LIVE GAME Round 21 versus Panthers

[liltiger]

I thought that was lame in under 14s in 1981. A coach should innovate. Do something unexpected. Change the game, change the dynamic. Exploit weaknesses and orthodoxy. At least try and do what the successful clubs do.

Spot on mate. There's no point in us trying to copy everyone else, we're no good at it that's why we've got 3 wooden spoons.

Our kicking game has been atrocious, straight down the throat of Dylan Edwards all night!! We made this bloke look better than he altrady is!! Surely we practice 5th tackle kicking during the week

No chance when you’re having to kick from within your own half every set

 

[bigsiro]

Only the depth players as we only have a dozen first graders, but most of those could be much better.

A dozen?
By my count it’s 6 or 7.
Luai, Api, Terrel, Turuva.
You could arguably count Bula, Pole and Sam Fainu.
The rest haven’t proven at all that they should be anywhere but reserve grade.

 

[BZN]

As if watching that rubbish wasn't bad enough, we have to have all the name calling and 💩 slinging in here.

Keep it on topic.

Thanks.

Wow!!! we're up to page 31 of 37 and I haven't been responsible for any of the "name calling and 💩 slinging"... do I get a gold medal for having been such a good boy? 😂

How do you suggest we get out of our own half with a rubbish 5 hit ups and shit bomb with no kick chase?

Maybe if he did something with the ball other than handing it out without being close to or engaging defence…
We may get get into space for an attacking kick - that he actually has the boot for

You’re not even up to scratch and sniff stickers or have your pen licence yet.

First thing he needs to do is work out what we’re good at, and build on that, whilst moving away from what we’re not good at.
We’re not a disciplined, robotic type team so throw that out and see what works for us !

 

[TYGA]

That’s what we look like against a premiership team that has to win. Not at that level.

 

[Halbrowne61]

Well done boys. I'm proud of you.

Have a nice Sunday with the family and see you on Monday.

Exactly.
Much bigger than our forwards lack of impact is the boring constant one out play without any support play or any variety.
It won’t matter what forwards we have if we cannot offer a bit of variety and support play, rather than this one out park football crap.

 

[bbobb]

I think we can compete skill wise with the top sides. It’s not a matter of capability but more of capacity. We did it for 20 minutes (each half) but fell away when our resilience was tested, firstly with some calls that didn’t go our way (set restarts) and in the second half we became fatigued due to a lack of territory.
Our attack is still disjointed and without forwards seemingly dominated and unable to lay a platform. We need to help Latu as well so as not to destroy his confidence.

Hunt has to be one for experience but the other 3 i dont see anyone even our kids in the forwards theres not many that look that good

Oh yeah, it’s all Luai’s fault

 

[Tim Sheens]

I’ve been a big backer of Benji on here but i’ve always called things out how I see it no matter what the situation is. Listening to Benji say in the presser that he wanted to beat Penrith at their own game just has me scratching my head… trying to beat the 4 time premiers at their own game? Benji needs to do better then that.

Wow, just wow.

 

[magpies forever]

Maybe suzie it's time to suspend some of these abusers on here

We always tear ourselves apart as fans whilst the team, players and coaching staff go blithely on.

They don’t care mate

 

[LeichhardtTiger]

On a positive note, at least Benji didn't say "It's not who we are" in the Presser!

 

[lathami]

Our forward pack scares nobody at least with Hunt in the team it offers a level of difference. Now we are trying to get him to lose weight, so he just becomes mediocre like the rest.
Our line speed is the biggest problem though, Penrith were at us all game. While we were waiting for them, along with no second faze play we don’t offer very much. Bunji’s use of the bench is appalling, it’s almost at Maguire level. Last nite I was scratching my head with when he was replacing players. So not reactive to what was happening in the game.
Again I don’t blame Bunji he’s just to ego based, it’s Richo that needed to pull his head in. We needed an experienced coach to support him not all of his mates!

Benji has no idea what our game is let alone Penriths. He needs to fix this shit quick or he's gone.

Good job mate , i reckon a few expletives should be able to slip through to the keeper after that crap 😂
