GET RID OF MCRONE

[verfive]

he just lost the game he gave them a 7 tackle sequence GET F RID OF HIM

Bullshit. Were we watching the same game

 

[Dragons_Head]

He was very disappointing in the key periods of the game.
- Kicking the ball straight to Pearce on 4th tackle on the opposition line when we needed points
- not setting up for a field goal attempt on the last play of normal time and handing the ball to Vaughan to take a hit up.
- allowing Sele and Friz to kick when we were in good attacking position
- and the dreaded 7 tackle set kick. There was no need to take that risk at that point of the game. Got to play the percentages at that time of the game
I know we can't pin all the blame on him, he wasn't terrible by all means. He lacked support from Mann, but for a 150 game 'veteran' he should've had the experience to provided us with direction we needed.
The big question is who do we replace Widdop with? Mann played himself out of a spot, I don't think field is the option at this stage. And from all reports Nona has been hot and cold... fingers crossed Widdop isn't too far away

Next year is will be McCrone and Hutch as our reserve grade backup halves. Mann and Nona will be moved on.

Some very irrational forum members this evening

McCrone has been playing his best for some weeks now.

We will look to 2018 for a better 7

Mc Crone has been playing well in recent weeks, his kick was an inch too long and that's footy sometimes....

 

[Willow]

If only the field was 2 metres longer.

I'll say it now McCrone will move on not point in him staying.
Nona if not given a go will go back to the Q Cup.
Hutchison will probably be turned into a 13 if kept and he may move on anyway.

 

[St Tangles]

I am not going to crucify any of the players for today's loss.
Yes we lacked some polish when Widdop went off but the effort was there.

 

[Country Dragon]

For who? Mann was a flop in the halves so they had to move JDB into the halves.

That's complete bullshit, Dugan going off caused Mann's shift to the wing.
Without doubt, our worst period of the game!

 

[latemail]

I haven't heard a whisper from Dino the wanker for 6 weeks and now he opens his cock breath mouth with some shit like that
Wipe the cum from your chin
Mcrone is no world beater but he has done well and played his part in our run so far
Also very sound defensively
So f**k off you imposter

 

[barry]

Can someone delete this stupid f*ckong thread

And as for the OP learn the game of Rugby league you idiot

 

[TheOnlyTeam]

Pearce lost us the game.

 

[Mickthedragon]

This bloke is a complete douche,don't know why we bother with his crap.
Cannot fault Mcrone for an unlucky kick thats an inch from being perfect.
Thats footy,sometimes and we need to roll with it. Every bloke with the red v put 110% in today and it didn't go our way but the effort was outstanding!

 

[Ted bartolo]

If we looking to the future and we're trying to win a comp we should have tried Mann Duffy or,Field.with Widdop and given one of them a chance 5 or games.Macrone had his chance last year and at best was average.​

That's complete bullshit, Dugan going off caused Mann's shift to the wing.

Mann missed about 100 tackles playing 5/8th. If Mann was playing well at 5/8th they wouldn't have moved him to the least important position on the field. They would have put Thompson to centre where he has played before, Sims to his second row position and had either Lafai or Aitken move to the wing.

I'm one of Manns biggest fans but he was not working at 5/8th this game what so ever, be it because its not his best position or the fact he hasn't trained there in about 5 years.

Yep your spot on...like any competitor and passionate supporter I hate losing but when the boys put in like they did today you just have to cop it on the chin.....I hate golden point because the best team on the day doesnt always win know matter whos playing...today it went against us, hopefully next time we get the chocolates

 

[Gareth67]

I could compare loosing both Widdop and Dugan ( for a short period of time for Duges ) similar to the Storm loosing Smith and Cronk , or any teams chief playmakers .

Their absence totally knocked our attack about , and it was only a lionhearted , although somewhat disjointed , effort that kept the team in the match .

As we know , McCrone had the kicking duties after Widdops retirement , the man attempted to get the teams attack moving , but unfortunately did not possess the same skills as his captain . You can't hang the poor bloke for trying .

 

[Lovemedragons]

As well as all the other comments supporting McCrone I would also add his defence was important too.

 

[Minh]

Mc Crone tried to pin them deep in there own quarter but it back fired that time....had the kick pulled up we probably win the match.....

His defense has been outstanding and last week ran down Feldt......
