Round 9 v Tigers

[Vicpanther]

Give the optimism a rest Vic. Shit coach, shit team playing shit.

Tigers are resting up aiming for 50.

Dave can f**k off and take his mate with him to work the Abcoe counters.

Nah ill always be optimistic. I have dealt with this for over 30 years got to have some hope lol

 

[lsta5838]

Baffling. Why do we always seem to be a player or 2 short in defensive line?? Reset after halftime. Put body into tackle, dominate the tackle, and get square at marker. Was in 2000 or so when we came from 23 down or so to beat tigers?

 

[Flashstep]

We’re abysmal but the refs don’t ever give us a fair go, Cleary should have sprayed them weeks ago but he’s probably still tired.

You should try for over 50 years! I’m always optimistic but sometimes I just wonder why?

Good luck to you with that.

Unfortunately, there really is no cause for optimism based on what we've seen this year.

That was hard to watch, don’t even know where to start with the problems that we have. I knew I should have jumped on us to win the spoon at $15 last week, safe to say that will drop considerably after this game.

We can't win a chook raffle, let alone a spoon.

FMD when Penrith do that, hand on the ball, it's a penalty every time. Bigger issues but damn we have nothing going our way.

Exactly.

Refs hate us and seem hesitant to help us and happy to put the boot in. We have a million issues and refs arent the reason for that.

But we got penalised for a crusher where there was none. Tigers score off it (our gutless defence was ahuge part of it. But without that penalty our gutless defence shouldn't have mattered)

We got penalised for a 1 on 1 strip... why can they get it right 100% of the time on in field of play or in goal. Yet get those calls wrong?

Again Ivan and this shitty side he picked are the bigger issue. As is Ivan not recognising after the fact that he cant hide a shit player by swapping sides of the field. Hook him. Luai might not be better. But I guarantee he can't be worse.

Playing with 12 would be an improvement he gives the illusion of a defender in the line. Making guys around him confused.

Goulds signings 2019

MWZ
Tim Grant
Fiimoano
Sele
Winterstein
Why is Mansour still in the team?
No fullback
No frontrowers
No hooker......but Cleary plays 2 every week.
Lack of pace in the back.

 

[mxlegend99]

Phil Gould, Brian Fletcher and the current board have plenty to answer too.

Gould has nothing to answer. He was pushed out.

He f**ked our roster. But he also had Wayne Bennett onboard to coach us. He can happily watch the board destroy what he built.

Most of those went ok last year - under another coach. Players don't respect him.

Not for the first time.

Players don't respect him.

They didn't respect the coach last year either, but at least they were fit.

Those are all we could sign, we gave big deals to RCG, Cleary, Maloney & Tamou.

 

[Abacus]

Can we please not have a thread dominated by ref complaints when the team has shown nothing to warrant being treated like a footy team?

 

[JACS]

To think we were that bad in the first half and our coach is in the sheds with hand in pockets not blowing up or anything. The opposition coach while leading by 22 is blowing up at his team. This guy has no heart or brain and should go selling cheesecakes with his mate

 

[mxlegend99]

Deadset. Mansour is the worst finishing winger in the comp. Slow as f**k and braindead.

 

[mxlegend99]

Alex Twal just dives on 2 of his teammates in a completed tackle. No penalty.
Maloney is in half a second after 1 guy has a guy almost on ground. That's a flop.

 

[TheFrog]

Grant stopped. McQueen miked that. These refs.

Needed support on the inside.

 

[Vicpanther]

Yeah I definitely know that feeling. But alas I can't see myself supporting anyone else.

 

[mxlegend99]

When is Luai going on? Hook Fuimaono and put someone who can run and tackle on.

We need points ffs. We cant ein. But we can sslvage f/a that may help in the spoon battle
