Game Day v Tigers

[Kornstar]

Will I????

And you have ever criticised a player ever??? Get off your high horse.

What a dreadful half of football, we will be lucky to win another game this year if this is our best.

I rarely criticise players, especially rookies. It's a team sport and more often than not when the team loses it is because they just aren't playing as one.

We look poorly coached in attack and the thing that was supposed to keep us in games (defence) is absolutely abysmal!

 

[Eelogical]

I don't know why we bothered packing the scrum quickly, we've got f**k all idea what to do inside the opponents 20.

Yes we do. Give it back to the opposition.

 

[Parramatta1947]

We are specials for the spoon - even Newcastle have more organisation and threats than us

 

[Incorrect]

Teams are rolling through us down the middle at will, every week... We're making ordinary teams look very good. Coaching needs looking at...in 2015 we spent the year worrying about whether or not Foran would come the following year and basically wrote the season off... In 2016, Foran and cap disasters screwed the year so we looked ahead to 2017... Now we're supposedly about to name some significant signings for 2018 so we're supposed to continue this groundhog day existence if looking forward to "next year"....

 

[parra-matters]

Moses won't change us much at present, our defence is the problem it's crap, lazy players, players rushing up.
We are not playing as a team.
Todays tactic seems to be get the ball out to Jennings or Semi. Semi keeps over running Jennings in support.
Pretty poor performance so far and if we don't fix our attitude in defence we will lose 12+

 

[Eelogical]

What happened after Round 2? Group drinking of the bathwater?

The spent some time in Queensland.

 

[Bazal]

Execution is our major issue and one unforgivable missed tackle compounded it, despite the ridiculous bemoaning of the entire side as soft or whatever.

Three forward passes with the line open (for two of them) or plenty of attacking play left, plus Semi running into touch on the first play off a scrum. Do the fking basics right and we'd have probably scored five or six tries.....

 

[Noise]

No one else has even close to the skills to play there. Brown has started NRL games at hooker. It's not a perfect solution but again, who do you put there? Beau Scott, who models his attacking game on Daniel Wagon? Vave, who can't bend down to acting half over his gut? Alvaro? Penis Hands Terepo?

Maybe we should move a half there?

It's not BAs fault King and Kaysa are made of fine Austrian crystal, or that IDG has taken enough knocks to the head to kill a bull elephant.

It's BAs fault he signed those three hookers. It's BA fault he signed middle forwards who consistently lose the ruck.

And don't get me started with Taka at 5/8

 

[parra-matters]

I'm sorry but i think BA made a massive mistake re-signing K.Pritchard, yeah he gives his all and tries 100% but he is not a NRL hooker.

 

[Oscarman]

The spent some time in Queensland.

That's even worse.

Taka is no 5/8. Should have left Gutho there and moved Hoffman to FB.

 

[Jake the snake]

Can't believe I'm watching this bullshit. They look so unfit in the second part of every half. Tigers have nothing yet we are making them look like superstars

It's BA's fault we have gone into this year with the current hooker stocks.

Under 20s guys have to be called upon.
Young yes but no other option

 

[Snoochies]

They are putting in an effort at least.

The player went into the match injured. It's the coaches fault for not having a Plan B.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

I missed what happened to Pritchard. Is he off injured, for the game? Or hooked?

I agree with that 100%, we were struggling with th pace of the game after 15 mins.

We look so unfit it's not funny.

 

[hindy111]

We are u fit cause we signed a guy who is old and past it in the cougar.
There would be younger guys with new ideas who would be better suited then a pesnioner.

 

[eels_fan]

In previous years, our defence and fitness has been good, that's kind of been the foundation of Arthur's gameplan. This year, we seem inept, their is not structure to our defence, every second player is running out of the line trying to put a a hit on or shut down the play, but the players either side are being exposed every time
