lewis is in a team that is just ahead of us on the table.If you think jennings is worth 800k a season you need to put the drugs away.The fringe first graders are fill ins untill the cap is sorted out plain and simple

Please lewis,gordon and jenko won most of the games you won in recent years for you, they are your match winners, and no matter how much you trade say they are not you know deep down its true.

Losing all 3 of your rep players in 1 off season is just crazy no matter how much cap pressure you have you don't let your 3 best players leave at once, that just leaves you with nsw cup players and a couple or stock standard nrl players you picked up like whare,brown,manu etc none of those are lewis,jennings or gordon are they?

Then you got your board so excited about Soward who they claim is a marquee signing??

I would take any of those 3 over soward any day.

:lol::lol:

Gordon played 9 games in 2 years. We offered him $380k more then enough not much more we could do.

As for Jennings we got Soward and Taylor for his money.

Lewis will be injured before mid year as always

As for Soward he has won more finals games then all of them combined as a half is more valuable

I will give you a scoop.

You let go of all 3 of your rep stars in one off season and replaced them with fringe first grades and no names and you expect to be competitive v the roosters then went out and bough rep player one of was yours?

There is a scoop for you.

Are you geniused? Do you honestly think none of us are capable of working out our squad is weak this year? Which one of us do you think is really Gus? Like any of us can do anything about our situation anyway. Most of us are satisfied with how we performed yesterday, the scoreline blew out a bit, but we weren't as bad as the scoreboard suggests.

When Teams are on the attack players throw a near perfect just in front of their centres to attack the line at speed. When we do it it seems slow motion, the ball goes to high or behind the player so he has to stop, get the ball and run. By the time this happens other teams defence takes their place. Needs to be addressed and its not walsh at falut all the time.

in many ways it is.He rarely runs the ball meaning the defence can set wide and cover the runners .If its slow out of dummy half and the halfs the rest of the back line will always struggle

How is it not Walsh's fault when he's throwing these terrible passes more often than not.

That aside we get quick play the balls we get good ball to the backs. We need that in the new year for the new halves to work like they should

Its not always his fault because other players do the same. It was the 1st game I saw Segeyaro have a shocker.
I was expecting it to be honest. Poor bloke is in mourning for his mate who died. Dealing with a death is draining and he looked flat and his mind wasn't on the job. Not his fault, he is only human.

So Humble & Kingston always throw great passes? I haven't seen Brown get a normal pass from Humble. Same from Kingston.

P!ss Walsh off now. Bring in Williams & work on getting him decent passes & quicker play the balls. To work from.

I have no issue with his shocker.

Look at the forwards stats from Monday compared to this week. As a team our attack was poor across the board. We seem to do that more then we should

You won't hear me defending either of those 2 players. Humble is comfortably the worst half (and possibly player) getting a regular run in any team atm and Kingston being made captain over Grant (making him more difficult to drop) was a move I always felt was a mistake. Changes nothing about Walsh's average service.

Grant has stepped it up a bit in the last few weeks. His Parra game was awesome, and he was solid last week too. It looks like he may miss out on Origin, so hopefully that motivates him to keep improving.

Nope doesn't make him any better. Though we don't fix these problems no half can save us. I have concerns over our coaching. We more often then not are 'flat' We rarely have more then 2 forwards hit the 100m mark.

We get go forward we look good. It's part of the issue I have with the coach we just don't turn up enough.
