Round 2 V Rabbitohs

Gee another come from behind win.
Sometimes I just wish we would take those early points. Souths were happy to give consecutive penalties inside their 20. A couple of 2 pointers from Cleary might make them be a little more law abiding in future.
Anyway ring on the Dogs next.

Yeah we probably should take the penalty goal more first up, may as well get on the board and play to our strengths in the short term.

Totally agree. Particularly when we get a penalty in front in the first 5 minutes of the game. It is always difficult to bust a relatively fresh opposition defensive line in those circumstances. I was baffled when we didn’t take the 2 on offer today.

LOL. Hey guys. Just a long time lurker here. never posted much if ever. Been reading for years.

Great win. The team showed they will hang in there for the full 80 this year. Will very rarely be blown off the park. They are an extremely fit team. Plenty of positives beyond the "slow starts".

But seriously... You 10 people who sit there and talk negative @#$% amongst yourselves day in day out. Take a few steps back. Go read your negative sh#t back to yourselves. Take a few deep breaths. Go take your meds. Whatever is necessary.

How the hell do you expect randoms like me to participate in this "discussion" when you just sh#t on everything the club does and anything us so called fans say?

You've been proven wrong two weeks in a row this season. We are 2 from 2 and at the head of the competition table.

And still..... Griffin sucks.. Maloney sucks...<Insert name here> sucks...

Sigh.. I rest my case. I'm out.
Why dont you ask the team why they expect fans to be happy spotting opposition teams a 14 point headstart?

In 160 minutes of this season we have been shit for 80+ of them. Getting the wins is great. But we're making it 100 times harder thsn it should be

Interesting to hear Brandy say after the game the focus all pre-season has been "start fast".

Now I'm no footy coach but surely Hook's message as we run out for the the Dogs game next week is "just play like you're 14 down". Should fix up the slow starts quick enough.

Seriously though, if we don't start competing better in the 1st half, we won't be making the 8.

Watching Melbourne lose to Tigers I'm not worried about us.

The premiers got 18 penalties and only scored one try against the Tigers.

Attack was rough but it's only round two. It'll get better but for the time being I'll take being 2 from 2 thank you very much.

Much better teams than us haven't won both games. Very hard at the start of the year recent history has shown we struggle early in the year. I will take 2 from 2. You need ugly wins like these to have a good year.

All 3 grades win was great

They play NQ next week. After 3 rounds one of NQ/Storm will only have 1 win. So these wins are good
