Rd8: Eels v Cowboys GAME DAY THREAD in Darwin 30/4/22

[hindy111]

You tip us to finish in a different spot every week. The only difference between you and TheRam is I usually finish reading your posts.

My official review was 10th I adjust weekly power rankings and will be doing one after rounds done. We will fall.

Anyhows I have cleary stated that we have extended the wrong men and for far to long. 4yr deals shouldn't be handed out unless it's a guy who is a special talent and not to old.
Gutherson is not a special talent. Rcg and Jnr are old beat up props. Watch what they deliver in 2025 and 2026.

No, Penrith's and Melbourne's was awesome last year. Ours was just good. You're too dumb to play this game Suity. Don't try and be a hero now that every idiot is piling on. Us losing doesn't prove any point you've previously made. It certainly doesn't disprove any of mine. Disappointing losses are a fact of life. How do you think the Storm feel when we beat them?

Sure. By 1 point in extra time. They would feel ok considering they had H.Grant and a few others to come back.
We got smacked 35-4 against a side not tipped to play finals. If they di then credit to the coaching staff for taking that squad to the top 8.

So who gets the praise when we beat Melbourne? I'm tipping it's someone else.

Are you missing the point?
We know we can get up for big games occasionally but we are unable to do it consistently. We rarely go on long winning streaks. So come finals it's possible if we are there to win a game. But BA does have enough to get them up for 3 or 4 big games in a row.
Come to think of it we struggle to get the side primed against shit sides.

My tip? We come out and give the Panthers a red hot go... Followed by a few more losses.

I said it earlier in year. We had to blow it up amd start again. Brian Smith always knew when the teams was done. We would rebuild for a year and then come back with a new competitive side.
Currently we are holding on to something I don't feel will ever work cause we are worried about dropping out of the top 8.
In American sports youl notice NFL amd NBA sides constantly blow it up. They will struggle for a few years and then march on and have a crack.

Once MAHONEY walked it was time to pull the pin and start planning for 2025

 

[hindy111]

Definitely. We were very predictable and slow and far too sideways.

Bone on Bones review?

Was going to head up to Darwin. Thank f**k I didn't.

Seafood on Cullens?

The carry on I’ve seen tonight on social media from some of our “fans” is beyond pathetic.

The eels had to turn comments off on their posts because morons were telling JA he should self harm.

Other posts saying they hope he tears his ACL at training.

Never been more embarrassed by our so called fan base

What sort of f**king loser gets that worked up about their football team that they would write shit like that?

Disgraceful.

 

[hindy111]

Last night was not JA fault. Ridiculous to suggest he was. I also feel a top 30 spot for a 19yld should be for special talents. This he is not. Jersey flegg is his level.

Gutherson who took us to the cleaners has been gash most the season. Moses was also garbage and our two props didn't do a lot. Along with Mahoney but he isn't on those $$$ close to the mill mark. I can forgive him.
Guys getting the huge bucks can't afford to be ever having poor performances. I'd allow maybe 2/24 games at passable. Otherwise not worth what cost.

Anyhows we roll on. Let's go end the Panthers win streak

It's the same when fans say things like I hope Mahoney does his shoulder with a minute to go in grand final. Dumb.

Anyhows. I'm sick of hearing about JA. I also think father amd sons a lotnof time shouldn't work together. I'd tell my Dad to get f**ked all the time if did.

 

[Gary Gutful]

There is far too much of a gap between our best and our worst. Not sure what we were trying to do last night but the side to side shit doesn't work.

Wouldn't surprise me if we turned around at beat Penrith next week and then played shit again the week after.

You copied what I said.

Cheer up everyone, you can always make sausage rolls. Even if you don't have pastry.

Obviously short term supporters cause we die-hards have seen it all before and will see it again particularly these past 9 seasons and probably 1 or 2 more after this at least. We need change and I dont mean consultants who seem to have disappeared overnight. We need to start with our D. Our defence needs to be totally broken down and start again. Just like Penrith, The Cows and Sharks did. BAs words, if in fact there are any, are falling on deaf ears. The players are bored.
And for BA to say "everybody is coming after us" when we have achieved SFA probably says a lot. I think he is lost and I reckon he dosent accept help the way he should. Maybe Im wrong but he appears to be unable to ever reside over consistent performances. More effort! Try harder! His presser last night said so much without saying much at all. I note Robinsons Presser had him totally taking responsibility for their form.
Anyway miracles happen and Ill always support the B&G no matter whos playing or whos drinking all the water in the coaches box.

@Gazzamatta , both consultants still involved as much as they have been all year.

Excellent detective work. Ta mate.

Now get onto that seafood joint that's putting people in hospital.

Just to add mate, Mary doesnt normally sit in coaches box, however he did earlier in the year on occasion so don't use his appearance there (or lack of) as a measure of his involvement.

Thanks and fair enough but maybe he should?

And see if they have a strudel guy to make dessert

We've only had one coach since 86 that arguably has if you ignore finals chokes.
