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

[Trinfly]

I dont many on TK would fault the effort particularly in defence but the attack was lacking creativity, combinations, there were two tries on the left which was great to see, maybe too early to expect those combos but thats supporters for you.

 

[Trinfly]

Actually I'm happy, but about my son.

We beat Cabramatta today in our first trial and my boy folded a massive islander kid in half with a solo tackle, picked up the ball and offloaded for an 70m try to our FB.

Fkn proud as punch. Perfect technique, head to the side, shoulder into the lower rib cage, hands around the thighs and drove him into the ground with all his might and weight on top of him.

Ohh then after the try he checked on the boy then went to celebrate with the boys.

Good story bro,

Delusion

Funny how your tune changes once its someone you like being criticised, once xerri is back, wilson dropped to reserves

 

[King Gus]

Score was 14-8 if you take 2 tries away from them.

On a different day it maybe 14-8 dogs way.. Too early to say we arent competitive.

If the ref gave us the same treatment as he did to parra we would win with ease.

 

[Bad Billy]

Lol. You're complaining that he isn't running through people but around them. My good you guys need to take a breath and that's coming from me

I’m not complaining.
I’m illustrating the difference and the reason for my preference.

 

[GA45]

So we still suck. Awesome

 

[Trinfly]

What ive noticed over games with Wilson when he stuffs up he is dirty on himself and tries to make amends sometimes compounding his errors. But he has great attitude bit like Presto and Kiraz. They will be worth the wait.

 

[bradtalo]

HE MADE 5 ERRORS TODAY

Yep and Ciraldo likely places Wilson in front of Skelton when Skelton makes only one

 

[Upthadogs]

a drop out he could have just caught?? And the intercept he could have taken? Any other player and you d be rinsing them, just because you like wilson you cant bare to, if you think hes good enough long term, you are part of the problem

You are a proper special unit if you think the last try was on Wilson and he could have caught that intercept. Go have a nap.

no mate, its just common sense, yeah, lets act like a winger who made 5 errors had a good game, unreal bro

 

[Alan79]

Had to work tonight so I didn't see the game. But I've seen enough of Wilson last year to think he's an NRL player. I think there's going to be players ahead of him though. He didn't let 26 points in alone. But people do tend to want a scapegoat after these losses. Seems like he's it tonight.

You sound like you have read a stat sheet without actually watching the game. So by your logic, players are better off leaving intercept options and not even attempting to catch shit passes so it doesn't show on the stats sheet?

Wilson had the 4th fastest play the ball in our side.

Mate i watched every minute as i always do and wilson, taafe in particular, garbage

 

[Matthew G]

you d have been rinsing any other player for that performance…

 

[CrittaMagic69]

No I wouldn't. Wilson's performance is well down the list of things I'm worrying about right now in regards to our side.

Sheesh not good mate.
Albeit I passed out earlier so I understand fd up sleeps.
Also earlier I said(whilst pissed)he was scared that was likely incorrect, lacks polish though imo.
Bit too prone conceding errors and I don't think he is a long term wing option really but gets a reprieve now anyway with JAC likely out for a while.
