Official Team List Round 15 v Tigers + Match Discussion

[Bulldogsteve]

Probably so, but it puts how Brisbane dealt with the Haas issue in perspective. Few clubs show the staunch act works. Hell, it may not in the long run, but they nipped his request for a renegotiation in the bud quickly and it seems to have blown over. He's not playing though, so he can't tank.

Luciano was Gone next year anyway, tigers can’t make the 8 so use the spot to promote a junior for next year

It will be interesting to see how we back up the performance against parra this week.. if we can build a bit of momentum and gain some confidence the last half of the season we play a 4 bottom 8 teams plus the bye ..hopefully we can get a couple more wins to finish of the season on a high note . We seem to be better in attack under potter and our defense against parra was the best I’ve seen in a long time

Way I see it, now everyone knows what they can do, we want to see that every week.

More importantly, the boys know what they can do, massive confidence boost. Parra didn't have an off day, we FORCED them to play shit.

They knew all Parra had was line balls (more forward than line), inside passes and spreading it wide because they couldn't go through our middle. We shut them down.

They put the origin forwards on show.

It was abit of both I reckon. Parra didnt 100% turn up for the game but we played them into playing worse. Tpj seemed to put the fear in them. And the boys like Burton and schoup rubbed it in their faces which effected them more. We need to keep that same energy every week. I expect a win this week but I'm still not 100% confident we will.

 

[Dog4life77]

I'll play along...

He signed with the tigers and the contact said he can't play against us and he will join them next week?

That’s my thought..yeah

Parra did 100% turn up for the game, they told me. Actually brad Arthur even said it himself they were up for it all week and on game day…..

Don't forget Waddell doing an Oscar performance dive to deny Parra's first try & then Averillo's interception try to deny Parra a second try was a huge turnaround. Dogs have never been that lucky all year to get off to a flyer.

Last time we expected to win was against a clown raiders side with Elliot at hooker and look what happened lol.. we have yet to show consistency, hope we can show it this week

Because Baz

 

[KiwiDog7]

Doueihi back from injury.
Hopefully he has a slow start back and we run over top of him.

Hopefully he non existent like Sivo was for Eels

 

[KiwiDog7]

I didn't see the game, but did read that in a discussion about his immediate release. So even if he was still there he may not have been a threat, but really, if we play anywhere near as well as Monday, we should have no problem accounting for tigs. I don't rate them at all. They don't have many threats. Douehi is their biggest probably and it's his first game back in ages. Hastings is so overrated it's hilarious. He touches the ball a lot. Big deal, it's what you do with it that matters. I did see the highlights of their last game now that I think of it and one thing I remember is him clutching at Aloai (I think) with a pathetic attempt to stop him scoring.

Leilua tanked to cement his release

 

[CrittaMagic69]

Hopefully he non existent like Sivo was for Eels

Apparently he's going to be playing lock lol

Agree, the only try Parra scored was due to Schoupp jamming in unnecessarily and made Moses mind up for him to throw the face ball in the hole Schoupp should’ve been covering

Taking up J cooks first grade spot

Taking up J cooks first grade spot

I love the pettiness on here

 

[surfdog]

Is it just me or does Justin Pascoe always look like he has had a massive night and slept in the bins outside of a 7 eleven. How is this bloke a CEO

 

[billy beane]

I hope TPJ doesn't play too much on the edges where he is wasted. He is much better used in the middle like against Parra getting amongst their forwards with agression and using his offloads.

He has to considering the makeup of our bench.

Should give it to them but always tread warily, use it as preparation to take on the Sharks, if we beat them then you are talking serious.

 

[BMOC]

When was the last time we won back to back? Would be awesome to get the win against the tigers . Come on dogs , you have got this. I hope they turn up again to play some footy

 

[TOTTO]

Luciana in limbo at the moment apparently cowboys have salary cap issues.
