The shit list and more.

Great idea to keep Paulo on the entire first half while Mannah was twindling his thumbs.

Paulo is no use to us if all he is doing is defending.

One of my best, responding to Gaz, the ultimate fence sitter.

He's only on the fence cos its the best place to watch all you merkins furiously jumping back and forth from one side to the other pretending to know what you are all on about

Moeroa was one of the few who had a go in defence right from the start. But he was eventually gassed, along with every other merkin.

Lucky then we had a good defender in Mannah who went on in the first half to replace our tired middles ...... ‍

Paulo played 50 ish minutes straight and didn’t notice him return.

At a time when we are trying for consistency we go and experiment with something ridiculous against one of the best teams in the comp

According to NRL.com he played one stint of 48 minutes: https://www.nrl.com/draw/nrl-premiership/2019/round-9/storm-v-eels/

I provide plenty of opinions.

The difference is that mine are rational, whereas yours are emotional. You are grown man for f**ks sake. Have some respect for yourself and stop crying like a little boy when things don't go your way.

Who the f&$k knows. At times we look like world beaters then we deliver this shit. Has a team ever started with their only hooker on the bench and put their fullback at hooker to compensate this? Ever? And that said fullback plays an integral part in the teams attack. So essentially we started the game with no fullback and no hooker. Lmao

Gutherson does his best work up the middle anyway so it was a fair tactic. The loss wasn't due to tactics, it was lack of effort.

Playing gutho there took away the element of surprise. It was shit tactics, which comes before effort. Shit leadership by the coach

The tactic also led to a shit rotation of our middle forwards. It threw everything out of whack

Having no ball for the first 30 minutes threw our rotation out of whack.

Having no ball for the first 30 minutes threw our rotation out of whack.

Our usual rotation is Mannah on first (who we needed for his defence due to the lack of ball we were getting) but that couldn't happen because we needed a hooker out there to try and lead the line speed and play dummy half (fancy a rugby league team needing a 9??). BA then panicked and sent everyone on except our best defender (Mannah).

Did the tactics have a causation impact on the effort though?

For starters, did the players believe the tactic? If not, would that have contributed to the effort?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

It's possible. But the lack of effort came after Mahoney came onto the field, including from Mahoney. We conceded two tries in the 20 minutes he was on the bench, and nine tries in the final 60.

Crying and screaming at these inconsistent merkins is different. When Bellamy does it during every game he is called passionate but I’m a little boy?

Maybe you should try and understand my posts before jumping in look like a headless chook.

 

[hineyrulz]

Having no ball for the first 30 minutes threw our rotation out of whack.

Due to the poor service of our dummy half you would have to think this played a part in us having no ball the first 30 mins???

Applying your theory, maybe moving forward we shouldnt play a first string 9. Or not Mahoney anyway.

What that move did was take it both a playmaker and the best support player in the team out, yes the opposition were big blah blah.

WTF , you take out your most potent players, use your no 1 prop till he drops with exhaustion, and when you do that, Don't expect a different result to what we saw.
