@king sirro said:The Inu try was a disgrace. Siro slid across and went for the outside man, that was the right move as Heighno was pushing across on the inside….but for some unbelievable reason, Heighno went for the outside man too and allowed Inu to slip back inside. Terrible decision by Heighno.

That's crap.

Theres a few things i just cant handle at the moment. The 7 straight wins were a myth. We wernt playing well, and we still arnt.
My biggest gripe tonight is a set of six by the dogs after they scored in the 2nd half. All they did is take the ball forward and we let them make 75 metres....now that set should be shown to our forwards and a mirror handed to each player after they view it.
A few years ago Heighno went through one of the worst form slumps ive ever seen....well Blair is making him look like a star. And i cant cop this line of thinking that Blair is used to more stuctured play...thats crap. He's just simply in terrible form. He played well for NZ and they only have a week to prepare, so structure has nothing to do with it.

Benji's kicking....come on. This is a guy who would practise these kicks endlessly....how can he come up with those kicks in the 2nd half???
And how the hell did Cashmere stand there not knowing what to do when we had a 4 man overlap???? I dont care if he's a front rower, he has a brain doesnt he??? If u play football all your life u know u have to pass the ball if u have a huge overlap.
How frustrating is it to hear commentators talk about how important speed is when we have none and Sheens just wont add speed to our backline??
Now, all thats off my chest.
Great game by our 2 front rowers. Fulton tried hard. Beau was good.
We hung in there against a good and in form team, so theres still plenty of positives. Farah would have made a huge difference.

The whole Sheens / Benji era has worn me out.
Hasler has given the Dogs an identity in just six months. I am sick of hearing commentators say 'what was that?"...after we blow a key possession.
This isn't a 'team'. It's a bunch of footy players playing ad lib and when Benji's 'on', we look good. When he's off, we are pathetically bad.
Should Sheens even get paid for this stuff? Just about anyone could send them out to play off the cuff all season.
I just want a structured footy team again.

I thought that was all on Sirro. As was the miss on Barba. I don't think he can play in the defensive line in first grade yet.
I also thought Blair was a lot better today and it gives me some hope.
