I’ll just be glad when Des is no longer a factor on the Kennel. He’s been gone a long time now and what’s done it done.
although the he really fucked us with the cap. Can’t take away him taking us to 2 GF appearances in the first 3 years. Albeit should have won one.

Never seen such a "Myth" of a team go so far in the season. A complete 1 man team!

Also happy to see that Hazem's record isn't broken too.

P.S Eat a dick Des!!!!!!

Manly overachieved this year because turbo had a freak year.... take him out of their side or shut him down and they are nothing more than a fringe top 8 side.
They would’ve been wooden spooners without turbo we would and should’ve flogged them

Wow, a lot of Karen’s on here. It’s a rugby league forum after all isn’t it?! And yes, it’s great to see the myth get his teeth kicked in!

They kept putting up the points tally stats last night… Hazem with almost 350 pts in a season back in 2004, with Reuben Garrick not far behind….. please, the game now is farking touch footy, what Haz achieved back then when the game was played is a massive feat.
Never compare the 2.
Oh yeah… And a huge F U again to Des. Farking one trick pony. This f*ck never has a Plan B & it showed again last night.

Hasler hasn't learnt jackshit.

His entire gameplan revolves around Turbo producing magic, if he's neutralised then it's game over
Similar to when our hopes rested on Ben Baba's shoulders when we played Melbourne in the Grand final, they shut him down and the support players around him and that was it.

As I said in another post, if plan a doesn't work des has no plan b. The 2012 GF proved that when we continually attacked through Barba and Morris in the area of the park where Dane Nielsen was so far offside he was virtually living in our backline.

He needs quality centres and they didn't find a genuine AFB replacement in the middle.

Manly's cap must still be cooked with the 1 mil DCE dudley deal
The 2 turbo brothers are on plenty. My guess would be $3m tied up between them and dce.

Look I know it is Des, but that game was shit to watch. I tipped the Rabbits but I expected a more entertaining game than that. I went to bed before it ended I was so tired and bored.

Des' record is consistent - he can take a team to the finals, and have them destroyed.

Souths showed that solid defence, and keeping Turbo in the middle of the field is the way to beat Manly.

Throughout the year, the Dogs have shown competitive spirit, but were starved of possession - usually only seeing around 40% of the ball in their hands. Playing against sides like Manly, when they have 60%-70% possession, there is no way we can win.

Last night, it was Manly's turn to be starved of the ball, and they played no better than the Dogs in the same situation.

Maybe we'll see a much improved Bulldogs if we can get an even share of the ball - we saw a glimpse of that in our last game against the Tigers.

Before this season I don’t think I have ever done that but I found myself turning off early very regularly.

The biggest problem is only Tom is value for money when he isn’t injured. Jake is a very average forward and DCE is a flat track bully against low teams.

What a travesty (and crying shame) that Haz El Magic's record lost to a one season wonder player, and club, in this one season wonder touch footy experiment :(

Our guy will still hold the true record (in our estimation at least) until a true competition of like for like is reinstated!
