Official Round 8 - Bulldogs vs Rabbitohs - Discussion Thread

[TalDog]

Hooker & utility are a must, Jackson stifles our edge attack as well needs to be moved to the middle.

Has been getting tips from tolman

 

[Riggs80]

This is what I have been waiting to see , actual attack and attempted use of the ball. That’s the way they need to continue to play

 

[SPEARTAKVIDREFS]

Souths shit tonight which has helped. Our boys have turned up and for the first time in ages we are getting out of our half. Still have another 40mins, hopefully we'll come out of the sheds confident.

 

[CrittaMagic69]

JMK has actually been terrific.

Probably his best 40 in a blue and white jumper

I'd say Wakeham playing on the ball and being in and around the ruck has probably contributed to that. We look better organised and the communication between the the two is allowing us to make smarter and quicker decisions.

 

[finchie]

Wakes is warming to the role.. good to see. Forwards are having a crack.

Who would’ve thought using your bench adequately would help towards the end of the half
Toomaga on
Britt on
Sue on

wow
It only took 8 rounds

 

[Spoonman84]

Wakeham and Renouf work really well together. Been a couple of times where they were unlucky to not break the line or even score. Hopefully Renouf gets decent minutes in the 2nd half it could pay off.

 

[surfdog]

Still the w/e and im still happy ! I cant believe how offside Souths have been the last 10-15 of the half, bin cant be far off

 

[berries1935]

Solid half by the boys.......... nobody follows the man with the ball through the middle. Fullbacks or wingers looking for the ball need to move up with the ball

Yeah hopefully they keep backing themselves instead of going back to the usual conservative mentality just because the game is close.

 

[TalDog]

Wakeham/ Hastings and add a hooker I’d even take peats

 

[Dognacious]

Montoya has actually looked alright. Plenty of vigor. If he can find his early form when he started playing for us he goes ok. Attack is still a bit blunt but they are trying.

 

[Scoooby]

Our boys have every chance again to win this one, it’s very likely If done well.!!!

 

[B-Train]

Don’t know but he is playing better with his new hairdo! Great steal!

Renouf needs serious minutes even when Thompson plays. The kid is a serious talent and is being wasted.

 

[finchie]

Far out I miss averillo
Play him right centre and move sheimis back to right wing

 

[Sleeky]

Nek minute, off after 8 minutes and doesn’t come back on so Tolman can take 4th tackle hit ups

I wonder how he went from starting prop to
Coming off the bench last week in the 55th min
To coming on after 20 mins this week

all in 3 rounds of footy ?????

 

[Spoonman84]

Soft penalty

 

[belmore_utd]

Lol at that high tackle. Ref obviously looking for square up penalties

I know. It boggles the mind. Imagine how frustrated he'd be? Pay is just bringing the madness!! Haha.
