[wattsy32]

I have nothing to say, this day just couldnt get any worse!

 

[newysharksfan]

Does it mention who is coaching ????

 

[azzah72]

i can only laugh now..... hacks all round in this club.

I can only hope that maybe they'll drop cordoba and maybe pomm will play second row and tats in the centres, otherwise it's shyte.

 

[poonie]

pom and tt has been named in the nsw cup side as well??

Good chance I'll be offered a spare season seat in the ET stand for this weeks game. Not sure I'll take up the offer though. It's gonna be ugly.

 

[Hughesy215]

all i can say is FFS

 

[Frenzy.]

Honestly dudes, as I keep saying, it doesn't matter who the personnel are. They are set up to fail.

The only way out is to let the team go freelance and just play what they see. The fun has been structured out of them to the point they are burning out.

Gallen, Dougie and Snowie in particular look to have the weight of the world on their shoulders.

"Over-coached" is the term I think you're looking for.

 

[carcharias]

there is only a couple blokes in the NRL who are given freelance I reckon...one of them we play this weekend.

i was listening to triple m last night at the game and sterlo and joey two great halfbacks both said that we play really high risk attacting football which leads to errors. too much stupid offloads, long passes etc all a result of trying to make plays that the dragons etc do. i agree let em do whatever the hell they want in attack because it cant get worse, give em guidelines like "attack their left then shift it and go up the middle etc. Apart from that let em go Ricky please FFS let em go!

Nuh. I think oppressed is more apt. The control freak has them in a box they are afraid to jump out of

well said carch.
with a bit more confidence and a few more games under his belt, the only player i would let roam is albert kelly.

my biggest problem last night (apart from the f**king MISTAKES) was our structure.
morris isn't a halfback and barrett couldn't organise a root in a brothel.
everytime he caught the ball on the 5th tackle, he was way too close to the line each time and because he is the only playmaker, the bunnies always rushed to him on the 5th and caused him to pass or rush a kick off.

hopefully tim smith can organise our attack a bit better than what we have seen.

i can only hope that barrett and smith combine well.
if not, then move barrett to lock, gallen back in the second row where he belongs and kelly into 5/8.

 

[nullasharks]

any news on collis, for the little time he was out there he looked like the best centr we have had since....

That's a bingo!

 

[roboshark]

U beuaty. Pomm...hopefully he can make a difference with our poor handling from last nite

Oh , hang on............................

 

[Surely]

Apparently he was going to give someone better a run like ummmm oh ok I give up.

 

[Johns Magic]

Morris back at hooker where he belongs. I think it's a bit stupid to have both him and Aiton in the side when Morris is clearly an 80 minute player. Not that he's a bad player, but Aiton was money that could have been spent on a back.

1. Albert Kelly

bombs away...




1 thing Daniel Anderson nows about our team - kelly won't defend at fullback.
