Round 8 v Eels

[mxlegend99]

Moylan is deadset terrible at reading opposition kicks... huge flaw for a fullback. Our halves read it better

You're right. This season Cleary has been doing most of the cleanup work at the back when the opposition are in our 20.

 

[The Teach]

1 and a half games without scoring a try...we suck and season 2017 is officially gone

 

[Caged Panther]

F**k me what is wrong with this side.

Whether Griffin is responsible for it or not it's his job to fix it and at the moment we seem to be going backwards.

To call us shit is an understatement, even if were to come back (and it's hard to see that happening) it would only paper over massive issues.

 

[mxlegend99]

Well we havent scored a try in over 120 minutes of football.

Yet some on here think we wwre stupid for taking the 2 to increase a lead to 6 (or take a lead by 2 etc.)... as if we would somehow score a try off that set when there have been 50 or so sets the last 2 weeks we havent scored off. Take the 2 games against opposition who didnt show up away... and we are by far the worst team in the competition. Defensively and in attack. Even with those games we nearly are.

On the bright side Blake is playing centre and it has improved our defence a bit. But our attacking opportunities are pretty limited when we cant complete a set.

That was even worse than I'd imagined it could be

 

[Devilous]

It's like each week we get worse and worse! I thought teams were meant to get better as a season moves along.....

 

[abpanther]

I can't get over how bad we look, not what I expected at all this season

 

[The Teach]

Seriously couldn't score ina brothel right now...pathetic.

 

[Palms]

Is Merrin the worst player in the comp at the moment? What has he done to deserve a rest? 3 hitups?

 

[mxlegend99]

Your imagination sucks then. I imagined worse.

Hiku was fine.
Cartwright defensively waa fine.

I pictured both being carved up. Moylan positioning was about as bad as i imagined. Its like he knows hes a half and has stopped focusing on his fullback duties.

Also whare is now the weak defensive centre in our lineup. He was our best 2 years back.

 

[mxlegend99]

Moylan again non existent on the back of a kick and linebreak.

 

[Copperhead]

5 minutes before and after half time. Every match is getting away from us through lack of concentration.

 

[Rhyno]

can l get a woot woot?

 

[tripster]

I am starting to think that Moylan is a bit of a one trick pony in attack. The one trick being to spread it on the last and hope for the best.

 

[Rhyno]

refs finally score

 

[billypilgrimnz]

Cartwright will be lucky to have Feleti Mateo's career if (a) he isn't allowed to own a position and get good at it, and (b) he doesn't show of an interest in getting better. Making him a lame duck 6 is going to ruin him.

 

[Rhyno]

mateo sh!ts all over cartwright

 

[mxlegend99]

mateo sh!ts all over cartwright

Your mum wishes she copped a load in the mouth

 

[PenrithPanther45]

That last 5 minutes really proved that we need to force more drop outs, it's that simple, we are not building pressure whatsoever. To not beat an Eels side whose ball handling was awful is really bad. Another soft try conceded in the 2nd half broke us again.
