Just what in the hell goes on at training ? ? ? What do these jerks do ? Surely they look at the errors and their shortcomings of the previous match and the coach says ‘ well this needs to be done and that to ensure there is no repeat of the same problems in our next match “ ?

The thing that truly annoys the shat out of me is that they are not kids , they have been playing the game for years yet their performances are those of complete novices .

It has reached the point where their efforts have become embarrassing to watch , one is no longer waiting for the great Dragon machine to ‘ click ‘ into gear like some finely tuned engine , it is now a case of biting our fingernails in anticipation of just when the next error will be made culminating into a total rout .

Shameful display of the players inadequacies and lack of teamwork .

If you want a laugh watch the presser.
Hook said they sourhs a good side as are we 😆.
We were better than last week.
f**k der.
He said we are a good side down on confidence.
What team are you coaching or watching it ain't the dragons😄.
When we play a full 80 min we will get 3 4 or 5 wins😄
When is the last time we played a full 80
Min.
Not for years..
We are capabl😄e of bt anyone.😄
When we learn we will get what we deserve😄..
We lost 4 in a row.
Some teams will do that at the end of the year
.Yes us.
We will get it right .
When we do it will be enjoyable.😄.
When we learn not how to bt ourselves we'd be hard to bt.😄
All his words.
What better way for Sloan to.learn than against the big boys, he was picked in the first two rounds.
Sorry HOOK.IS A JOKE REPEATED THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER.
HE IS DELUSIONAL.

Just watched the presser. Don’t think you’ll any changes next wek except the inclusion of Moose. But gee whiz, I don’t know what game he was watching but he showed no sign of panic or disappointment.
Same as all of his press conferences, gives nothing away. But he did seem to suggest that Bird is staying at 6.

A lot of disappointments tonight, but far out, De Belin is looking really, really off the pace. Still tackles hard but looks gassed the whole time he’s on.

It doesn't matter who you select where cos they will still be under the dubious guidance of a coach of such abject intransigence and stupidity.

I don't expect us to win or contest a GF every year - or even make the eight every year - but I think I have a right to expect a certain standard of performance and to go into games thinking that we are a chance of winning, not just be an aimless rabble, filling in time between the first whistle and the last. Part of me wonders whether you can keep blaming the coaches - maybe we have just recruited the wrong players. Either way we are a clusterf*ck and it's not going to get better overnight.

Nah, sorry - Griffin's position is untenable. He is the architect of this $hitshow of inexplicable selections, Under 8's-level game management and misguided loyalty to old nags. Everyone can see that McCullough is off the pace of the game, but no attempt was made to recruit a more effective dummy half. He tells us that Amone and Sloane are the future, but the future lasted three weeks before Sloane gets binned for one bad performance whereas week after week of dumb $hite is tolerated from B Hunt, Sims, Lomax, Lawrie, Kerr, Mbye etc. It's a farce. The highlight of the season so far is not getting flogged by Penriff...
Gentlemen, let our battle cry be "Hook the Hook!"
Spot on. A journo with a bit of a backbone should be asking hook in the presser if Hunt and plenty of others out there tonight get dropped for their poor performances, like he did with Sloan and Amone.

Probably because he's doing all of the scrambling defence McCullough's not doing.

JDB's pretty much defending as a 13 and a 9...

Matt Feagai is the only guy who can hold his head up after that performance.
If Griffin had any personal integrity and professional pride he would resign. If the board had any respect for the club, they would tear up his contract and let the ballkids coach. Could they do any worse?
I think you can add Su’a and Molo. They were both strong and have been every week
