Kirisome Auva'a & Josh Hoffman can not defend for shit and are way to slow...

If French is back next week & Gutho is out long term fullback keep Will Smith at fullback till Gutho is back put French on the winf and when Hayne back put him next to French..

Those other 2 nuffies will go well at Wenty...

So more to the point guys.. Based on our current cattle. How would YOU get us out of this? I don't any other way other than bunkering down and working hard.
Basically yeah. The cattle are actually pretty good stock, just they are roaming around like they’ve attacked the farmer’s hemp stock and don’t seem inclined to do what they are paid to do. And now they are getting their ass handed to them on and off the field and they’re completely shitting themselves. The issues are too numerous to say “I’d sign this player or I’d sack this coach”.

I don’t think we necessarily overachieved last year but I think a lot of the players aren’t used to putting in long term without the motivation that they had in 2016 and then last year following that crap year. We probably only had 3 players with something else to play for being Moses, Norman and Brown with origin potential. And all 3 look like that’s been their sole focus/distraction and are swimming in quicksand especially when everyone else looks like they are on a completely different page.

You're right, we need to improve our performances, like we did early last year when you thought our forwards were too small.
Ffs Pou, that was LAST YEAR! We won the comp in 1986. Yoo-hoo but who cares? And haven't won anything else except wooden spoons since. Bet you celebrated us winning something in those years. Time to pull your head out of your 2017 arse and get up to date. So far we are shit and most of that is on the forwards, too small, too one dimensional and too poor and BA over-rated them except for a few here, me, Ram and Hindy plus a few others. BA assembled this team so now has to accept responsibility for their performance or lack thereof.

No one is listening to your dribble.

I think when your being paid big money to perform and your not performing and your team is currently winless during the first month of the season anyone with half a brain would be doing all they can to turn things around.
The bottom line is if your drinking alcohol you can’t perform/recover as well as if your not drinking and we need these players in peak health.
Do you think Cameron smith and Billy slater get on the piss if Melbourne were going poorly? How do you think Craig Bellamy would react to that?
These are professional athletes and when your winless at the start of the season I think avoiding alcohol and doing what you can to turn this around is a no brainer.

Just my opinion

How do you know it’s just the forwards underperforming?

^^^

They went to The Rocks for a few beers.

Slothfield says

"The next morning (Tuesday) they had an email from a patron of the hotel saying they behaved poorly, were obnoxious, they swore.

FFS is that it ?

Hadley mentioned it. Said club responded with yes we know, what an over reaction.
Thanks

Unfortunately you can say that about our whole team so far this year. New blood can't hurt then.
You genuinely think our performances couldn’t be any worse? Apart from the Manly game we have scored eight tries and conceded nine in the other three games.
