Match Discussion: Round 2 vs Sydney @ Campbelltown Stadium

[Tigerm]

We can’t make the finals if we can’t score.
We have never been able to defend but now we can’t attack either.
We need an SOS to Reynolds. Either one of them

I said similar in the post below yours, we have the spots and cash to sign a goodun
But it’s too early to concede IMO

 

[Pezz70]

I’m certainly not conceding that after 2 games, but we will see

I’m like Stryker, only more eloquent, very frustrated and disappointed in what I’ve seen from the Tigers the last two weeks

 

[Speedy Gonzales]

At the game and the players honestly just look clueless. Like there is no actual plan, just pass and hope. Very concerning

Laurie is the only vocal one and he’s been here what a month and a bit?

 

[Smellmyfinger]

Joey is the worst signing this club has ever had. The guy is a cat. I won't watch another Tigers game when he is selected.

 

[Pezz70]

I ve been a long suffering supporter of Brooks but today was the final straw. I even watched YouTube highlights of him before today's game to pump me up. Sadly, it's done. He has to go.

If players are off the coach they should resign, they won’t because no one else will pay them what they’re on, the players need to STFU and do as the coach tells them, there’s some lazy players running around in that side. They need to put in, train hard, keep their mouths shut, get their diets right and play footy. There are half a dozen of them who give 100% every week, if I was Alex Twal I’d be going to those blokes and telling them how but you get out there and bust your arse every week like I do or go play in the park, that’s what leadership is about.

Positives:

* Laurie looks good
* Some of our forwards aren’t horrible
* I got out of the house for a few hours and away from 2 year old who hasn’t been outside in 3 days and is driving me insane


Negatives:

* There’s still 22 weeks to go

If players are off the coach they should resign

Who do they want as coach then? Todd Payton? The guy is two games in to his real first full time stint as an NRL coach and he already comes across as if he needs a break.

Some of the players should be looking at there own game rather than anyone else, especially the coach.

Sometimes I get so upset that I have to stop watching.Today this happened at the 30 to go mark. I came back with 5 to go.

Did u see Brookes 5th tackle option 2 metres from the line.. Brooks didn’t kick because he now knows there’s a risk he might kick it too far ..(this is what the commentator was saying)Instead he fell over and started crawling toward the line.. The commentator concluded that for Brooks that was prob his best attacking option.
Now I’ve seen and heard it all !

Wait for proof Pezz mate

They are also getting beat 12–18

Go to your bedroom!

Haha yeah that was a bit strong.
Sentiment remains though...I think he has very very little to offer.
Everything he does is slow and not in a good way i.e. he seems to have a lot of time ala the greats, no, he just moves in slow motion. Slow feet, slow thinker, slow reactions...just not first grade quality for mine and we have tried him in 3 positions now.

 

[Das Hassler]

We didn’t let Momo go for them he was part of the Dane Laurie deal. Laurie looks good.

That's true but not the whole picture....that Momo was considered inferior to either of our centres and told he wasn't in the frame when he consistently scores more fkn tries and defends better than they do is what shits me...he's doing the exact job we desperately need...only for Ivan. Cory Thompson's doing a pretty good job of rubbing our noses in our " forever a utility" assessment of him as well...more than anything we need mature consistency and 100% effort ..that's what we've shown the door with those two.

 

[Das Hassler]

Has Madge got a Plan B or C?

Probably...i'd guess Plan Broncos and Plan Cowboys

 

[TheDefinitionOfMadness]

Last year our 3 best attacking players were grant, marshall and nofo.

With 2 of them gone did anyone really expect much from us? I really can't see us cracking 24 points in any game this year. With our defence, 24 would be about the minimum we would need to score to have a hope.

Granted we have played 2 teams that are very much top 4 prospects, if not certainties, but it ain't looking good. As a matter of fact it's looking like a third world shit house.

I'd play BJ in the middle forwards. He'd still be shit and lazy but the chances of him getting seriously injured would increase exponentially. He may have to retire and we could some cap relief.

For us older blokes, in times like these we can go to our happy place. Mine is in a corporate box in 2005 on GF night being delivered drinks by a scantily clad Gal Gadot. With a massive amount of luck we may see 1 more premiership at some unknown time. For you younger people..............RUN!!!!!!

This year has wooden spoon written all over it. For the last 2 weeks we have looked like a bunch of seagulls chasing after a hot chip. There is nothing that can be done with our roster to improve on this.

[Front-Rower]

In hindsight it’s quite funny because the Roosters didn’t even really do anything special to beat us today. Keary stood deep, ran to the line, passed the ball to Tedesco out the back who attracted everyone which created an overlap. It was quite pathetic when you think about it.

Hahaaa gold

I don’t think we’ll get near the spoon. There’s some absolute garbage in the comp this year. I’m confident we’re better then the Dogs, Broncos, Cowboys. Probably in the next rung up with Saints (depressingly enough) and Manly if they get some players back.

Seagulls compete aggressively for a chip... we would just stare at it.
