Wake up call yet again.............we need to set the standard and stop dropping or raising our standards depending on who we play. Panthers and Storm play the same standard each we, you need to step up to beat them. We seem to want to do the bare minimum. To be fair, we are decimated at the moment but premiership teams rise to the occasion.

He is a fool cause Rein had to come on after 30 mins and off at 50-55 mins. You close with your best. Absolute peanut coaching. We closed with no Marata,Mahoney or RCG.
RCG was cooked because we had no other front row on the bench. BA is an actual genius, he keeps surviving purely because the rest of the comp is too shit to knock us out of the top four.

We can defend like absolute champions against a team like Melbourne, in Melbourne, yet defend like peanuts against the last placed team in front of 28000 of our own fans.
That loss is just inexcusable and the better teams in the comp wouldn't allow that to happen against such a shite team as the Tigers. Ever.

RCG had to be taken off earlier and back on for a 2nd stint. He burnt him out.

I knew Moses was going to miss both cause once the heats on he goes missing. It makes me wonder if going forward we move more towards D.Brown as our main guy and let Moses go get his 1.1 mill eslewhere. Great player when no heat. But once its pressure on he just isn't clutch.
Reed was getting in the road in the second half.
Moses was great in the first half and has been the form half in the comp. When we get beat it is always going to be due to the other team keeping Moses quiet (or our game plan failing to get him into the game).

It remains a club without a winning, tough culture. I just knew this was a game we would struggle with. Reminds me of a lot of the so-called milestone games in recent years that are billed as such - Mannah’s 200th in 2017 (smashed by a very mediocre Newcastle), the home game after Denis Anderson’s passing (beaten against Penrith), and this shit show for our 75th anniversary against the worst team in the comp.

This really shows how far away from being a proper premiership threat we are, but if nothing else, props to the retention committee for not giving Kaufusi a second look, the guy is an absolute liability who lacks either the workrate or the skills to be anything more than a bench prop.
I thought they did timmy proud in his milestone game losing to a wooden spoon side.

He should be thankful he got to 200 games.

He had no one on the bench to replace him, we are f**ked if we lose either RCG or Paulo for an extended period of time.

Also the rest of you f**ks should just ignore Pou, you know he is never going to let an argument go without getting his last dumb shit words in. I don't even know why you continue to bother reply to the f**kwit.
