Laughing at the meltdown in here re Arthur. We’re you not watching the game.

Moses had zero runs, zero line engagements in the first half. He had 2 x 2 metre runs in the 2nd half.
he may as well go play for the Dallas cowboys because all he does is kick🤪
Thats where your problem lays, not some kid halfback for played the last 20 minutes💡

Seriously the kid isn’t ready and if he’s on the bench next week I’ll lose my f**king shit.
Nothing surer than Jake being on the 17 …. his dad has been generating versions of reality that create a need for him to be picked. After tonight the Moses hia will the excuse why he must be picked …. Meanwhile we go out in straight sets yet again

Good game until 30 to go...

NBrown needs to come into the bench.

Drown needed to take control when Moses went off.
I think he would have, if Coach went with a sensible bench for this type of match (four forwards).

I don't think we need to carry cover for an in-game half injury... if we have four forwards on the bench, then we have the option of turning Paulo into a five eighth role (in attack), and have the edge/bench forward options to fill out the line with decent defenders.

And if it's a forward coming on to take an injured Moses' place during a game - then Dylan is left with no choice (and implicit coach's permission) to step up and take control. Instead, we get Jake coming on... and role/capability confusions.

I liked it when Mitch’s first defensive engagement involved a complete miss that led to a try, and Mitch’s no-pressure kick out on the full

Moses was great. Defended strongly and his kicking was elite. You think it’s a coincidence that the scoreboard blew out once he went off?

It can, but not really fair to judge a halfback when his whole 20 minute stint was behind a beaten pack.
So does a beaten pack cause a horrendous read for a LBA, kick out on the full and simple drop ball when he should have dived on the ball. Tonight’s game wasn’t his fault. But it absolutely confirmed, without a shadow of a doubt, that he is not a first grader yet.

But. If but but but . If but if but
Mate we led 8-7 after 46 minutes, then completed 6 from 16 in the second half. You want to blame that on one player? Or blame the coach? You know his game plan is high completions. You're often critical of it because you know everything.

Yet we were in the game while he was on the field.

Whose fault is it for picking 2 forwards on the bench against a physical team where you know fatigue is going to be a huge factor?

so JA comes on, basically 2 tries down (yeah he was on for the second but hardly had much involvement which lead to it)…completing at less then 70% ….and Moses/Drown could only jag 1 try in 60 or so mins……but it’s JA fault for not getting us back in the game…..
