LIVE GAME Live Game Thread v Warriors *Spoilers*

[weststigerman]

Laurie had a shocker. Ken and Peachey had a shocker the week before.

It can’t be just coincidence that this happens to WT players. As Kenny said maybe it’s to do with the preparation.

This team is where you go if you’re tired of the high standards of the NRL.

Just call it how I see it.

That's how it went down tonight.

Very much more mismanagement from the bench / rotations.

Api will be very impactful for us.

Liddle doesn't have a contract after this season
Simpkin does

I'd love to see Tannous become our 9 , Damien Cook like and Rua our 14/13 Cheese like.

My loyalty is to the team.

Liddle does have a contract next season

 

[BAGNF05]

Please. He's better than Twal, Seyfarth, probably Stefano tonight. You can't put this on blokes having a go. Take a look at Laurie, Simpkin, as much as I hate to say it, Brooks....every time we lose some people just launch into their favourite punching bags rather than having a fair dinkum look at what actually happened.

Do

I think the issues most have with Brooks is his ability to control and lead this team around the park when it matters. He's been playing first grade for such a long time now and he just hasn't got it in him to lead the team like a half should.

And you are all kidding yourself. Did he make noffa run sideways and drop it cold? Did he make Laurie bomb a certain try he set up? Musgrove drop the ball shortly after he just forced two repeat sets. Jock put up a completely duffed kick after he just put on a long break down the blind side. You hate him that much you don’t watch the game anymore.

Kennedy was injured last week.
Shouldn't of played.

Well, there you go...

We got options.

 

[Tim Sheens]

We had Gifart take off across field out of dummy half on tackle two. That’s not coached. That’s a muppet being a muppet.

And only compounded the similarly poor choices from the nine that shouldn't have been playing it.

 

[stryker 69]

Adam Doueihi goes alright.

Yep alright. Not great, just ok.

 

[sly]

Can I ask how Simpkin stayed on the field so long when he blatantly hogged the ball and did exactly what I said last week that he only has a dive over from dummy half in his game, I’ll tell you why he stayed on, one of Madge’s golden haired boys, even jock madden was blowing up about him going himself all the time, good on ya Madge , I can’t wait to see next Thursday coaches insider, daino is in for a big one, Simmo, he’s improving all the time, big twally what a physique hey guys, a real footballer. Whole place is a laughing stock.

 

[Cobarcats]

Nah, it's a team sport. We were crap. Simple.

Sorry disagree, it's because it is a team sport that we put ourselves in winning positions several times and also prevented tries through pressure all whilst we were busted.
We were not crap, we let ourselves down with handling errors mainly, it happens when it's humid and your fatigued trying to catch up. Definitely not crap sorry.

Well in the game I watched tonight we got into plenty of good positions and managed to blow it every time. In the 2 sets we had on their line Simpkin took 4 scoots and didn’t go close to scoring once. Totally killed the momentum.

That's cool. Agree to disagree. I just thought It was a very subpar game all round and it makes it worse when your on the loosing end

 

[stryker 69]

The bloke busted his arse tonight. He would have got us home too if it weren’t for a few others.

Which part of the last 15 minutes did he take control and do anything to get us home against 12 men?

 

[stryker 69]

The entire second half was garbage from both teams.

 

[Muffstar]

Sadly if Laurie had caught the ball, all these conversations wouldn't be happening, it really did come down to that.

Laurie had a shocker. Starford was as solid as a rock, possible candidate for fullback if Madge pulls the trigger on Laurie.

Liddle is a much better option than Simpkin - he is slow and stiffles the attack. Twal offers very little too. With the injury to Steph, I'd say Twal gets a reprieve.

The ref was bog avrerage too, it seems it was all about his ego.

The effort was there but a few individuals were crap.

 

[Aceshigh]

Laurie is not a first grade fullback , I can’t blame Brooks as i think he over tried , Simpkins very dumb as dummy half , lots to learn , Garner was good , we lack speed , would like to see Star as fullback next week

If Brooks was calling the play, Simpkin would have passed the ball as expected. Most good halves demand what they want on the field.

 

[Bones]

Well when the hooker keeps going himself it’s hard for the halfback, and yet he still laid the match winning try on only for Laurie to bomb it.

Watch it again, both Brooks and Madden were blowing up.
