Played smart footy in the first half....played dumb arse footy in the second half. How we played in that 10 minute period when they were down to 12 was diabolical .Having said that ....If Duges plants the ball or Moylan clings onto that high pass from Capewell we win the game.
 

Surely

It looks our game plan dosent change, the players are getting older and older.

Moylan & Dugan look good, but i can see Flanno changing them into how he wants to play, not playing to there strenghts


Serious question ... How the f**k did moylen and Dugan look good ?

Beaten by 2 teams who will be top 4 - 6.
Only by 6 points or less.

And thats with nothing clicking and disunity and endless mistakes.
So...a positive.
We are hard to beat.

However the Gal comments. True.
He has that aura. You sense it with every run. Took 4 guys every run to halt him
But not there this year.
He just seems quiet.

Wade? Fphark.
2 co-captains leading from the back.

The simple plain indisputable gut-wrenching fact is the stars aligned and the miracle that was barba ennis maloney fell into our lap....but it has gone.

Dragons are nowhere near top 4-6

It took them an absolute fluke mis kick and dumb penalties from us to win.

Storm would’ve put 50 on us....whereas we could’ve beaten the dragons in the last 10 seconds still.

I bet Flanno is sleepin soundly with his teeth in a glass of water on the bedroom side table. Hopefully dreaming about taking the million dollar gig to coach the warriors

Out of all our problems I think the team needs to sit down and as a group talk and work through... Ava's play of the ball technique... didn't happen this week but he will get pinged. Other than this looking razor sharp, great energy, not many mistakes.

Seriously 2018 the year we should of rebuilt. Gal and Lewis have maybe played a year too long...

Theres a lot of energy.
There's a will to win and compete.
Theres a genuine belief we deserve to be in the elite 4 teams in the comp.

But another loss will see all that start to erode.

All the preseason hoopla, hype and hope is gone.
It is now on the line.

The top teams have guys who manage the energy in a side. Channel it in the right direction. A dog running out the gate and onto the highway gets flattened.
Cooper cronk puts a leash on that dog. Doesnt want to lose the energy. Just wants to see it used effectively.
Lets the leash out at times. Shortens it when needed.

Kicking out on the full. Dumb dumb penalties. Dropping kickoffs.
Feefs antics.
Bellamy and Grub Smith would put up with that for about 5 seconds.

That shit would be corrected.
There would be no smiles at the next training session after a 2nd half like that.
Not a fpharking grin.

They were good in the first half. Intense,applying pressure like the team we know. Then it all went to shit when it doesn't go their way. One lucky try and a poor attempt at tackle by Leutele and it's all over.
Chad lost control when JK got sent to bin. Chad went missing but players dropping off tackles and the ball is a worrying sign

There should be a Flanno Spray for whichever Captain who went against the decision to take the 2 from in front a few minutes before half time.

Would of made the half time score 16-4 at half time instead of 14-4.

Yeah sure the Goons got to 20 but it was just an arrogant decision. Don’t knock back the chance to go 2 converted tries in front ever.

That kicking out on the full rule is geniused.
The ball is not going out on the full.
No reward for a great attacking kick

It just makes no sense at all.
