Hands basically isn’t big enough to defend in the centres, we don’t have backline cover, go ask the HOF why that is. Been obvious for a couple of years.
So you agree with watching us getting torn to shreds out there and not at least trying that? Or shifting Matterson out wide? Even just having Dylbags defend at centre with whoever else one in? Are you actually BA?

Don’t understand the criticism, anyone that has been involved in footy knows the winger is the most difficult position to cover. All
Penrith did was attack the left where we had Harper and Tualagi , an edge player who doesn’t normally play long minutes.

The effort was really amazing, and the thought that we would suffer if we had issues in the backs goes back to lack of recruitment in that area..

Fairly confident we would have one with a full complement of players, it was won attacking that one side. Fox just gave a constant blow job to Penrith without mentioning losing a winger to foul play which the video ref could have been more severe a(oh it was Atkins) .and same player placed on report for a trip.

Vonny, etc constant suck up, hardly acknowledging we played, sigh.
Glug glug glug!!! Don't spill a drop.

As expected, childish comment
As expected you going into bat for your buddy Brad. You Rhino's have to stick together.


You admitted Kelma isn't used to playing big mins and you still won't admit playing him for 78mins against one of the better attacking centres in the game wasn't beyond stupid. Keep on hugging Brah!!

Even if he was set on having kelma attack at centre he could’ve defended him 3 in with Dyl outside him or even pushed him 4 in and shifted lane out one more spot in defence.

Yep this is what I thought would have been the defence. Brown and Harper.

Did you see Carty defending there too. , been involved in footy for a long time and if you don’t have another decent back it’s tough. Wingers just can’t be covered easily. Thought I was pointing out the obvious, seems it’s blame BA without seeing there were no basic alternatives. From the get go we have been short of backline players, we have a recruitment committee, where are they answering the obvious.

Arthur in the presser just takes it like a bitch. He just said Simonsson has no memory yet he didn’t mention that Luai should have been binned. What the f**k is he scared of???


Yep would have ripped them about that and other rules the refs don't know but players do....

How a player who takes someone out of the game and also trips someone doesn't end up in the bin...

Aaaaaaghhhhhh yes it's all MON's fault, Bea Arthur never ever does anything wrong according to you. Why can't we attract players?? Who would want to come to play under a coach who still can't manage a bench after 11 seasons???

I think he needs to stand himself down for 11 days and let someone else take charge

Was too busy watching Kelma and the turd Harper tripping over each other to notice whatever Bryce was or wasn't doing to be honest with you.

He needs to learn to be more brutal in pressers when making a point.

It was the perfect chance to give the officials a clip.

Bellamy or Robinson wouldn't have copped the Luai decision on the chin.

Ricky would have sooked in a way to not get fined but made his point perfectly clear.

Even if we had more depth in the backline that depth would not have been on the bench. Better backline players get concussed too. I don’t get your point buddy.
