Yes, it is great to get the 2 points

BUT

The physicality just wasn't there from the outset today. We just wanted the game to be over once we got in front. We just wanted to run through the motions and hope the 2 points came our way. However, the Tigpies weren't going away. We should've been much more desperate than we were.

We stopped moving up in defence very early. This may have had a lot to do with the possession against us, but our defence was way off early in the match. It was attrocious at times.

For mine, the attitude isn't there, the drive isn't there, the will isn't there. It hasn't been there sufficiently all year. I think it as plain as day.

Hopefully we get more out of that performance than if we'd put a big score on them, but I doubt. I think we're in real trouble. We've seriously lost our way. Every other team in the NRL puts a big big score on us today.

Well a win is a win, but that was a very poor hit out all things considered.

Junior's back next week, but we need more than that to get this side firing for an 80min performance against a team actually contending for something in 2023... how will we go against the Bulldogs next weekend....?

Paulo back next week.

Full strength basically at home.

Just needed the 2 points and get out of dodge and some confidence.

Tigers had a crack and barely gave us any ball in the 2nd half.
