Back to the same routine

[Alex.Angelakis]

The tigers against the cowboys looked like they had no energy in the first 20 minutes they played like the tigers of old near enough is good enough the tigers with this squad should be in the too eight but they unfortunately need to get a professional coach or it will be the same next year Marshall has no clue how to coach always makes excuses for his bad coaching ability that is the truth.

I would like to think they could hang in there with one in the bin, but they’re just not good enough yet. Hell, some teams even score or keep the opposition to zero during those periods. Still lacking some quality players in the side, and it isn’t helping with Latu and Skelton still out.

They had no energy because they played two periods of 10 minutes with only 12 men. When you are a player down you have to work harder in defence, compounding fatigue over the game. The fact we almost came back at the end actually shows they are quite fit.

Our smaller mobile forwards go better when the sting is out of the game. All year we’ve been missing the jump.

Competed well.

Not an 80 minute team, still.
That was another one we let get away.

We're a better team than what the ladder tells.

See you have your training wheels hit the road on the forum and the first thing you do is criticize the coach, bold.

Par for the course on here.

It's a bold strategy Cotton, let's see how it works out for him..

The fact they came back at the end tells me they conserve energy by cutting corners in the early stage of the match.
In the opening 10 during the dingdong battle of the packs and kick bombs not one of our kicks were contested.
I’d prefer a sprinting line at the start of the game to put the pressure on to begin with than almost losing the game at the close.

Yep we need to recruit another big powerful middle with a good motor.

Brother don't try and use logic, it doesn't work with these doomsdayers

I disagree right from the start they played like they don't want to be there

 

[Alex.Angelakis]

With the players we have we should have been in the top 8 but they look like a badly coached side

...and at the back end of the 2nd half?

Is being bold a good or bad start?

But I quote” I’m really proud of the fight they showed “.
Hey Benj, we lost and this is a results business, not a popularity contest.

A matter of opinion depending on individual personalities, bit like humour one man's belly laugh/another man scratches his head saying what the F.

Well - if they were disciplined and not playing with 12 men - fatigue would not have a been factor. Any one else? Aren't we the most ill disciplined team in the league compounded with the most sin binned team.
