Round 3 Bulldogs V Broncos - Team Lists and Discussion Thread

[Mr. Ditkovich]

You blokes firming up in the pants over Ava are kidding yourselves. He’s a reserve grader.

So are some of our other forwards judging by the last couple of games.

You can’t tell me he’ll do worse than Napa’s 37 metres last week.

Mate I watched the reserve grade game on the weekend and apart from Britt I didnt really think anyone did enough to make their way into the side

I watched it too. Thought Ava had a pretty strong game

7. Brandon Wakeham
8. Avagalu Seumanufagai

Low key i want to see Lewis at lock in FG with Wakeham and flanno in the halves, and Averillo in the centres with meaney taking DWZ's spot. With Deitz on the bench instead of Katoa.

Do we need two hookers

No absolutely not. Unfortunately we don’t even have one...

 

[flamebouyant]

We need quicker play the balls to get the pack moving. Napper has a snooze on his back every time he hits it up.

Our play the ball speed was significantly quicker then penrif last week.

 

[Bazildog]

FMD.. Tuesday 4pm is really starting to get a very familiar feel about it.

 

[Howie B]

It’s because most people here don’t use their brains before they post. Broncos have been terrible the first two games this year, they were also terrible last year. How are we “no chance” according to some? Geez

They were ok against Parra mate and that formline has been proven .

But we are definitely a chance if :

1. We get at least some sort of fair go from Cummins ; and

2. Our forwards don’t let Pangai Jnr sodomise us like he did last year.

If either of the above happens we are 0-3

 

[Horse]

Do we need two hookers

Depends, who’s we?

 

[Horse]

He's joking this time, last time he was serious tho.

Dunno about that mate. He’s been pretty adamant about this conspiracy going on around us not being awarded pens.

 

[flamebouyant]

We hardly have an embarrassment of riches in the depth department and we’re two games in ffs chopping and changing combinations non stop does nothing to help this early on give some blokes some time to prove their worth and put the next best bloke into replace injured/suspended players

This i agree with. Theres no point constantly changing it up, unless there is someone banging the door down. The fact Mounties got pumped doesn't really give us that option.

If theres a winnable game this year, this should be it.

 

[Bulldogz82]

Looks like we got cumstains as ref again to continue the raping of 6 agains and penalties from round 1

 

[Bulldogz82]

The Broncos have not won a game since beating us last year, what a embarrasment to us and them if same happens this year

 

[boggie23]

Can’t wait until we stop seeing Lewis, katoa, Marshall king, napa, hoppa, Jackson, Britt in the squad.

if we rid ourselves of these deadwood (some are on 550k+ and we replace them with solid first grade players then we will improve greatly).

It’s not a first grade quality team unfortunately.

 

[Bazildog]

I agree and actually had this game and round 1 as our only wins in the first 5. I have never tipped or bet against the dogs but I certainly won’t have them in any multi this week.

I am trying really hard to buy into Barrett mania...I was never a fan before his appointment but was more than willing to get on the bus to support the club and still am. But fark me, the opening 2 rounds have been depressing and I am struggling to see miracle improvement.

 

[Headmix]

I suggest we throw it wide early in the tackle count and try to run around Broncos big forwards for the first 40 mins.. we can't match them for 80mins trying to go through the middle.

 

[dogwhisperer]

FMD Yous turn so fast lmao

Cause they look sooooo brittle mate! Paper thin defense. And I’m usually very patient and always give the benefit of the doubt, but they got nothing!

They actually looked better under Pay for some reason.

 

[dogluva]

My heart sank when I heard about the injury to RFM and even further when I read that we have Ben Cummins as our referee. I could not back us to win the game nor the penalty count.......

 

[Headmix]

Walters will know he has the size up front...its the only advantage he has really. If its a dry track I'm expecting a dogs win

Dogs 1-12 @ $3.50 looks a great bet Baz.

I reckon it’ll round out my Slipper Day fill up beautifully.
