change overnight.
Today, although I'm so pissed that we lost, shows that there is some hope.
In JR we should trust.
I feel for Zac. He worked so hard. Iongi has been a great decision to replace Gutho.
We'll move forward, and it will happen.
I'm sick of having to continually being patient, but my positivity keeps me alive.
Today was an actually good day, despite the loss. It proved that we aren't actually down and out yet.
That performance gave me hope.
Glass half full.
