Rd6 GAME DAY THREAD: 2pm Parra v Titans @ Commbank 12/4/26

[Eelogical]

I was joking. That was the worse performance of any NRL side this year by a margin.
I'm all behind Ryles but losing faith at a rapid pace. If I am Big Sam I am probably taking the Dogs offer ( It's coming )

This isn’t a joking matter, mate. We’re in the trenches together.

 

[AKA Das Hassler]

That the same shit Tigers who will be sitting in third after today?

Equal first...2nd if you want to split hairs

Yeah. EAD @Parra Pride . How dare you try to debunk my point with your unthought out points and facts that are incorrect.

Let’s agree to leave this to me, shall we?

Back to my point. Tigers against horrible conditions have recruited far better than us recently.

 

[Zoso]

Sure the players were meh

MON built this roster over the 7/8 years he and Jim have been in charge. Go back and check the 2022 GF side that was basically dismantled and rebuilt with nobodies, reserve graders, has beens and projects. Still spending the cap and somehow not signing anyone elite, can’t blame the coach or even our sole rep player, the turn around from the SpoonBowl by the Tigers from less than 2 years ago highlights what a friggin pathetic disaster our recruitment has been , End of.

Hard to argue. The people that matter don’t see it or don’t have the wherewith-all to change it.
Fair enough we have 10 players out. But it’s not as if they were injured round 1 when we weren’t ready to take on the Storm.
Time for a change somewhere; recruitment, ceo (if he can’t see it), board (if they can’t see it either).

 

[lingard]

Russell is back next week so he'll definitely be out, but even Samrani on one leg would be better than Kelly

I'd shift Nanva to right wing at least until Samrani is back.

 

[Pazza]

can araz play wing?

maybe just put russell out there until jordan is back

 

[Parra Pride]

The fact that we are counting down the days until Samrani is back is genuinely depressing. Remember when our left edge was Jennings and Radradra?

 

[the phantom menace]

I won't blame Moses if he asks for a release, he's wasting his best years here.

And if today's performance reflects the culture within this squad, then it might be good to grant the release... and truly start over from scratch.

For some reason they're not playing for each other, and Moses and the leadership group aren't inspiring anyone to bring their best.

Did something happen in the off-season within the squad, the inner sanctum and coaches...? Other than Lomax's stunt request for release?

 

[Soto]

I need to use my words.

But I simply have no words that are adequate to describe just how f**king poor that was.

How about
Pathetic
Insipid
Inept
Disgraceful
Abysmal
Unnaceptable
Diabolical

 

[Noise]

Imagine being an origin quality half and you have to run out with dumb uncoordinated merkins like Kelma, Williams, Penisini , Moretti and Kelly who make the same simple mistakes every week. It’s bad enough we have to watch them but having to be in a team with these f**ktards….my god!!

 

[Soto]

From Ryles, Kelma, Sammy cat 1 concussion. Out next week.

Moretti was activated as 20th man

Managing knee injury for Paulo.

Shit performance.,Not really an opportunity to blood young in a side performing like that.

Id rather play a flegg side than trot out players and coaches who impersonate 1st grade...fkn frauds

 

[lingard]

Maybe. But I think Russell's experience and defence is needed at centre. And it'll give Nanva experience in first grade - even if it isn't his preferred position.

 

[the phantom menace]

f**k this season. I’m just going to enjoy my WWF back catalogue. 80s barely professional wrestling is better than this shit

I used to love the Killer Bees tag team - and their trick where they'd both go under the ring, and because of the bee masks the fresher guy would then get back in the ring as the "legal" man.

 

[the phantom menace]

Has Jaydn Su'a signed with us ?

If so, how many days left till the 10 day cooling off period is over...

His manager might try to ask for a PO to sweeten the deal now...

 

[lingard]

Maybe. But I think Russell's experience and defence is needed at centre. And it'll give Nanva experience in first grade - even if it isn't his preferred position.

I still think that by 2028 well be a good side. But I think I might look for another interest this winter. Or follow the Tigers.

one thing is for sure, kelly is an error machine and not what we need atm

 

[Parra Pride]

He’s not what we, or anyone else for that matter, ever need. Complete shit. Morgan Harper tier signing.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

we can argue for days about Kelly (who yeah has an error but don't think has been that poor defensively) or any other back (thought our back 5 all had a go, not saying they were perfect or didn't have an error).....but until the forwards have a crack, it won't matter...:the middle were shocking defensively at times today (thought only when Sam and guymer were on together we improved there).........

Fair point. But I don't think Moses gets anywhere near Origin this year, provided Cleary remains fit - and even then will only be picked on past reputation.

 

[Parra Cheeses]

This roster compared to other teams is not a great 10 million dollar roster. We would rank lowest. Outside of Moses who is getting the cash. Dog roster for 10 million dollar.
