No you don't. You just get off on playing the virtual signalling minority f**kwit. You are doing it again. Give it a rest FFS.
Seriously, one loss isn't worth kicking the dog over, any more than one win should have you booking World Club Challenge tickets. The Titans have played a few good games this year and that was one of them. They deserve credit for beating us by a goal. We'll be back.

Why? He’s the starting half at Gold Coast and possibly the best goal kicker in comp. Zero chance his next contract is anywhere near $300k
6 months ago he wasn't the starting halfback of an NRL team. In fact, Foran, Campbell and Brimson were the most likely 1,6 & 7 ( not in that order) during the off season but Holbrook made a decision late in the pre-season to put Boyd at 7. Until that point he was used as a backup 9 and on that sort of money I'd assume (I'll invoke Pou's non-essential need to provide a source here). None of his achievements this season were widely forecast. Yes his next contract will be a healthy one but I'd suggest if you approached a backup hooker as he was last November and said well give you 300, or maybe 350, he'd have jumped at that.

I reckon Alex Johnson could give Frank Burge's record 8 tries in a match a shake up against Dunster and that right edge in a fortnight.

Latrell is already pumping his chest out himself with excitement.
8 tries? He was a front rower too I think.

We won't make the 8. I respect your optimism, it's a good trait to have but we are cooked.

They flog us everytime we are a half decent side.

Imagine what they are going to do to us in 2 weeks on Indigenous round of all rounds with where we are at atm.

No, it just means that any given game is out of the coach's hands. No coach wins every game. They don't even win every game they're expected to win.

Our 4 from 10 record this year is far more relevant than the result of a single game. If we'd won today we'd be 5 from 10. It's hardly any different, so there's no point whinging about this one game.

Lol. Classic.

We miss 8th spot by 2 points, maybe we can appeal the NRL and say, "Come on Pete and Andy, it's only 2 points, there's hardly any difference ffs, can we still play finals?? Pleeeease????!!!!"

The point is if we miss the eight by two points it will be because of the 24 games we played, not this one.

I thought Hodgson's defence was a little better tonight.
27 tackles, 4 misses.

Sure it wasn't Rheed Mahoney level but Mahoney doesn't play for us anymore and like a girlfriend who dumps you, sometimes you just got to let them go and make good with what you got.

I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't make the eight, but it's far too soon to give up hope just to avoid having your feelings hurt.
My feelings aren't hurt. I'm just f**king angry. Especially our team selections and our lack of variety. I also am again starting to hate the coach and I despise Hodgson more than COVID lockdowns.
