You blokes are mad. Cronulla tried their best. They were just hammered.

Shit happens sometimes. I remember being at Shark Park in 2007. That was a drubbing. Sometimes your best aint good enough.

It happens.

Watched the interview, and as normal Flanno like a deer in headlights, if said that Feki, Leutele, Heigno and maybe Gallen back next week.

Was asked about Barba said he is out of form, but will work with him, so taking that Barba will be in 17 this weekend, no mention of Robson, after that team needs to be

1. Holmes
2. Feki
3. Beale
4. Leutele
5. Gordon
6. Bird
7. Murphy
8. Fifita
9. Ennis
10. Heighno
11. Lewis
12. Graham
13. Gallen
14. Ayshford
15. Prior
16. Bakuya
17. Fifita D

Couldn't offer any points to any players.
Flanno's idea in attack 1 out,the only time we looked dangerous when the ball went out the backline,which was rare we fluffed it,Robson couldn't catch a cold on an iceberg.Barba throwing that dumb pass on his in goal.Holmes kicking out on the full 2 penalties resulting in tries.
Backs defence weak as p..ss or as I abbreviate it: WASP
Bird tried his guts out
Prior a waste of space,a one out merchant.
Defence did not move up in a straight line.Dugan and Marshall had a field day bamboozling the likes of Beale and Ayshford.
Fifita running sideways,in attack.
And I had to sit through this crap in the upper deck of the Jubilee stand,surrounded by their supporters.Kidding I didn't feel like committing hari kari.I died the death of 1,000 not 42 cuts(point that is) watching a team play like park footballers.
Every bleeding kick in general play was down the throats of either Dugan or Florence Nightingale.

You could count the attacking offloads on two fingers.

Dumb penalties.
Every time the Dragons were in our 50 ,a try was on,you could smell it in a field of fresh cow sh*t.
If Robson maintains his place ,Flanno needs hanging from the highest point .We have to try someone else it aint working with this slow,fumbling,predictable biot of so called ha;lf back flesh.

The only joy I got out of going was watching the u20s win,and relieving myself in the pistorial.

And the worst part all on FTA prime time TV>T.this is the Cronulla Sharks public,this is way we play under outr super coach,and enterprising halfback.You should see us when we play like crap.

I'm sure missing those players totally allowed the stains to lap us. He's a f**king idiot.

I feel for you, half of my usual diehards went, the half including me did not. Same went to SFS back v roosters and got a better result - I was pretty dirty over that, but after Round 1 I had a feeling we were just also rans in 2015. Today was always coming, shame it was against Saints
My main issue is the discipline and respect - which we virtually have none. I tend to think the coach has no issue with this. you look at the saints and for a team everyone laughed at pre-season, they show great resolve and hats off the McGregor, they are doing well.

Sad sad performance.

I have been pretty nonplussed over the performances this year, even when we have been doing our usual brain dead shit. Not nearly as much abusing the TV as past years.

However, today I lost it - that was the local derby - it's unacceptable to capitulate like that against the Dragons.

To think we still have the same poor discipline game after game, makes ya wonder if Flanno has any control over the team...or is he just their mate & doesn't want to hurt their feelings after we lose?

How the hell does Andrew Fifita still try to milk a penalty in every play the ball - whether he has the ball or not? It's just plain ridiculous but Flanno lets it go on & on & on.

It symptomatic of his coaching style - doesn't change what isn't working in the hope it'll fix itself?

He is a very poor leader!

Robson would be flat out struggling to take Luke Brannighan's spot for the Young cherrypickers.

Why is Robson's position never under the spot light?

Was at that game. Far out.. Was one of our worst performances I can remember.

Barba... Even in the warm up look disinterested..
Holmes kicking it out on the ful. Twice. Gotta be kidding me
Semi on the bench for 70 minutes. What's the point? Start him over ayshford
Taga, piss off to the roosters. It's obvious you do not want to be here

Only ones I thought had a crack were prior and Lewis.

From Flanno to you - throw your hands in the air like you just don't care;

“They were disciplined, controlled, everyone did their role within their team. All the things that we didn’t do,” Flanagan said.
“They just stuck to their game plan. Ran hard and kicked us into corners and waited for us to make mistakes.
“Give credit to the Dragons.”

Hes got nothing

i am stunned at hearing that he is with your setup.

if ever there is an example of a coach adhering to the failure principle of doing the same thing repeatedly when it doesn't work - price is the standout.

i'm sorry guys - you're screwed whilst that guy is ever around the setup.
