Round 1 v Sharks

[carltonsouth79]

If this is a try then it’s good night boys and girls

 

[VodkaSaint]

how embarrassing , sharon woods scores against us again

 

[carltonsouth79]

I don’t care what anyone says we can’t afford to have Dufty at FB..

It is a conundrum. So much speed but high ball a real weakness.

 

[R&WTILLIDIE]

If Corey Norman was playing....game would’ve been closer...



hahaha....sorry couldn’t help myself

 

[VodkaSaint]

I don’t care what anyone says we can’t afford to have Dufty at FB..one great thing six nightmare mistakes

or Duffy and Norman , fair dinkum , Hunt is just Bad luck to any team

 

[thebigredv]

Dufty with his usual rocks and diamonds routine... McGregor had every right to have him in and out of the team. Needs to lose the ego.

I'm far from happy tonight but I do see something in this team that hasn't been there the last few years.

Another pretty sad night for this club despite a better effort for longer.

4 or 5 horrible mistakes at the back have cost us a win.

 

[Forbes Creek Dragons]

That isn't earning a contract extension.

 

[jeffdragon]

First two our errors Dufty knocks on two players going for the ball.
It only happens at the REDV

Nearly time for the Benny Hill music....

I’d back Ramsay to do better work w the highball he can attack as well..

 

[Heavy D]

Can't say i recall a try being awarded then taken back , ever in my lifetime . The better team lost. #rigged

 

[carltonsouth79]

I agree, was excited to see him have a go there when Duffy went off

 

[SAP58]

The Kerr experiment hasn’t worked !

 

[carltonsouth79]

The better team lost. #rigged

As much as I’m a Saints man I can’t see that. Gummies handled the conditions better than us, showed more guile and also had a lot of bloody luck...grrrrr.

 

[Unsainty79]

Scoreline was a fair reflection of the game. You cannot make that many errors and expect any different. Regardless of the bunker decision, we deserved to lose.

I can’t see us beating any team. I think it’d be easier to swallow if it were the young kids getting beat, similar to how the Knights were in 2016.

The no dummy half incident is cannot describe the team any better lol.

 

[pinball_collector]

think on the bright side, the ladder has us 9th.

the highest we will be in 2021

 

[Forbes Creek Dragons]

I’d back Ramsay to do better work w the highball he can attack as well..

If Ramsey wasn't injured I'm sure he would be half a chance next week.

Reschs at the Royal Hotel.
Gates opening soon.
Saints v Newtown reserve grade on at 3:45.
Does it get any better?

I feel like things got worse from this point onwards..

 

[Gareth67]

With all respect to Duffy the man is undoubtedly a great attacking weapon , but alas the man’s defense is what truly matters . No team can afford to have a player whom simply cannot catch the pill in the fullback role - the last line of defense .

Too many errors on his part has gifted the opposition points , I would be giving him another opportunity in that position , but should he not stack up then have him on the bench and replace him with Ramsey .

The season only just beginning so now is the time for changes to occur before all is lost .

 

[mickeylane]

That was disappointing - got drenched and more importantly watched a team have a good go but way too many mistakes to win an NRL game.

Good news:
Vaughan
Lawrie
Hunt (put a big effort in )

Bad News:
No Back Row whatsoever
Simms
Kerr
Fuimaono all not up to scratch

Further Bad News;
No options to cover them.
plus Clune is just a passenger
