Rnd 4 vs Sharks Game Day Thread

De Gois can't get back soon enough...

I don't think De Gois returning is going to suddenly turn us into one of the Top teams.

F**k off idiot
That was directed at our troll Fanbase

bahahaha, last week eels were awful against massively under strength titts team, this week eels offered nothing, looked unorganised and no ideas. Eel's in trouble mark my works idiots.

Of all the stupid, insipid, poorly spoken, barely literate, improperly chromosomal, pre-simian trolls we've had.....you rank about seventh

Really don't think Kaysa was that bad. Hookers are always going to miss a few in the middle due to their size. And he stopped plenty of their big men!! The only error I can recall was from the scrum late in the second half.

A few times tonight, there wasn't really a runner ready putting a lot of pressure on Kaysa to make the right decision.

Tonight came down to ball control, and not sure another hooker will automatically fix that.

Ummmm missed 7 tackles, threw two forward passes and his service was rubbish. Let alone his handling errors, he was dreadful, and then Brown replaces him lol. BA really has to look at our bench options because Brown shouldn't be allowed near dummy half again.

Yes, we are the idiots.

Anyhow we have some luck next week, Hodgson may be out:

And if they aren't allowed to replace him and run out with 12 we might have a chance.

Hopefully King is fit....we haven't got great options but he's a far better attacking player than Kaysa. Have a bench hooker if needed but the 9 jersey is quickly becoming as big a problem as many of us predicted pre season

4 errors.

He made 47 tackles, and plays in the middle, he will miss tackles.

We made more metres then them, and don't reckon they won the ruck thus Pritchard did pretty good defensively!'

Don't recall the second forward pass, but was one of them from dummy half from Norman?? Not 100%.

Sums you up pretty well. f**k you are a moron.

Talking of missed tackles reckon Gutherson was massive in defence tonight.

7 missed tackles is high for any player, particularly someone in the middle where one-on-one tackles are less likely.

 

[Chipmunk]

Interestingly we made more metres and missed less tackles then the Sharks. Also got more penalties!!

Gee if only we could complete our sets !!

We made alot less metres when it mattered, like inside their 20 (in fact I think we went backwards) and missed alot more tackles inside our 20 compared to them.

We had our chances in the first half but we never looked likely until we arsed a try just before half time.

Bird missed 6 tonight, Maloney 7 and Townsend 5.........

They are halves, not your dummy half who should lead the line speed and be solid in the middle.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

They are halves, not your dummy half who should lead the line speed and be solid in the middle.

I understand they are halves, but you don't make 47 tackles if you are not solid in the middle / leading in defence. And obviously it's subjective but I am pretty sure he took on their big men a few times and put them down.

 

[forward pass]

That was a woeful performance - just woeful. Had French scored from the Gutho break things might have been different but that was the story of the game for us. Nothing went for us.

Whenever we kick out on the full from a restart you know we are off our game. We always do that on our bad days.

Interesting to see what we deliver over the next two weeks with two trips away against the Raiders and Warriors.

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

So it seems we have 5 away games from the first 6 matches?

Ha. We have not beaten Canberra down there in 10 f**king years and they are coming off a loss too.

We will get pumped.
