Same crap still happening?
Learnt nothing?
And people wonder why some want a new coach

And if we got Bennett and the same crap kept continuing Ink ??

If

if if if

If I knew that then I'd know next weeks lotto numbers too.
Pretty stupid question dont you think?

All we can go on is the past, they are the facts. The future is unknown.
The stupid question was aimed at your stupid point

A lot of teams are still doing things they were doing 2 seasons ago and seeing it has been fairly successful in our case I imagine we will continue

yeh Ink, Melbourne, Brisbane, St. George & manly are still doing the same things they were doing 2 years ago and so are we - we are in good company :bash

Stupid mistakes = a stupid point.

OK happy….you know, when your mind is closed ....logic flies out the window.
You carry on pretending that were are moving forward.

Well Ink if we keep getting the 2 points every week we are moving forward

Just because you want to draw a beautiful picture of how that happens thats fine , you do that

We can look like the ugliest duckling as far as wins are concerned , but if we keep getting the 2 points I don't care if Sheens a wearing a clown suit in the coaches box Its still 2 points mate

Let's see if we continue to get the two points when we play some decent opposition, not two of the worst teams in the comp.

I really couldn't care how we get our wins Hybrid I know most on here want to see repeats of Warriors game in 2010 when we score at faster than a point a minute and put 50 on every team but we both know that isn't going to happen

I am hoping we build gradually and are hitting our best form by the semis and are thereabouts and we are keeping opposition sides to under 14 points At the moment just getting wins does the job.

Yes we have to improve , but we have time to improve and I would rather we play like that against Parra now than play like that against Melbourne in Round 26

 

[whoneedstherapy]

Considering Scotty Prince is out i would hope we wrap this up easily. Call me stupid but i'd even settle for us clocking off again with the job done with 15 to go… provided the job is done. Maybe sheens should tell them they can clock off with 20 to go provided they are up 44+ and see how that goes for a change. They seem to clock off anyway so might as well set them a target for it.

I expect them to have alot of go forward but we should be able to deal with that.

It cost us last year in our last game, the year before in the big ones….unable to close out a win when in front... ugly costs you eventually, we have to learn and history shows we are not moving forward in this regard.
Open your eyes

Ink the only reason we lost last season was because Gibbs got injured If he stays the 80 we win
Ink the only reason we lost in 2010 was because Payten got injured If he plays we win

Mate only one of us has a closed mind ,you want Sheens gone no matter what he does

I look at it and say imagine where we would be if we hadn't initially signed Sheens

 

[innsaneink]

Oh…we are back to the - if's - again. Real strong argument the 'ifs'.

No point wasting any more time here

 

[simonthetiger]

Well off u go then Scrooge.

We were up 14-0 after 13 mins, and went down 20-14 IIRC

Same crap still happening?
Learnt nothing?
And people wonder why some want a new coach

Mr make a baseless comment ,throw a hand grenade on the Forum and run away

And you call me the troll :laughing:

How does this game compare to this season ??

And if my grandmother had wheels, she'd be a bus…

Can only go on what's in front of us and that is past results. Ink does have a point and TBH Happy, it culminated last year in the biggest game of the year that we played where we were run down from behind to lose in the last two minutes of the game.

It is an inherent issue amongst the playing group and the coaching staff and it's up to them to rectify it. Given it has happened before Sheens got here, but it's a frequent occurrence now and every team in the comp (especially after last weekend) will now go into the last fifteen minutes of the game knowing they're full well in with a chance if they're 20-30 points behind.

In a game where we lost Bryce Gibbs and there can be no argument Losing Gibbs lost us that game Any person who thinks otherwise needs their head read We had control of everything before he went off

Unfortunately Happy, I'm of the opinion that champion sides adapt and produce the goods, especially in the clutch games. Every player* should have dug deeper and found that little bit extra to get over the line in a game like last years Warriors final.

* Disclaimer: I am not blaming any player for the outcome of that game, just illustrating my viewpoint.

The problem was we had lots of clutch games back to back , we lose any of 8 games leading up to the finals we miss Top 4 Fact

We were injury riddled from Round 3 through to Round 16 We'd get one back we lose two The problem was we were having to dig deep week in week out Fact

You can't blame Sheens for the injuries and seeing we had our biggest winning streak in the club's history also tears your's and Ink's argument to shreds

This season hasn't been as bright as we had hoped or expected but a lot of us (myself included ) hoped that some things would over ride the fact we didn't have a recognized 7 and compounding that we lost our No 1 30 minutes into the season Add to that losing Keefy and Gareth has probably amplified we were light on up front

So yet again the supposedly faithful have lost faith yet again Don't worry us fans , who aren't fair weather fans who can understand and accept we won't win every game by 50 and may actually lose a few games along the way will show you the way

Pretty certain Sheens doesn't coach them to give up like we did :crazy . Maybe the senior players should of taken the responsibility and told the boys to get their heads outta their arses after Parra's 2nd or 3rd try.
Some people on here keep bleating about punting Sheens- tell me which other coaches are out there available that are going to do any better of a job with our side.
The coach can only do so much-once half time is over it is all up to the players to provide their own motivation, spirit and attitude

 

[supercoach]

Even when we were up 31 blot last week I didnt think we were playing that well, rather than the eels were shocking.So after the last 15 minutes Iam not that confident up their at Skill park especially when you look at our record on their home ground.

We really need a big win to get some good vibes back in the camp

Ease up mate, I'm not saying I don't have faith in the team or anything, BUT it's a pattern that seems entrenched in this clubs mentality. It's happened long before Sheens got here in 2003.

I have complete faith the team will be there at the business end of the season. We've had a rusty start but we are starting to put the points together (albeit against cellar dwellers,) but that breeds confidence amongst the playing group. What I can't excuse is being run down like that, which the current playing group has a panache for. From where I sit, it doesn't happen this often at other clubs. Parramatta should have been dead in the water and managed to romp home five tries.

We have a terrible history of closing out games and we rarely go for the jugular. I'm not debating that Sheens or the playing group is or isn't doing a good job, what I'm saying is there is an issue which they need to address as it has already cost us dearly in the past and will continue to cost us in the future unless it is rectified.

I hope we don't see it again this year, but as they say bad habits are hard to kick.
