Like I said earlier in this thread, the club shit started with the punting of DA, the club shit is still amongst us and the club shit will not go away until we go back and clean up all the club shit and the club shit makers, this means at least half of the present board of directors (preferably they all resign immediately) have to go and Stephen Kearney must resign as head coach too. Pride is a most terrible brain state. If they are presently without reason and logic we fans, members and staff have to cause an overnight mutiny. It's up to us to stop the rot. It's obvious they can't!

Definetley a turning point for mine back to back dumbarse penalties by Poore, how he gets picked every week is beyond me and taking off Hindmarsh I don't get it. Hopefully things turn around for you blokes soon.

Thanks mate.

I hope you merkins keep getting belted.

Yeah allgood dropped the ball.That was a huge turning pont.So basicaly if we make one error in a game than its a turning point??
The dogs had droped it 3-4 times prior to that

The problem is some of our players have no faith in others to do their job in defence.

What this means is that unless we complete our sets and keep the opposition away from our tryline we will hemorrhage points.

Our defence is shit because of lack of trust between the players. This is why you have players coming out of the line and moving up at different speeds and doing their own thing. There's no way the coaching staff have them doing that at training.

We are poorly coached defensively. The reason they are running out of the line is because they are panicking, in a desperate attempt to shut the opposition down.

It's almost like they don't train together all week. They've had 18 months to train together and it's up to the coach to set that platformm and whatever he is doing in training sessions just isn't working.

Statement 1,

The reason they are running out of the line is because they are panicking, in a desperate attempt to shut the opposition down.

and statement 2.

How does statement 2 support statement 1?

Statement 1 implies a tactical issue; statement 2 implies attitude. So which is it?

Agree. We were leaking a point a minute yet Hindy was warming the bench. WTF ?

That's easy. Both.

If it's both at once then how could you know if it was either?

Deductive reasoning mate. You can only prove one hypothesis by disproving or otherwise eliminating the other. And that's ignoring the potential influence of every other variable.

The fact is we don't know why, and the only thing that's useful is putting forward potential theories. Repeating the same one over and over makes this place boring, and only encourages hysteria in the monkeys that find it the simplest and most emotionally satisfying.

I'll interpret this for the kids at home.

Blah, blah, blah, blah.

Statement 2 doesn't need to support statement 1.

The players seem lost in defence, so they panick and make rash decisions.

Did you watch the tigers game????? Everyone knows benji and Farah crab sideways, looking for a runner. Why did we let them????? Our defensive structure should of been to give them no room, yet we gave them all the room in the world.
