Souths are Back

[parra pete]

Back to the drawing board!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Mick Vella's best game for three seasons...Maybe I've been wrong about him????

 

[Twizzle]

Souths were in the game for most of it.

I didn't think they were that bad.

 

[half]

vella also played well a couple of weeks ago. soon he will be doing this every week. just you guys wait and see

souths were good. macdougall is still a quality player and adds a lot of determination to the team

Hmmm beginning of the end for the Wabbits :?:

Seems Fletcher/Peters got injured and for the most part McDrugall didn't go looking for the ball.

Great effort by Parramatta to step up and finish off the game like that

As for Hayne, WTF is he trying to be a William Harrigan wannabe with a penalty for being offside from the kick off :shock:

Whinger.

If you are in front of the kicker, its a penalty.
What was he supposed to do??????????????

Have a go at Dykes, not the referee.

Suity

I don't care what anyone says about our opposition today, I rate them very highly and still do. These blokes we played today stretched the Roosters to the death, beat the Tigers and smashed the sharks. They have a well balanced squad with some very skillful individuals.

We beat them and beat them quite well even though the score didn't reflect what actually happened, however they did get all the 50/50 calls!! so I for one won't be devaluing [if there's such a word] our win because some bloke reckons Souths should go back to the drawing board.

 

[Glenn]

Not whinging, just annoyed at the inconsistancy at its best. So out of all the games this year, that is the first time some one has been offside from a kick off :?:

 

[Hurriflatch]

Eelavation: With due respect it aint that hard to smash the Sharks these days.

 

[Ron Jeremy]

Souths where lucky we didn't put 50 on the them IMO.

 

[Phillips]

i thought Vella played shit...as always #-o

 

[Glenn]

Micky V played very well today, running the ball at the defensive line and some nice hits in defence (in particualr one about half way through the 2nd half)

 

[Hurriflatch]

Vella had his best game of the year but really that isn't saying much

at least he is improving though but as far as that game goes compared to what Vella CAN do it was average at best but compared to what Vellas has been doing for more then a year maybe even as much as 2 years that was a very good game.

 

[parra-matters]

Souths are back, thats the best 70mins they have played pity the game goes for 80.
Vella 15 hitups for 150+metres is a good game for him.

 

[Ron Jeremy]

Vella is a legend....that's 3 good games from him so far this year...he's one of our consistent forwards.

 

[Phillips]

everytime Vella plays i feel like kicking my dog #-o

 

[parra pete]

everytime Vella plays i feel like kicking my dog #-o

Its a wonder she stays with you??? :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

[Hollywood Jesus]

Don't sya that Ron. You see, people are gonna whinge no matter what. Micky V could run for 200+ and they would still bag him because Wags didn't pass the ball and because Petersen should be on the wing.

First off allow me to say that I do actually rate the Rabbitohs. They have determination and players like both the MacDougall brothers and Fletcher are very good. And personally I think Harrison is great as well.

However, the flaw in your argument (IMHO) goes as follows:

* V Roosters - yes, they took the Roosters to the limit. However, the Roosters were not their usual selves that game. Of course they won and of course everyone has a bad day; however I think the poor form of the Roosters mixed the decent form of the Rabbitohs may have painted a different picture

* V Tigers - whilst this game was a good game of footy, it was tarnished by a very questionable instance during which South Sydney were no doubt handed the momentum in the closing stages of the clash which - surely, inevitably - lead them to victory. Had they beaten the Tigers without this incident rearing its head, the issue would not be so great.

* V Cronulla - next to the Warriors, the Sharks this season are very difficult to watch; they are both either in woeful form or just suffering mild lapses of form. Either way, Cronulla has not looked all too convincing in ay match they have played this year and are not seeming very good thus far.

Whilst taking away nothing from the Rabbitohs, they have not yet (until today and after round 1) faced quality opposition week in and week out. Granted, our team seems to struggle as much as the next. However, playing bruisng and fast paced matches in four consecutive weeks against quality top 8 teams is a different kettle of fish than playing teams like the Tigers and Cronulla who, quite frankly, have struggled this season.

And I must say I agree - all the 50/50 calls apparently went to Souths. I was far from impressed with the referee's display, though I have seen worse.

 

[izzo]

A few questionable decisions put the rabbits into the grave but its their own fault in someways we let in some soft tries although some tries shouldnt have happend in the first place , shayne hayne ruins the party once again.

Seems like you are the only person in here whinging today, HJ. No one is bagging Vella, so put away your defensive lipstick for a while, yeah?
