Geee we missed Penisni tonight...

Kidding we miss Smith and his line speed...

hes a terror in kick pressure

 

[Wally21]

It didn’t help, mate. That sort of scoreline against a very ordinary side doesn’t happen without a fullback who’s all at sea in defence.

Yep. Getting destroyed in the middle is definitely Iongi’s fault. I’m waiting with bated breath for your next pearl of wisdom

 

[senior]

hopefully simonsson is back after the bye

Russell is being exposed badly, Addo-carr isn't helping his cause to be fair

 

[Chipmunk]

I’d be signing Mahoney. And I’d get him by Monday.

Signing anyone by Monday is only the difference between likely running 12th and not running 15th.

Is it really worthwhile bothering?

hard for the edges when the middle is getting rolled

 

[MarkInTheStands]

No roasting needed just tell Joey he is riding the pine for the rest of the game and move Walker to 9

next week move Joey to St Mary’s or whoever the f**k will take him

 

[DaveMc]

How come when you have criticism it's only towards iongi?

Sorry, for the sake of clarity on my part, it’s been a dreadful performance across the board. But Iongi is well and truly part of that.

People don’t seem to realise the part that the fullback plays in organising the defensive line. That is far and away the most important thing Gutherson did for us for years. The lack of his leadership is being shown tonight. How is that a controversial statement?

depends who

The first part of your sentence it actually true too.
Penisini would have taken better care of that right edge than Samrani has.

 

[Grigor]

This had to be the game when we had no alcohol in the house , munching a few Valium to get me through this shit

It is because reserve graders can't perform in 1st grade on a weekly basis

 

[Cumberland Eel]

Well a lot of merkins eyes getting f**ked in this thread lol

 

[the phantom menace]

Putrid performance that half.

Hope Ryles rips it up these cowards. Senior players and leaders need to lead - looking at you Junior, Dylan, Lomax, Williams, even Lussick.

All I can hope for from is an improved showing in the second half, playing like they should have to start with. And the key measure is defence, letting in 5 first half tries is not acceptable and need to be corrected.

 

[DaveMc]

Samrani is never going to be a first grader. It’s no surprise that Saints have attacked that edge with success from the get go.

Yes true, I was kinda missing will in defence.

Samrani is still a work in progress.

 

[Chipmunk]

Too many reserve graders. I can’t believe we have extended Kelma, Kautoga and Hopgood. They are AIDS.

In fairness to Kautoga, he's likely on the rookie contract amount.

 

[MarkInTheStands]

Maybe offer Joey to the Tigers once they show Da Silva the door

 

[the phantom menace]

Yep, that would be ideal.
