The reaction in this thread to this loss are just plain moronic , but I expect it from some of you because you are just plain clueless.

Look at the stats. No team wins when the opposition has 47 tackles in the oppositon 20 compared to 5

We lost this game with our mistakes.

Fix up the mistakes AND with fair officiating, we would have better than 50/50 chance of beating the Bulldogs
Agreed, some of the sooking over this result is embarrassing. We were right in it at halftime. Atrocious handling killed us in the second half. The poor bench selection didn’t help.

We don’t have the cattle to compete with the top teams. Ryles inherited a basket case and will have to do the best with what he has.

There will be no marquee signings. There will be no success for a number of years. If that upsets you just stop investing so much time supporting this club.

So what was being done prior to that. If all that was done was rubber stamp things put before the R&R team, he was getting paid under false pretences and without any KPIs or job governance.

Needs to do better is a massive understatement.
I'm guessing the team and style the coach wanted was being done.

Two weeks in a row where we performed poorly in the second half. Just no go forward. The only positive I can see is that Ryles will know exactly what we are lacking. But can our R&R team actually land the right players?

I thought playing Papali today was a mistake given the make-up of the bench. I really don't think he is the answer as a dummy half.

Surely Hopgood and Penisini have to go to cup?

Fair call in regards to the future looking bleak for a while yet

Two morons killed our momentum not comments on a forum.

NRL must be scratching their heads how they allowed this monster game during Origin period. Feels like almost a 4th Origin. In such a Primetime spot too

i don't think a loss to the Titans will do us any harm in the long term, as it would better expose that there are still significant issues in the squad.

We're going to finish somewhere in the Bottom 6 anyway, does it really matter if that is 12th, 14th or 16th??
