Discussion Round 11: Teams & In Game Discussion

[Bermi]

Zerrett going well after a slow start and I noticed on fanFooty that Ridley dropped from 131 to 122.

 

[Lost In The Sky]

C’mon Rankine...

 

[Crabby Skills]

50 POINT SMOTHER FROM McGrath!

 

[Darkie]

Rankine

 

[Peter56]

A good game in the end and probably the right result

 

[Professor]

Scaling will be down tonight by 37 points, CD got too excited at the finish.

 

[BigRuss]

Huge play from McGrath there to save the game. Very, very lucky to get a draw there the Bombers.

 

[Crabby Skills]

Quad

right quad according to the radio

Should've known Zaka is too professional to do a groin over-kicking the ball...

... unlike myself.

 

[Rumbler]

what a crazy finish....McGrath with that clutch smother! too bad no golden point/golden goal extra time like NRL!!

 

[Herbie66]

loving the criticism of Smith on here 😀

not that far behind Greenwood who costs $ 500k + but barely a murmur said

65 to 50 when , I wrote that

I guess the expensive one got a wriggle on

 

[FirstTimer]

Full Time Scores ( Pre Scaled )
Round 11 2020

 

[Dalla]

Rankine very selfish at the end there. Had Lachie Weller running past who would have easily made the distance but chose to go himself. Gotta love the confidence of the kid.

 

[BomberArmy]

McGrath shouldnt have had to do that smother at the end with the HTB decision missed completely..

 

[7/11]

Merrett, Ridley and Rankine combining for 344 points (pre-scaling). Considering I was hoping for a 90 average per player before the game, I'm going to take this one and run.

 

[Rowsus]

Clint Eastwood had a quote for Rankine at the end there:

"Man's got to know his limitations!".

If you are going to run the clock down, when you're kicking from 55m out with scores tied, you better know you can at least score!
Never looked scoring, and potentially cost Gold Coast the win!

Confirmed by himself on the radio after match interview , felt it go , then popped it the last goal

Along with the blatant in the back by Smith, with less than a minute left!

 

[IDIG]

Said the same thing to my mate. Gives that off to Weller and they probably win there. I’m all for him taking responsibility but that would’ve taken a fair kick from him to just make the distance. Reckon he has his time again and he gives it off.

 

[Beijing_Sting]

ok -think I have about 2283... hard to tell as I still have 19 on the field... WOuldn't mind keeping that 19th score

missed the ending. Scaling still to occur too, right?

Cheers

 

[Goodie's Guns]

Not sure what was going on in that last 30 seconds. So many poor moments.
Rankine at worst has to just land that ball on the goal line for Witts (the biggest bloke on the field) to whack it through for a point. Not 25m out the fat side of the ground where it's easy for the Bombers to defend and get boundary side.

It'll go unnoticed but Lemmens tried to take on about 6 blokes to manufacture a shot in the dying seconds, just had to get a kick or handball away much quicker, just get it closer to the goal line and continue to pressure it across for a score.
