Round 25 vs Bunnies (Goodbye Corey)

I’ve heard Norman loves to take the ( c )

What exactly does that mean?

Definitely no excuses for Hook in 2022. Absolute minimum is top

Ok, I truely hope I’m wrong about him but only time will tell.

I get the frustration, I really do but you cannot pump him all the time. This year was going decent then it fell apart and we all know why. At the end of the day he’s working his way through the roster, removing the dead wood and shit attitude, and bringing in some decent recruits for next year. Hopefully a few more signings will land, plus some very bright juniors and things will start to take shape moving forward

Okay, so it means you’re still a dipshit.

Muzby where you bean I thought you had slipped out the side door as well. Last game then we can exit left or right up to you and back in 22.

Wot?

Counter argument is Corey is just following coach's orders. Low risk footy. He was never that style of player.

Dufty doesn't agree with Mr Hook either.
Oh, and nor do I. We're boring. We're coached that way.

Bigger problems than C. Norman.

Please enlighten us with your thoughts as to what you believe the issues are

Our pack is the least skilled pack in the competition. It's also the slowest and one of the softest. No second phase. No real anything.

Any half ever would struggle.

Not arguing about the pack, definite issues there with lack of mongrel and ball skills. That I agree with. Hopefully Su’a, Molo and Burgess is a step in the right direction. Norman is just flat out ordinary, absolute trash for his $$$

Are the coaches instructions to Corey to jog not run? Does he instruct Corey to arm grab in defence and not put his body on the line?

Hook seems very risk adverse. Maybe Norman's shuffling is a result of having any instinct coached out of him.

Well you can't blame Hook for that as he's only been there this season & Corey has always played this way since signing with us.

I’m sure most of us have our reservations about Hook at this stage but you can’t pin Corey Normans piss poor form on Hook.
Ben Hunt for example was outstanding this season at times.

Time that you may have not given him so far , going by your threads. I think most of us have a pass mark of top 8 minimum next season. If he cant get us on a big upcurve by mid season next year most of us would gladly see the back of him as a experiment that failed. Again like the previous staff all three coaches & Haran should be under the pump.

Back to the game . The boys should put everything behind them and go out and give their all in this their final match of the season , they owe us that much at least - and themselves .

Show some true spirit and really get stuck into the South Sydney side , if they are able to do that then they will have a chance of going out on a winning note for 2021 .

It would certainly give us something to look forward to next year - Dragons by 12

Career best form if you take out injuries. Same with Ravalawa.

Rava still has an error or two in him, but I just loved those two monster tackles he made against the Cows. The poor Cowboy's players wondered where the Mack truck had come from!

 

[denis preston]

The club wouldn't be game to send him off, would they ? He is lucky he is not at Jubilee or Win or it could have been very embarrassing with boos reining out all over the ground ! Hook surely hasn't read the room on this bloke.
