Today sure beats losing!

 

[Spoonman84]

I never really got the Sue hate, always impact in his runs.

I’m not his biggest fan but you know what you’re going to get with him every week.

 

[dogwhisperer]

You do know you are still last.

Are you a weirdo or something? It’s two points, it’s a step in the right direction to avoid the spoon. It’s not gonna help if we lost today.

Where would this team be if Foran had come to the club fully fit?

I was a big supporter of getting Foz to the club and he has a great football mind and is as hard as nails but he's got getting any younger and he is so injury prone.

 

[Squash the Berries!]

He shouldn’t of been picked, his not ready
6 missed tackles to 9 made
I watch nsw Cup his defence efficiency’s are there for all to see
Anyone that watches it will tel, you the same

Defence was always going to be an issue, but the kid showed me enough to keep him in the halves with Cogger whilst Foran is injured and hopefully Lewis to hooker when fit.

Decision time with Meaney, if Okunbor's back as he should be as soon as he's fit, then does Pay keep Meaney and replace Montoya or drop him to reserves as DWZ looks great at fullback.

Personally I would like to see Meaney in first grade and drop Montoya, I know his defence could be an issue but I want too see him get more first grade experience this season before writing him off.

I've seen enough of Montoya to know he isn't the answer on the wing or centres.

Perhaps R Smith or Okunbor can be tried at centre and Meaney remains on the wing.

I've also seen enough of Hoppa over the years and wouldn't mind him being replaced in first grade by Crichton to see what he has before writing him off also.

We won the game, FFS don't mess with a winning formula, keep the team exactly as it is, we have 2 weeks, maybe Foran can do the miraculous recovery trick again.

Powder puff Woods was a no show today

 

[KiwiDog7]

Interested to know if Foran didn’t get injured where and when Pay would use Wakeham

Wakeham said he would be playing hooker.....

I just believe we should use the remainder of this season to determine who really has potential to assist in our much needed cleanout whenever it happens.

If we can't determine players like Hoppa, Montoya or Lichaa's future by now then when will we.

 

[diddly]

He was ok at the back but ok isn’t good enough/ DWZ backing up today that’s bread and butter FB play that Meaney hasn’t mastered yet

He needs to put on some size

Regardless of whether Meaney puts on muscle n size - he has to learn to not give up as soon as defending player goes near him. Guys like gutherson, brimson, edwards etc seem about the same size but fight every tackle. Meaney I don't recall taking any hard runs coming out of their own end. his kick offs were weak as well - reminded me of coaching non rep jun sides we would let the players who were there just to make up the numbers do all the kick offs and kicks for touch - got them involved. PC before its time

Exactly, words like he shouldn’t be picked agree, but throwing words like he should be fucked off when you yourself say he isn’t ready tell me your missing something upstairs

So you can handle the nice way of putting it but not the naughty way ?
Sorry you got sand In your vagina

 

[maroondog72]

But that's not taking away the Dogs great win.

Don't want to troll. haha

Lol great win??
Good call though wade graham and co where dogging it

 

[Kempsey Dog]

Wakeham said he would be playing hooker.....

Fucking shit go by Pay doing that to a half and if Foran didn't get hurt poor kid would have only got 7 mins out of position

 

[bulldogsfan_88]

Glad we got the win for you and your boy mate
Stick it to those sharks supporters lol

Cheers man and boy have I been... gave it to my wife most of the hour and a half trip home until she threatened to withhold certain things... needless to say I shut up pretty quickly after that

 

[bulldogsfan_88]

Lucky charm mate!!

Damn should have taken him to a game sooner... just didn’t want to subject him to the horrors of being a dogs fan this year. Might just have to take him to a few more though and we might just avoid the wooden spoon

 

[Art Vandelay]

Is it me Or is it so goood seeing the all time losing player Paul Gallen having he shits that we beat his Sharks?
Bloody awesome.

 

[Kaz]

Lol great win??

They beat the sharks, so it is a great win.

You forgot Hoppa

You being the biggest Hoppa hater I’m not surprised you conveniently forgot

It wasnt convenient at all that I forgot Hoppa. He played better than he has been but is still a borderline first grader.
He usually misses a heap of tackles, is usually out of position, and he is far to slow. But, today was one of his better games.
