wilson not bad but not nrl for this year

clutchinson same

Critta please dont try hard

Burto not bad

Hoping for a huge one from Sexto

 

[Bulldog1966]

Yes I react to us playing poorly
And I react to us playing well. We played poorly in attack and I reacted accordingly and we played well in defence (mostly) and I reacted accordingly

Apologies if you made a positive post it's something I don't see from you, could you pin me? Lmao

 

[AlzzBulldog]

Is critta injured?

 

[CrittaMagic69]

I can’t already with Taaffe lol. I want to see Burton and Sexton in the second half.

He offers fuck all. Our fans just rated him because they don't actually watch other games and only saw him carve up Burton and EQW when they played us lol.

 

[CrittaMagic69]

I hope Critta isn’t injured

No, planned sub @ 20.

 

[Berries]

I’ll @ you every time. Probably won’t get too many pings though I’ll give you that haha

 

[The DoggFather]

Is critta injured?

Na, just planned to play the opening 20 only

 

[chemdog]

Wilson bad
No go forward
Burton decent
Salmon good in D

no go forward was always going to be a problem for us this season. going to need a lot from our outside backs this year to make yardage

 

[maroondog72]

Nope, they planned to play him 20 minutes only.

Yeah I know but that seems a little weird to me

 

[Robbothedestroyer]

Papa and sexton on to start the 2nd half.
Can Skelton play prop need to find someone to bend the line consistently in the guts.

 

[Doggiezbrah]

He offers fuck all. Our fans just rated him because they don't actually watch other games and only saw him carve up Burton and EQW when they played us lol.

Bro, he didn’t even shine in a stacked team at the rabbits. I think we signed him after that one game lol. I think he is too small for fullback and gets dominated when carrying the ball. It’s like playing JAC there lol.

 

[DFLWatto]

What a fucking painful 40 mins that was..
- Mahoney passing the ball to everyone’s knees
- Hutchison is having a knight
- Overall discipline is fucking atrocious

 

[maroondog72]

No, planned sub @ 20.

Yeah I know it was planned I just hope it wasn’t planned because he picked up an injury in the indigenous game

 

[Berries]

Yeah I know but that seems a little weird to me

20 seems a bit short for a pre season hit out, didn’t feel like it was worth the risk if he didn’t play 40

 

[ILiveForDib]

Sexton for Hutcho round 1 imo and tell Mahoney to get his parra serve coach back

 

[GoTheDoggies]

Everytime I've seen Skelton play FG I can't see how he plays himself out of a wing spot.

Wilson is just as error prone without the go forward.

 

[CaptainJackson]

He offers fuck all. Our fans just rated him because they don't actually watch other games and only saw him carve up Burton and EQW when they played us lol.

Thank it's been us two who wanted Tracey at fullback over taffe from day dot

 

[cookieman909]

Ball handling terrible. At least we seem to have improved the defence. Although there try was way to easy.

 

[Marki]

I believe so.
He needs alpha halves who demand the ball.
Every once in a while, he can do something out of the ordinary and catch players napping, but he's making too many decisions out there and we are still playing too much one out predictable rubbish.

The team has enough strike power to play off the cuff with forwards just running decoys. But it needs the halves to demand the ball so Reed is not making these decisions.

 

[boggie23]

We have played badly, dropped ball, made some bad defensive reads, had not much go forward and we are 6-6. I remember this trial last 2 seasons and it was over before the half. So not too bad so far.
