Round 22 v Bulldogs: Game Day Thread

[Jake the snake]

Great win considering the conditions. Crucial two points. And it's always great beating the scum dogs

Good solid win. Did the basics right, excellent kicking game just really the conditions weren't conducive to big scores. Build pressure like that in the dry and we score six tries or more.

Forwards again excellent, Alvaro particularly had a stormed as did Vave and Kenny.

The pub in SA certainly understand why I have Fox having been subject to Hadley.... Urgh

Terepo played well also for 2nd game back. 7 runs for 79 meters all hit ups 20+ tackles.

Alvaro is pumping those legs. I was wrong about his game. You where right. Get him a short pass and an offload and he will take game to another level.

When Brown hits up he should always have someone beside him. Few times he hit up alone and defemse knew couldnt pass.

I reckon he is top 5 forwards in game.

f**k Reynolds is a dumb player... Every stupid thing he does completely undoes 3 or 4 good things he can do...

But without him they would score 0 points a game.

 

[hindy111]

The Dogs are junk. Seriously I have never seen them worse then now.

I have..... They atleast put in. If did give up theyd be on the end of a few 50 point thrashings. They still compete for 80 mins. Good attitude.

 

[Basil Brush]

But without him they would score 0 points a game.

Reynolds and Kasiano are their best players and they are losing both of them.

 

[hindy111]

We slacked off in 2nd half but we had a tough game against tigers and 5 game turn around and a tougher game against Brisbane.
We needed a game where could cruise for 40 mins.

 

[hindy111]

I also preffer how we grinded in 2nd half then play silly and try and blow them away.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Six straight wins! Woohoo! Hard to believe we've never done that before.

 

[hindy111]

Having Terepo and Frank out for so long might have them fresh for the last month.

 

[Dibs]

So when have you seen them worse?

 

[T.S Quint]

Six straight wins! Woohoo! Hard to believe we've never done that before.

Come on, that can't be right.
I'm pretty sure we had six wins in one week in 2009.

BA was saying that was 3 games in 12 days. So that win against the scumdogs was a great performance imo

 

[Eelpout]

Clinical in many respects including our kicking game. We are peaking at the perfect time.

 

[PARRA_FAN]

I'm happy with that win. Not just cause it's against Canterbury but they're the sort of games we struggled to win in the past in heavy conditions. We need those grinding games leading into the finals. We only conceded the one try which is hardly a surprise considering the Dogs attack is woeful but our defense always looks committed.

Keep it up boys.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Apart from that one week I mean.

Actually I would be curious if anyone knows when we did last win six straight, 2009 aside?

2005 - rounds 9 - 15.

FMD, we did it in '86 you merkin.

 

[forward pass]

Yeah we have for sure. I recall we were on a massive winning run once and it was finished by the Steelers at Parra. McGregor scored a try - I still remember it. Might have been 10 or 11 in a row.

 

[T.S Quint]

And if we are still not counting 2009:

The last time we won 7 straight games was 2001.
We actually won 10 in a row from round 19 up until the Preliminary Final.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Twice in 12 years. Seems like it's worth a beer or two.
