2016 R8 vs Canberra

[Front-Rower]

Too many beers and too much pizza are probably what has caused the slide.

Bring the back the gluten free diet pronto!

So is anybody still happy with our performances? What positives do we find out of this game? Fmd

1. A friend of mine who went to Trinity Grammar told me he used to get beaten up on the train most afternoons for wearing his silly boater....the school told him this was 'character building'. Coach Taylor can tell his players the loss was 'character building'.
2. They managed to find their way to the ground.

Devastation is the word.

 

[madunit]

The first try Canberra scored was the most pathetic defensive effort I've seen by any side this year, the second of their tries was the second most pathetic defensive effort. Even though we scored next, we had given up after that second try.

I have been saying it for a long time now but I f**king hate seeing centres rushing up out of the line to put on a tackle only to miss everything or get brushed off. Milone and Naiqama did this all f**king day. At what point do they stop and think "This isn't working"

Canberra had two tactics today. Go up the middle and then kick to the corners and contain Tedesco.

That was it.

It was obvious after the first 3 minutes. We never adapted.

Lawrence, Farah and Tedesco had a dig today. That was it. Everyone else gave up after 10 minutes.

Cannot believe that Canberra scored a try 10 metres out, down a short side with just 2 players on it. We couldn't even number up on the f**king short side!

No communication, no direction, no leadership, no accountability, no passion, no drive, no commitment, no intent, no interest, no effort.

Taylor should get sacked over this.

Several players should get a few weeks in NSW Cup and told to earn their NRL jumper back.

I'd be running out this side next week

1 - Tedesco
2 - Nofoaluma
3 - Simona
4 - Chee-Kam
5 - Addo Carr
6 - Drinkwater
7 - Littlejohn
8 - Seumanufagai
9 - Farah
10 - Grant
11 - Edwards
12 - Lawrence
13 - Sue

14 - Fine
15 - Griffin
16 - Graham
17 - Grant

Result doesn't matter. This mob plays for a month. If the dumped players haven't earnt a recall, so be it.

There's only one way to end a softcock culture and that's to be strict as f**k. Taylor talks tough but acts like a softcock.

Now is his time to rectify that.

Brooks and Milone are possibly the worst defensive combo I have ever seen in NRL

Milone is worse. Brooks for all his defensive failings, is only small but at least tries.

Milone is pea hearted. Brooks spent most of the game as a cover defender trying to clean up Milone's crap reads and shit technique.

 

[Tiger05]

Nofo and Lawrence were our best players today. Tedesco hasn't been able to perform well when we're getting smashed. I don't blame him.

We just need a massive attitude adjustment and the forwards need to perform. Milone is terrible.

 

[simmo1]

Probably the worst defensive display I've ever seen.

Half the team needs to go back to reserves.

 

[madunit]

Look at all the Traffic Milone had running at his side, centres and back rowers mostly. He made just 9 tackles and still missed 4.

Brooks had to deal with props and be a cover defender for Milone and made 10 tackles, missing 7.

Although at least 3 of those missed tackles he had f**k all chance of making and should have been credited to Milone.

Moses didn't run the ball once.

Some people here have it in for Brooks, but he pissed on many players tonight, including Moses, who was an utter disgrace tonight.

I thought Brooks was good. He ran to the line with speed and really put in. He also puts his body on the line.

 

[macnaz]

Devastation is the word.

OMG he even looks shit just sitting in the dressing shed.

1. How is it that he only had one page of notes at halftime?
2. Why is there furniture still standing after that first half?

1- it's a resignation.

2 - too weak to knock it over...

 

[benched tiger]

Agree 100% with all comments....and give that side a run.

HAHA yep

 

[nick87]

Just here to say LOL @ Traffic Milone
That's one of the best nicknames I've heard. Kudos to whoever came up with that

 

[sensesmaybenumbed]

I've sent an invoice to the club for petrol and ticket costs.

The raiders mates who I was with at the game are also fundraising to get me back there for every game.

Also, plenty of Tigers fans in the crowd.

 

[FootynRacing]

Hahahahahahahahahaha. There isn't much to laugh about after last night but that's pretty funny. Milone is more out of his depth in the Nrl more so than any other Wests Tiger, possibly except for the coach
