Te'o - What does he do?

[Tiger Hawk]

Honestly, after every game I say to my mates, "why is he starting, his workload is rubbish, he's probably better served coming off the bench for impact". Watched again today and I don't recall him taking a run in our half/working the ball out just content to take the ball once we're inside their 20m/30m. You watch Chris Heighington put 100% in each week, first forward back to work the ball out of danger, bust his butt and then Te'o just meanders through the game. I'm not even sure he deserves selection in the 17 next week, just hasn't done enough over the first 5 games for mine. Not saying he's to blame for today, but enough is enough. The pack has to change for next game.

I think he cant stay mentally switched on in a game long enough to sustain a good performance, but he is not friendless in that department *cough lawrence cough*

play him off the bench, he was one of our best in the late season collapse last year off the bench, he just doesn't offer the same spark when starting.

What marshall magic said
And prone to trying to throw SBW type miracle balls

 

[Navjot]

I think a few need a stint in the lower grades to put the wind right up em again to many going through the motions cant carry freeloaders.

Sheens `we will tweak the side'
Junior burger as captain and morris back to halfback
Head to Jim Beam cup
What a spastic we have as coach

 

[Navjot]

If any one needs tweaking like a guitar its the coaching staff and several players tweaking there way back to park footy.

 

[themanonthehill]

What about the visionary CEO who re-signs these 2 clowns for 3 yrs on the back of 2 abject seasons, meaning if they continue to underperform and need sacking it becomes too expensive. The same man that has given us 7 home grounds since 05 .. Leichhardt, Campbelltown, Telstra/ANZ, SCG, SFS, Jade, Bluetongue ... 7 !!!

I heard we are going for a guinness book of records for home games by any sporting team that has graced this earth.

 

[Navjot]

I know deep down its to do with the coin situation, anz etc but we give up so much advantage to other sides its not funny, neutral bloody venues, no atmosphere.

What do you expect? We have 2 absolute sh*thole grounds. Belmore is a better ground than both LO and CS but do the dogs play there?
We're lucky we havent ditched them completely and made a full time move to ANZ like most other sane clubs would have done already

 

[Tiger Hawk]

What the f**k does home grounds have to do with today's game in f**king Canberra or Te'o's performances this year. f**k. Am f**king filthy. f**king Canberra, just can't believe we've lost to Dogs, Pamfers and now Raiders on the trot. At start of the year said if we could split the first 2 games we'd have a good 4/5 week run in which we should win them all. After we went 2-0 I was starting to think maybe we'd turned the corner. What a naive mug I am.

Well there is your answer either they bite the bullet and move fulltime to anz and build up a following there every second week, a bit of tribalism and maybe home ground advantage, or continue with the leyland brothers approach and travel the countryside.

 

[themanonthehill]

We have just lost 3 on the bounce, conceding 30 a throw to 3 of the worst teams in the comp ... is someone going to be held accountable for the shower of sh*t we have become or are we going to allow shines carte blanche for his jagged 16 weeks in 05 ?

 

[Navjot]

AHH but there will be no panic just the minor tweak we have come used to,id hate to be a back on our bench unless there is an injury to another ,its an afternoon of splinters for ya.
