It is totally on the Coaching staff.

Picking Gildart when he obviously wasn't up to it was a mistake. Putting a halfback on the bench to play for 8 minutes was a mistake.

Playing 5 hitups and a bomb to a non pressured fullback every set was dumb.

Going to the left side everytime was a mistake.

All these could of had been avoided before the game and that's on the coach.

Positives though that we played 80 minutes and our forward pack is holding our own.

Yeah well Madge can’t coach. We all know that….
 
Real lack of runners and support for most of the game. Our work in D seems to be taking a lot out of our energy attack. With the injuries we have too many weaknesses in our 17.
Thought Musgrove and Tamou had a good crack. Prefer to see Toa and AJ in centres at moment freeing Garner to come of bench on the edge. Gildart in reggies please!! Simpkin on bench instead of Madden

Not sure why people are all doom and gloom. Yes, it was a tough loss. But it needs to be remembered we only have 1 of our starting back five on the field and a total of around 8 of our first 17 out injured. We dominated the game and done everything necessary except score the tries. Our defence was solid minus some poor misses towards the end (Gildart...). I saw a lot more positives from tonight than negatives and if we play like that for most games we'll get the results. Not to mention we scored a bloody try and the bunker took it off us

Hip hip hooray…
 
Can't wait till Adam Douihei is back.

Brooks can take Maddens place on the bench.

This team needs a bit if class from the middle east.
 
Disappointed with the loss.... dont think it reflects our effort and we were definitely robbed of a penalty try...
Thought Twal bust his cherry tonight....
We were held up a few times.
Gildart needs to be dropped.
Positives with AJ, and when our other troops get back this is a game we would win.

So I questioned kepoa coming in and no peachy
Kepoa stats 3 tackles 3 errors 0 linebreaks 0 linebreak assists
And I felt our left side defence would be a problem .Also Twal keeps burning 4th or 5th tackle .So why no Peachy ? For all his faults he does have some attacking flair and our attack against dragons very clunky

Twal tries hard but just don’t offer much although he did come up with 1 offload
 
Brooks our 3rd best 5/8.

Good try.
Need that energy the full 80.
Weak, low IQ player with a decent running game.
 
Absolutely slaughtered that.

Very disappointing as the pack rolled forward all game...and Saints had very little.

Hate to single out one person...but we all could see it coming. Gildart is miles off the NRL physically.

Madge has to own this one.

Great post mate .

We dominated every stat except getting the ball down. So many new combos in the backs just mean its too hard to finish off

This is why our selections are super important and why it's stupid to waste a bench spot on Madden. Eels, Cronulla and even Penrith in their first half were flat, so was anticipating it from us due to the effort from our past two games. However thought we went OK but lacked polish.
Throw in the injuries and it's all caught up on us.
The well has run dry.
Peachey and Simpkin would be wiser choices, as we really need to start learning how to score some points and they are great support players (though Peachey's discipline has been poor).
It's back to square one.

Brooks

1 try
22 runs 150 meters
Should have had a TA to Tuilagi
2 line breaks
5 tackle breaks
22 tackles 1 miss

Bit harsh. Think he went well, just didn't have quality around him tonight to back him up

Very weak game from the halves tonight.
Ignored the edge we shouldve been attacking throughout the night.

Brooks, better at 6 than 7 but Douihei is better.
Should find a new club.
