Twice Hoffman made a great hit-up then then instead of taking it to our halves Auva'a takes another dummy half run...

Auva'a Is slow as shit and cant defend... Hoffman is the same in defence..

Slow and shit and cant defend? You clearly have no idea. Ask anyone with a set of eyes Auvaaaa is very quick!

As for him taking a dummy half run at least he is making very good metres and if the halves were in control they would have over called him. That is their fault, not his for getting involved.

Of the 3 new recruits I thought TRex would be the worst. Pleasantly surprised by his 30 minutes yesterday. Well done big fella.
Also Gennings went pretty well.
Does anyone in our team know how to hit and spin? Are we coached not to offload?
Unfortunately safety first footy has cost us big time. Time to unleash the beast.
Interesting how The Tigpies managed to develop an attacking game in one week.

Give people some credit FFS.

I think you can look at the positives of the back end of the game whilst still being critical of the reasons we ended up in such an untenable position.

Now go and google “unntennabull” you gibberer...

Tigers intensity went from 100% to about 75%. They where careless with ball and defense stopped rushing .
We also scored 2 tries off bombs.

Ok so we had 40% possesion. Another team also had that, played away from home and without there halfback and flogged the ass off the other team.

No chance of getting past the governing body, I'm afraid. I know all your little tricks.

I was out of Sydney over Easter. The sth coast breeze blew my decision the wrong way. I had then logged on to change once I realized that along with daylight savings had messed up my decision and the internet service was to poor to log on.
I rely on the energies i get from my local base. Your decision is absurd.
Mr 85% is back

Our halves have let us down last couple of weeks

controlling the game AND the kicking game
the opposing halves were not only better, but better for the 80min
Brooks kicking game was lethal, ours was laughable at best. Don't know why we bother to kick, just give them the ball on a platter

Arthur talks about holding onto the ball, but here is your main problem e the halves (which im sure he knows but wont openly admit). Field possession and making the opposition tire will give us more ball and control cause they will get fatigued not us, its happening in reverse atm.

Before a ball was kicked this year Moses was talked about possibly Origin this year ,
Norman a shot for QLD. Any talk of that is deafening now

That last line I think you mean to say the silence is deafening... But I hear what you say.

One thing the halves drove me MAD on was Norman kicking on the 3rd and 4th tackle with seemingly no one aware and chasing. I've no idea what the f**k he was doing as he certainly wasn't threatening 40/20's!

Oh, that the "I've run out of ideas" mid field bomb.

Excuses, excuses. No-one is buying your bullshit.

Even if you jag another win this weekend the best you can hope for is 80%.

Mr 85% is a distant memory and now appears to be something you made up.

The stats don’t lie!

Yes our halves have been playing behind a beaten pack but f**k me dead they’re kicking game and game management has been dreadful, they have not given us sniff of getting back in the game or turning the tide and there is no excuse for that.

They’re decision making and kicking choices have made it even harder for us.
