Completely unacceptable: ramifications

[pawsandclaws1]

I will always support this club but honestly struggle to see what changes we can make that will make any difference

We need at least 2 centres.
First grade ready.

Need to get recruitment going now for next year.

This year is a write off.
Blood some cup kings like Fitzbala, Pauga, Kelma and Tuki.

Hopefully Gildart and AD can deliver, our centre's barely turned up tonight, might have been better off if they didn't

Douihei isn't a centre.
He doesn't wanna play centre.

He's the cream of the crop.

I'd give him the 6 and the captaincy and if Brooks can't adapt, Hastings to 7 and Brooks can find the door.

Doueihi needs to learn how to tackle. His defence is horrible. He can take lessons from Brooks.

1 game Kenny is our best backline player.
That's not good.

AD isn’t the cream of the crop until he sorts his defensive issues out and so far this season he hasn’t improved. At least Brooks can defend….

Just breaking things down, 66-16 is kind of equal to 22 - 5 isn't it? Doesn't sound so bad.

Or 198 to 48

 

[bradexl]

Madge is delusional...presser was basically "Melb showed us the standard we want...momentum in the modern game...we know what we want to be....need to find our shoulders on D"....

I liked the start ‘we learned a lot tonight’

???

"We learned a lot tonight"... Serious Madge.
I learned my 6 times table in 4th grade but still failed maths. What did they learn tonight? Give it up Madge.

Whoever is responsible for our passive, back-pedalling defensive structure needs to be sacked immediately for a start.

On the money and take Madge as well for letting it happen every week

Who is defensive coach?

Actually, you raised a good point - for the first time in years I have no idea who our support coaching staff are !

The sad thing for me is that we've been this way for most of the season and the whole lack of accountability and leadership once again took centre stage.
But this time everything came undone and unravelled. All our worst nightmares came true tonight because the things that needed to be addressed 14 or 5 rounds ago, continue not to be.
No offence but I think it's as simple as being that we were found out for how unprofessional we really are as a team. The poor standards, structures and effort were exposed big time, by a team who are the best at doing so.
Who honestly doesn't know where our (WTs) weaknesses lie?
Any good attacking team will be lapping it up against us.

I'll tell you one thing though, I still don't know who our best team is and what our strengths are. Most teams are going from strength to strength but we show little progression as a team.

Good post Lauren. If you were to put that down to one person who would it be?

The spiral downward has been since Maguire started ..the team is worse now than when he started.

You can't make it pretty and cute

Its ugly ....like me ....no matter what

Forum meltdown has begun

Only taken 10 years

Will someone finally hold this club accountable

NRL should threaten the to kick us out of the comp if we can't make the 8 by 2025

But we make the NRL lots of $$$

Exactly!! Who the hell comes up with this crap? Against the freaking Storm of all teams, instead of in and up and bustle , some genius decides “nah, it’s the storm, let’s stand back and hive them time to run onto it and come up with something, and let’s not sting in defence but be passive and hold them up and assist the offload” GOD HELP ME! ????

The modern game is won in the collision and we play a passive defence, it is just dumb.

Great post Lauren.

Bellamy ran every play at our edge D first ten mins...everyone knew it.

Not a single adjustment. Not a single one all season.

What adjustment do you think should have been made out of interest?

Our edge D is the worst in the comp...it has leaked points all season.

LL is clearly not an 80 min player and he has no lateral movement. Bench him. Start Seyfarth and Blore and start with two defenders and set the tempo. Garner arm grabs, he is not a starter either. Bench him.

Nofaluma has not displayed ANY ability to read defensively...he has had years. Move him on. Like Griffin is doing at saints, tell blokes to go find another club.

We have several of the worst defensive players in the comp...yet Madge picks them week after week. He even pairs them up, which is incomprehensible. Everyone else can see it...

Madge takes all roles.

His assistants are yes men. 100% blokes who will never coach an NRL side...i.e. no threat.


Millard, who was last relevant in the early 1990s...and Wayne Collins, who was never relevant.

 

[Crucible]

Let's all get real here.
The Coach ain't going anywhere, because you cant simply change the Coach every time we get lapped. Our record with Coaches is the worst in the League and in any case who would want to Coach here? Only failed Coaches from other Clubs or Flanagan who in my opinion shouldn't be allowed to Coach again.
If you want to sack somebody ,look at the people who appointed him and that would be the Board, who, by the way, you cant get rid of.
So that leaves the players. I will start alphabetically: Brooks;
I will leave the rest to you guys...........

Nuffie the first picked every week has friends in high places that's the problem with this club ..others need to be punted that are higher up the chain ..there is a reason why no finals in decade ..Coaching turnover ..player turn over but the course stays the same what's that say !

Okay, so Madge drops Talau, Roberts Nofo LL and Douehi next week. Who comes in?

The coach is gone. The players won't play for him. Attempting to keep him in the job is just ridiculous after that loss.

Madge is safe as houses I reckon
