Match Discussion: Round 5 vs Gold Coast @ Cbus Super Stadium

[drizzy drake]

It’s a Saturday arvo, I have better things to do. Same shit every year

 

[aqua_duck]

Our backline is unbelievably bad in all areas, defence, attack, errors, discipline, literally every facet

 

[perverse]

There's no excuse for this today, by the way. Pundits will point to our injuries and give us a pass, but the team as listed on paper was not that bad - and plenty better than many other lists we've fielded in the past 5 years that have given a good account of themselves.

 

[Loose Cannon]

Be nice if we made contact with our defence.

 

[Zoidberg]

30% of the ball, I get that we are behind. But no grit in defence and our errors are handing them all that ball.

 

[Seage]

Watson, Shibasaki and Toa on the edge is horrific in defence

 

[Frederick]

Now toa's time to stink it up

To'a has always stunk it up. Don't see the wraps everyone has on him - looks completely and utterly disinterested out there

You could cop losing against a decent Titans team if the effort and basic execution was there. But we are handing it to them.

Yeah, after all the hype on him and Best coming through the juniors... the gap between the 2 couldn't possibly be wider based on their first grade showings thus far. They're practically from different galaxies.

Dislocated shoulder for Randall

 

[Jono078]

It's the little things. Even Ponga passing off to Hunt there shows there's no will to get the job done.

If he ran that back with enthusiasm that lifts the entire team.

 

[Walk On Home Boy]

Why does our side have this consistent attitude problem? I mean even when the Bulldogs get belted every week, they're clearly having a go. We have 6-8 games a season where we literally don't show up.

Oh for sure, after last week I just wanted 1 thing and 1 thing only. For them to have a crack today. Instead we get this absolute garbage. It's hard to adequately express just how pathetic this is.

 

[Zoidberg]

Charge down off the feet. Nice

 

[Seage]

I remember hearing O'Brien say he didn't flog them in the pre-season. It shows. Our fitness and ability to concentrate is pathetic.

 

[Frederick]

Ball kicked into legs is apparently played at 6 again

 

[Tom155]

Sigh looking like this could be 50+

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Game over. We suck

 

[perverse]

Fifita could score 10 tries today if he wants.

 

[Zoidberg]

Pathetic
