He says the team is responding and there's moments we try our backsides off.

He said we have the right people in the organisation to turn things around - specifically talking about staff.

He says the team is responding and there's moments we try our backsides off.

So now he's just flat-out lying?

FMD, what a load of bollocks

Condescending as always from Jabba the hut.

Moments. Football games are about 80 mins Adam! What a dope.

Re: Our two recent signings "#1 they're 2 fit players and competitors and that's what we're looking for in our club".

This should tell you why we have Kurt Mann on a large contract.

(Not having a go at those signings, just thought it was funny that you could link those words back to Mann)

Moments. Which equates to about 45 seconds of game time.

Pretty grim stuff today. That sad thing is it probably doesn’t make our worst 3 home performances this season.

Both wingers tried their asses off and that cut out pass from Thompson for the try had me drawing wood. Other than that I’ve got nothing. The Heineken’s went down good.

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Hahahaha

 

[Jono078]

I'd welcome a game in the mining jerseys at this stage. Those colours might bring me more joy than recent outings.

 

[Zoidberg]

Just putting a big black marker line over the top of the pencil line crossing out all hope I had for the season.
It’s actually pathetic how little improvement we show after so many terrible performances this year.
Maybe I will jump on the Dolphins bandwagon next year. They will be the closest team to where I live and can’t be more embarrassing than this rabble.

 

[Spot On]

Matt Croker just had his first run after 28 minutes on the field and in the last tackle of the game.

We have such huge structure issues and I'm prepared to say players don't know their roles and this is what leads to lack of confidence.

AOB has to go. This can't keep going on!

Nothing in the NRL is surer.


There are absolutely no structures or direction in this side with the ball since R3.

Nathan Brown clone.

Our attack coach is absolutely clueless and out of his depth.

O’Brien had a decade under Bellamy.

Zilch learnt from it.

Did Cooper Cronk end up calling a spade a spade today or did he talk around the elephant in the room to protect his mate????

#1 they're 2 fit players and competitors and that's what we're looking for in our club".

such a high bar indeed

I paid over $90 on tickets and a 4hr round trip to take my son to just his second footy match and that’s what they dish up. Spent the last 12 months trying to convince him to follow Newcastle and not Melbourne, but might just give up and save him a life of pain.

AOB is quickly losing the playing group

 

[Jono078]

Some stats I find a little interesting.

AOB only used 6 interchanges today, 1 obviously a forced one.

Our play-the-ball speed was 3.14s vs Panthers 4.03. This begs the question, how did the Panthers make almost 1900m to our 1300m when we should have had a more set defence than them, judging by play-the-ball speed?

We had 41 missed tackles to their 31, suggesting we should have had plenty of opportunities to score.

Panthers weren't even truly on today and did it easy.

and that's it really, I can handle a loss if I see them bleeding for the jersey and busting themselves to win. It's painful to see how pathetic & pea hearted they are.

Why Melbourne? Make his bed time 3 hours earlier if he supports those pricks.

I didn’t get a choice and my kids won’t either.

it’s a hereditary thing, like asthma and high blood pressure.

Which you also get from supporting Newcastle
