Official Round 2 - Bulldogs vs Cowboys - Discussion Thread

[XR6T]

He has become a good footballer, I like him last year he was a bit hesitant but gave heaps tonight and Would be good at fullback

He is still young and has put some size on now. He will be a keeper for years to come, believe me. The kid is consistent and doesn't have many mistakes in him.

Sancho. You were def right about Lewis. Not a half.

Anybody could see that tbh but the kid is a good footy player though so difficult to find a position for him unless he bulked up.

 

[XR6T]

Thurston said we looked way better in the last 20 with Wakeham.

What would Thurston know....the Kennel knows better!

Andrew Johns also said Elliott is a future origin player. Now I actually like Elliott but I wouldn't go that far .

Johns is also known to be on some funny pills!

I liked him when he first came to us he has worked hard on his game you can see the difference this year. Good on Meaney. Well done

Johns is the opposite of Thurston. Has no sense. The guy still whacks himself off about Mullen

 

[KiwiDog7]

Pay is fixated on defence and thinks that playing his plodders for long mins is some kind of badge of honour!

Guess what Pay? Fatigue leads to bad decisions and errors which leads to opposition tries

He forced his first sub with 12 to go in first half only because DWZ was binned !

Toomaga got one short stint

We were chasing points and our most damaging forward was sitting down!

Kudos to him for hooking Lewis but the damage was done

And he will prob start Cogger and Lewis next week

So where’s the dean pay rent a crowd????

No not many could see it on here. Then u go and say but hes a good footballer. Hahabahabaha

They’re here. Roaming and waiting to pounce when he wins a game

Thanks Champ.

Britt to the left edge over Ray Ray after Stimpson go hooked?

Is an example of Pay's completly defensive mind set.

Lewis is a natural centre. Had been playing there for two years in reserves. Was to small but now has bulked up. Would strengthen defence out wide and can pass... to smith who isnt a centre's bulldog Meany to his natiral position....full back Dwz wont catch carona....cant catch anything. Put glue on his hands and put him on the wing...where he belonged in the first place. Wakes and Avo good pairing. Deano has some real sleepless nights ahead of him

Lewis for Katoa next week is such an obvious change...

Unfortunately Pay is brain dead

Yeah but he probably just had a bump in the shitter

 

[wendog33]

Pay just can't grasp the flow of the game, and when to substitute to influence the game.

Can't work out who to pick in their correct positions or give them a gameplan to score any points.

Why is their handling so bad? Too fatigued from excellent defence?

Too many small similar forwards. No effective dummy half. Pick Katoa..can he be any worse? Probably kmowing our luck.

The long season got longer (unless Covid-19 can give us a break from it

Problem was that he subbed them waaaay too late. When you keep persisting that a turd will turn into a flower, then you know what is going thru the coaches head!

I wouldn’t mind trying him out at centre

Cronks is another one... He reckons the dogs rush defence will be tough for Thurston and Morgan in tonight's game.

 

[Alexander the Great]

So you didn't switch off with Lewis kikcing the ball dead , missing 2 tackles that lead to tries. Yep that makes sense mate.

I would have switched off when wakham kick the ball dead in the first 10 minutes. You did well to last tbh

I stopped watching TBH. The moment he dropped the ball and was like a pussy when someone rushed out, that was enough for me.

GARBAGE

His not a centre... His a Grimaldi type footballer and if he aint locking up the middle with his tackling than he is nothing but a mid season trade.
