Round 2 v storm

[R&WTILLIDIE]

Dead shits

That was a lovely way to finish.
Just like we finished the first half.

Our two star signings missing simple tackles.

Yeah...it's hard to have belief in this lot.

Sure, we have unrealistically high expectations sometimes but that as PATHETIC in every sense of the word, and the spoon is looking very likely.

 

[thebigredv]

Setu Tu is trash, even for a fill in.

Offers zero.

It’s been too damn horrible to look at , in my opinion the effort is there however too many school boy errors have placed ourselves under pressure and the Storm take advantage of that - that is the way they play . We are the opposite creating the occasional opportunity only to blow it apart at the last moment , it is demoralising at times .

however credit must be given when due the Melbourne side are a class proposition to all teams , if you are not at your best then expect to pay the consequences and we have today.

 

[St Tangles]

Very embaressing last 20 minutes
Don't see us winning many this year

You expect better from a player of Cook's experience than dumb stuff like that.

Cook, Holms, and Gutho are old and past it. Feagai and Suli not what we need moving forward.

I was criticised saying we will be 0-3 .
Nothing changes.
We are not the Storm to comeback from that.
And after that shit show.

He really is a handbrake but they’ll fall behind the excuse of losing the fullback at a crucial time, and there is some truth to that too.

Dumb f**king dumb not once but twice.

 

[Dragons4me]

Don't know what the answer is. There was effort there today and therefore a little hope. Some good plays but we fell away again.

 

[jeffdragon]

We re-signed this d***head coach before a ball was kicked.
What a fn dumb

What a fn dumb club.

Hes not the right man for the job ffs get rid of Dean Young the worst defensive coach in history.

 

[Redvdragons21]

It’s always effort but never win games

 

[twinkletoes]

My biggest concern is that there is no sign of improvement…. we say we have good young forwards coming through but to be honest I see far better
Young talent at the Tigers, Warriors, Roosters,Eels etc…. I really don’t know where the club goes from here

 

[John moz]

Flanagans show is over coach and son completely a disgrace . We are playing the same attack and defence embarrassing

 

[jeffdragon]

Just when you think we are a chance we get our hopes up then bang.
Like a busted balloon.

 

[Blood Shot Eyes]

I'm that disappointed once again...thats my comment for this week

 

[Number of the Beath]

I really dared to think that we could win today but the difference is this:
Melbourne are a well-coached team with a very effective system that still works almost regardless of which cog you drop into the machine. No Nelson? Doesn't matter. No Paps? No Katoa? No Loriero? Doesn't matter.
We, on the other hand, look like 1977 Newtown but without the muscle and the flair.
If St George Illawarra was a horse, you'd shoot it in the face.

 

[thebigredv]

Don't know what the answer is. There was effort there today and therefore a little hope. Some good plays but we fell away again.

Even when it looked like we might be able to take it deep and maybe eek out a victory, it was clear we are shy of a couple of really explosive and speedy backs that could make that happen. I don't think Storm got out of first gear for much of that game in all honesty, and their big stars didn't fire. Looking at the scoreboard, that doesn't bear thinking about.

By now I expect more than effort. I expect results to fall our way more frequently and I do appreciate we are a 'rebuilding' club - for want of a better term - in a very tough competition.

Given what transpired in Vegas, that was a really crap performance to follow up with and we literally hit a wall with 20 to go. Right this moment, I am really struggling to see positives in the near and distant future, and the trouble is I feel we have bided our time long enough as suffering fans.

Someone has to be held accountable for this.
I don't want to hear about the silver linings. We got that enough in 2025.

How does a busted balloon go bang?!
