Match Discussion: Round 11 vs Broncos @ Suncorp Stadium

[Tiger05]

The question is who was our worst. I think it was Edwards because he is just missing key tackles.

How we enjoying the new halves pairing boys?

Littlejohn & Rankin....

Looking forward to the rest of 2017...

I know Cleary had little choice but jesus christ, surely there is someone out there who at least resembles a half.

 

[WT Unity]

The sad thing was that I think they were having a go...I think they were actually trying! But the majority of them just don't have what it takes. As far as 2018 goes - Lovett gone, Edwards gone, Grant gone, Rankin gone, Littlejohn gone and Sue, Aloiai and Naiquama (he's been alright tonight though) probably all on borrowed time!

Taylor f**ked the Tigers worse then Bennett gutted the Knights and thats saying something.

 

[Clifferd]

Too many crucial errors

Lovett drop = try

Tedesco intercept then sin bin = 2 tries

 

[Tiger Ted]

Massive mismatch.A state cup team vs an elite rep team.Its going to b one heck of a long winter.

 

[WT Unity]

Yeah it' s the result of a team where the coach and management had no idea about recruitment and building a roster

 

[WT Unity]

Former coach i should say...

It was Moses right?

He was the cause of all our problems....

Jesus.... How many people are gong to be turning up to watch them the rest of the season...

This could get embarrassing...

 

[BrotherJim05]

This was expected. Majority of this team won't be here next year and replaced with rep standard, seasoned NRL first graders.

 

[dallas1]

another "flat" 5 yard forward pass at bronco stadium for a 4 pointer. lets send out the wide recievers wests, who's the quarterback

 

[BuffaloRules]

Just an observation....

Tedesco is looking heavy... He appears to be carrying a bit around the buttocks....

Needs to lose a few kg's IMO

 

[macnaz]

I take it Woods is only playing tonight to try n prove his fitness for SOO. Cos he ain't looking that flash. So far I've only seen him take the 3rd or 4th tackle hit ups or trying to play as a half and off-loading at the line. Unless that's his normal go??

Nup thats his normal go this year

Hunt would have been the best option but was injured last week.
Yep Rankin is still rank , ill give him points for trying though

 

[dallas1]

Naiquama (he's been alright tonight)

Watch him every week. As a coach I'd have him as my bench back. Always gives 200% .

 

[Clifferd]

Well we're shit what's new

 

[Vic Mackey]

If we don't have better back rowers then Lovett and Edwards in nsw cup I'll give it away. MCK shits over them from a great height. Surely Eisenhuth or Marsters would give us more impact?

 

[Tiger05]

I don't get the hate for Naiqama. That guy always puts in.

I actually think we can compete but we have too many shit plays in us. Dumb penalties, dropped balls, easy missed tackles etc.

LittleJohn and Rankin also aren't first grade halves.

I can't wait until Woods is gone. Tedesco has ability but he is trying too hard and just playing dumb.

I thought Lovett was fine. Chee-Kam last week has some shockers and that is what is stopping us from competing.

 

[Old Time Tiger]

I'm with you WT Unity but besides the former coach, you have to include the previous management.

Loyalty to their juniors is fine but they are not all 1st graders, case in point is Lovett.
He tried as he always has but he is simply not a 1st grader and his stats do look good in reserves against reserve graders. To think that the oxygen thief of a coach last year kept playing him and playing him.

No Moses so I was happy, meant 2 new guys into the halves rather than the 1 we expected and it's not like the two have played every game in the reserves together anyway.

Rankin, tried and perhaps too hard tonight, whilst he may train with the main squad, it is different to playing with them, I would have been happier if it was a catch and pass game for him though.
Littlejohn is simply a reserve grader, it's as simple as that.

The forwards, they are too small and it took the new coach a minute to see that (can't wait for next year) but it's not the guys out there fault that they are typically smaller as a pack against their opposition. Even when we have signed big guys they just don't seem big and angry enough, e.g. Grant.

I didn't expect much tonight and do not expect much for the rest of the year, there will be games when we are all going to be very happy but many more when we won't.

It's full time and thank god for that. At least we don't have to watch them next weekend.
