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

[Brendan7]

Hutch is not a halfback, burton is not a 5/8. Were in trouble

we have no halves and before people say Sexton he’s reserve standard too

 

[707_2Belmore]

The dogs should’ve gone to Vegas. That way NFL teams can poach Burto off us to be their punter

 

[The DoggFather]

Fans bagging Wilson, lol zero clue.

Bro, he is using him as a prop. If that's his plan then pick Skelton FFS

 

[jordansaba]

we’re just rubbish idgaf there’s no excuses. incompetence and retardedness is embedded in our fucking dna

 

[John Matrix]

Only positive was our defence.

Everything else needs a review.

 

[Robbothedestroyer]

Taaffe, Wilson and Kiraz only players to run 100m +.No impact from forwards, Kikau 40m.

 

[Scoooby]

The whole friggen club at the moment make me sick and it starts with a fucking assistant coach picking duds.
how Hutchinson gets picked over sexton
Wilson over Skelton
Kiraz with NO PRESEASON FORM over xerri

our only 110kg prop plays the first 10 mins and the last 4 mins of a game.
Mahoney can’t play 80, Mann needs to relieve him 10 before half time

Yup XERRI was the one who got me !! He’s a far superior player !!

 

[AlzzBulldog]

If he dosent drop shitson next week then im not watching

 

[shannon2009]

Can't wait for the press conference. Should be insightful

Yeah I’m putting 100 down that we hear “great effort” “the process”

 

[chemdog]

Watch parra get smacked next week, whoever they play

Penrith in Penrith will be good game

 

[Bullpit]

Was a stupid set wheres the creativity I wonder what Gus is thinking, we have nothin

Gus is thinking of only one thing - his retirement and how he is going to spend the millions of $ss we are gifting him as his salary

 

[AlzzBulldog]

Fans bagging Wilson, lol zero clue.

Hes not the player we need right now

 

[Mr 95%]

Vonnie to Gutherson, “Round 1 winners, how’s that feel Skipper? Gee she must have done a doctorate at the school of cliches..

 

[The DoggFather]

Only positive was our defence.

Everything else needs a review.

How shit are we when a positive is only letting 26 points in....

 

[Bazildog]

Fans bagging Wilson, lol zero clue.

Whatever hater boy

 

[Cook]

Hutch was one of out best today.. also Wilson of he didn't drop the ball at the end was solid enough

There’s some strange comments coming hey. Dramatic queens!! Line breaks were 3 all in end. 4 tries to 2. I know I look for positives, but we were never seriously beating parra at home. We ain’t there yet. Our games improved massively, give us that possession and we win easily

 

[Pottz]

After round 1 no coach in the competition will swing the axe on selections. Forced change likely for JAC so either Tracey or Xerri to centre and Kiraz to wing. He’ll possibly switch Curran and Salmon but Curran ended up playing 67 minutes anyway so not much of a switch in reality.

Positives for me:
- Kikau and Crichton can carve up the left attack especially when JAC is fit. Surely Ciraldo drills Burton and Hutchison on this during the week.
- Curran awesome, reminds me of David Stagg.
- Mann was good, 35 tackles and 96m run in 55 minutes.

 

[Bazildog]

I asked you who was better tonight

Curran, Critta, Preston and to be fair even Mahoney.

 

[maroondog72]

You really really think CC is going to select him

Yeah I reckon he will.

 

[The DoggFather]

Penrith in Penrith will be good game

Penrith should be frothing to put a score on these pretenders
