At least they got the club correct, our ugly lot, they wouldn’t even have managed that.
Like young Dufty having to ring people up after co vid bbq gate?
Agree! The continue narrative around fitness is off the mark imo. I honestly think the most important thing in the game and what we should be recruiting and developing is situation /game intelligence, particular in pressure situations. Top teams have this character - we don’t! This isn’t one player’s responsibility or the one coach it’s the whole squad!

If the Knights beat the Titans today Gareth they will be playing the Dolphins next week and the winner will get the 8th spot. We will be playing the Raiders and the result will be insignificant as far as the semis go but significant to have a win to make us feel better for the off season. Haha!I have noticed a few posts where members have mentioned that our fitness is not what it should be - well you are correct about that . However we need to remember that most of our ageing big men simply do not possess the same stamina as do the younger players - the frailty of the human body as it becomes older .
Hence the reason why more emphasis should be placed upon recruiting younger players and also ensuring that our graded youth awaiting promotion to the top grade do receive that opportunity sooner rather than later .
I am merely attempting to shed some light upon part of the reason why the Dragons were so thoroughly demoralised yesterday . Many other reasons of course , one of which seems the captain has no true traits that a captain requires - no leadership qualities whatsoever .
But there’s always next week fellas , so let’s get behind our boys and hope that Flanagan has them in the right frame of mind so they can score a big win over the Raiders .
By the way - best ensure that you all cut your fingernails short before the game otherwise you may well have none by games end .
Yeh, but if we don’t make the mistakes we don’t use up as much petrol; and many of the young guys are contributing to the mistakes, particular in defensive reads.I have noticed a few posts where members have mentioned that our fitness is not what it should be - well you are correct about that .

Gareth since players noggins are protected more than ever before the type of player we are producing through the system now are the 80min type. Players that would blow up the beep test.I have noticed a few posts where members have mentioned that our fitness is not what it should be - well you are correct about that .
