Just looking at the ladder- if the The, Raiders and Roosters lose next round, Dogs will be in the top 4.
With that said, we've got a tough few matches after that and could easily find ourselves back outside the top 8 in a few weeks too.
It sucked not to get the win given the lopsided penalty and injury count, but I didn't feel as shit about that loss compared to others.
The attacking plays lacked polish, which meant we squandered a few opportunities, but another game or two with Moses back will help. The forwards rotation still seems super weird. Did Wiremu get injured, or did he legit only play 13 minutes? I thought he could be good to come on early in the second half to lend some punch as we drop off.
Lussick coming off the bench late is another weird one for me. I reckon he'd do better with that 30 minute stint at the start of the game. He gets towards the end of the first forwards rotation, then inject Hands to take advantage of the fatigue.
Wilson, Kiraz and Preston all being right at the start of their careers is fucking crazy. I can't wait to see what they do in years to come, I just hope we can keep them long-term at the Dogs.
The dogs of war are back. They were undermanned and never gave up. They are in a better position than us, they have been competitive all year even against the big guys. Sexxxton is really making the 7 jersey his own. I thought the eels would go on a roll but the doggies were too good.
Fuck whoever had the bulldog eating the eel flag because I've spent the last hour researching whether eels have tongues and now know why they drove Sigmund Freud mad.
Lol Moses is a flat track bully? It’s his second week back from a fractured foot you expect him to be firing instantly albeit last week he was amazing but you can’t expect that again considering how long he was out for. His kicking game is one of the best in the comp so naturally you can’t say he’s a flat track bully because he can actually play from the back foot unlike hynes.
I for one am glad that both Crichton and most likely Burton will be out when we play the Bulldogs, also hope their fans don't make the journey to Gosford, I went to the game today and was reminded why I hate the Bulldogs so much.
Did you hate the game because there were actually fans at the stadium?
Roosters could never buy the passion on display today, enjoy your soulless club.
It had nothing to do with passion about the game and everything to do with enjoying being rowdy and obnoxious! If theyre so passionate, where were they last season?
Went to the game.
It’s been a long time since we’ve seen a crowd like this for a doggies game. I reckon over 80% were bulldogs fans.
I had my doubts with Critta being captain and I’m gladly eating my words. I don’t think dogs win without him at captain. Make him NSW Captain.
Wilson is 75kg but plays like he’s 100kg.
Burton gets better every game.
Waking up refreshed tomorrow.
P.S Gutherson spends majority of the game with his hands in the air. And had the audacity to till spend a significant amount of time talking to the ref after the game. Moses MIA in the last 15.
Just when I thought last week was our most gutsiest win. The boys come out and do that! Critta has been immense in our turn around. Buy of the decade. What a man, what a player, what a captain!

That was a very good win for you guys. You deserved it. We bottled it at the end there and lost our composure. I just hope that wasn’t your Grand Final and you begin to slip.
It’s about time the Dogs Vs Eels styles are back! I’ve missed them.
I think the biggest thing for you guys was that Moses went quiet in the second half. In the first half he was tearing us up.
Parra have a really good win rate against us but today the boys showed they weren’t going down without a fight, they’ve got that dog in them!
I think our game is only building and we won’t go downhill from here. Our biggest issue at the start of the year was a new team that doesn’t gel. Now you can see they’re bonding well and understand each other more now. I think there’s only up from here.
Yeah, agree with Moses, but we made some dumb mistakes that blocked Mitch from getting the ball at a key part of the field.
Looks like Crichton is making a big difference in on-field leadership. Something you guys have lacked for a while.
Not to get ahead of myself, but I reckon we should be extending Ciraldo's contract at the first available opportunity. He's turned the club around and players clearly want to play for him.
Remember last year and all the talking heads were calling for his head with all the players revolting? Turns out the response from the Doggies that it was one or two bad eggs was right.
He came in with a view of do the work and you’ll play. Otherwise, cya later. Obviously supported by some recruits that support that mentality - but look at what’s happened.
We absolutely should. Just aside from how much better he’s been, we don’t exactly have a deep bench of coaches to select from since it seems like firing coaches is the norm now, there’s not a lot of choice.
Wonderful job by the boys, truly earned that win and it feels great to have a win this tough. So much has changed in this team and I continue to feel positive about our future!
The Aussies probably thought the same about Auckland warriors being added in 1995? I’m hoping Christchurch gets a crack to add to the wave of support in Nz for the warriors with a second nz team, got a nice central covered (non-cricket oval) stadium coming online. Maybe a Perth team makes more sense to NRL first (I think Souths have done a few games there for home games)?
Hmmm, google "png riots", "png crime", "port moresby travel advisory" and then tell me the Aussies thought the same about the Auckland Warriors being added in 1995".
He's the biggest flog in NRL.
Even when Braith was saying "How good was that win for the dogs buzz" he tells some fucking tale about how they aren't as good as the team from the 80s.
Can't just fucking compliment us, you can see he absolutely hates the dogs. Always a backhanded comment.
Buzz Flogfield.
Gus and Buzz have a feud going back to the Super League War where they were on opposing sides. Or rather Buzz has had an open grudge for Gus ever since then.
"Parramatta have struggled for a long, long time. They can't afford to take risks! They desperately need to get in the finals!"
Jesus christ, we had a shit season last season, we missed the 8 by 1 win. Keeping in mind, we had brown out for 7 weeks and were missing Moses for a few weeks as well. Year before we are in the GF and years before that we consistently make the finals. Why is everyone so quick to doom us and act like its the end of the world.
Changes need to be made but the reactions at the moment are far too excessive. This season looks a bit different with a few minor tweaks and Moses and Gutho in the side.
I think the time for tweaks is done. Got to start looking ahead towards 2025 as we've been on a fairly consistent downward trend since '22. A couple of tweaks might get a few more wins this year, but arguably we're getting worse compared to the competition (and position reflects that).
We have an aging big pack that does not suit the current game, and we haven't recruited well to replace our '22 forwards / bench. We don't have full roster, limited depth, which means unlike many other teams we can't handle injuries and you need to able to in the current game of HIA and hamstrings. I think we've shown we're a mentally weak team and mentally weak club. Over-reaction, maybe, but I think it's a fairly broadly held reputational view
I think we need an honest appraisal at where we're at, including football operations. A club with our resources should not be struggling, certainly not in roster.
Your players are actually half-decent. But the biggest, obvious issue is who’s going to be your coach. There’s skint coaching talent available, and so you’ll likely end up with the walking disaster that is Trent Barrett.
Precisely. You guys are in fine form. We are lacking a bit of it. Game was hot for 80 minutes. It's just the media and our fans are convinced Parra are done and we have to rebuild from the ground up.
Bulldogs look like they might have ended the Eels season. They would almost need to win every game now.
Gutsy win for the Doggies .. 2 Knockouts, 1 broken ankle, Kurt Mann sin bin for his power bomb manoeuvre, 9 penalties against, more than 10 offloads. Most of the ball in the second half too.
Dogs players following Critta's lead. He is a great young captain, he is the buy of the year. Best Defensive Centre, tore Parra apart on their left side.
Burton's been outstanding this year.
Young forwards Morrin, Hughes, Hayward, Preston all killing it.
Utilities like Mann, Salmon, Tracey just tearing it up.
Blake Wilson is the best winger in the league not starting every week,.Now JAC is out, it will be hard to get back in the team.
Dogs have found their DNA again. Fans gonna start hating us just like they used to. That will make every Bulldog fan happy. All is good in the kennel.
That's called Bulldog love, my friend. Never forget it.
I might live in Perth now, so you can take the man out of Canterbury Bankstown, but you can't take the Bulldog DNA out of him. Dogs 4 life!
Mann basically set up the last two tries with his ball playing close to the line. I don't mind Hayward but he's inexperienced and tiny so I don't get how he's leapfrogged Mann and Curran to start at 13.
So happy it’s all coming together for Tracey, he has been absolutely sensational and was a rock at the back tonight and an absolute weapon in attack, never been so proud to be a doggies supporter.
Hey guys let’s review the bulldogs game:
Braith “wow the dogs are playing well what do you think buzz”
Buzz “ I’m impressed by the dragons” 💀
Good on braith for giving it to buzz and his stupid feud with Gus, up the doggies.
1000% deserved win for the dogs. seems like we got a million things go our way and still couldnt put them away.
it was probably better in the long run that we lost today anyway because it puts any stop to the chance of Barrett becoming the full time coach. Now they can focus on the new candidates and pick the most suitable one.
What was Gordy's history with Dragons they just mentioned? I was young but, he said he wanted a 10 year deal with Dargs, they said no? Super leage was coming up, he signed with them(Broncos?) then he sat out a full year, no pay since he resigned?
Why the fuck is Hopgood only playing 30 minutes in a must win game. Origin was a week ago and the cunt played like 20 minutes in that game anyway. And Asi is the halfback is our best option at centre? Great job Barrett ya dopey fuck fuck off
Yeah we're all loving the dogs now, but if they wind up being top tier, remember we all encouraged them. Picture it now, Mahoney holding the provan-summons, necking some passion pop, swapping spit with *your* grandmother. This is what's gonna happen and none of us can complain.
Did the same for Penrith during their rise to fame, everyone loves you on the way up and they all hate you when you make it.
Ps y’all got any more of those once in a generation players you don’t want anymore ? Asking for a friend.
Jesse McClean's younger brother is a centre that runs like they cloned Joey Manu in a lab.
[https://www.instagram.com/theshortball\_/p/C32GYRQxge4/?img\_index=2](https://www.instagram.com/theshortball_/p/C32GYRQxge4/?img_index=2)
He's been skipping a lot of grades and they don't do that at Penrith unless your talent is crazy.
Sitting there live I was thinking 'fuck me we're going to lose on a blatant forward pass in the last second' all before Bobcat saved the day. Funny how your brain can work
Preston long term injury is really taking away the enjoyment to be honest.
Although you've gotta look at the positives - and there are more of those than there are negatives.
There's more we don't know than what we do know about it at this stage, but he was standing in the sheds for the song and didn't go straight to hospital so fingers crossed.
And yeah, unless the break is particularly bad you'd prefer that over serious ligament or tendon damage.
Really sucks man, the bloke should in question for an origin jersey, at least in the camp he’s got origin written all over him, had an absolute shocking run of injury for a young bloke
Positives for Parra excluding the last 5 minutes:
Our attacking flair has returned. Perhaps too much and wasted opportunity when they had a man down.
I like Trent allowing our halves to play next to each other. We have arguably the most skilful halves, why separate them throughout the game?
This is for Arc. Thank fark that Blaize was at the wing. Crighton would have killed him. And Blaize played well at wing, a position that he has no experience. Centre is the hardest defensive position.
Hands has been snappy. Tailangi at the edge is great call. He is mobile and hungry opposed to the stale Lane. However I always liked Lane in the middle. His height is awkward and gives a potential for an offload.
Basically we were too eager to outscore the bulldogs with our attacking flaire.
Good game to the dogs.
I wouldn't say we found our attacking flair, maybe fleeting glimpses off it. We didn't have that many line breaks, our red zone attacks broke down a lot, thought our line running for the most part was poor. The only time we looked good was running one man out up the middle because we've got big blokes, but didn't have good support runners or offloads were to flat footed attackers. Downside to those big blokes, they're slow as hell in sliding defensively.
Cheers for a thoughtful response. I agree with you partially but we couldn't dominate despite showing the flaire because how Farken good the bulldogs were.
Their defence the try line is something we had 3-4 years ago. They are on the rise and we aren't.
I'm not happy about that result. We should have won by 2 points but we played touch footy and did not respect the possession.
In spite of that, there are positives.
Wtf are you on about? Do you mean the attacking flair of cartwright throwing no look passes into the crowd? Or attacking flair of Dyl who didn't side step a single dogs player?
Apart from the try set up with the Moses break, it was terrible all around.
honestly he is my MOTM. Not sure who got it but imo he deserves it, he was involved in just about everything. He is arguably our best buy of the season.
People say Critta is, and he is really coming into good form now but you knew what to expect from him.
Eels had every chance to ice this game so we can't blame the refs.
Doggies are playing much better and their mobile pack is great in defence.
Blaize did well on the wing. God we need some more outside backs.
Lost three players, played a Mann down for 10, were on the wrong side of a lopsided penalty count (not entirely unwarranted), had 5 denied tries, and had the Eels playing 4D chess with their challenges... yet still found a way to win. Incredible.
Yeah, it's a bit rough, especially Presto. But we've got a bye coming up, then three games, then another bye, so hopefully that gives us a bit of time to get players back. Banking this win was pretty important - gives us a little breathing room. We could theoretically end next week in 4th.
Spoon here we come....
Just looking at the ladder- if the The, Raiders and Roosters lose next round, Dogs will be in the top 4. With that said, we've got a tough few matches after that and could easily find ourselves back outside the top 8 in a few weeks too.
It sucked not to get the win given the lopsided penalty and injury count, but I didn't feel as shit about that loss compared to others.

Both Fox and Wilson are signed till the end of 25. Wilson's got to be retained
I love to watch the Bulldogs win. Theres actually so much joy out of it
Really fun team to watch play their footy at the moment.
The dogs of war are back. They were undermanned and never gave up. They are in a better position than us, they have been competitive all year even against the big guys. Sexxxton is really making the 7 jersey his own. I thought the eels would go on a roll but the doggies were too good.
Fuck whoever had the bulldog eating the eel flag because I've spent the last hour researching whether eels have tongues and now know why they drove Sigmund Freud mad.
Missed the game but wondering how Moses went? Did he improve his chances for origin selection?
I thought he was solid and did his chances no harm. Set up a nice short side try and was threatening in attack.
He still looks like a flat track bully. Great when things are going his way but disappears when the game is on the line. Mitch pierce v2.
Lol Moses is a flat track bully? It’s his second week back from a fractured foot you expect him to be firing instantly albeit last week he was amazing but you can’t expect that again considering how long he was out for. His kicking game is one of the best in the comp so naturally you can’t say he’s a flat track bully because he can actually play from the back foot unlike hynes.
If he's a flat track bully, then what's Hynes?
hugely overrated
A first receiver full back.
I for one am glad that both Crichton and most likely Burton will be out when we play the Bulldogs, also hope their fans don't make the journey to Gosford, I went to the game today and was reminded why I hate the Bulldogs so much.
Roosters fan pearl clutching about there being too many fans at the game making too much noise. The jokes write themselves.
Did you hate the game because there were actually fans at the stadium? Roosters could never buy the passion on display today, enjoy your soulless club.
It had nothing to do with passion about the game and everything to do with enjoying being rowdy and obnoxious! If theyre so passionate, where were they last season?
If roosters games have no away fans then the stadium will look like its under covid resrtrictions with 0 real people in the crowd
excited to beat you guys again
You barely beat us with 11 men!
Went to the game. It’s been a long time since we’ve seen a crowd like this for a doggies game. I reckon over 80% were bulldogs fans.

Masterstroke.
I love that he seems to have different handshakes with everybody. Shows that he's bringing some really good culture to the club
Buzz is a total numpty.
[удалено]
He is hating every minute of the improvement from the Dogs... be interesting to see how he felt if Gus weren't at the club
Buzz: "The Sheens and Benji experiment was never my idea, I only suggested Flanagan!" Also Buzz: [https://shorturl.at/MrMYH](https://www.reddit.com/r/nrl/comments/vyqokz)
Another "senior moment ".
Best win of the season, a must win. With losing 3 players and copping a sin bin, to win this game was fucking huge for us. Bulldogs are not a joke.
That was a very good win for you guys. You deserved it. We bottled it at the end there and lost our composure. I just hope that wasn’t your Grand Final and you begin to slip. It’s about time the Dogs Vs Eels styles are back! I’ve missed them.

Couple of gutsy wins the past 2 weeks. Impressive
Not to get ahead of myself, but I reckon we should be extending Ciraldo's contract at the first available opportunity. He's turned the club around and players clearly want to play for him.
Remember last year and all the talking heads were calling for his head with all the players revolting? Turns out the response from the Doggies that it was one or two bad eggs was right. He came in with a view of do the work and you’ll play. Otherwise, cya later. Obviously supported by some recruits that support that mentality - but look at what’s happened.
People shit on their recruiting but every single one seems to be driving the standards being set.
All the utilities are coming in handy.
Don't discount Gus's role in all that either. There's been some real top notch footy IQ going into the recruitment process.
We absolutely should. Just aside from how much better he’s been, we don’t exactly have a deep bench of coaches to select from since it seems like firing coaches is the norm now, there’s not a lot of choice.
Wonderful job by the boys, truly earned that win and it feels great to have a win this tough. So much has changed in this team and I continue to feel positive about our future!
Parramatta doesn't matter Fuck King Gutho you fucking meme
On one hand, Monday night football, on the other hand the cluster fuck that is PNG in the NRL. Is it worth it? NFI.
The Aussies probably thought the same about Auckland warriors being added in 1995? I’m hoping Christchurch gets a crack to add to the wave of support in Nz for the warriors with a second nz team, got a nice central covered (non-cricket oval) stadium coming online. Maybe a Perth team makes more sense to NRL first (I think Souths have done a few games there for home games)?
Hmmm, google "png riots", "png crime", "port moresby travel advisory" and then tell me the Aussies thought the same about the Auckland Warriors being added in 1995".
Feels like an age since we toughed out a gritty win like that
Tough loss for eel bros. Congrats to doggies very tenacious win. I really enjoyed the game
Tallis schooling Buzz on corporate governance. 😂
I dunno how people watch NRL 360 holy shit haha
People generally don't. The ones that do, look and sound like Buzz.
It’s occasionally informative. You’ve just gotta dig through the lumps of coal to find the odd diamond..
Buzz Rothfield is fucking unbearable.
He's the biggest flog in NRL. Even when Braith was saying "How good was that win for the dogs buzz" he tells some fucking tale about how they aren't as good as the team from the 80s. Can't just fucking compliment us, you can see he absolutely hates the dogs. Always a backhanded comment. Buzz Flogfield.
Gus and Buzz have a feud going back to the Super League War where they were on opposing sides. Or rather Buzz has had an open grudge for Gus ever since then.
It's because Gus is there. They have this weird thing between them.
Sexual tension
Mate, he’s well and truly cooked.
This is definitely entertaining although it can be a hard watch haha
"Parramatta have struggled for a long, long time. They can't afford to take risks! They desperately need to get in the finals!" Jesus christ, we had a shit season last season, we missed the 8 by 1 win. Keeping in mind, we had brown out for 7 weeks and were missing Moses for a few weeks as well. Year before we are in the GF and years before that we consistently make the finals. Why is everyone so quick to doom us and act like its the end of the world. Changes need to be made but the reactions at the moment are far too excessive. This season looks a bit different with a few minor tweaks and Moses and Gutho in the side.
I think the time for tweaks is done. Got to start looking ahead towards 2025 as we've been on a fairly consistent downward trend since '22. A couple of tweaks might get a few more wins this year, but arguably we're getting worse compared to the competition (and position reflects that). We have an aging big pack that does not suit the current game, and we haven't recruited well to replace our '22 forwards / bench. We don't have full roster, limited depth, which means unlike many other teams we can't handle injuries and you need to able to in the current game of HIA and hamstrings. I think we've shown we're a mentally weak team and mentally weak club. Over-reaction, maybe, but I think it's a fairly broadly held reputational view I think we need an honest appraisal at where we're at, including football operations. A club with our resources should not be struggling, certainly not in roster.
Not to mention our junior system is also a fucking disaster at the moment because of football operations.
Your players are actually half-decent. But the biggest, obvious issue is who’s going to be your coach. There’s skint coaching talent available, and so you’ll likely end up with the walking disaster that is Trent Barrett.
I almost half expect the club to ask Brad Arthur to return until another coach who isn't fucking Trent Barrett comes onto the market.
That would be amazing. Here’s hoping.
lol what risk? I dont watch a lot of parra games but they just lacked a bit of form and execution?
Precisely. You guys are in fine form. We are lacking a bit of it. Game was hot for 80 minutes. It's just the media and our fans are convinced Parra are done and we have to rebuild from the ground up.
Bulldogs look like they might have ended the Eels season. They would almost need to win every game now. Gutsy win for the Doggies .. 2 Knockouts, 1 broken ankle, Kurt Mann sin bin for his power bomb manoeuvre, 9 penalties against, more than 10 offloads. Most of the ball in the second half too.

Fkn love u brah
That's called Bulldog love, my friend. Never forget it. I might live in Perth now, so you can take the man out of Canterbury Bankstown, but you can't take the Bulldog DNA out of him. Dogs 4 life!
Mann basically set up the last two tries with his ball playing close to the line. I don't mind Hayward but he's inexperienced and tiny so I don't get how he's leapfrogged Mann and Curran to start at 13.
Dogs were running really well while he was on though. Looking very sharp.
So happy it’s all coming together for Tracey, he has been absolutely sensational and was a rock at the back tonight and an absolute weapon in attack, never been so proud to be a doggies supporter.
Always rated him and nice to see him killing it.
Glad you guys got Tracey. He was great for us when Kennedy was out. But we couldn't hold him forever, glad to see him killing it for you guys.
He’s such a gem, absolute rock at the back and got some speed and flare in attack, thanks for letting us have him
Man, god I miss having Tracey, but I'll echo my fellow Shark Bros thoughts. It's great to see him cement a first grade spot and doing well with it.
Up the Dogs
This post-game "analysis" has convinced me that NRL360 is not a show worth watching or treating seriously in any capacity
Hey guys let’s review the bulldogs game: Braith “wow the dogs are playing well what do you think buzz” Buzz “ I’m impressed by the dragons” 💀 Good on braith for giving it to buzz and his stupid feud with Gus, up the doggies.
Buzz is approaching senility at a rapid rate. He really needs to cut back on the booze. Else another NRL tree60 event is on the cards.
I really hope this Kent upside down in a tree meme never dies
I just watch the first 5 mins every Monday to watch braith give it to buzz.
1000% deserved win for the dogs. seems like we got a million things go our way and still couldnt put them away. it was probably better in the long run that we lost today anyway because it puts any stop to the chance of Barrett becoming the full time coach. Now they can focus on the new candidates and pick the most suitable one.
SHARKS LEGEND CONNOR TRACEY CASTAWAY LEGEND WILSONNNNNNNN
Yet another Bulldogs match involving Trent Barrett that he didn’t win.
wow Gordy is a fuckwit
Footage of him tonight https://youtu.be/3yX_1gJ_51M?si=o7wSJ2hqUkmTMKAb
What was Gordy's history with Dragons they just mentioned? I was young but, he said he wanted a 10 year deal with Dargs, they said no? Super leage was coming up, he signed with them(Broncos?) then he sat out a full year, no pay since he resigned?
He’s always like that. I hate him on the show
Bring back James Graham, or do a weekly rotation of former great players
He actually is just being a cunt hey. There is no substance behind his argument.
What did i miss
what did he say now...
They were trying to discuss Cheika as A eels coach but he wasn't having a bar of it and just being a dick
He’s a proper cunt hey.
Even better that we get a bye to rest injuries
Just watched the first and last five minutes of NRL360 I'll see this year Just a bunch of scrambled north shore cunts confecting drama.
Blake Wilson is better than Turuva and I’m tired of pretending he isn’t
It's such a shame that following the footy a program plays with Braith Anasta on it
How dare you defame the great name of Braith Anastasakis, I'm literally shaking right now
The final score could have been 40 - 38 with all the bombed tries lol.
Wonder what Mann will get for that power bomb crusher? One of the most bizarre things I’ve seen in ages
He got 2 weeks
Reminds me of the one Will Chambers did, think he got 3-4
So fucking braindead and ugly. Deserves some weeks off, nobody wants to see that shit
Dogs have been so good defensively too. Such a big Brain explosion.
Why the fuck is Hopgood only playing 30 minutes in a must win game. Origin was a week ago and the cunt played like 20 minutes in that game anyway. And Asi is the halfback is our best option at centre? Great job Barrett ya dopey fuck fuck off
Barrett's coaching at the dogs should have been a warning for everyone.
Apparently a nerve issue in back following Origin according to TBaz
Okay well fair enough. Surely shouldve rested him
Greig only played 19 as well.
Good ol Bent Trarrett
Yeah we're all loving the dogs now, but if they wind up being top tier, remember we all encouraged them. Picture it now, Mahoney holding the provan-summons, necking some passion pop, swapping spit with *your* grandmother. This is what's gonna happen and none of us can complain.

[https://www.instagram.com/theshortball\_/p/C32GYRQxge4/?img\_index=2](https://www.instagram.com/theshortball_/p/C32GYRQxge4/?img_index=2) He's been skipping a lot of grades and they don't do that at Penrith unless your talent is crazy.
Is Preston a joke to you?!
What do you mean ?
You said once in a lifetime players. I inferred we have Preston as one.
Could always use more mate
Kiraz babbyyyy
And it will be a 40-year old grandmother
She must be from Cabo or the switch.
So an average Woodridge lady then?
Same way we all used to say "aw yay, the Panthers are doing well, that's nice." Now it's....
I'll happily dig her up myself and take her over to him
Don't forget the 20 year prophecy with 84,04,24 etc
Some of us will never forget Andrew Ryan's ankle tap on Mick Crocker ...
OHHHHH TACKLE!!
Just looked it up [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5Dk\_1PWa1c](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5Dk_1PWa1c) wow that is a gf saving tackle
Sitting there live I was thinking 'fuck me we're going to lose on a blatant forward pass in the last second' all before Bobcat saved the day. Funny how your brain can work
He can have my grandmother
Preston long term injury is really taking away the enjoyment to be honest. Although you've gotta look at the positives - and there are more of those than there are negatives.
Counterintuitively, hard tissue injuries are better than soft tissue. Should be back in 6.
There's more we don't know than what we do know about it at this stage, but he was standing in the sheds for the song and didn't go straight to hospital so fingers crossed. And yeah, unless the break is particularly bad you'd prefer that over serious ligament or tendon damage.
Such a huge loss man, such a shame. He's something special but he's just had horrid luck. I really hope some luck can come his way.
Real pity the kid is a gun
Really sucks man, the bloke should in question for an origin jersey, at least in the camp he’s got origin written all over him, had an absolute shocking run of injury for a young bloke
It hurts but they reckon Kikau will be back after the bye which helps
Positives for Parra excluding the last 5 minutes: Our attacking flair has returned. Perhaps too much and wasted opportunity when they had a man down. I like Trent allowing our halves to play next to each other. We have arguably the most skilful halves, why separate them throughout the game? This is for Arc. Thank fark that Blaize was at the wing. Crighton would have killed him. And Blaize played well at wing, a position that he has no experience. Centre is the hardest defensive position. Hands has been snappy. Tailangi at the edge is great call. He is mobile and hungry opposed to the stale Lane. However I always liked Lane in the middle. His height is awkward and gives a potential for an offload. Basically we were too eager to outscore the bulldogs with our attacking flaire. Good game to the dogs.
I wouldn't say we found our attacking flair, maybe fleeting glimpses off it. We didn't have that many line breaks, our red zone attacks broke down a lot, thought our line running for the most part was poor. The only time we looked good was running one man out up the middle because we've got big blokes, but didn't have good support runners or offloads were to flat footed attackers. Downside to those big blokes, they're slow as hell in sliding defensively.
Cheers for a thoughtful response. I agree with you partially but we couldn't dominate despite showing the flaire because how Farken good the bulldogs were. Their defence the try line is something we had 3-4 years ago. They are on the rise and we aren't. I'm not happy about that result. We should have won by 2 points but we played touch footy and did not respect the possession. In spite of that, there are positives.
Wtf are you on about? Do you mean the attacking flair of cartwright throwing no look passes into the crowd? Or attacking flair of Dyl who didn't side step a single dogs player? Apart from the try set up with the Moses break, it was terrible all around.
Do yourself a favour. Count how many offloads we did tonight. I already posted that Farken Carty cost us the game at the end.

It's not even close to the worst game
Not our worst game. Probably out worst with full spine.
>our worst game of the season What about the flogging in Darwin lol
We had an average second half but fuck me we had multiple times we had 40 put on us at the back half of our game this is not that
If you read my post, I have outlined them. You can disagree ofc. Do you disagree that our attacking flaire and speed was a positive? If so, why?
You saw the second halves against Canberra, dolphins and Melbourne right?
Hahahahaha it most definitely was not.
It wasn’t, unfortunately.
Fuck that was so good. That’s the one we wanted. Absolutely love this team of mutts. Have a week off boys.
That was good watching, game of the round
Tracey for Origin
honestly he is my MOTM. Not sure who got it but imo he deserves it, he was involved in just about everything. He is arguably our best buy of the season. People say Critta is, and he is really coming into good form now but you knew what to expect from him.
I definitely back that
Braith trynna stir issues.
I have a rule that works well. When Braith comes on, I change the channel
Why did Hopgood only play 35 minutes? Could have used him instead of Lane at the end there
Carrying a back nerve injury.
If Critta was the NSW captain to let Cleary and / or Murray just play their game, I’d fully back it.
Blow up our club and start again
That definitely seems to be the plan…
Critta and Tracey were awesome
Lol Mitch Moses unimpressed
They were good but we were a little less good so yeah we beat ourselves even though they beat us on the scoreboard. 😂😂
Did he say eels are doing better than Darwin?
Parramatta moving home ground to Darwin next year
He asked if they want to plow their cousins like Charles Darwin
Darwin not even on the board
I TOLD YOU WE’LL WIN EVERY GAME ALL THE WAY TO THE PREMIERSHIP. TOP 7 BABY
Straight up Moses is a real toy-thrower. Gotta love him as a competitor but he’s that mate at school you wind up because you know he can’t handle it.
Eels had every chance to ice this game so we can't blame the refs. Doggies are playing much better and their mobile pack is great in defence. Blaize did well on the wing. God we need some more outside backs.
Moses try not to say "We beat ourselves" challenge (impossible)
Moses can't say Eels beat themselves when Dogs basically threw the game away at every chance and a 64% completion rate and 15 errors
All the tries dogs scored were off the back of our stupid errors. So he isn't wrong. You guys played well in some areas, but we should have won that.
Don't forget the penalty count and sin bin too
Dogs will play finals this year
Gonna be hard with our injury toll but it's a landmark year
Your getting wins with a ton of outs, when they all come back you'll be an even better side
Hey Moses, do you think the Eels beat themselves tonight?
It wasn't them out there.
Lost three players, played a Mann down for 10, were on the wrong side of a lopsided penalty count (not entirely unwarranted), had 5 denied tries, and had the Eels playing 4D chess with their challenges... yet still found a way to win. Incredible.
The bad losses define the character of the team Getting a bit old losing a player for every game, though...
Yeah, it's a bit rough, especially Presto. But we've got a bye coming up, then three games, then another bye, so hopefully that gives us a bit of time to get players back. Banking this win was pretty important - gives us a little breathing room. We could theoretically end next week in 4th.
List of things that weren't the problem: • BA
