God damn. Seriously, I was too bitterly disappointed after fulltime last night to even think about coming here to post. What a shit night. Just an absolutely dogshit night that is basically as bad as it gets. At their dung heap in the freezing cold, perform like that, and lose two star players to injury. It's basically as bad as it gets really.
Right from the start, the boys just weren't there, and you could tell from the early body language that it was going to be a long night. Seriously, they just looked like they didn't want to be out there. Our defensive efforts, if you even want to call it an effort, were putrid. No one willing to put their body on the line, no one willing to get in front of anyone, it was all just arm grabbing BS. It started with that first try off some feeble defence and it just carried on from there. Honestly, I think just about all the Raiders tries tonight apart from maybe one or two, were down to our piss poor efforts. Not brilliant play from our opposition, our lack of intensity.
Seriously, it was that bad that I couldn't believe what I was watching, and it just continued all game. It was back to the dark days from earlier this Season. Just simply not up to first grade standard and I am livid.
Even with the ball, it looked like no one was interested. It never felt like we had the upper hand or that we were winning the battle, or that we were threatening. It felt like our lads were simply going through the motions. Our ball handling was actually alright, but there was no desire. Rund were mistimed, the plays were all unorganised, not very much enterprising play, and they played like a bunch of individuals to be honest. Our attack just completely fell apart and we looked lost.
It's so depressing watching a game and just knowing you're not in the contest, are no chance of winning and nothing is really going to happen. That's how I felt all game.
I'm honestly gonna say that is one of our worst performances of the year. So disappointing after the last eight weeks or so made us all believe again, but then the boys dish up that crap. A bunch of absolute pussies last night. Every one of them should go have a good, hard look at themselves because that's not what this club is about.
In such an important game too, and we show no sort of desperation. For f**k sake I'm depressed today.
