It was past their bed time

Legit. Playing footy at 11pm would be impossible. They were falling asleep on the field imo. Titans had an extra hour of sarcadian rhythms.

Sounds like an excuse but I can assure you it was a big factor out there.
 
5 day turn around played a part imo…. They were all clearly knackered at 25 mins.
But every team has to deal with this... We need to deal with it.... Among many other things... Better
 
Before you load up on me I was there near falling asleep in the stands and we are an hour behind. My 5 year old fell asleep right when they did. For them it was about 10.30pm when their game started to fall apart. Have you ever tried to play sport at 10.30pm? Let alone first grade NRL. It is not crap it's freaking science. The Titans were even doing late night training this week to acclimate to it. If it's such crap why do you think they were? Did we.

Before you jump down my throat actually think about it. The 5 day turnaround and humidity would have made it even worse. Hold your desire to throw your toys out of the pram. That was not our real team out there tonight.

They were on a hiding to nothing imo.
 
Gassed from the 25 minute mark…it was humid short turnaround from Monday and fell into old habit unable to defend penalties and error...nothing to do with the time the game was played...

Give credit to the Titans they never give up on each other...they will beat a lot more teams this year
 
A circadian rhythm is any biological process that displays an endogenous, entrainable oscillation of about 24 hours. These 24-hour rhythms are driven by a circadian clock, and they have been widely observed in plants, animals, fungi, and cyanobacteria. Maybe these rhythms effected Moses' goalkicking as well. The team scored four tries and Moses only kicked one goal.

You spent all week screaming we'd win by 50 lmfao!!!
Get the hell out of here with this garbage.

I apologise for my positivity. I try not to add my voice to the vocal majority of Chicken Little's quite intentionally.

No doubt. It probably also affected Badger's one sided officiating.

It was the rhythm of the night.
 
Keep on topic.
You can't say we'd win by 50 then say in your opinion it was an impossible task after we lost.

That would only make sense if you were bipolar.
 
I didn't factor it into my pregame predictions. It only dawned on my while my snoring five year old was drooling on me and Noffa and Teddy were having a nap in the ingoal area.

Blaming the refs as well?
Have we left any excuses unused?

We got the rub tonight. We got away with more than they did including forward passes and using 3 markers…
 
I personally think that 7:45pm should be the latest start for footy games

The 8.15 starts for SOO games is ridiculous , keeping kids up to 10.30 to watch games , the NRL just proves time and again it doesn't care about the fans , just about how many ads they can fit in for Ch 9
 
I even threw the 90s dance hook in there to try and tip you off but your desire to flame is so hard that you cannot even see jokes.
 
Sarcadian Rhythms and Circadian Rhythms are different. The former originate in Sarcadia and are known to cause dropped ball.
 
Of course it has an effect, to say otherwise is laughable. Just how much it affected our performance is another matter, with short turnaround and conditions also playing their parts it's contribution is hard to quantify, but could well have been magnified by them.
