LIVE GAME *SPOILERS* Round 2 vs Raiders

[Todd Packer]

Bula to me doesn't play like someone who knows he's special.
Blokes like Turbo, Teddy and even the Parra dickhead play with a level of arrogance. They know they're good and they get involved in everything.
He just doesn't get involved nearly enough.

 

[Furious1]

Because we are a poor club. I know it’s hard to acknowledge when you have an emotional connection, but facts are facts.

Not hard for me to acknowledge at all. I just personally wouldn't have resigned some players that clearly haven't been anything but reserve graders. All clubs have the same cap.

Or a real coach. The ammunition is there. Just no General ATM

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Robbie Farah??? You serious. The guy sulking on the scoreboard... really..... one of our generals.....

 

[Todd Packer]

Anyhow I'll have a good sleep, wake up tomorrow and watch the replay, then convince myself there's many positives that came out of it and on to next week we go.

Can't tackle....can't pass...can't kick...can't offload and ill discipline...WHAT exactly did we do in the off season???

I asked myself the same question. 10 minutes of promising play. 70 minutes of how to win the wooden spoon.

Exactly. Give a kid a chance who is committed to us.

Really did u not watch our gun kids in NSW cup they were woeful and that’s been kind to them

 

[rozelle_rudy]

Correct! If anything the ref kept the score closer than it should’ve been. Lucky to not lose by 50.

Really? Two Raiders tries were off ref errors. The Levi try, forward pass. The Savage blind side try, a strip penalty that wasn't.

I couldn't brother . I missed it. So I'm with you on this one. I stand corrected.

1. Bula
2. Lobb
3. Olam
4. Faataape
5. Naden
6. Galvin
7. Sezer
8. Stef
9. Api
10. Klemmer
11. Papi
12. Bateman
13. Sa Fainu

14. Matamua
15. Pole
16. Si Fainu
16. Twal

That would be close to my team when fitness allows. Olam and Naden not back for round 3.

Api needs a bench hooker, we can't expect him to carry the side for the whole 80. Simpkin to replace S Fainu.

I don't know who the answer at 13 is. Sam Fainu is probably worth trying. Or Matamua again.

 

[rozelle_rudy]

So you are blaming the ref are you?
Thats embarrassing....

It wasn't a well officiated game, but that's no excuse for a 20 point loss.

Please apply for top job. You seem to.know.

The answer is POLE!!!

For now - and Faagutu in the future...

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

North Pole!!!😆😆😆😆

 

[rozelle_rudy]

Simply can't score points. Can't stop giving away penalties. Can't hold the ball.

That recipe equals losses.

Can't back up a runner. Can't kick (except a couple Galvin did). Can't compete for a high kick when we have 4 players there.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

You gotta learn to.tackle first. Keep the home safe.

 

[rozelle_rudy]

Makes 2 of us.. also the referee is terrible and yet it seems this is the referee supporters forum from all the little trolls that rush in to support them.. 😅😂🤣

Yes, the officiating was not good.
No, we shouldn't focus on it when it's not the reason for the loss.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Horrible. But good teams don't talk about ref's too much...

 

[rozelle_rudy]

If benji is serious drop Topou,Bud,Bateman and Paps .all pathetic. Paps can piss of early like he keeps hinting.

What about Staines, Toa, Seyfarth?
There's no depth to replace that many players. Magpies were thrashed today.
