Official Round 9 - Bulldogs vs Dragons Game Day Thread

[Bluebody]

I think the lack of early ball to Averillo is now obviously a big no no. Thanks to CC and Burns, we now know that early ball and backing him up would be a wise move to boost our attacking play.

There were about 8 other players who won us the game before Reynolds lol you Reynolds lovers will mentions him no matter what

And Reynolds haters will just be sad sacks who can’t even admit he played a staring role have some more salt ! Thank you berry much mr sad sack

 

[The DoggFather]

what everyone think about KO today?

He can handle the pace and physicality.

6. KO
7. Burton

14. Brown

The PR stunt off the field.

 

[D.O.W.]

Corruption. Ref has no right to decide the match.
Sin bin should always be sent to the bunker for confirmation to prevent over reaction from referees

Not only did he decide to sin bin for the most ridiculously stupid act that at best only warranted a penalty, he also gave them a six again to make sure of it… what the fck did we do to deserve this amount of bias bullsh!t??

Break out game for Avo
That’s all he has to do

Fkn shades of Renouf 92 GF tries

100% that was renouf all over again.
He did the same against south's in that first try that game.

Kyle was not giving him good ball! CC mentioned that a few weeks ago.. that Avo needs to get the ball more.

First game with Flanagan out and he gave the coach what he asked for.

Jake "renouf" averillo

He was about middle
Of the pack for influencing the result. About 7-9th best in the team. That’s not hating , it’s just not deserving of the top 3

CIro would be having a quiet smirk at Hook's expense!

That's a very gusty win.. Great effort and heart shown by the team

And we did very well to overcome bullsh*t sin binning of Wadell. Really glad we didn't drop our heads. As you said - very gutsy win.

Played with confidence, great composure. That first ball he got was hospital pass

Yeah, Averillo burnt Sloan big time.

And not once but twice.

 

[Bluebody]

Can’t believe Waddell grubbered for himself and scored

Waddell has been a different player this season - has cut out the rubbish errors and conceding penalties in his past! Now he has shown he can execute and play eyes up footy - hmmm - I wonder where this confidence can take him.

 

[NPC83]

I wonder if CC brings Pele onto the bench next week. Looks like Oki is a lock for versatility so it might be out of Hughes & Pele for the last spot.

Today was all about settling in, got involved in defence
[/QUOTE

Been out all day. Looking forward to watching the game.

 

[WillieMasonFan]

I feel for Casey. Would like to see him as 1st grade standard, but he is definitely not there yet. He sometimes does some nice things in NSW Cup but you just can't make that many mistakes/bad decisions in 1st grade and get away with it.

Thanks from an Easts supporter for slaying the Queens. Well done.

I’m overseas at the mo and didn’t see game. Sounds like an epic win. Based on the Game stats I see, am not sure how we won that. But win it, we did esp. with so many troops down.
Sounds like I need to eat humble pie over Reynolds. Seems like he was well worth his spot.
Big metres from Avo, Perham and others. Under TBaz we were often lucky to see any player exceed 100m. Much different now under CC/Potter. Go Dogs.

Now we know the trick with Burns, he needs to play with one leg. Amazing game, interchange with Averillo when setting up both tries.
Reynolds did not have any tries assist but he took the line on & commited the defense before any inside passes. Forwards were able to make much more ground. Flannagan take not.
Edwards shown today he has much potential. There are lot of young kids that will are going to get better.
Congratulation, Ockenbor & Perham was surprising good.

Only weak point was Alamoti & Casey combination. I do not to be critical to our young players, but I he is struggling in FG. His speed can effect his defense & also his attack he had half chances. He has a great passing game, so can see him developing as a lock forward. Interesting when Kiraz is back whether Burns is dropped. On today's performance it would be hard.

Hook doesn't rate CC. But when CC beats him, Hook becomes a sook.
