Round 7 - Eels vs Broncos

[mitch222]

One step forward last week
And 12 steps backwards this week
This team is so fucking soft
One decision goes against us and they fold every fucking time
Give Kennedy some more game time kev, at least he runs with purpose and wants to be there

Diabolical... Entire spine needs to go

 

[winslow_wong]

We’Ve shown that if we just play hard and direct up the middle we can hang with teams. Croft’s kicking game is non-existent.

Dearden has had a few games to show some promise, I haven’t seen anything. I think we need to bite the bullet and rebuild the spine. Let Dearden go and cop it if he turns out good. The only thing keeping Isaako in the team is that there’s no other options and no one else can kick goals. If Niu shows anything he should dissolve Isaako.

I can see some of Kev’s tactics coming through and some things are improving but the roster is a mess.

Bringing Miflord back is not the answer. Don’t let the loss fool you to thinking it is. If the club watches tonight and still thinks we don’t need to buy a half I give up.

You don’t need a dedicated goal kicker if you’re not scoring tries. That’s all isaako is and we need to get rid of him along with the rest of the spine.

Man i feel for big Payne, he deserves better than this team.
He busts his ass every week and has to carry a lot of dead weight.

The single person I’m most disappointed in is myself, for actually believing for a moment that we might see more of what we produced last week.
That’ll teach me.

 

[Mister Wright]

Positives:
- It’s over
- We didn’t concede 50

Negatives:
- Everything else

Pretty much. I was thinking 70, 10mins into the 2nd half.

 

[broncsgoat]

Anyone got any GF tix for sale. We are golden baby!

You're 6 & 1 but you've played us twice so it doesn't really count.

 

[Whatisgoingon]

51 missed tackles and 16 errors!

 

[Huge]

I don't think we need any new players but we do need to work on some of ours. It's dumb leaving a prop unused until the 61 st minute. We should work with our strength. Start Lodge and Kennedy, use him up earlier. He runs hard and straight.

I don't blame Croft or Dearden but out wide we need polish.

 

[vertigo]

How many more years of this.

So fundamentally dumb. ****.

 

[WASSHHH]

We were terrible. Have no shape, no set plays, no spine and no idea, which means we have no hope most of the time.

But boy oh boy, how Moses wasn’t sin binned for his slowing down on Farnworth is a mystery and was an absolutely massive turning point in the game.

Instead of possibly scoring, we let one in and then turn to shit, barely holding onto the ball thereafter.

 

[mitch222]

Where is Justin Hodges and why isn’t he teaching these centres how to defend

 

[the_next]

54 missed tackles.

If you look for truth, you may find comfort in the end; if you look for comfort you will not get either comfort or truth only soft soap and wishful thinking to begin, and in the end, despair.

Herbie and Coates were terrible tonight

 

[BroncosFever]

How depressing, even the shit teams in the comp over the years have the 1 fluke win in them

For us, we dead set haven't beaten a team that wasn't the Bulldogs since Round 2 of last season, I don't even know what Kevvie can do about it either
