Rd8: 8pm EELS v Broncos GAME DAY THREAD @ TIO Stadium - Darwin 21/4/23

[EelsFan05]

Stop going left FFS. Moses is twice the player Drown is and yet Drown gets all the good ball.

They are trying to isolate Reynolds against Lane, and failing miserably.

 

[Jake the snake]

Agree. They look like a side that's bored and had enough. They use the same attacking plays over and over again. It's garbage.

Anyhows only 2.5yrs left for BA. 2026 isnt that far away Jake.

Let’s give the dope another 3 year extension

But but but we beat the Tigers and the Shit Dogs they said. Masterclsss coaching BA ya flat track bully

Lol. The hungers bought the grand final tickets and waved their flags. We are f**kn hopeless. Honestly Hodgson isn't NRL level. He can't t a ckle lol

 

[Sensei Cobra]

On the balance of what we have seen so far this year this performance is likely true to form and we are miles off the top teams

last year certainly seem like a fluke

 

[StEely Matt]

Did the coach treat this like any other game and let the boys make their own way to the game?

 

[Eel2reel]

SuperCoach

Absolutely tired of it. He IS what many suspect.... an absolute deadset one dimensional deadbeat dickhead, despite an accidental grandfinal defeat.

 

[Happy MEel]

They are trying to isolate Reynolds against Lane, and failing miserably.

Hodgson is so f**king slow passing from the ruck their whole defensive edge has enough time to slide and cover them. Regardless, we need to attack down our right at least 60% of the time.

 

[hindy111]

Hodgson got outplayed by Billy Walters who couldn’t get a game at the Tigers, our recruitment really needs a shake up. Some bad misjudgements prior to this season.

Hodgsons f**ked. End of story. Hands who is barely NRL level is killing him. Hodgson is missing tackles that lead to tries every game. How the f**k BA is still picking him? What a f**kwit. He arm grabs. f**k him off

Well they only trained once so it’s entirely possible.

 

[hineyrulz]

Lose the Collisions with no plan B, must be fatigued. Plus a lack of resources and no luck. Plus climate change any other excuses we need to add??

Hodgson needs a trip to the glue factory ASAP. He can take the bald fraud with him.

 

[Avenger]

I’m in Bali and this shit show is f**king up my goddam holiday

I’d rather go to Rooty Hill RSL than Bali. f**k that place.

 

[Sensei Cobra]

Hmm wonder what BA’s message will be at half time

 

[TheCrowe]

Hodgson slow confused and predictable.
I wanted him to work out but it's over.

Yep BA is a f**kwit for continually trying to justify a terrible decision at the expense of our season. Geez, there needs to be a serious review of our recruitment for this season. Heads really do need to roll.

We had our answer last week. If we must persist with the slow useless old merkin, it can only be for a maximum of 20 minutes.

 

[strider]

We need a massive clean out. Every forward except the starting side need to be shown the door.

Thats not a cleanout. Thats just getting rid of your shittier players

 

[hindy111]

If we can somehow harness the art of chasing that collision.

Remember we gave this bloke not one, not two but three years. Must of been cheap uno. We are so lucky.

 

[Tooooks]

Maybe we should’ve let Brown go, played Gutho in the halves and made a play for RTS or even Walsh.

Hodgson can’t start again. He’s worse than Rein . We have no good bench middles. Just look at Penrith’s bench for real impact.

Shit defence year after year after year. So let’s buy…an attacking coach.

I agree we need a bit of a cleanout. If we persist with Hodgson and these outside backs, we miss the 8. Probably will anyway.

 

[hindy111]

Yep BA is a f**kwit for trying to justify a terrible decision at the expense of our season.

He misses easy tackles in the guts every week on the 4th or 5th tackle. Not even trick plays. I can handle a good set move but just a dude running up the guts and he falls right off.

Bad signing and f**k him off. Oh he is experienced? 400k for that garbage

 

[PARRA_FAN]

Baring some turn around in the second half, you can tell its not their night. Cartwright drops in the second set of six. Russell drops a bomb from Reynolds. The bounce of the ball goes the other way, typically against Parra. They need to fix these away trips of home away from Commbank games.

 

[JokerEel]

On the right but we seem to think Drown is our biggest attacking weapon. This is despite Moses having one of the highest number of try assists last year in the comp.

Seriously, our coaching staff have no idea, our players have no idea. It’s a complete shit show.

Broncos right hand side have Cobbo and Staggs so let's attack them....
