Rd5: LIVE game day thread EELS v Panthers

[Eelementary]

Haven’t done anything special in attack, just working though their sets. If they start getting it out to their backs I’m worried.

Well, they haven't really had to...yet.

Alvaro is the worst forward ever

I told you all 3 yrs ago he was a powder puff. Sorry but he just isnt a first grader ffs.
Handy benchy when injuries. Him and Manmah starting a suicide yet Ba continues with it. Panthers made few adjustments in defense and we cant seem to do the same.

Can’t blame the forwards today they have been going okay and aiming up against a good pack.

We have had plenty of good ball in decent positions but just our general attack is horrid. We seriously just don’t look like we know what we are doing within the 30 of the tryline.

We need to get deeper near their tryline, like they are near ours.

Yeh exactly

We got dis

Notice Pou has been MIA, coming up with all the excuses he can for the clueless coach and rabble of a club.

LOL at praising commitment and effort,professional athletes are meant to put in effort,it's not something that deserves praise,all that matters is wins or losses.

Look, you're right - they should be better.

But the squad we have just isn't very good, to be frank.

We over-achieved massively in 2017.

At least we are losing because we are trying hard, but are not good enough.

Much easier to stomach than if they didn't try at all.

They also haven't necessarily had the opportunity. Despite what the moaning brigade think our defence has been brutal (and so has theirs). It's a heavily defence oriented and intense game thus far. Hopefully we can come home strong with slobs like Leota tiring.

We'll see

But but but he has good stats.

I’ve preaching this for ages we have powder puff forwards

Yep, our shape is terrible. So flat. I wonder if that is how they train? Because they have had that shape most of the year.

 

[Parra Pride]

How is it that we have the only winger in the competition who can't catch a pass and fall over the try line?

Our good winger is busy gallivanting around France.

If you ask Pou there's nothing wrong. Stay the course merkins!

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Norman and Moses look confused.

I don't get it.

They don't either

 

[hineyrulz]

Pou never posts during games

Only when we are losing.

 

[Lemon Squash]

Starting T-Rex has flopped, he doesn’t like to run it hard against the big players when they aren’t hunched over sucking in the big ones.

 

[hindy111]

90% of this forum needs a Bex...
We could have 2-3 tries. If Hoffman catches that first one we probably do have 2-3 tries.

It's always amazing how the bounce of the ball goes against you when confidence is down

How many could they of had? If george didnt touch ball or Maloney bump into Tamou. Physcialy gettn slapped around .

 

[Eelementary]

Why are our forwards copping the criticism here?

Once again, we have had plenty of possession in good field position, and Moses and Norman have delivered nothing...

If Dis is Aids Yes we got Dis.

I will have a big fat i told you so ready for you at the end of the game whiney
