Too many late in the tackle count penalty's are killing us, Ashley Klein is a disgrace of a Ref, wanted to give Johnson a try when he was clearly held up and Elijah makes a great tackle around the legs and is immediately told to release, these ref's have no feel for the game and obviously have never played.

It’s a shame we went out that way but overall the season had more positives then negatives for mine, which is what I’m trying to focus on.

Tonight was always a chance of happening. One team at full strength with a heap of motivation v a team missing some keys players who had all motivation crushed only 4 days ago. How do you guys feel in your last 20 mins of work before you clock off for the year? That’s what happened tonight.

Between the 33rd-80th minute we had 25% of the ball, that’s unheard of. Any team would have wilted with that. It was one of those games where everything that could go wrong did go wrong.

I’m obviously disappointed but can accept it. Maybe it’s because I had a good day at work and and am onto my 3rd Johnnie Walker Blue Label but im not too bothered. Come round 1 2019 tonight’s score line will mean the same as if we won 51-10.

As the late great Australian cricket captain, Bill Woodfull said, "There was only team allowed to play rugby league out there today".

Bloody disgrace, how they allowed this pricks to be tackled take two steps sideways & one step forward is beyond me - it should be a penalty.

Possession about 75%, 25%. Talk about the run off the green.

Personally dont care but I really think they disgraced the Jersey tonight. They had one last game to end the season on a high, I've never seen a WT team dog it as hard in that 2nd half

The walking off the mark was ridiculous, then they Pulled one of the twins up...in the 75th minute :joy:

Souths are a strong team but they’re a good times side. They play well when everything is allowed to go well for them. This was allowed tonight.

The constant walking off the mark was frustrating,but not the difference by any means. We got belted. That makes the fact that souffs lost to us earlier that much funnier

Oh absolutely, didn’t cost us at all. Plus I’ve always said if you see them being allowed to do it then you do it aswell, no point whining that they’re being allowed to get away with it.

Just saw the stats...what a mismatch

They ran for over 1km more than us
We made more than 200 tackles than them
And missed 50 more tackles

Talk about a tank job. Mitch Moses would be proud

I wouldnt read into that much if I was a souths fan. We literally did not turn up

Only part of the game I enjoyed was Sam Burgess walking up the tunnel....he looked back when he heard Farah calling from the bench "You weak cat, you f##ken weak cat."

Gotta feel for Robbie.
He came back here to play first grade and try and help his beloved club make the finals. This hasnt worked out and now he has to watch the side he was with and contributing to march towards the GF, possibly the premiereship.

I feel sorry for fans who pay their hard earned to watch these pretenders dish up this cr@ap.We don't expect them to be perfect every week but we do expect them to have a dig and too many times this year and in previous years we haven't. We need a change in culture and badly

They couldn’t even compete against a shithouse titans at LO on a glorious Sunday arvo in front of a full house when a win wouldve been so crucial re any aspiration to make the 8.

This rabble is on track to become an irrelevancy in the NRL ! The way we r going it won’t surprise if we r forced to relocate elsewhere in OZ in 5-10 yrs time.
