2014 Auckland 9's Discussion

[Alphamale]

That's what happens when you wear blue and gold on a footy field - you get pounded by the team wearing white and blue. Bring on regular season.

things i discovered from this 9s game:

a) mbye is a goodplayer with good offense and defense
b) brown is slow, and id be quick to give him the boot.
c) tony williams is a giant kid with ADD. seems to have no concentration nor does he know what to do on the field. Lets hope this doesn't carry into normal season
d) thompson isn't ready for first grade
e) confirmed perrett shouldnt be seriously considered at fullback.

"Under Des" we will not win a game in the 9's

 

[Rodzilla]

So... whats Ennis's excuse

hes got a team of retards around him

 

[Ndawai]

Who came up with these pools anyway?
Lets put the Bulldogs against the Donkeys for the Barbara saga and then pitch them against rivals the parrafails and then why not throw in the current premiers. FFS

all i see is $$$ -

Now Im copping it from Parra supporters *sigh*

I'm not sure many people care about 9s, if I had the choice between winning 9s games or being completely prepared for the season and being at full strength, I know which I'd choose

 

[2nd phase play]

Lachy Burr was the only player having a go..
Pretty funny the commentators were calling Drury Low when it was Jaline Graham.

I don't know why people are getting upset what do you expect with the team that we had on the park, we were always going to be embarrassed.
Why do you think Des didnt go he knew it was going to happen.
Laughing at people putting money on it, there is a reason why we are paying $67!!

With Frank co-captain i reckon Ennis is on the outer.

That's what I've heard about him being on the outer but didn't believe it when I was told until frank was made as a co captain

Good thing we're playing under Dymock then.

 

[Dapper Dog]

I don't think anyone is disillusioned that this outcome sheds light on how we will perform this season. Either way it was disappointing for the fans to watch their team get embarassed like that
I liked the set move for Perrett's try even though I don't want perrett to remain at fullback - Perrett and Inu for the wings I think

I feel bad for any bulldogs fans that went to the 9's lol

 

[Ndawai]

Highlight of the tournament: Freddy Fitlers strong tackle on Barba!! hahahahaha

 

[Rodzilla]

Lachy Burr was the only player having a go.

he obviously doesnt understand that possession of the ball is the most important thing and teams should be able to score tries with ball in hand

 

[Mr Invisible]

IT'S A 9'S TOURNAMENT! What do you want him to do, his playing with bunch of crap players.
Get off his back bro

I want quick play the balls. I dont want flat passing, and i never want to see him kick a ball again. A dual leg amputee could kick better.

If this is Ennis playing even 50% of his form this year, then warm up the nsw cup bench for his arrival.

Every team in the 9s with a decent dummy half is doing well.

We have the dummy but not the half.

Id get off his back but hes a first grade player paid hundreds of thousands a year to play football, and should be performing better 9s or not.

We are like a month from first game and if thats even close to his best, prepare for a spoon this year as a side without a hooker cant function.

 

[bullpup1971]

that was fuken hopeless we did not even try, no attack.

So Jaline Graham was 7.
Is he a half? Can he play fb?
From under 20 s or nsw cup last year.
He looks the goods to me.

For only $40 a day you too could sponsor a bulldogs 9's player to be rehabilitated to be able to regain lost motor skills where we will retrain them to catch a ball again, run in the right direction, count to 5 and within 6 - 12 months we will have them able to tackle a moving player 50-60% of the time!

 

[Rodzilla]

btw next time if hasler wants to send a 3rd rate team then at least show up to the tournament and own it

 

[CBDoggies]

I knw what's happening, des knws warriors will win it anyway so no point risking anything. That's what I'm telling myself so I can feel better lol

 

[boggie23]

I feel thats how we played
