LIVE GAME Magic Round v Sea Eagles

[innsaneink]

The words are definitely relevant, but always thought the song sucked lol.

Crap song
Crap footy

Just saw today’s score as I have been riding the Great Dividing Range on the Adventure bike . I just heard this song today and thought these words in the song sums up our season this year quite well

Terry Jacks Seasons in the Sun


“We had joy. we had fun we had seasons in the sun But the hills that we climbed were just seasons out of time “

More like "We had joy, we had fun with our egos up our bums But the hills that we climbed were a bloody waste of time".

I've spent years, since I was a kid changing the words to that song in so many different ways 😆

Can't think of a time when panthers were given the wrong end of referring. not being fascious , genuinley dont recall seeing a game like that which i believe is part of the built in bias to top tier teams by refs. If Cleary challenges that strip call there is no way that it doesnt go the way of panthers.

They lost the penalty count just last weekend in Canberra 6-0 and still put 30 on them in front of their home crowd.
Blaming the ref is for the weak.

 

[Dr_Ice]

Once his time with us is done...his time is done.
There will be no nrl fullback for him

I thought we had decided that as he has not been playing fullback in reserve grade for quite a while.

 

[Speed2burn]

Really great team. Beating a team missing their top 5 players by 30. Hand them the comp now.

Nobody cares who we are missing unfortunately, we are getting belted on the scoreboard and that’s all the ammo they need

Who else is putting money on the bye next week? 🤔

Such a shame we’re at this place where these posts come out again 😞

I was waiting for a "at least they didnt get 50 on us" comment

Im worried as someone already mentioned we will.be emotionally psycholgically beaten even when/if we get all our players back...
Looking like a flash in the pan yet again

As crazy as it sounds, 46 points was a good result in some ways. They went off the boil in the last 15-20. Could have easily put on 60 if the chances they created stuck.

 

[innsaneink]

Yeah a few out Saabs way if they stuck wouldve made it even more embarrassing

Depends on who is the ref and also the in the bunker.

Yeah that was me who posted that thought. I worry about the effect these blowouts will have on the team as a whole. Though Benji is staying positive, I guess he has to.

 

[mtd#2]

Of course, but it didn’t.
The only reason he did it was because there was a threat.

I dont believe it was enough of a threat to warrant a sin bin, no more than one 100m away.

That's the only place we know other than a few weeks at the start of this season. We love these posts and specialise in them with many decades of experience, unfortunately.

We’re sitting just outside the 8, nearing the halfway point of the season. I’m sure he’d have taken that if it was offered to him at the start of the season. You’ve only gotta look at the Knights. Got off to a flyer, then got crippled with injuries for a while, and lost a few. Then got players back and got on a roll again. No reason why we can’t. We’ll have a couple back after the bye which will help. The only ones who won’t be there will be Doueihi and Sam. I love Sam, but Doueihi is the one who will we still really be missing. Imo, Benji has to bite the bullet and and throw Latu in at 7. What’s the hold up?

Next match it's Luai vs Galvin.
If there's ever a match Luai and the team need to get up for, not for themselves, but for Benji, its this one...
The week after is the Panthers, so if we are any chance at all, it has to be on the back of a win against the dogs.

Absolutely.. Benji has to give latu a run in the halves .. no excuses

Forget Luai...yes the team whoever it is need to find something extra for the Dogs

Luais needed a big one for weeks...it doesnt exist

The ONLY upside to the last 3:weeks?

We won't lose any players to origin this year.

Gee those close losses to Souths & Brisbane are really costing the team now.

No the handful of close ones don't cost us. The 40+ scorelines cost you. You can't count the Broncos result then overlook the Eels match.

Even the good teams lose a bunch of close games. Teams that are highly competitive every week generally play finals footy.

The teams that allow big scores posted more than once or twice - they are the highest risk of missing the finals.

 

[jirskyr]

Yes!! Should have had the surgery, now gone for the season!! Again nice decision Benji

That's so silly, the medics make those calls not the coach.
