Official Round 16: Bulldogs Vs Sharks - Game Day Thread

[The DoggFather]

nah play them to show the assistant that they should of played much earlier.

He is a lost ****, as if he would of picked them anyways.

 

[XR6T]

All the for and against lost last week by the Nulla, they will balance it out today and add some to their "for"...

 

[djdeep4172]

Don't worry we've got reinforcements (checks notes) tyrone may and Matt lodge coming next year
....

The fact these two are in discussion with our club and Gould is overseeing this they can both piss off

 

[D0GMATIC]

Like they would have held onto the ball.

Most teams get to play till the siren

 

[B-Train]

He wont drop him, he wont even drop Perham. I hope I'm wrong though.

I think Perham is gone, from fullback anyway, if he got hooked mid first half. Hopefully Wilson gets a chance after the bye. He can't do any worse

 

[CBDoggies]

It is going to take time to fix, and CC himself is a first year coach. He is going to learn stuff, but he needs to be given time to do so. Gould knows what good coaching looks like, and he also knows that it takes time to learn stuff. Plus our squad has been missing Thompson all season, Kikau almost all season, TPJ for the first 10 rounds or so, and key players for decent chunks of the season. We don't have depth of middle forwards, and there aren't too many options out there to fix this easily.

A lot that isn't going well, but we've been down the "sack em all and start again" route 3 times in the last 6 years, it hasn't worked. Got to stay the distance this time.

Sorry I don’t agree with a lot of what you said, yea we are missing players etc but we also won games without them. We are looking worse as the year progresses with some of the injured players back. And please we let go 2 top 30 players for what? There’s plenty of big bodies out there who can dish out better work rate than what we have. It’s like they don’t wana spend money on any players when it’s clear we are so short on front rowers. Even the big bodies we have in the middle are getting monstered. It’s all down to coaching and fitness…. This club is a disaster

 

[Chris Harding]

He got dropped for no good reason and had a point to prove to the doubters…why wouldn’t he be excited.

Lord Elvar over celebrates a try he had nothing to do with against the shitty Titans and you people act like it’s the greatest thing ever. Flano celebrates a try he scored in his comeback game and he’s a heel.

Nulla have conceded some big leads this year. If our middle d wasn’t so soft that try could have gotten us back in the game.

Credit to Flanno for having a go. Good try from him.
Shame we did the usual concede possession and a soft try from the kick off.

 

[hackenbush]

Why more Perham to centre. F#uck that like saying the game gone. Move him to the wing & move burns to centre.

 

[chemdog]

dont think halves is the main issue we need better forwards and fullback and stop giving the ball away once we make a line break

 

[Bluebody]

Cronulla at full strength, Dogs denied JAC And Burton. The Sharks have the big units, speed, and Hynes to pile on the points and run away with this.
Ref watching the Dogs like a hawk, possession heavily to the Sharks. 60+ points coming against us.

He yells held so fast when we are defending to give the Sharks a faster the play the ball. With us, he forgets how to pronounce held.

 

[Cartel]

He shouldn't even be in firstgrade, the fact that Ciraldo starts him and 5/8 and then shifts him to lock at 18 is fucking idiotic.

He is a terrible coach

 

[Teddybear]

And thats why kiraz will never be centre unmarked averillo and hogs it has no foresight or vision

 

[Chris Harding]

Well, we are running with the wind in the 2nd half...so, I will say one try less in thr 2nd half for the Nulla

Our open door defence will allow for the wind.

 

[ILiveForDib]

Mercy we don’t need a second half of this please ****

 

[D0GMATIC]

The fact these two are in discussion with our club and Gould is overseeing this they can both piss off

Gould has done more for the club in his tenure than his predecessors have done in double the time

 

[Mr 95%]

Come on Gun..

 

[dogzofwar]

Is fucking cirlado going to make changes next week lol

Yeah addo carr for burns loll

 

[Chris Harding]

He yells held so fast when we are defending to give the Sharks a faster the play the ball. With us, he forgets how to pronounce held.

Doesn't penalise them when they hold us down, either.

Yep, sharks much better squad. I didnt expect a win. The thing that kills me is the errors. Reeds error at dummy half was a shocker. How Avo and Kiraz stuffed up the try opportunity I have no idea. Giving away penalties gifting them fileld position to score. Perhams lack of cummunication with Burns was it not taking the high ball. These are all stupid dumb errors.
Dumb Dumb Dumb

 

[Freakzilla]

I hope that you're right. A spine of:

1. Wilson
6. Burton
7. Rajab
9. Mahoney

14. Flanagan (spelling Mahoney)

Would be our best option for the rest of the season.
