Embarrassed by Dishlickers and Rudolf is trash

[Peach & Apricot]

Ever since Rudolf returned from injury and rejoined the forward rotation he has been abysmal, especially as a starting front rower. No coincidence that we've started poorly with him in the run-on side.

Tonight he cost us the game. We were up 14-12 and on the 3rd tackle he should've just accepted the tackle around 35-40m out, instead he blindly flicks a stupid offload backwards 20m and we lose all momentum and field position.

Then he gives away the penalty that lets them level scores with 5 minutes remaining.

Hynes' confidence is shot - missed 2 goalkicks and that absolute sitter of a field-goal from about 15m right in front. Embarrassing. It's also too predictable that he will take the shots. Why not use him as a decoy and let the likes of Trindall, Katoa, Kennedy, Brailey be able to take the shot as option kickers?

All teams now know that the Sharks can't defend offloads so the way to beat them is to offload a lot. Yet for some reason our guys don't know how to offload smartly if at all.

Trindall kicked the first missed field goal attempt.

 

[Bookie]

They can offload … they’ve never had a support runner … since 2009.

 

[Eion]

Rudolph was awful and nicho has the yips. We lost that game, dogs were ordinary.

 

[shaggs]

Trindall kicked the first missed field goal attempt.

That went through but was disallowed because of kaufusi obstruction.

Who was as bad as Rudolph

Bring back Brett Kearney

Who was as bad as Rudolph

No one.

 

[shaggs]

No one.

Kaufusi was a close second.

f**k off Toe Bee. I'd rather see 16 named next week than have that merkin play again.

Who was as bad as Rudolph

I was. I expected them to bounce out of the bye and belt the Dogs.

 

[Quigs]

It wasn't a penalty when Tobes got pinged. Should never of been awarded.

Agreed he was shit. I said to old mate whilst watching the first half that it was good to see Toby had finally perfected the Fifita flop from years gone by. The Refs love it.

Honestly, that is a waste of $500k. Completely out played by nuffies like Max King. Move him on and re-sign Williams.

 

[eddiesmith]

We played shit and copped some horrendous calls, the penalty at the end because the Bulldogs player ran away from the ball to hit a stationary Sharks player was just typical of the calls.

What’s most remarkable is the ruck infringements, he called a lot against us and yet they only conceded one and it was 10 seconds before half time…

Also it’s quite ridiculous a player can be reported yet not even give away a penalty…

He’s good for media and fans find his funny like Benny Hill, just a bit more woke though when he wants to be

Never trust a personality player. The puff pieces cover an ordinary player. Remember the Wolfman....

 

[Ozzi_78]

I’m glad no one thinks Nicho has been affected by origin. FFS I knew he’d lose it mentally. Trash.

He is ice cool and clinical in clutch moments..

 

[glenmoresharkie]

I called Toby being trash like 18 months ago and I got shot down. Called names. Was told he was good at “his role”. He’s good at nothing.

He’s f**king shit. He is slow, lethargic, lazy, unfit and offers absolutely nothing except penalties, missed tackles and crucial errors. He may be the worst player in the NRL. I absolutely detest seeing him run out for us. I don’t care what he does for charity or on a podcast. Get him out of this club right now cos he is so far from the standard of an NRL player it’s not even funny.

Nicho? Well, mental demons have caught up and I’m afraid he is done.

 

[eddiesmith]

I was about to book my holidays and come up for the Warriors game, but f**k I might wait…

Really if this side has anything in it the next 2 weeks they need to run up the scoreboard and belt the Titans and Tigers heading in to the next Bye. Then there might be some hope, but this mid season slump is concerning, it’s too early.
