Souths had a crack.

We were shit.

The ref set diversity hires back 10 years. The Wilton "played at" was 10/10 bad. Like pulled aside at half time bad. Then the Souths player grounding the ball with his f**kING ELBOW between the ball and the goal line was INSANE. You cannot possibly use her again. Fitz needs to unload about this shit. It was a shocking game but should have been 14-0.

I enjoyed how Nicho answered the questions btw. So did Cronk who called out Nicho was bang on his assessment. As Cronk said Broncos lost to Eels, Warriors lost to Titans. Wayne just broke a record for losses - souths really had a crack. They made f**k all metres. We were marching down the field. Souths put in.

South’s tactics were to slow down and spoil the ruck. Then jam the edges by being offside, frustrate us and defend for their lives. Hence why we ended up with so many 6 agains and penalties. It nearly worked. Fortunately we stuck to it and defended ok for the most part. Their second try wasn’t a try and the first try came off the back of a ridiculous 6 again call from a ‘charge down.’

They should have had a couple of others in the bin for the amount they deliberately gave away.

Why can’t Fitz see it?!?!

I’m trying really hard to like him, but…

I honestly think he is just too proud to give in to popular opinion.

You can like Fitz, just dislike that he is coach.

Agree on your last point

I think he was just totally gassed.

It’s just his age and NRL match fitness - he is not slow.
Yes he was gassed.

I said this a few weeks ago but Fitz and the coachign staff went to nsw cup a few weeks back with the view to pick a centre. Gabriel at the 60th minute mark was on all fours. Couldn't stand up and was gassed in cup. They wanted to bring him up but decided it wasn't fair on him. These young blokes have had injuries at the worst possible times and it has hurt us.

If that was Gabriel instead of Vea'ila we score
We are blooding the wrong centre

Gabriel is seen as a much higher upside than CV.

Did she send souths back to play the ball at 1 stage because she hadn't called last tackle? Also the penalty for wighton where he dived in the first half.

She makes Ash Klein look like a genius

Hooked Hohepa after ten minutes (ran 4 times for 30 odd metres) to put on Atkinson for 21 minutes who ran 4 times for 23 metres.

Thing is, that production isn’t even surprising, that’s completely normal shit production for him in the middle. We all know it, except our coach he insists on picking Atkinson and playing him.

plus why pick a utility in 18 to play him if we cop an illegal hia?? Was he worried Atkinson would be knocked out?

I said it a number of times during the game in here and probably 50 times to the dog in the room.

But when you know you have a team screaming up to put pressure on your ball playing options.

Why the f**k did we not either grubber in behind or look for a cross field shallow / low kick early.

We are so risk averse as a footy team. Honestly if they are ever in a situation where they need to pull a play out of their ass to win a game, expect an unders ball to Nikora or a nothing pop gun short side bomb that no one will contest. We have nothing else.

All it takes is one player to come out the line and our players shit themselves because they're unable to read the game and only able to run that 1 robotic backline play. Though if trindall did try a kick or a long pass he'd probably throw an intercept or flog it over the deadball line, he is really playing like utter crap.
