Rnd 1 2020 Eels v Dogs BankWest Stadium - Game Day Thread

[Happy MEel]

That'll come with age and confidence. The kid's a good footballer.

No arguments here.

 

[Avenger]

Yeah but your tatts arent as good

Seriously what the f**k is it with that nursery rhyme across his chest?

What a bogan.

 

[BlueAndGoldPride]

I would rather a win like that in rnd 1 then a 50-0 win, our D looked good and organised. Handling and attack will come but that D is what we missed last year

So strong after contact

Lol Nrown is getting hate and Gutho praise....Gutho had an absolute f**king mare

Good thing he's got the motor to stay in the game and involved so often that he can still pull off a couple of good plays in an abject shocker.

 

[Gronk]

Good game.

 

[strider]

Interesting, no hangeronerers in the sheds after the game ..... keep those diseased merkins away

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Just looking at Nathan Brown’s rig I can say I have a better one. And he get the Channel 9 MOM. f**k me.

Do you remember Gorden Tallis at his peak? Built like a pear with an avocado stuck on top.

 

[Jake the snake]

Well that was so shit. Same shit dished out in Bega. Best thing was the two points

 

[Happy MEel]

The other thing that pleased me was for the first time in close to a decade we had a kick chase. We’ve finally realised that a midfield bomb is only effective if there’s someone there to put pressure on the catcher.

Yeah nah

On the whole our defence was very good.

Granted the Dogs are an awful attacking side so that's not a great claim to fame....but you've gotta start somewhere.

Plenty of Eels games like that have gone against us with a dicky try somewhere

 

[Bazal]

Yeah nah

He made the most errors on the field, shit captains challenge, awful decision to take the missed penalty and concede big metres, one or two absolutely appalling kicks, almost took a quick tap on our own fking goal line and was save from stupidity by the ref....

He had a shocker on balance. It happens.

 

[Happy MEel]

f**k me. Reed Mahoney made 44 tackles for 0 misses and scored a try. He was outstanding tonight.

He is without a doubt an 80 minute hooker and we should even consider a bench spot to receive him. My concern is that if he goes down for any length of time we’re f**ked

He also ran for 183m and was probably our most likely in attack. Was he perfect, no. Did he have a “mare”? Absolutely not.

Disagree. He had a shocker and was probably our dumbest player tonight.

But like I said, it's good that he can have a shocker but still have the ticker to stay involved and come up with some good plays even in a shit game.

You are off your rocker if you think he had a shocker

Fair enough, but I think you’re on your pat malone on that one.

 

[Bazal]

He made so many dumb errors I'm not sure what else you could call it tbh.

Would anyone be disagreeing if the Dogs had scored off his penalty mare in the in goal and won the game? Doubtful.

I love the bloke but seriously he had a bad game by most standards, let alone his own.

 

[Bazal]

Well, amongst Eels fans at least.

He caused us all much mirth in the game thread
