Official Round 10 - Bulldogs vs Raiders Game Day Thread

[Heckler]

Teams to be updated once announced.


Short turn around, can’t get a read on the raiders, we always seem to struggle against them.. They have a huge pack aswell, gonna be another tough game, is anyone back?

Kiraz possibly

 

[CQDog]

He will probably pick and keep a winning side together but guys like Okunbor, Casey and Reynolds are some serious liabilities and a side that isn’t the Dragons will capitalize better than they did.

 

[Eesma]

This would be my team
1. Perham
2. Burns
3. Averillo
4. Alamoti
5. Skelton
6. KO
7. Burton
8. RFM
9. Mahoney
10. TPJ
11. Preston
12. Waddell
13. Edwards

14. Brown
15. Morrin
16. Hughes
17. Sutton

Burns is out. Return date "TBC".

raiders by 30!!

You should be banned for 30!

I think raiders will be off this week. Last week was a massive effort, an emotion charged win. So offen we see teams do that then the following week drop their lollies. Wighton will be due a shocker, I think we scrape in for a win.

Its Burns who has shit tons of injuries all the time and its a 5 day turn around so you’re probably correct that he would miss out. Skelton will have to be selected if thats the case but that lookin eshay Casey still in the side makes me feel sick.

Okunbor ran 45m, had the slowest play the ball speed in the game and made some shocking "efforts" in defence. He is terrible.

and nearly let in a try finger grabbing when Reynolds (I think) was called to back off the tackle as he was offside - JO nearly shat himself when he realised he was the only thing stopping the try about 10m out...

 

[GrogDog]

I suspect Raiders used all of their emotion (Wighton) last week and I'm feeling good about our chances. We've already proven we can match most teams including the top tier but often discipline, ref's etc turns the result on us.

Raiders will be a tough game but a very winnable one for us coming off a win. Discipline in play and behaviour will be crucial on this one with most games now having players in the bin.

The NRL is out of control with the amount of sin bins this year and I'm hoping the ARL please explain to the boss's sorts this BS out. Suppose to be by Wednesday the please explain so it may influence the amount of binning this weekend atleast.

Dogs 12+

Okunbor doing a great job in the middle though..this one run he made nearly 20 metres just through the guts. But no doubt Hughes will get more time in the next few weeks

Despite all the haters, i actually think he is turning into a decent utility. How many players can cover wing and prop?? He my not be killing it in both positions, but he does a job, and with our current injury crisis, that what we need from him.
Bar his over run of the ball against cronulla his mistakes have almost disapeared, and he is starting to have a bit of impact on the field. If he continues to improve i wouldnt overly mind if he was re-signed tbh. Same can be said for Waddell. I think he has been very good for us this year. So long as they were both signed on minimal contracts i have no issue.

Maybe Pele

On another note, the next 3 and the final 5 games are most winnable this season.
Second clash against Parra round 15, Knights round 18. You know what if we can go 3/4 which is above expectation these wins will be crucial come season end. How many wins for the 8 this year usually 12-13 isn’t it previous years?

Usually winning under 50% get's you in the Top 8 (LOL) but last year from memory for and against was crucial....

 

[dogluva]

Ridiculous scheduling....last to play last week's round, first to play this week's round.

Yep you can't put brains in status.

Our second short turnaround...

 

[maroondog72]

raiders by 30!!

Why don’t you just fuck off back to the forum of the team you really follow?

 

[Roger the alien]

Will Preston be out with hia or did he come back on yesterday?

 

[Nexus]

He passed the HIA

 

[KLil]

Pele for Okunbor please! Sutto back in for Morrin.

Apart from when he scores tries that bomb he took when he nearly scored was best thing he’s ever done
