Round 17 - Dogs vs Eels - Team List and Game Discussion Thread.

[enoughsaid]

Graham getting him neck fixed up for the end of season WORLD CUP.
then play busted in 2018 collecting his million dollar backend deal.

 

[Spoonman84]

He could have done either

8.Tolman
10. Klemmer
11. RFM
12. Elliott
13. Jacko

Or

8. Tolman
10. Klemmer
11. Jacko
12. Elliott
13. Fualalo

But instead puts Kas in there who is a terrible starting player and will be gassed after a minute and won't recover. This doesn't even take into account that Kas won't even be here next year and we could see what the ones that are here next year can do when they start....

 

[Novdoggie]

Is Kasiano wearing #10 or only going to last 10?

 

[Dawgfather]

Where do you think Kasiano is at this very moment?

a) Maccas
b) El Jannahs Granville
c) KFC
d) out back having smoko

 

[Izzy Forreal]

Hmm... For forwards including the bench we've got five front rowers, three second rowers and Lichaa. Hasler's rotation will be interesting with this lot especially if he gives Frawley the punt as he did against th Warriors. After all Frawley is the only decent half back in the club with a better kicking game than both Reynolds and Mbye, but as these talents are totally against Hasler's idea of what's good I wouldn't be a bit surprised if he was on the outer again.

Presuming Tolman is our captain we might get on okay with the two referees but I'm unsure how he will go leading the team by example. To me he always gives it his best shot but he looks like he's always being the nice guy and leaves the "mongrel" part to some one else.

Being a fan 56 years its great to see the boys put together a big win and it hurts a lot to see the shitfest they put on against the Warriors. But as our guys only turn up to play every now and then anything can happen.

 

[Mr Invisible]

Congratulations Parramatta!
Prepare Eels fans for records to fall.

That will change this weekend.

[Bulldog_4_Life]

People forget that we actually can't afford to sack Des, the club doesn't have 3 million lying around.

 

[Dognacious]

Yawn Des. Lichaa 9 Mbye 7. Fan fucking tastic. Would be ok if he rotated mbye for Frawley to be 7, but Des "tunnel vision" Hasler will rotate Frawley with Reynolds instead. Even when we have the players fit to have a much better spine arrangement Des wont use it. Recall the combination we scored a lot of our points with and won more with this year? Has Des forgotten that? Whats wrong with him? Is it revenge for 95, who knows. /rant

 

[maltalian_dog]

Cmon dogs. Hate Parra I'm not a believer but would love to win this one

radradra and jennings are better than morris twins. Mannah has been quite poor this season. Brown has been one of parra's best and klemmer is great and all but he's a prop while in terms of locks, brown is better imo. Tualau should be better than or equal to Matagi and Smith is a much better utility than Frawley as one can play anywhere in the backline, halves or hooker while one is a NSW cup halfback with an above average kicking game.

 

[CaptainJackson]

Can one of our boys at least take Kenny Edwards head off?

 

[Mr Invisible]

People forget that we actually can't afford to sack Des, the club doesn't have 3 million lying around.

It's also that it counts towards our Support Staff cap (as does hiring another coach).

 

[CMP]

People forget that we actually can't afford to sack Des, the club doesn't have 3 million lying around.

If any club does have the cash lying around it is the Bulldogs.
It's the new coaching staff salary cap that will be the issue. Because like the players, a payout will still count and cause trouble with our coaching numbers.

 

[chemdog]

Whats our winning record with perenara as ref ?
