Well we've had gun NYC sides that haven't finished worse then the second week of the finals for 5 years straight and it's done FA for first grade

Exactly.

This is the first time i can remembers our 20s being f**king crap. I think we've only missed top 8 once maybe twice in the whole 20s inception. JT f**ked over the whole club

 

[Tiger05]

JT was a once in a generation f**k up of a coach wasn't he. It's not all his fault but geez he made some bad decisions.

 

[axl rose]

Defended our guts out in 2nd half. With Brooks we might have been a chance.

Well played Moses Suli. Unstoppable.

 

[Tiger05]

We put in today didn't we. Tedesco is a massive loss. LittleJohn shouldn't be there. Woods has his moments and his second stint was great with the offloads but at the same time he is a mediocre prop in so many ways.

Liddle really impressed me. I think once he gets rid of the crud plays in his game he will be the best hooker in the game.

We just need a gun pack to get us going forward and some class in our backs to finish it off.

Suli is a beast but he needs to improve his game a little. I think in a quality team he will look better.

 

[TheDefinitionOfMadness]

I thought we went really well considering saints dominant forward pack and our lack of any organisation in the halves. Our last tackle options were poor to say the least. What I wouldn't give for De Belin or Thompson in our side. I was happy with Marsters play, I thought he went well. All in all a really enjoyable game. Makes a big difference when you're a chance of winning at the end.

alien hasn't voted this week wow!! might be in jail??

Could be back now that Wests Tigers have said that the Magpies will be the NSW state cup side next year.

Had no dramas getting up their end of the field, just bereft of ideas for last tackle options.

Yes plenty of improvement left, only 18. Very impressed with he and Liddle.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Suli was real good, he's a guy who needs early ball as he is deceptively quick with good footwork to go with being fcking massive. When brooks comes back I expect them to form a real combo on the left.

 

[Front-Rower]

Could be back now that Wests Tigers have said that the Magpies will be the NSW state cup side next year.

WHAT?!? That's a horrible decision (and that's coming from an old magpie)

 

[Crazyperpman]

It was a game that we were never really out of but never really looked like winning.

The effort was there from Woods and Teddy, seeing as they were backing up from such a tough Origin game it was good to see.

Suli looks like a settled first grader and it was a good start for Marsters. Didnt expect much from lolohea, first up, but he went ok and will be better for the run and even better when Brooks returns.

The problem this year is there are too many flogs in the team at the moment,but this cant be helped.

The nucleus is building nicely for next year and we will start wining games like this soon enough.

 

[Clifferd]

Yeah we went better than expected. Widdop was the difference imo

 

[BuffaloRules]

I was pretty disappointed in the performance today...

I can't believe they only lost by 4...

There are a lot of problems... Not confident that the recruits for next year already signed will be enough...

 

[madunit]

Littlejohn showed he is not first grade standard.

There was no direction with plays, no communication in attack at all. Kicks were just ineffective. Lolohea went the short kick with no notice too much. Its a good tactic if the wingers know its coming.

Lawrence could be gone for a month. Our defence is going to miss him.

 

[madunit]

I'm thinking Liddle might be the unlucky one tbh.

Surely not even Taylor would go into a game against the Dragons with a bench of Grant, Marsters, Edwards, Liddle yet alone Cleary. We need all the size we can get

We're not exactly spoilt for choice though

 

[leaguelegend21]

Lolohea was terrible and Littlejohn was worse. Dark times.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Lolohea was terrible and Littlejohn was worse. Dark times.

Not really sure what else we could have expected from LoLo. He landed in the country 5 days earlier and was asked to play in the halves of a terrible team, next to a reserve grade halfback, after he had been playing wing in nsw cup for the past 8 weeks.

I thought he went fine all things considered.

LittleJohn on the other hand is sadly nothing but a reserve grader. I thought rankin played much better then him against the broncos so not sure why he wasn't given a go instead.
