Official Round 7 - Bulldogs vs Tigers - Discussion Thread

[D- voice]

I’d like to see Doorey get a run before the season is out. He’s a strong ball runner with a bit of mongrel about him.

Are the lower grades playing this year ?

 

[maroondog72]

I am really looking forward to watching avo and wakeham play again this week but worried that Harry grant will tear JMK A new asshole. Wouldn’t mind seeing cogger get a crack at D/H but the side is finally looking like it should have at the start of the season, doggies win coming up

 

[H-dog]

Hopefully get to see the holland/smith combination that was forming nicely a couple of seasons ago until PAY master stroke of Montoya at centre

 

[Spoonman84]

No. It will be very tough on anyone making their debut this year without any games under their belt. I know a few clubs have played some mini trials with players outside of the starting 17 over the last few weeks hopefully we can organised too.

 

[dogluva]

I reckon Meaney will play on the wing and push Reimis to centre and Holland to the bench instead of Cogger.

I hope not though I like the balance of the back line and bench.

May be right. Articles on the game have said Meaney may be late call up along with Tolman.

Two weeks quarantine and possibly (probably) one week training with the team. I'm not sure when he arrived in Melbourne/started quarantine.

Think he has been in the country a week as the video and article from the club says one week ago.....

 

[dogluva]

The badge is a very rare likeable ref

Yeah. Had a few chats with him and he seems a good bloke. Once was when Casey was making her debut in Canterbury Cup I think at Lidcombe Oval.

 

[B-Train]

Is Meaney deserving of a late call up and another reshuffle? He's been pretty ordinary this season. I'd rather Reimis and DWZ stay on the wings.

Best looking team named all year.

 

[vegny]

Their 5/8 will try too hard or have a brain exposion.

 

[silva]

Holland criticism is harsh tbh. He shits over meaney and crighton

 

[Snake]

I get the feeling Cogger is sacrificial and the 14 jumper will go to another player this week.

Best backline structure we've had for a long time. It's a pity we're seeing it for the first time but happy it's happened. Cogger might throw a decent pass out of dummy half if he comes on for JMK, but he's a bit of a turnstile in defence. I'd rather see an outside back on the bench, with Averillo covering halves and Holland there for hooker.

 

[flamebouyant]

I think he has been ok in a poor side. He is very reliable under the high ball and has done a few good things. The team on a whole has been very poor.

 

[dogzofwar]

Averillo still not a centre gets caught out of position too many times and we concede to many points he should give him a crack at the 9 he’s quick and got good footwork something this team lacks big time and he can’t possibly give any worse service than jmk has been dishing up what’s the worst thing that can happen we lose again lol

 

[Juicydog]

Would look alot better if chn and Okunbor were still on our list.
Thommo in next week i hope?

CHN definitely and definitely not Okunbor

 

[Farcanrefs]

This is the best team Pay has come up with so far.

Smith is terrible at centre, glad to see him back on the wing.

Hate to say this. I have an aweful feeling he will change with Meaney onto wing, Holland to bench Smith back to centre. Sincerely hope I'm wrong.

He is that stupid that he will probably do it unless told not to.
