Hahahaha ... Hilarious ... We've made the Tigers look like Premiership contenders. FFS if you want to play 1st grade for the big dollars HAVE a go. This team is weak as piss. Feel for Nighty in his first game as Captain. Must be difficult to lead this bunch of nothings.

This is truly pathetic. What can you say about this other than that. God help this team if they come up against a team that can actually play. I would say we would be looking at 3 figure scores.

I am so over the inability of this side to defend or score or attract a coach, or a decent player (who we do not have to pay triple to get).

Two rounds in and seriously this side is wooden spoon material.

Sad Sad Sad.

Lets see if the coach makes some changes. I would rather see Aitken and some of the young kids given a go.

Agree 150% Dorsai. When we play the Chickens and Hares they will put 60 on us. The likes of Cooper, Ah Mau etc. will be dominated by a Hargreaves or Burgess. It happened last year. This year is worse. The spoon is coming to Kogarah and we will be deserved wooden spooners. Let's see that idiot Doust talk his way out of this year.

Mary just f**k off now, you have been in charge of the attack since November 1 2013 and in that time we have been diabolical.

I'm just baffled at how bad our attack is. So what's the plan? Kick it Kevin Naiqama again...and again???

I know you want to avoid Tedesco and probably Farmer to a lesser extent. But what about when you have chance of scoring on the last. Where is the on field adjustment and change ups in attack with experienced halves like Marshall and Widdop?

Why do they look so flat, and why does no one even really attempt to support the ball runner. It's like watching a NSW Cup side. It's going to be a bloody long winter boys. :crazy:

After last weeks effort i expected more. I was all for giving Mary a run, even waiting longer before judging him,but based on tonight, i agree, bring brownie in. This is pathetic.

Welcome to the NFI club as new president ....
I could go on,and start the name calling for calling a lot of us NFI and saying we should give Mary a chance but youre not worth it.
You jumped ship quicker then those on the titanic, glad I'm not going into battle with you..

Lets see if the coach makes some changes.
If we are to believe the media, the coach is a real straight shooter who will tell the players how it is. Apparently, he is picking players on form so you better be playing well or else! Let's see indeed.

One wonders if the same principle applies to the coaching staff. Would be great if it applied to the Club administration as well...

Two 5/8th's, a fullback that can't pass the ball and is injured more often than not, and a hooker who is a tackling machine but is clueless at DH.

Two hopeless centres and edge players who spend most of the game charging at defenders rather than trying to find holes to run at. I almost forgot front rowers who cannot provide second phase play.

No sure what that's a recipe for, but definitely not for success.

If Mary does not make changes this week we will know he is just Price with a bald head..

Not really getting the catch and pass 10 metres from the advantage line then the last guy gets smashed?? It's happened 2 weeks in a row? Is that what they came up with all offseason?

8 points in 160mins?? And our Rolls Royce recruits Dugan, Widdop and Marshall all looking very ordinary. Gonna be a tough season .

Feel sorry for Nighty,

2 rounds in and we are gone....

Well done Mary, congrats !!!!!

BMoz saw this coming as soon as we signed the "Straight Shooter" and I'm glad that he can get to play under a real coach this year after having to suffer under Price and Co for so long.

Would prefer we play Aitken or Runciman in the Centres and while Duges is out, Dufty at Full Back. We need speed and variety in attack.

The team is unmotivated. Its a little early for them to be mentally flat.

Forwards still playing without Mongrel. No real controlled aggression.

Widdop and Marshall need to be given free rein to run the attack.

Believe what we are witnessing is 2 attack minded players being subjected to the Mary Game Plan.

Hope Fonua Blake and Packer are cleared to play soon.

Too early to talk about wooden spoon, however the signs are ominous.

If the basics aren't sorted by round 8 it may be time to start the BRING BACK BROWN movement.

We have absolutely nothing !!!
Its easy to lay blame with Mcgregor but surely the players have to be accountable as well
Our forwards wouldnt bruise a banana
Widdop looks like he lost $ 5,00 on his way to the shops , in his past two games and is totally dis interested
The Widdop Marshal combo appears to be going backwards
Our defence in the backs is wafer thin
Perhaps all the players signed to one year deals have been told they wont be there next year...who knows !!
Nightingale as Skipper ..Loyal Club man and fave with the fans but not everyone makes a great or inspirational leader
The Coach ... was prepared to give him a decent go , but after the first two games against moderate opposition , we have shown absolutely nothing in attack , and are playing like a team of strangers
Always thought Nathan Brown would be back at the Dragons at some stage.. perhaps it maybe sooner rather than later ;-)
