LIVE GAME Round 17v Manly

[weststigerman]

We need to win and all Benji wants to do is pick players that would be in Jersey Flegg at most other clubs.

Meanwhile guys like Staines who has won a grand final on the wing plays NSW Cup.

 

[Winston Churchill]

The ONLY way this club moves forward is letting Benji go. That's it.

What the hell was Skelton doing?? He was right in ADs pocket

You have to trust the players around you. Park footy stuff from Skelton. AD is slow, but he is a centre. Strong defence is as important as attack for any centre.

Staines and even Naden offer more to the side than the kids. Unfortunately our kids suck. TDS is no loss. Terrible service and ordinary in defence

Mason and Luke will probably go alright in 2 years time.

He got lucky with the earlier cross-field kick, but not on that shift, notwithstanding a great pass from Brooks that got them outside.

We’ve always got such a hard on for our juniors but we never see them dominate

@balmain boy is correct. Our juniors aren’t good and are in fact far inferior to the bigger clubs like Roosters and Bulldogs. Roosters have a couple of 19 year olds who are killing it. For example, Blake Steep.

 

[BirchgroveTigers]

I think we should picked Staines either at fullback to wing with Turuva going to fullback.

Terrible half of footy but hard to be critical of the players,clearly very committed but missing fullback and five eight with halfback playing first full game - was always going to be this way.

Honestly, credit to the team they are still in the match and have a chance. Would be a monumental effort to get the win though.

 

[BAGNF05]

Im astounded he started Pole over Sione. Pole looks like he is worried about his knee since has come back as he isnt using any footwork.

I’m reluctant to use the O word with Pole but…

 

[Joelcainenumber1fan]

2nd half is here though and benji always changes his attack in the 2nd half i have no idea why it isnt the way we always play

 

[Winston Churchill]

Come on guys, they just need time to gel. Derp

 

[Fish88]

100 per cent this is on Benji. Staines or Turuva at fullback would have been so much better. Instead he’s picking kids out of their depth. Even bird at five eight would be better than mason. He can’t catch or pass. Horrible coaching

 

[Winston Churchill]

Come on guys, they just need time to gel. Derp

Where are those halfwits from forum in the first 8 rounds gone?

 

[craigtob]

The worst 1/2 of football i have seen in years and years.
Gee wiz we need to be active in the player market that’s for sure.
So horrible.

 

[Twal & Seyfarth]

Really? He has been pathetic.

Why what did he do wrong all game??

Its incredible Staines isnt playing tonight with Bula out.

Benji really is making some horrendous decisions

 

[Joelcainenumber1fan]

Really? He has been pathetic.

everyone has

 

[Brett Thurbon]

They are just kids. Mistakes are inevitable. Depth would always kill us this year.

And last year, and next year...You need to build a roster. Look at the Dogs, Roosters, Panthers, they all have a next man up attitude. Where is ours ?

 

[Dr_Ice]

Predicting a boil over tonight against Manly.

The boil for Jerome could have cost us

 

[Tiger_Yoshi]

Typical Tigers, try to the opposition 1 min before half time

 

[weststigerman]

Benji can get a job at the club as a player counsellor, let’s get a coach.

Sam Burgess, Brad Arthur, Todd Payten - any will do.
