Just forfeit. 

Bad luck there Dman, Tigers / Cows was a bizarre game... I thought the Cows would win golden point,

Rag tag BOF will win after tonight's game... let's hope it's a sign for the Dogs...

Ahh... that's gambling for ya... irrespective golden point is shit... 
if we have to have it, golden try or five each way for penalties and field goals...
just another way the NRLol gives an out to refs... GP = whistle in pocket junk time farce farce...

Seriously let's hope the dogs emulate villi... wooden spooners knocking off premiers...
screw you villi...

It's just so typical of NRLol and ARLolC... the fans want a change to GP.., and these fvcking morons are looking at a 17 team comp and double jeopardy 6-10 finals...
wankers...

#todd&comustgo...
#dismantethearlc...

Seems someone has had a dose of Marki-itis 

Dman’s went off way too early.... Laid the smacketh down on my team of Immortals & Tigers win to screw him over even further


Its only Friday night & you’ve already raised the white flag Dman.... 

How about #DismantleCh9NRLCoverage

My god Lockyer, Thurston & Thaiday are just putrid...

I would not say I'm confident, but our 2019 team is more competitive than the 2008 team.
We need to get it together for 80 mins, and hope that the Roosters are a bit off.

So Gus is your God?

The Hawks had 1 job to do tonight and be not as the pathetic as the Canterbury Bulldogs but nooooooooo....

They had to take it to a whole new low didnt they.....

I need to get myself a new sport....all my teams are falling apart.

Found the problem ....

Hawks were going ok a few years back... forget AFL try EPL soccer..... any team except West Ham and Villa.

The difference between both wooden spoon years is that in 2008 we knew we reached our nadir and the following season we had a whole heap of new players coming (kimmorley, jmoz, Ennis, hannan, stagg, Eastwood, Goodwin).

This year we will likely get the spoon again but there is no big turnaround for 2020. Could be back to back spoons.....

It's not all bad I suppose....LFC did win the champions league....and they are my fallback team while QPR is not in EPL....

I might have to start watching motor racing.....

Nah, I think I prefer watching Hawks and Dogs in their horror seasons than that....

Motor racing is boring watch, but F1 is ok live...

We don't know the line up for 2020.
I am guessing that we finish 3-4 places higher than 2019. Slight better squad, young players more experienced, a bit more kuck. Players playing foe contracts.

F1?

I think I'd rather vomit in my mouth and swallow it.

You'd certainly hope so.
But as I said last year....
Every team is looking to improve from the previous year. If we improve 5% but everyone improves 8%, we can still run last.

Even then sun shines on a dogs ass done days... ;;)

will let let you share thd stage with your spoon while I take the trophy...

Dman like Sportsbet is paying out early this round.. 15 all my friend...

Hockey would tear these guys a new one...

F1 is not a sport...
if it is I retired 6 years ago and took hearhcote rd instead of M5..,.

oh and e-sports... bwahahahahah...

Hickey was great until he got a back injury at some stage in 2008.

Corey Hughes was the 2nd best player in the 2008 season, that's my closing argument.....

Marki brought it up, it takes skill and courage.... not sport in the conventional sense.

In terms of teameork, fitness, skill and courage real mountain climbing is the ultimate test in terms of life and death, get it wrong someone dies, get it very wrong you all die.

By real I mean unassisted and no oxygen.

It is dead boring to watch as are many other sports.

Roosters    Sharks   ,   Knights
with the titans only team in our
sights the dogs edging closer to
the spoon , gee i hope we can get
a couple of more wins just for
pride & not win the spoon

I had a soft spot for Jarrod. Similar to Dogzilla. Underated most of the time, not fit enough but had good ball skills. I guess he didn't want it bad enough.  Why don't these guys Agents give them more assistance to realise they potential.

A CB junior so his career should forever be celebrated.

I think the back injury stuffed him up, he was making 30 tackles a game and great runs in attack with offloads etc, for 2-3 weeks before the injury, by far the best form of his career.....

When he came back after injury he seemed to lack mobility and fitness, some of the worst form of his career.....

I think his brief patch of good form was too brief for most fans to remember, it was in the 2008 season when we were losing most games, I remember it clearly, him getting injured was the straw that broke the camels back, we went from being poor to being a total rabble.

It was only Bobcat, Corey and Hickey keeping the team competitive, 2 blokes could not do it all on their own...   I've never seen so many useless passengers in a NRL side..... while it is faint praise, this years side is much better....

Thanks you two...
Was trying to erase that period from my mind and 11 years later those memories come flooding back!

What is wrong with you 2?
Are things that bad we have to reminisce worse times just keep things in perspective?

Sorry  .... I'm trying very hard to forget that year, believe me... 

I'm just saying we are a chance of winning the odd game here and there this season.....

Especially with DWZ on board and the recent improvement in JMK, our spine and backs are not that bad.. the forwards need to aim up and we need to cut out the dumb mistakes... do that we should be a chance most games .... OK I know they haven't shown signs of doing it... for more than 15 mins a game.

The Tigers / Cows game summed up the NRL for IMO, most weeks the opposition gives you a chance, you just need to be good enough to take it...
Then when the momentum shifts, you need to be good enough to defend 2-3 back-to-back sets ....
The team that takes their chances, minimises mistakes. and  makes the effort in defence usually wins...  

I'm not kidding when I say reserve grade team plays with more enthusiasm, variation and line speed than firsts. 

I know it's not as intense as NRL, but the mentality and approach is correct. 

Complete cleanout of the team is needed to take us forward. New coach also needed.
