Lots of dropped ball. Cronulla was very very strong in the second half. And they scored off an error. Anyone’s game and we were in the contest until late which is a good sign. Bring on the season I say.

 

[JORDZILLA]

Lol we have 2 weeks to improve alot

burton was our best spine player on the field

 

[Berries]

I am feeling really good for this year, we looked solid and crisp in attack. Players know their roles, we worked to plans targeting Sharkies smaller players one on one with our left side attack. Short kicking game was solid and the long amazing, strong work done by our backs getting us out of trouble every set starting in our own half. Strong leadership from Ciraldo, he picked his side in November after the first stretching session and he was 100% right.

Ado car looks like he has bulked up

getting good service from his inside centre

 

[spscand]

Same year same boring dogs

This. This is really hard to contend with, weve shown ZERO attack improvement in 10 years. Let that sink in. 10 fucking years.

 

[Bad Billy]

Clearly our D has improved from last year. But honestly, I think our attack has gotten worse, if that’s possible.

Because outside of kicking he didn’t touch the ball. Not being seen is how to be the Dogs best player lmao

Salmon gets the starting jersey for mine

Hahahahhaha love this.

 

[Scoooby]

Messy , scrappy , disjointed. Nothing like the team we saw last week !! Full of mistakes, my man Taaffe had a shocker, Xeeri didn’t play any better either, in fact was a complete change from how they played last week.

 

[Reecek89]

See the size difference in the packs that last 15 lol
Morrin is just too small, has heart but man if only he was 20cm taller

 

[Northern Beaches dog]

Dont look at the defense holding the sharks to 12
The sharks were missing Hynes who is the main clog in there attack.
He is there MAIN player in attack.
Our attack is absolutely trash.
The left edge is EXACTLY the same as last season.
Burton has NOT improved at all. He has zero creativity.
We cannot create.
Our middles are very very poor.
We are badly under strength in the middle.
Ciraldo will be under pressure by round 10

Not hard to be with the other duds bro....

 

[flamebouyant]

Sharkies didn’t really have much ball first half plus 12 errors. Not going to say our D was amazing

Didn't have much ball?? We dropped it on every 2nd set. How does that not give the sharks "much ball?"

 

[CrittaMagic69]

Salmon is so overrated, do not see it at all.

 

[Psycho Doggie]

Poor game all told, from both teams. It was a decent hit out, need to rub out at least half the errors to have any chance of winning a regular season game.

 

[Dogzzz of War]

Our 2 halfbacks are half human half turtle. Slowest players in the game

 

[Berries]

Woul


Decent way into the first half the sharks had 64% possession…

I didn’t watch the first 15 but it felt like it was never in good field position

2023 dogs get dusted by 24+ in this game

Exactly this
