L6 v Manly.

[TruSaint]

Where the fook is Liddle ? He got us back into the game.

 

[thebigredv]

And if this effory was on show against parra and titans things may have been better

Honestly effort is not the issue this year.

We dead set try hard, run out of steam and ideas very quickly though.

The effort has been there and that's what makes it all the worse.

 

[carltonsouth79]

Kyle Flanagan caught 5m with ball three times when he was given the role of controlling the game.

We see it from him every week. He is just average trying to look like a star.

Will Shane mention it in the presser? No because family is more important than the 100 year old Dragons.

It is obvious he is not an organiser. At 0-6 Reed has to be given a shot

 

[Number of the Beath]

i wouldn’t have replaced Lids when we need points

Yep.
If you have to send Cooked back on put him at lock. Push Stewart to left edge, Luce to middle and get Guler off too.

 

[Dea]

Lids comes on because the coach is forced to play him. The attack improves and we get back into the game. Why would you then move him for Cooke?

 

[shiloh dc]

Incredibly inept last tackle option - chasing the game and we put up an uncontested bomb.

Extra pace in out halves we'd be carving Manly up.

 

[Redvdragons21]

Illawarra is the issue.

 

[thebigredv]

Incredibly inept last tackle option - chasing the game and we put up an uncontested bomb.

The human side of me feels sorry for Shane but he has proven to be a very poor coach and a terrible thing to happen to our club. This loss tonight is pure ego and our club have so much to answer for in allowing it to play out

Nowhere to hide now

 

[Number of the Beath]

This sport is f*cked.
Commentators bang on about the onus being on the ball-carrier and then the bunker rules a strip for that!

 

[carltonsouth79]

Incredibly inept last tackle option - chasing the game and we put up an uncontested bomb.

That’s the only end of set option we have had for the whole season

 

[Number of the Beath]

Extra pace in out halves we'd be carving Manly up.

It's not pace so much as timing and smarts.
Of which we have none.

 

[Stewartliddle]

Couldn't beat Manly who were very poor tonight. Unreal

 

[carltonsouth79]

Our kicking game is abysmal

 

[RedVDave]

The human side of me feels sorry for Shane but he has proven to be a very poor coach and a terrible thing to happen to our club. This loss tonight is pure ego and our club have so much to answer for in allowing it to play out

Just make Dean Young coach already at the very least he will drop Kyle.

The club finished 15th and made almost no changes what else did they expect? we haven't adopted to the modern game we will lucky to win more than 3 games this year and neither of those will come in the next 2 weeks.

 

[shiloh dc]

That’s the only end of set option we have had for the whole season

Shane's inability to recruit players for unders and his horrific gameplan focussing on power and monotonous attacking is why he is dead man walking.

 

[possm]

This team is just not coached properly.

 

[Stewartliddle]

Kyle is easily the worst HB in the comp. Has the 7 but always dodges kicking duties so all the pressure is on Atko. It's a joke, anything to make Kyle look better. He had a shocker tonight, at least Atkinson has a go

 

[Dea]

Last tackle, Sloan gets in position to chase and the kicker pauses, Sloan is now in an off side position and can’t contest. then the kick goes up. Last tackle options and skills are, and have been for years, poor.

 

[carltonsouth79]

Presser will be; can’t fault the effort, we beat ourselves, I’ll continue to work hard….
