Didn't watch enough of the game to give points, looks like Luke improved so will take some of that back.

What I did see (first 30 mins or so), we never ever looked like winning.
Manly didn't seem to hit top gear and were still comfortably above us.

Pretty much sums it up. After the first quarter I knew we were playing like mud and watched the rest while doing household chores instead of fully attending to it from the couch.

You're absolutely off your rocker regarding Mannering & Lillyman
Wright is ok, does his job and is hardly responsible for our dismal season.
Robson is plod. He's another Lowrie, he tries but is just a pasenger.
Luke hasn't shown up, what happened to that dynamic little bastard bursting out of dummy half?

Ah Johnson.... the ultimate enigma. He'll fire up beautifully if all the stars and planets align for him, and if it doesn't he will go hiding somewhere and that is 'almost' making him a liability. His lack of runs and metres is shocking in bad games. He doesn't work well with other halves (other than maybe Foran), and he isn't a full season player.

The truth is, we need another genuine class half or we're going to be dead again.
Leuluai will work hard but he is NOT one of them.

Johnson cannot carry this team, the worst part is we have so much genuine class littered in there running around like headless chooks.

I thought this year our attack was going to sever teams, but it's pretty close to 'season gone' territory already unless we very dramatically get coordinated.

I am over this statement; it suggests that Johnson is the savior of the team. Should read "The team cannot continue to carry Johnson in the hope he might choose to play".
At the moment Johnson is an albatross around the neck of the team.
We desperately need a good half.
Other than that I agree with your post.
