Have you ever played the game? Do you understand what these players go through to even get on the field each week? You guys sit behind a keyboard and criticise blokes with 10000 x the ability of yourselves.

The players aren't being paid to play against us, they're paid to play against the Brisbane Broncos this week. The reality is our roster isn't as good as theirs by a very wide margin. The result of that is on TV right now for everyone to see. It's good that they're trying hard. Makes the pill a bit easier to swallow.

Hodko has been shit for us so far. I didn't expect him to help much, but he's barely above Tyrone Roberts levels at the moment. Mullen hasn't been much help, either. Didn't expect our halves to be a key issue for us this year, but our halves have been diabolical tonight and not much better in any other match.

Would like to see Lamb get a crack at some point.

Lamb isn't a first grader mate

Can't fault his d, hits like a truck. He smashed Parker.

I'd be more excited if he broke the line once in a while.

He doesn't turn 20 til June. Give him time, you've got to admit his improvement is obvious. Last year he looked lost, this year he's laying out forwards and bending the line. The next 10 years aren't written for him yet.

I was saying lets see how we go without him, terrible as expected. He carries us every week

It's quite clear the club needs to go in a different direction now and the coach knows it.

Please, you question those who question the bloke that 'carries' us each week. We're wooden spooners and are bottom of the ladder this season. He aint carrying shiiite, just contributing to it.

Sione will be all time. He's a freak

He played about half a dozen games last year and from memory we won the first 4. Do the maths

We were soooooo bad in the first half, Hodko has been our worst IMO, aweful last tackle options and basically going missing when we need him to step up.

Oh, okay, if that's the new criteria, then shut down the forum now.

So you've never offered an opinion on food, politics, sport, music or the weather. Because unless you are a chef, politician, professional sportsman, musician or meteorologist, then you are a hypocrite of the first order.

I would love to see the boys actually hit and stick in a tackle as well, we either:

A) drop off and the player runs another 10m

B) limply hang off the Broncs player and he makes an offload

C) hold on up top and let the guy use his leg drive to go another 10m

D) all of the above

Which NRL club did Turton play for and how many NRL games has he to his name?
