How bad is this side??

[Speed2burn]

??? once again the halfbacks fault. We were down 18-0 due to cini not being able to catch a cold and Mbye being shocking in defense. The game was over then and there

What did Mbye do wrong, you mean the 6 on 2 overlap vs brimson??

That logic is the same logic your debating

Just face it our no 7 is the scape goat. If we had a competent winger who does his job properly and doesn’t put us under constant pressure we probably win

I can’t even watch when Brooks is picked as Halfback every single week......... he brings nothing, his passing game is abysmal, always picks the wrong option, the wrong pass to the wrong man in the worst position... he is deadset killing us as a team... he puts absolutely no doubt into the minds of the defence.... he needs to be dropped !

I really look forward to Brooks fanboys trying to defend this nuffie after tonight.

Brooks was ordinary tonight, but if you think that’s why we lost you have no idea.

He was one of the many problems. Problem is he is ALWAYS one of the many problems.

Another disgraceful performance. Brooks ALWAYS sucks and tonight was no different. Simpkins has had his go, Bring back Liddle who is useless also.

Our forwards eat it big time and we are rudderless in attack.

When will it end???

Righto mate.

It's ugly. Give yourself a break.

? Settle down mate. Do you always take umbrage to everyone who challenges your opinion, because ultimately that's what it is?

You're a moderator aren't you?

Like really, really bad

 

[Newtown]

This side is not bad. I have to give full marks to the team for the courage they showed in coming back from 18 points down. As for all those blaming Brooks every single week, give it a rest please. Your ad nauseam remarks are way and above snooze level.

 

[WT2K]

Pretty bad. Don't wanna say too much more... Would cop a ban.

No half back in the NRL suffocated the attack like Brooks

That is the big issue...Brooksy's low IQ plays NEGATIVELY impact the team.

Even if Madden came in and simply played a Fogarty role / short kicks and bring the pack onto the ball...and Jock did absolutely nothing else, it would still be a huge plus.

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

I know it's harsh but I dare say a lot of the blame tonight could go to Cini.

Whilst understandable that he is young and it's up to the team around him to support but calling a spade a spade- the multiple drop balls on our line combining that with the Don constantly out contesting him. We were put under unnecessary pressure leading to multiple tries.


I agree with you but its all part of a rookie learning FG football

Wow. I don’t remember any rookies having as bad a game as Cini had tonight. It was deadset the worst winger game have seen at nrl level.

He was one of the many problems. Problem is he is ALWAYS one of the many problems.

We conceded 36 points. THATS the problem.

Do you think it’s coincidence that of the 3 games where we kept the opposition under 26 points we won 2 of them?

The problem is people just want a quick fix and Brooks is an easy target. I hope he gets dropped just so that people can move on and maybe focus on the actual problem.

Madden has to be given a crack.

Brooks is busted mentally and looks lost.

Yes, I shan't be doing that simply because I had the hide to disagree with a couple of your posts and you have interpreted that as having it in for you. The issue lies with you and an inferiority complex there, not me.

 

[rihannafan1]

We're bad in the way a lot of young teams are bad. We make mistakes that experienced players don't, lose focus the way experienced teams don't and I guarantee that a few of these young guys will not work out, so we're playing guys that actually wouldn't make a decent side nor will reach 50 games. And like a lot of those teams our experienced players are out of form (Brisbane, Milford, Tigers, Brooks and Mbye) or no longer make a difference (Dogs, Jackson, Sharks, Tolman, Tigers, Tamou).

We're in the race for the spoon.

Remember that knights winger when we played them? Cini actually played worse

 

[Carefactor]

Both halves are terrible and devoid of a football brain.. lets kick every time to Don who is GOOD ... Brookes still isnt able to kick a grubber into a gap after all this time playing. Nofo is a show pony , mbye is garbage ... Simkin tackles and passes and thats all he has..
We had plenty of chances to defend Cini's mistakes but apart from Laurie everything we offered was hail mary suck it and see.
Going forward this spine has to change .

I don't see how we have a choice. Brooks to work on his game in reserve grade.
