Time for Cleary to do his job and do what he should have done last week. Weild the axe. Rochow, Godinet and Noffa all need to go. I’d say Marshall to but there aren’t a lot of quality replacements waiting in the wings. Do the right thing Ivan. Accountability, don’t talk it, walk it.

I agree, but Benji has to be the first one dropped, does not matter who goes in, they cant be as bad as Benji has been the last month.
And all the others you mentioned should be right behind Benji heading to ISP

I'm over Benji … He should be at Centrelink .
But Ivan won't have the balls to drop him for his return to Leichhardt next week !

Oh don't worry Benji is the first to feel the axe, this is just a GnR backhander at the Gamble supporters

Not undermining Brooks at all. The issue is that he needs to take control of the 5th tackle options whilst in attack and better still convert them in repeat sets. He did so against Manly but recently he has been missing in action in that regard.

It's pretty simple Freddy, if Brooks can't take control and put Benji in his place then it comes back on Brooks.

I'm with you all the way here.

If he makes first grade you are going to need a thicker skin once he’s scrutinised week in week out. He won’t won’t please everyone.

Delusional if you think my focus is Tyson Gamble. I'm not even sure the guy is ready. I am sure it's time to bench Benji though

We did a lot of dumb things out there tonight.

Beyond dumb …16 errors :bash

That all it felt like 10 times that.

Gamble would be an upgrade, and allow Brooks to get back to his form of a month a go

I don't know what some of you expect, seriously.

Played first 10 of the first 40 with a man missing, only conceded one try with 13 v 13\. Did not play well but only 8 points adrift. If not for a few dumb decisions, could even have conceivably scored another first half try.

But as soon as they put ET in the bin - that's it, game over. You can't even judge the back 30 of the match properly, we were gassed having to defend so much and Warriors just needed to hold the ball.

It's not even that we played 1/4 of the game with 12 - ET was marched at the 46th minute, meaning we played 20 of the first 56 mins a man short. The last 20 was a write-off.

Can anyone tell me the last time a single side had two players binned for 10 mins? Especially with no corresponding binning for the other side. How did that work out for the side in question?

We are 5-4 over 9 rounds, probably better than anyone expected. Yes on a bad run right now but the comp is evening up, just look at the ladder. Panthers 3rd get done by Cowboys who were second last. First 11 teams have 50% win ratio or better, so nobody has really been able to put together a run of good performances except Dragons, and lately Souths.

Warriors are second, they are a good side, we would have had trouble beating them even if we didn't get binned to oblivion. Yeah we lost to Newcastle but they are 8th, not a bad side either.

This game you really just have to forget about. Of course Marshall was poor - but Cleary can't make knee-jerk decisions. If Gamble is a good replacement, so be it, but otherwise our 2 other #6 solutions are injured.

People saying "Cleary better make the required changes" - bloke has already dropped Tui, MWZ, Nofo, Aloiai, Sue, McIlwrick, Godinet in the first 9 rounds.

Pretty fair assessment and a bit of perspective.
