Official ROUND 1 | Bulldogs vs Eels | Discussion thread 5:30pm @ CommBank Stadium

[Dogmonster]

Might be good in defence, but still dishing up the same old garbage in attack, half a team of jack of all trades and masters of none. Another long frustrating year.

 

[jof]

Leaving Fox on to save an interchange is beyond retarded.

 

[Glenn L]

I had hope, was looking forward to this year. We don’t actually expect a lot, that’s the problem!!!

Hope doesn't win matches. The right players do...

 

[XR6T]

The **** needs a bus ticket back to Penrith!!

I think the $$$ and media sucking him off has got to his head....taking a back seat and collecting the $$$. Another TPJ/T-Rex.

 

[Cappuccino]

Old bulldogs concede 4+ so at least some positive signs

 

[The DoggFather]

Please don’t overstate his abilities by using the word “super”. Maybe refer to him as sub-par assistant?

I stand corrected

 

[XR6T]

Because we give him zero service. You can't just pass the ball to him and expect him to trample defenders, he just ain't that type of player.

He can't even hold the ball...

 

[Doogie]

Another season , same shit halves.

Fixed it.

 

[Doggies2035]

This is such a garbage outcome josh addo Carr don’t wanna get of the field even thought his arm is gone.

Stephen C no touches

Said it from day dot taffe is too small and horrible and this game shows it especially fullback for us

And overall team just making mistakes simple as that it’s round 1 yes but this is a very average parra side

 

[Snake]

Looks exactly like last year. Taffee the new Perham. No go forward. Reed has worn himself out in D and will start making errors in the second half.

 

[The DoggFather]

PS is there a replay of our reserves?

 

[Glenn L]

At least the line speed in defence has improved. We would have been down 30 plus last year

 

[lafai]

Just wait we'll get Turuva, Soni Luke and Kurt Falls to save us!

 

[GoTheDoggies]

Not enough yardage in the back 5

 

[ILiveForDib]

Taafe must be confused with the premium treatment south’s get. Critta is having a nightmare to bless him.

 

[no1bulldog]

CC to rush Perham back in to the side to replace Taffe

 

[chemdog]

Tracey to replace Taaffe and skelton to replace ado carr next week

 

[Cook]

I reckon both Taafe and Kikau drops were from Cartwright stripping the ball. Players didn’t complain though, camera showed it for me

 

[T-Rocket]

Can't blame Burton.. we had no fucken ball. You guys are just haters, and find anything to shit on him

Nah. I'll agree we haven't had ball but what has Burto done when we have. Shit ball to someone with no space or generic midfield bomb that nobody chases. It's not so much his fault as he needs to do better to put us in a better position.

To be honest, I’m not going into this year with high hopes anymore! Until we “start” winning consecutive games then I’ll change my mind, until then

Bombs on 5th
Stop their motherfuckin offloads
Cant hold onto a ball
Error prone
No attack

Out point differentials going to keep rising and rising
