LIVE GAME Round 18 versus Dragons

Live Game Discussion
Yes .the coach and the depth of the squad are big factors over the course of the season …but the last 2 games is mostly on the players in my view ….both games were there to be won with more disciplined play and effort ..
exactly such poor effort
I think too much of this bro culture
if benji got sacked who would look to leave
maybe
terrel may
taylan may
turuva
Sam F
Latu
 
I think it's clear the reason why we have our assistant coaches is because they are all we can get. Bit like our head coach.
They are all here because they have a fondness for the club and are willing to do the job.
 
Yeah he was peeing me.off too last nite...looked.like he didnt want to be there...pretty half hearted....ive supported him from day dot but fast running out of patience with him.
When was his last line break? Never seems tonget thru even when up against forwards out wide
Not only last night but of recent weeks. Very rarely follows the ball in defence and when he does, he is jogging. No sense of urgency. Always johnny come lately.
 
About the only thing I can offer in defence of the tigers is that most teams struggle without their first choice second rowers. But the brain fades are 100% on the players and they have 0 accountability

I had corporate Box Tickets for the Wallaby's game last night..

Heart before head was a mistake...

The hardest thing is that I still Love these tigers
 
A disturbing display that lacked intent and a capacity to deal with adversity. There is clearly a problem with culture and Benji is being exposed as a Coach without experience or any credible formulas. Fans loyalty is being challenged. Need to play fellas that have a hard competitive edge, a work ethic and that are not lazy. At least five or six of that team tonight do not have those characteristics. Appalling attack shape, entirely predictable and easy to defend, makes you wonder at the lack of creativity from Coaches
Hey Welc to the Forum.

Good First post
 
Where have our offloads gone?
I have noticed this .. Twal and May were offloading machines in the first 10 rounds … not one from either of them last night

Our game plan seems to have changed to deal with our injuries. We look like we just want to play high completion footy and not risk the pass, which doesn’t suit our players one bit
 
Iv got nothing but huge respect for Latu, whether he makes it as a half or not iv no clue. But hes sitting there being usedas a hooker, lock, 5/8 and reserve grade half and hasnt ever been given a fair go. Yet Galvin had the jeys to the kingdom handed to him. Not once has Latu done anything other than say he will play wherever the team needs him. It must be tough to watch abd nust be real tough on his confidence. Now we have Madden there who isnt doing much abd hes still watching from the sideline. Benji should either use him or release the kid. Dont stuff his career up because were unsure. Only way to be sure is to give him the 7 and stick with him fir a while.
100%
 
I think we know why the Warriors were willing to let Bunty walk. He's great as an impact forward off the bench for a 10-20 minute stint but he does become a massive liability on defense if he is on for any extended period. That and Terrell playing too many minutes is just asking for trouble towards the back end of games. Liddle isn't exactly the best DH but he was carving us up towards the end when they were just marching through our middle. Also was incredibly frustrating that we didn't exploit the fact that Cook was playing in the centers.

Also because they have no trouble replacing Bunty type players.
 
None of the players ran with any intensity..
The urgency to get back across after that break and the big shift back to the left made me want to vomit in my mouth.

Doueihi was the only one that got close to getting back there, the others were not much more than a token jog in that direction. Putrid.

Gutho on no knees would have got over there…
