Lol

Love how everyone comes out of the woodwork to lay the boot in once we've been embarrassed.

That was a diabolical performance from the Eels, but kudos to Manly - way too good for us.

Lot of soul-searching to be done out west...

The most concerning fact about todays game was our complete lack of defensive attitude from the first 5 minutes, which resulted in the performance we got for the next 75 mins.

For a team that success was built around defensive attitude and being allowed to consistently play the ball incorrectly that has now been outlawed in the game, it doesn't auger well for good season in 2018.
x100000000000 this.

You can handle a few early season loses but they was absolutely garbage. No intensity from the opening whistle and this was after the coach gave them a rev up.

A few blokes looked to have jumped the shark in the off-season and some strange and poor team and bench decisions from the coach.

Started off with a lack of effort and desire, and didn't get any better from there.

That's why we have become such losers. We cop this shit every year. An absolute thrashing and we somehow need to be patient. They can all get f**ked. I've invested my emotional state in this rabble and we need answers. Like I said in an earlier post we need an explanation. We have been bashed in both grades to zero.

What the f**k have the coaching staff been doing? Where the f**k are the player's heads at? We need answers and it starts with the coach and then his underperforming squad.

It wasnt good ... i bypassed the wrist slitting and just stabbed myself in the brain ... why prolong the bleeding out?

It's more dramatic to bleed out.

Judging from the carry on here drama is a very important consideration

Yes we have played shit!! But did the game in 30 degree heat last week take more out of us then expected?

We are the only side that has played both Sunday afo games in very hot conditions!!

I think this is a grabbing at straws excuse. We were gone after 10 minutes.

Mate we were gone after the whistle.

They didn’t turn up at all IMO, never got off the bus. And that’s what pisses me off the most. Most of the tries were soft as a Timmy Mannah hit up.

We were outplayed with passion today.
I'm not particularly worried at this stage of the season.
It was only two weeks ago that the biggest supporters of this club, who were talking us up, yet today, they are putting complete shit on us.
Round 2 guys.
CHILL!!!!!


We were totally outplayed by a team that aren’t even considered a threat for the premiership. Alarm bells are well and truely ringing. Gus blew up Griffith or whatever his name is for losing a preseason game. Obviously the spray didn’t hurt anyone going by the results. BA has got the team he wanted, there shouldn’t be any excuses.
