    R24 | Cowboys 26-6 Knights @ 1300SMILES | Sat 7.30pm

    This situation is a direct result of laying down every time we get kicked. If you let people walk all over you then don't be surprised if they make a habit of it. We never defend ourselves or kick up a royal stink, Bennett is too worried about his legacy and Matt Gidley is frankly...

    R24 | Cowboys 26-6 Knights @ 1300SMILES | Sat 7.30pm

    So let me see if I get this straight. SBW hits Mason with a flying shoulder charge, Mason out for 4-5 weeks and SBW gets 2 weeks. Snowden hits Thompson with a defensive shoulder charge, Thompson out for 4-5 weeks and Snowden gets a minimum of 7 weeks. The club if its got half a clue would...

    Rumoured targets 2

    No chance that Boyd could play half, he doesn't have a kicking game, he's never been a playmaker and his involvement is poor. It's one thing to inject yourself into a back line move periodically. It's another thing altogether to run a team around the paddock and making decisions every single...

    I don't have a problem with a number of old heads in the NSW cup because the young blokes need some old pros to mentor them. My concern is that the FG team has got a large number of old guys who will be a year older in 2014. We are still short a dynamic back rower and organizing half. We also...

    All 100% true and all negated by Coach Bennett saying in the press conference that the send off was warranted. Would there be another coach in the NRL who would "give up" his player so quickly? I feel that Bennett is more interested in his legacy as a games elder than he is in getting the...

    R24 | Cowboys 26-6 Knights @ 1300SMILES | Sat 7.30pm

    The issue is that there's been times like against the Saints twice where we are beyond embarrassingly bad. This isn't a new team or structure, Bennett has had two years to get it right and still hasn't. The most damning thing for me is that Stone did better with far less. What kills me is...

    R24 | Cowboys 26-6 Knights @ 1300SMILES | Sat 7.30pm

    A couple of points. Utterly predictable result, not surprised and frankly i'm not even upset. I feel like a lot on the forum, slowly but surely the enjoyment is being sucked out of the game. It's a number of things, our performance over an extended period of time, the farcical standard of...

    Anything noteworthy or just depth signings and kids?

    Our attack, and why it sucks

    My view is that our attack inside the 10 just refuses to be patient. We are looking to score within 6 tackles and using contested kicks which become a crap shoot. Rarely do we exhibit patience and composure of a sustained nature. We've got to have the mentality to say its just not working...

    R23 | Knights 10-23 Storm @ Hunter | Sun 3.00pm

    I was there and the Storm had a breeze in the first half but not excessive. I think Mullen rushes and is worried about not finding touch so he is ultra cautious with line kicks. They might make 15-20 metres max, never a big bite ever.

    R23 | Knights 10-23 Storm @ Hunter | Sun 3.00pm

    Mate, you are kidding, I just hope the Karma bus comes along and runs the Storm down preferably in a GF qualifier. I'm sick of giving refs the benefit of the doubt and then getting screwed for it. There was a straight dropped ball in the lead up the first Storm try, Cronk should have been...

    R23 | Knights 10-23 Storm @ Hunter | Sun 3.00pm

    The Storm defense benefits from being set before the ptb. Their monstering in the tackle just never allows a quick ptb. Very easy to defend well when you are setting the timing. They knew they would wear down the refs eventually and did. It's so transparently obvious and yet they get away...

    R23 | Knights 10-23 Storm @ Hunter | Sun 3.00pm

    This. I feel the same way, you just know that the refs will squib the tough calls against the favoured teams. A simple question, if Slater was taken out in the similar position by a knight would they have gone to the bin. Its a minted certainty. You just know that the likes of Melbourne are...

    R23 | Knights 10-23 Storm @ Hunter | Sun 3.00pm

    Seriously, you can't blame the team for today, the refs got played once again by Melbourne. We never got a quick play the ball because the Storm were wrestling and lying in the tackle constantly. I reckon the refs gave 3 penalties in the first quarter of both halves and then let they get away...

    Darius Boyd (not a troll thread)

    Whether I think he is just doing the bare minimum , which I think he is, I am more concerned about Bennett's attitude to it, does he accept it? Surely Bennett should be giving him a rocket?

    R23 | Knights 10-23 Storm @ Hunter | Sun 3.00pm

    Whether that's the case or not, the same sh!t goes on each year. If Bennett doesn't blow up then he is kidding also.

    R23 | Knights 10-23 Storm @ Hunter | Sun 3.00pm

    There is little point in playing if we are going to get screwed so comprehensively. 35th minute first half, Melbourne drop it cold and we get penalised, they score. Slater was in front of Cronks kick and they don't even check it. The play the balls were a disgrace, Melbourne just wore the...

    What's the point of playing when the refs will f*ck us so royally.

    Shocking call, impossible to defend by the refs. They are getting away with murder in the play the ball and the refs have given up trying to police it.
