**Live Game Feed*

I feel like our problem today was that when Farah came on, we stopped letting our halves call the plays and the game was driven one out from dummy half. We expect that type of play from Robbie but it's just not what we need for this season. If we persist with letting Robbie call the plays we may as well not bother resigning Brooks and Moses. We play best when they get the ball often and are allowed to play free.
 
Atrocious.

Farah tackled his ring off, but in attack made us all so slow.

Our halves were terrible.

We have successfully overplayed Teddy's hand already this season and IT'S ONLY ROUND 4.

Horrendous.
 
That team selection as well as absolutely shocking execution led to that. 2 hookers on thw bench? Buchanen evwn being near first grade? And if brooks and moses want 600 each or whatever… they better bloody well.put in better than that
 
Our salary cap can't be that bad that we have to pick crap every week to stay under the cap. Surely we could pick players on small salaries rather than Lovett Buchanan etc. to put a competitive side on the field

Farah comes off the bench and tops the tackle count and people are still giving it to him, i don't know what some of you expect from him, but the criticism is getting very tiring

The need for hole running second rowers grows… if teddy had a big lump or someone who wpuld cause a bit of havoc that qould make his job alot easier. Lovett and Halatau dont scream im scared to anyone defence just keeps sliding and focus on teddy. As for the halves... didnt they realise aftwe the first 5 times they got pressured to maybe stand a few metres back from the ruck??

Farah can only tackle and half of them are second man in flops. His dummy half play is slow. He also bombed a chance out wide doing his classic run around play in front of the sticks. He is taking the ball away from Brooks once again.

Are you joking?
He gave the ball to the halves the whole game. Moses didn't have his best game - Brooks played terrible.
 
That was a weird game though. Sort of want to be angry, but our defence was awesome.

I don't think much of Brooks, the attack was real stale, thought Moses was offering more.
 
Proud of the teams effort. Brooks never seemed to have any forwards running with him back on the inside and the defense were able to easily predict his options. Overall we are still a better side than last year.
 
Defence was pretty good. Attack terrible. No width, no ideas. Parra could have defended that for another 80 minutes.

Well as hooker my minimum expectation is that he throws a decent pass from dummy half not dribble a ball along the ground.

He was poor. Very slow from dummy half and most passes were behind the player receiving it. Happened several times and caused at least two errors.

I was supportive of his coming straight back into the team. Now Im not sure. The extra energy when Cherro came on was noticeable. Farah didn't bring the same spark when he came on after 20mins.
