There is a culture of picking juniors on x-factor rather than looking at the whole picture.

Hard workers with good skill sets that want to work on their craft turn 16 years olds into nrl players

Hazelton seems to have lost all leg power?! Mulitalo was so bad against Feldt -You'd think at HT Fitzgibbon would have told him to mark up on Feldt the Cows biggest try scorer - 3 tries that weren't from kicks is inexcusable

When are we gonna talk about how much of a liability Ronaldo is? Defensively horrendous, caught off his man what 3, 4 times tonight? And countless other times this season and last? Can’t read the play.

Scores tries sure but the tries he scores are nothing that any other winger doesn’t do. I have been well off him for some time now and I’d like to see SS given a shot for a few weeks. Ronaldo can f**k off for mine.

Lots of other issues in the squad obviously but Ronaldo is a glaring problem that has been exposed over and over again without accountability. Get him out.

Nup. He was literally MOM in his last game.

We have bubba and hunt in that side and we win that game.
We're not a great side, without Nicho we’re a 6-8 team at best. But at the moment we don’t have anyone sitting in ressies that improve that. Maybe next year the likes of Ison challenge the status quo and AFB certainly lifts a problem area. But it is what it is for now

We are so lucky that Feldt was penalised for dragging back Iso in the in goal area or dickhead Ronnie would of been credited with four Feldt try assists.

Did 'youse' see Ronnie's attempt to drop kick the ball back over his own dead ball line. It was far can comical.

The team silenced there critics last night lol..
"Everyone that comes into our team is there to do a job and it's given Daniel Atkinson the chance to show what he's capable of. We all love Nicho but this whole thing of us being the Cronulla Nicho Hynes Sharks is unfair to us, but also to him because there's 16 other guys who are out there with him."

So, the narrative has gotten under their skin.

Start the 2025 pre season now.

More like there is STILL a culture of picking kids from clubs on the right side of the tracks. Another reason our pathways are phuqued. The CSJRL control the pathways not the district club. It's always been like that. Control from the bottom up.

I think I'll watch the chicks game
It was way more interesting from what I’ve read on here.
I gave up Kayo a few weeks back and have pretty much muted the NRL for the season…. And we are in the top 4, go figure.
That’s how diabolical they are going. I can’t even justify the need to go to Souths at home Saturday night.
Appreciate the posts people and I feel your pain. It justifies my need not to watch the game. It does your head in.
And again, Ronnie get a hair cut

I'm with you. Haven't watched a game for weeks and havent missed it.

I was just getting frustrated and angry, watching the same predictable drivel week in week out. I'm not a great football genius so if I can see the flaws they must be big, and the fact that they remain unadressed led me to say f&*k it.

Compounding that is I am finding league near unwatchable. Turning into soccer with every second tackle a player staying down waiting for a BS penalty.

Shame really as previously I'd have already booked my Vegas ticket since I'll be in US anyway that weekend

Doesn't help him that iro defence is shit and same with tieg. If they had a system in place that was good , he would be great.
