Thoughts on the ground mate.

OMG, this convo started from 111's Dad saying "throw a kid in", then you sledged with " development club" now because the kids haven't played much NRL we're still garbage.

If only we could get some kids from Ball or Flegg who have already played 50 NRL games FFS !

Hug hug huggity hug!! This started when we called ourselves a development club and we couldn’t develop a turd from a well fed dogs arse. I mean a 3 year deal for Simonsplod?? 2 year deal for Ogden?? 2 years for Mummamoasia??? GTFO!!

 

[hineyrulz]

I think he has the Ian Baker-Finch yips.

Or maybe he’s just crap and should have never been given a top 30 spot??

#rhinos4lyf!!!

FFS I can't compete with your super human negative energy after a loss. I give up.

Well don’t reply to me you self absorbed twat. You reply to me and then sook when someone engages with a different point of view.

Well another f**ken shit week with a shit Thursday night likely into a shit Friday at work and a shit weekend. Go f**k yourself Parra. Go f**k yourself NRL.

Thankfully no more Thursday nights until our last game in Penrith.

Am over it 4 Thursdays in 5 weeks to start the year has been rough.

Now we get to wait almost 2 bloody weeks to our next game. Easter Monday one extreme to the other.

No mate, it's not that at all. You're entitled to your opinions and most of them are actually right.

Don't be such a downer. It's just a game of footy. I bought myself a hot cross bun and am going to gobble it down soon.
And I just hope no ashol interrupts me while I am doing so.

Should have opted for that long ribbed rainbow lollipop….

Waqa used to NEVER pass the ball to his wing ... now all he does is shovel it on .... he has lost the plot

Yeah dindt understand that.

Its like someone said to him , make use of your winger so he just started shuffling to it. Not even a draw and pass.

And when he had to step back inside, he just passed it to sivo who had no where to go

He has no football IQ what so ever.

 

[the phantom menace]

It's like he lost all his footballing confidence after being shown up as a winger who couldn't catch a high ball in that game late last year...

We really miss Opacic in that spot.

Hes been crap besides that 1 game against chrichton which from memory was only 5 to 10mins of brilliance

 

[TheCrowe]

f**ken picked this in one already. Absolute shit show of a morning. If you don’t hear from me next week, deadset it’s because I’ve been killed by a falling satellite.
Don’t know whether to take up more drinking, MMA or self-flagellation. Maybe all three at the same time.

MMA will be the most beneficial.

2 wooden spoons Brad

It’s an irrelevant statistic. When you have a shit season you have no control over how many other teams have shit seasons. Robinson only won six games in 2016 as well. It’s meaningless.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I think they just looked a class above us. It's also scary to think of what talent they had out.

They are a very wealthy club. They don’t need as much luck on the day as we do.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Murchie had a few clubs interested. I doubt he isnon less then 200-240k.

Murchie has barely missed a tackle this year, and is one of our best workers off the ball.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

The thing I will say about murchie is he is an edge backrower not a middle.

BA playing him in the middle doesn't suit his game.

If you think Murchie goes better running at halfbacks you should see when Junior Paulo does it!

 

[Poupou Escobar]

That explains quite a deal, I wonder what the person was on that decided that replacing Mahoney with a decrepit old merkin like Baldson was a good idea.

Would’ve been the same merkin that knew we had a salary cap, and prioritising merkins means you need to replace some lower priority retentions with cheaper options. Our middle defence was shit with Mahoney as well.
