I reckon they choose to read the Don Rogers army and their fluff brigade.

Pretty tough time right now with some unique circumstances......horrendous injury toll, ASADA pending....., coach suspended, no sponsors (thanks ASADA).... Is it time to give some youngens a go or would it be throwing them to the wolves......I don't know the answer but I do know that to be strong you need support

I don't know how to keep my spirits up at the moment. Its like the players are resigned to sumpin. Now i'm pretty certain its not relocation or that we are going to go broke. Our future in the medium term onward is very sound. So wahts happening right now that has the place so fuggin glum? The fabric is tearing apart. Newm, CB4?

Newcastle were always going to win this game. Any other result, in the current circumstances, would be unthinkable to the NRL. In saying that, it appeared to me that our team played without skill and without pride. Some players seem to be only going through the motions, or playing for their pension cheque.
And are they really coached? It certainly does not appear that way. It also appears that players are not even acquainted with other team members. I'm becoming more and more of the opinion that we need a bloke like Gould or Bennett to clear out the dead wood and completely restructure the situation. Sure, we have blokes out.......but, even so, we are starting to look more and more like Dad's Army, or a place where has beens can ease into retirement.
It must surely be disheartening for the younger blokes. No wonder Benedict Fifita wanted out.

From my cheap seat at Newcastle Stadium I observed that we had a defensive system in operation to some degree and absolutely nothing resembling an organised attack. If it was it all hinges on one fella named Carney who is playing half busted.

During the drive back to Sydney my fellow long term Shark fan and I contemplated what changes could be made and what the return of Gallen, Lewis and Toups would add. Maybe a bit of go forward in our forwards?

What would the return of Robbo would bring ? Maybe a bit of added starch in defence and a second kicker who can create some attacking options ? or at least make the opposition have to think ?

And to affirm what Popper said about Newcastle always winning due to the circumstances, well, we'd been awarded one penalty up to about the 65th minute.

After contemplation, what did you decide Toops would bring? Has he morphed into SBW or something.

When our injured all return, we will be back in the grind. Finish 10th and whinge about our injuries.

Next year = more of the same. Boring crap that no one wants to watch yet alone televise on C9. ASADA bin Laden set to issue infraction notices and Gall trying to talk Holmes and Brown out of leaving.

Crowd v Warriors = 6-7k.

Spoon is nothing. Roosters won it about 4 years ago. Parra on the improve. Winless means we create a record. The only way is up,up,Cronulla.

Now slide back into your hole.

Just watched Sharp interview with Graham, sharp seems to be lost basically nothing left, Graham well each game he plays is another game further away till when he actually played well.

Only change will be Gordon out injured that will be it for a 30 point loss

All I see is a bit more go forward with these 3 returning, maybe some close range tries, I dont have any illusions about Toops or anyone else.

I'll still be supporting the team and the club.

At the moment unity are getting everything they want memberships are down crowds are down no sponsors and we can't win a game and they seem to me not doing anything about it. The NRL are going to relocate us they know it and they are going to walk out of here with a couple of million dollars each.
