Vs Panthers Rd 19 Manu Vatuvei Stadium

[Warriorsoul]

Maumalo is sucking something serious balls tonight. His mid season form was a fluke me thinks.

Nope. The minute Kata turns up and Ken has to go hunting for scraps his form goes down the sh*tter because Kata is possibly the worst centre ever. He's all over the show on defence and the only time he passes the ball it looks like it surprises him as much as its intended recipient. he typifies this entire team, mentally and football dumb

 

[JJ]

Can you seriously blame Kearney for this though? If they gave half a damn they would be fired up for Manu and playing with some urgency and intensity. They shouldn't need the coach to provide that.

It's the lack of urgency that really stood out again for me tonight.

All season IMO nothing new, they suck from CEO to waterboy

So katas bad passing made ken drop a few balls and not even attemp a few more? Nope thats been ken's M.O. since the beginning of season.

 

[ZEROMISSTACKLES]

They should've just played Manu. Thats why we lost, because the football gods were disappointed we didn't field 'Veh-do-vhy'

i was going to take issue with you regarding the waterboy till i realised you were talking about mcfuddled

Such a curse to support this team. They always disappoint, but I can't give them up.

But what processes? what have we seen this year that differs from last year? Hes had 19 weeks to get something out of this side and honestly, a lot of their wins have looked flukey. Their defence is still shithouse when it matters, their fitness is suspect, their mental resilience is crap. Hes attracting not a single real powerhouse player for next year while we wave byebye to Manu, Foran, Matulino. We don't have a replacement for Foran (Hingano isn't up to it yet, lets not kid ourselves) and the clock is ticking on players off contract for 2018

Kearney needs to get real at the press conference after this performance, because if he spins the same shit, hes on course for an Eels style repeat.

I was in the camp at the start of the season who thought that we wouldn't make the finals again this year. What I wanted was to see was some improvement in performance. Especially in defence. And some consistency across the board. I would have been happy with that.

Hasn't happened though. I just think that the reality is that too many of these guys either just don't have the desire, or just aren't actually good enough.

We are losers.

Yeah I think so. Ken is still a young player. Not being able to rely in his inside player rattles him, puts him off his own role, question his instincts.

We are losers.

It's starting to damage my self-esteem >_<

Foran couldn't give less of a f-k tonight, one of the real telling stories of this club

 

[umina panther]

2 teams plodded at each other until the ref put you in front with the bin and then losing SJ won us the game. Both sides need new coaches

Oh I don't give a shit about the Panthers. All I know is we suck. Kearney is our new coach and I don't think we should keep axing the coaches while the players get away practically scot free. I don't like some of Kearney selections but you get that with all coaches.

The Foran saga rests with messiah Jim surely? As does the potatao coaching and Isaac's retirement fund

Joke of an organisation

 

[Philip_Smith007]

I was all for keeping Kearny, but if a better option came along he's gone.
Problem is no one is that stupid.

Time for player clean out.

 

[SpaceMonkey]

See you next year guys, I'm about done. I'd like to say it's been fun, but this season really hasn't.

Both should go now. Free up cap space, get 2 new forwards.
Jim on thin ice.

Cleary looks like a Superstar vs anyone in Warriors.

RTS is not a captain!
He was part of the 4 at the end looking at the ball bounce.
No talk happening.
Get CNK in for Maumalo.
If SJ had been ok, Foran out for Hingo.
Need to blood some young forwards but probably such a bad state of mind from others.
Such a mess of a team.
