    LIVE GAME Round 6 v Knights

    Why did AD not take the tackle quickly....this is probably the dumbest we've looked this year. Still very likely we win but need points

    LIVE GAME Round 6 v Knights

    I think its a dodgy call but we have let them back in it by going away from the basics that were working

    LIVE GAME Rd. 6 NRL discussion *Spoilers*

    Parras effort against us is always an outlier. They look pathetic today. I didnt think they really came that hard at us physically compared to our own intensity , so hopefully we arent as sluggish

    I was hoping you wouldnt bump the thread this time Mate haha 15th or 16th time we've had a crack and this has to end this season - if you want to make the 8 without winning three in a row you have to be worried anytime you lose 2 or more in a row.

    Shane Richardson

    My view. 1. Richo was not the problem and his tenure was an inflection point where at leat one person making decisions understood rugby league. 2. Richo was not perfect, if Galvin had taken his offer and played how he was playing now I'd be furious....other examples of this too. Vague...

    Slow starts, big finishes

    Its very possible that I'm looking too much into it, but thats what footy forums on work days were invented for! Just great to see so many theories about why we are competing instead of why we are awful.

    Slow starts, big finishes

    Honestly only noticed because in the first 20 I thought we needed another Twal flick oass to crack them haha I could be way off mark

    Slow starts, big finishes

    I see 2 problems stemming from us not being as dominant in the middle early in the game when the arm wrestle is even. One is exactly what you point out with yardage. The second is the attack seems clunky, everything is that split second slower off the back of standing starts, slower PTBs and it...

    The Cambo Curse

    Is 57% a fortress? I really don't know but I'd be surprised if top clubs are below 75. We are the worst performing club of recent years and it isnt close. Our stats are riddled with the evidence and even in our less embarrassing periods we made the finals 3 times between 2000 and 2012 so I...

    OFFICIAL Jock Madden #244

    Would love just 2 weeks with Jock next to Luai. Then I think we'd know for sure what combo has the most potential to have us in the right half of the ladder. Jock doesn't have to the perfect 7 at his presumed salary, he just has to be our best 7 to justify his spot and I think atm he is. At the...

    Im not convinced

    I'm also not convinced 100% but I'm very happy with the results. We have had similar starts, including the odd year where defence and committment seem to have been fixed. The consistent trend of physically looking stronger is a new one though and has been the best thing this year. The offloads...

    TEAM LIST Round 6 vs Knights

    I would tweak the backline a little. Maka not getting enough space at centre. Kudos to the kid for making defensive adjustments on the fly in FG, in no way trying to be critical. Just want to see him unleashed with a full head of steam

    OFFICIAL Jahream Bula #269

    Would like to see him in the frame when opposition score, unfortunately with camera angles bring what they are it can be hard to tell why he is often not visible and easy to assume the worst.

    LIVE GAME Round 5 versus Eels

    The guy hates losing to us and you can see he has tried to work the ref every time we play. He does it in most games but next level with us. He is a sly bastard, he knows this ref will play the polite fake BS but probably not cop too much outright disrespect so he comes in trying to be...

    LIVE GAME Round 5 versus Eels

    Mate I was so close to quoting you to say you were going off early, maybe when their young guy scored the second try? I just wasnt confident enough that you were wrong lol
