Match Discussion: Round 7 vs Parramatta @ McDonald Jones Stadium, New Lambton

[Jono078]

IF we take the early 2 points against the Storm next week I might have to check myself into James Fletcher.

 

[Zoidberg]

Please boo this team off the field at the end of the game.

This is as bad as we've looked in the last 10 years, including the spoon years. This team has given up and is rotten to the core. Ponga resigning... massive mistake. Why could everyone else see that except our club?

AOB dead man walking.

 

[perverse]

The entire coaching staff not just AOB

Sure, and half the squad too.

Inside ball to the noted speedster Dan Safiti smh

 

[aqua_duck]

another set with 4 one out runs and the only variation was an inside ball to a prop

 

[Jono078]

Why hasn't Clifford even attempted a wicked bomb? He's been very Pearce-like today, without the leadership as well.

 

[Mr_Knightside]

I'm not even watching this but it shits me how bad we seem to be on both sides of the ball. It's not as if we're failing to score but keeping the score respectable. Keeping an eye on the score and every time I take another look the Eels have another try on the board. The floodgates could open up here, Eels by 40+

You know why they're doing it, right? Because they tried to play expansive in the first half and looked like absolute knobheads trying - so they've been told to simplify it. Sadly there's no footwork or drive in the pack either - and our service is dead set poor from hooker and halves - so that doesn't work either.

 

[Seage]

A chip bomb, that'll save us.

Why is ponga at dummy half on last tackle

 

[aqua_duck]

I'm pretty sure there are teams that have had high intensity in captains run

Almost like it's coached.

Almost like it's coached.

The first few games he played he did nothing but spiral bombs. Now lucky to see one a game. Has to be coached

AOB dead man walking.

The spoon years were easier to stomach because those players at least were trying their guts out but were hopelessly outclassed each and every week.

This team has some class in it but the football has been coached out of us.

 

[The Axe of Druss]

We 100% need to move Ponga to the halves, im convinced of it now. He needs to be at 1st receiver to give us any chance of using his talents effectively

I have supported Clune since his signing but he just isnt offering us anything much right now, maybe the knee is effecting him i dunno

Question is who goes to fullback

 

[perverse]

I wonder if Ponga is still in the cooling off period of his contract. He'd have to be tempted to give Wayne a call and say sorry.

 

[aqua_duck]

A few times Sisagi has had his arms free for an offload and the dummy half is waiting for a play the ball instead of backing up in support

 

[Tom155]

Can’t even get the simplest things right

Question is who goes to

I'd take hoy at this point
