Breaking News - it is GAME DAY vs. the Panther!

[Generalzod]

The stripping rule is different for the Panthers...

 

[Dragon Slayer]

I’ll take all 3 please

Yes bloody oath.

Now where’s their influence and legacy on this team in defence?

You know when you hear they’ll teach the younger blokes to play the same way.

Well I call bullshyte on that to a certain extent.

You either have that drive and instinct or you don’t.

Or you have a coach that drills it into you until you get what’s required in defence in First Grade like a Bellamy or a Robinson would do.

The only player left is wade and I just don’t get that leadership vibe from him. He seems to have to stepped back from that role. Something is going on with him.

I’d nearly make SJ captain instead of Wade.

JMO seems to be respected by the players but is it because he too nice to them? Nice gets you nowhere.

We need a flano, a take no shit coach.

 

[bad boy bubby]

I think they got rid of all coaching and support staff except Bomber and Noakes, please correct me if I'm wrong. In doing that they also took away every one that had a hand instilling the hardness of the team, a hardness that made other teams dread playing us.
That dread has totally gone this season.

I’d honestly throw money at Ennis to get him back and involved.

But there must be something other clubs are picking up about us? Titans went for lots of strips last week and they kept getting penalised until Perenara decided he'd given us enough penalties he let them slide. Of course Klein wouldn't call any

But opposition teams must be noting something about our players either carry it loosely or let go easily trying to milk penalties.

goodluck with that, he was the first to go when bomber signed up
Id drop Ronaldo, Sorenson and Moylan after that.

 

[Card Shark]

We've been poor defensively all year. We are deadset garbage in defence and its everyone falling off tackles or lazy

Defence is attitude & currently ours stinks.

 

[MilkShark]

It’s kind of unfortunate we have had an easy ride after the restart.

“sharks beat attack in the comp”

Yeah right.

If we had played more storms, eels, roosters, panthers we are out of the 8 right now and questioning the coach, the captain, the direction of the club.

This is the money end of the season, we have some big games coming up. If we don’t snag some wins we are out.

 

[R-15-3]

I love Braily and is our future but I think he is a massive reason why our defence sux in the middle, he just isn’t big enough, I’d love to c his post meters coincided after contact in defence.
I’d be starting soranson @ 9 for the opening 15 and someone like hunt starting and doing a short stint and bring Braily on and soro back to lock.

They are slow on the uptake.

Poorly coached about it.

Our coach just said we are the worst in the comp with this yet nothing changes week in week out.

As soon as you make contact with the defence you have to make sure you have a vice like grip on the ball.

Ball security first instinct and if you win the collision or break the tackle then think of offload.

It’s not rocket science.

But we have a few space cadets out there just cruising along.

Big game against the Cowboys next week that’s for sure.

Lose that and we’ll be in the shyte.

There are really 1 maybe 2 games we should win in the remaining rounds. The rest we should lose.
So either we get better, or we finish the season early

 

[Quigs]

Plodders gonna plod.

Today we were in the wrong weight division.

Pencil us in for 8th or 9th and just be happy that we got a start in this years race.

There are three current divisions.

Contenders, Pretenders and ones that should be shot. We are great pretenders.

 

[MilkShark]

How many weeks for kikau?

 

[shaggs]

How many weeks for kikau?

0

0

Seems lenient

 

[King Ben]

We need a Captain to be screaming at merkins on the field like Gal used to.

Fire the team up and get up players not putting in.

I wouldn't be opposed to putting Gal in the trainer's shirt and have him out there ripping into everyone, Alfie style.

 

[chewsta]

Bomber is building a very strong young side that WILL be very competitive for a long time. But anybody that doesnt recognise the Panthers as a certainty this year is kidding themselves! They are so far above and beyond everyone else its ridiculous. Hopefully Bomber will have a very similar team in the very near future. Good luck to the Pennies and their supporters, they are too good at the moment.

 

[Jimmy O]

eh, we will be lucky if we make top 8. If we do we shall be kicked out first game.
