Official Round 7 - Dogs vs Cowboys - Consolidated Match Thread

[Bull Terrier]

Yeah mate it’s easy to miss things at ANZ . It’s the perfect prop rotation at full strength as they all have different strengths. Even Fualalo looked good tonight.

Yeah anz is hard to watch footie. Fualalo was good. Good to get that win we needed it bad

 

[Spoonman84]

There’s just something extra special about bringing players into first grade and seeing them grow. Love seeing Ofa improving each week and can’t wait until Renouf gets a good run in the top grade

Ofa comes up with big runs when they are needed the most too. We haven’t had a prop that bends the line him in a while besides Klemmer.

 

[Cosmo24]

It's been a good night. A pretty decent win and we can also still rightfully bag both the refs and lichaa. Also, how good were the backrowers!

Each week I feel we’re playing 16 v 20 (including the two refs and Lichaa)

 

[GoTheDoggies]

CHN had a top game

Our attack is refreshing to watch when it clicks.

We kept going after copping that dud call forward pass for what should of been our first try.

 

[LordSidious66]

Are your crazy mate
Who needs Robson when you have the Leach playing at our club
What’s wrong with you,seriously

Hey mate, I went to the hospital and they said there is nothing wrong with me. I am now at home celebrating the dogs victory. . Surely this the final straw for licshit?

 

[LordSidious66]

I hope the cows run last for the next 10 years to teach the turd a lesson.

Hope he enjoys being stuck behind Granville.

How bad is Morgan now?
Has become awul.

a bit flat this year... maybe less confident without JT... anyone would be...

 

[Kempsey Dog]

Wonder if Robson is having second thoughts about joining cowboys??

Yeah fuck the little prick. Oh but Taumalolo is there... they are shit and will be for sometime. Old forwards and trash backline.

 

[Mr Invisible]

Yes the whole pack played good. Lichaa only got like 10 minutes think his on the outer. I was sitting behind him and he was dying to get on glad he didnt get his 20 min

He got less than 10. Came on with about 7 or 8 to go.

With Naps and Foran back, and To'omaga getting match fit, surely he's on borrowed time.

 

[Lil Ms Fabulous]

I think your mob deserved to win (it’s not often I say this stuff either) but the problem is, we have no leadership at the moment. As much as I love Margo, he just doesn’t have the ego that Thursty did.

I also have a feeling that Greeny won’t last next year tops

 

[Precise]

He let JMK play 70, so hopefully once Pay knows that he can play 80 minutes, Lichaa will get dropped.

There's no doubt in my mine JMK couldn't play the 10 more minutes already, he was still running into position in the last minutes he was on. Very solid performance tonight needs to be our full time, Lewis or Jacko can throw a few from dummy if he gets tired. We need the 4th on bench rotation and if I see licha step and double pump again every ball I'm inclined to double pump my fist through the tv.

 

[Ant2611]

That was actually a pretty good win with everything considered. There’s still plenty to work on but we were very solid defensively and apart from the Cowboys second try they never really threatened until they had a glut on ball in the final 10. Meaney is getting more and more dangerous a break out game isn’t far away for him. CHN was easily our best followed by Tolman, Jacko and Cogger who had a much better second half.

We finally got a fullback.

 

[BMOC]

Oh and our win tonight means the Knights are officially last for the time being:

Suck
Fucking
Shit

This is the best post. Can’t stand them since klem pissed off to them. Wel it suggests that Klemmer is not a match winner. We had him in our team and couldn’t win matches as well. So glad we didn’t pay him what he wanted.

Best fucking thing indeed, add to that the massive over hype about Ponga at 5/8. Though I doubt them and Brisbane will be 1 and 6 after end of round. Refs will get them the wins.

 

[thadoggiezman]

He dropped the ball cold, he let in a try, he didn't even attempt to score off a kick intended for him.. What's there not to love ?

The fact you think he had a poor game over dropping the ball once (happens to the best of them), despite showing great hands throughout the match even in the lead up to Jacko's try as well as conceding a try off a kick, which has happened to every Dogs winger ever, just shows you have a clear agenda against him and for some reason or another just want to see the very few and far between bad moments in his game tonight. Why don't you stop being a little bitch, and actually support the young player who has showed flashes of brilliance in his 5 games in the NRL, instead of bagging him out at every oppurtunity you get.

 

[Apercots]

Id take Taumalolo but otherwise that team is trash

 

[Bull Terrier]

Meaney is getting better every game. His defence is 100% better. He runs hard bringing the ball back something we lacked over the years. Is a very good buy for us as he is already good to watch. His speed is a big plus and hoping to see him in the clear running scoring a few tries.

 

[BG73]

Pay needs to work on:

- Our defensive line speed, it was pathetic last night
- Our halves taking full control in the attacking half. I love Tolmans work but seriously why is he given the ball so often. Halves need to call him out of it.
- support play still very poor. Meany is actually a good support player as displayed in his Newcastle days, my feeling is Pay May be telling him to play safe
- Teach our halves their kicking options in attacking 20m. It was a atrocious tonight if anything at all

Getting all that off my chest, it was brave and spirited performance tonight and it was effort that got us the points. Players are looking like they want to play for each other.

Can't do anything about the defensive line speed. If we come up too fast we get penalised. Refs know this.

I can't help how I assess players or coaches I have yet to be proven wrong.

It's like I have a gift
