Watson just isn't viable without Pearce. Every week we use language like "showing good signs" or "looking dangerous", but he is the epitome of 1 dimensional. There is nothing to his game except running.

I'm starting to think that Kidley was a better 5/8th than Watson.

Forget defense, kicking game is clearly the biggest problem with this team.

Aassive breeze at their backs, and not one kick capitalised on it. Then that inability to find the in goal close to the line.

That try was a back breaker. In a game where we've matched them but been our own worst enemy, that hurt

From the angle they used he was offside. I don’t know how they can say he was on.

Is anyone getting sick of the commentators mentioning all of the players that "love scoring tries" against us? Every team in the comp has a player who has racked up a shitload of tries against us in the past half decade.

Abysmal first half. As dumb as we've played all season. We will be slaughtered in the second 40

Keareys 6 tries in last 3 games was laughable.

Our brave defence is all that's making this close in any way. If Melbourne break us mentally with any more points the flood gates will open.

He’s certainly got no idea when he’s got to be an actual playmaker.

He’ll add something when Pearce is back and he can just run but he’s a liability currently.

Cogger is shit but he’s our third choice halfback so it’s kind of expected (not that Lamb is any better).

I just hope he's on a small contract, because I can't think of another good reason to keep going with such a limited player in your halves. He needs to develop something else in his game.

They’ve got a massive breeze in the second half so the flood gates will probably open regardless.
