Most if not all of this might and probably is true but whats Maloney's excuse? What an awful buy hes been
We will have to agree to disagree. We would have lost a lot more games without him. There is a reason he has been in SOO 5 times out of 6 games since he played for the Panthers. Plenty of better judges than me rate him. Cleary on the other hand, has shown in every arena, finals, SOO he just isn't good enough in that position. He might be a great hooker.

Bring back Matty, make him captain coach. Only person in a decade and a half who made our attack look premiership worthy, and watchable.

Nathan Cleary is just not a halfback. That game was made for him. Dominant field position and possession and he couldn't find a hole in a swiss cheese factory. What a terrible, awful game he had. He couldn't find a gap if it was lit with lasers and had a neon arrow sign six feet high, pointing at the spot.

Just dreadful, I have seen enough of this type of display now to know that we are going nowhere with him as halfback. Maloney might make mistakes but he does so trying to make things happen. Cleary just shovelled the ball out the back, repeatedly. Brandy must be crying into his beer to think that this bloke has the same number 7 on his back that he wore with distinction.

We dominated in every stat except where it matters, on the scoreboard. Yes, even in effective tackle percentage. Dave's mate showed exactly why he the lowest winning percentage of any coach over 300 games. He cannot coach attack to save himself. What was Wayde Egan doing? Does he still have that scrotum problem that stops him opening his legs and running? Who is coaching him to do that? FFS run you muppet!!

I once had root canal on a molar and it it was so painful I thought I would rather they just tore the thing out. I was thinking something similar with this game except this time it was my eyeballs that were in pain. How bad are we to watch?

Yep Cleary just hasn’t kicked on unfortunately and we’re going to pay the price for it for the next few years, was a massive gamble giving him so much money early on and it’s backfired big time by the looks of things. I still think there’s a halfback in there somewhere but I’m probably just an idiot for thinking that. He has to many performances where he can’t even perform basic halfback skills consistently, the fact he’s played origin is truly mind blowing.

You insult Egan yet Kenny played double his minutes with 8 metres gained. Like I said people here don't actually understand football. When both your hookers don't run it's the coaching.

Not that great. I haven't seen him play with such passion, well, ever.
Then you've never seen him play. Ffs. That's how he always played.

Look at most of his negative moments and it was quiet often being too passionate. That was exactly what he did for us and NZ last year.

The only time he didn't was in his final game for us and if you're honest you forgive him for that one. Brain the size of a pea but ALWAYS ripped in

I've seen him play. He ran with twice as much venom tonight as he did for us, even last year.

Our biggest issue is the coaching. Tackles inside 20 tonight was 47-16. One player alone can't fix it
