Round 18 v Roosters

[carltonsouth79]

We need to let Hunt go, I know there probably no other 7 around at the moment but he's actually hurting the side now. We aren't even get that 1 off flukey try out of Hunt these days. Lack of direction when we had all that ball down their end and we were just going side to side offering nothing.

He is so disappointing. Tactical kicking is terrible, no short kicks, no runs. Flanno not the answer at 6 for me. Anasta, whom I dont rate, noted that Stevie Wonder could do better in the halves than our two….spot on

As i said before make Cook capt when he gets here, leave Hunt to his game, thats a start

 

[TruSaint]

Warren Smith needs to change his diaper.

 

[JubileeJeffro]

The Fox commentators really piss me off. If they could just shut the f**k up for one second, and actually comment on the game that would be great.

It’s a roosters wankfest.. boring to listen to

our 5th tackle kicks are predictable and ordinary
how about a chip over the top for Sloan BH ?? Just for bit of variety and surprise factor ????

I hope Flanno is just saying he delaying resigning until after Origin cause he gonna tell him we don't need him at 7.

Jason Liddle, just keeping it simple, what a great try just before the break. We let in 2 very soft tries which is likely going to hurt us in the end, our halves are struggling and Sloan needs to practice backing up every play. If the halves pick up we can keep this close, come on Hunt, this is why you're paid the big bucks.

Oh and Couchman is looking the goods, we have a JDB successor.

We always suffer from his inability to build pressure and force the dropout

 

[Phantom V]

We need to use Sloan more effectively in attack. He’s fast enough to create some real problems for the Rorters but we’re just not using him in the right way

 

[JubileeJeffro]

Couchman has been good, think his brother needs a chance at this level also.

 

[Saints Forever]

Can we simply accept that the Roosters have a much better side

Raw effort will only take you so far

Hunt to 9 to give Lidds a break
SLOAN to 7 worth a shot

The ultimate frustration is the coach, no matter who he is, doesn't agree with you.

I backed Hunt for so long but he doesn't deliver on his price tag, and we just need to go in a new fresh direction. The coach seems to plan around him however and it is really hurting us and will continue to do so. Let's remember that this time last year Walker was in reserves for the chooks to incentivise him and do what was right by the other players putting their hand up. Look at him put Hunt to shame for the second time in a year right here.

 

[Dragonsdiehard]

We are a better side than we were in April but they still have our number (and in spades).
Plus, It's a bit of sad state of affairs when.....
Roosters make interchanges and bring on monsters like Leniu. Meanwhile, we interchange with Lawrie and Couchman....just saying.
Coach Flanno is going to need a rip-snorting half-time fire up speech to get us off the canvas in this one I reckon.

 

[carltonsouth79]

Time for a second half revival

 

[Saints Forever]

Roosters seem faster all over the park

more cohesive

let’s hope we play like we did in the second half last week

Their squad depth is absurd.. Spencer Leniu starts at every other team in the comp bar the panthers

 

[DeathBlooms]

Time for a second half revival

Need some divine intevention.

 

[carltonsouth79]

Just speed and clinical skills

 

[DeathBlooms]

They making metres so easy.
