Fair call lauren , i agree with mostof ya summary , however u said brooks not that good , i thought he stunk

 

[Spacecub]

Get rid of the deadwood and replace with some decent players and we should be good for next year. And, no I'm not kidding.

Titans were garbage and did not deserve to win, but then again neither did we. However, some good play from our new boys and Lawrence should pose some positivity at least?

Next year we will make the 8\. Mark my words

Does that include all the deadwood ivan bought, so he can recruit another batch of deadwood

 

[momo_amp_medo]

Can we now actually be honest that the honeymoon period is over with Ivan. Massive flop. Is JT able to come back? Fail to see how it could be any worse.

The last thing we need is taylor back but yes cleary is and will turn out to be a flop …i have never rated him....dont know where we go from here coaching wise....no topline coach would ever take this basketcase on ...unfortunately we will have to just get used to being a bottom 6 team

SIGH :bawling

The attack was definitely better with Mbye, Reynolds and Farah running the show. Simply couldn't finish, MWZ didn't help either. Defence however has severely fallen off the past few weeks.

 

[TIGER]

Simple. Our forwards didn’t stand up and we lost.
We do for rest of the year what we were always going to do …. build up and prepare for the next year.
For anyone expecting much more of this team this year .... your dreaming!

Exactly, they stood up for 6 weeks.

 

[matchball]

I thought MWZ was frustrating to watch against Raiders but he truly took the cake today. I do not want to see him in our team again.
Corey Thompson was bloody shocking so am starting to doubt his value to us.
Marsters was too quiet.
Kevin Naiqama was as good as the Manly game.

We were short a forward. Twal was okay but whether you like Matulino or not he was sorely missed today. His defence is great, he stops guys in their tracks and is also capable of forcing an errors or two.

Lawrence was great yet again.

Mbye and Reynolds were good to watch and though I wasn’t really a fan of Mbye’s signing I thought he looked dangerous at times. Looked like we just needed someone to go with him.
Farah was better in the second.
Brooks wasn’t that good but then again Ash Taylor looked highly skilful compared to him.

Where has our great defence gone? How on earth have we fallen this far from grace? Pathetic!!!!

We don’t just a specialist centre and quality second rower, we need another big bodied forward who makes some impact. Where are all these Titans forwards from? Surely we can pick up someone from them. Or anyone really.

Thats tough on Thompson. He has been great all season bar today.
He has value going forward.

I’m blaming the loss on the forwards they are useless

I'm blaming it on the forwards, the halfbacks inability to use a football, the wingers, the coach and the CEO.

Ivan won 9.4 mill on power ball and blew it on crap !

McQueen :roll
Matalino :laughing:
Reynolds :roll
Packer :laughing:

 

[larrycorowa]

Same crap trying to win through miracle plays rather than grinding it out and then no ball in 2nd half. Jesse sue should be last game….we need some wingers with pace all our do is look to run inside. That said don’t be too harsh lots of changes and really poor handling. Just trying too hard. Don’t like Farah at 2nd reciever.

I like Ivan, but this rubbish about it being his first full year is a cop out. He was presented with a coaches dream of a full salary cap on his first day. He was blessed. But we hear the squad is not good enough. Whose fault is that?

Ivan’s fault !

 

[oldprop]

Well, I know we’re all hurting but if Kevin holds that short ball it’s all square. Instead Titans score a runaway. That’s a 12 point turnaround. Really it was a competitive performance. Can do better.

 

[trumper]

No team can win with shabby line defence as demonstrated today - three Titans tries were let in by spectators in jerseys.

 

[Byron_Bay_Fan]

One of my club mates reckons that the Titans try that followed the knock back by titan player would have been knocked forward first before being whacked??

 

[The-moP]

Watching the game live on TV it was clear that Grub was trying his best, scored a great long distance individual try, but in scoring the try I'm pretty sure he has busted that arm again (fractured last time). Not sure what he has done probably re-fractured the upper arm as he was clearly carrying it for the remaining 50 minutes .. !! I expect to read about it tomorrow and that he is ruled out for the rest of the season .. ??

Yeah that tap back ball came off the Titans player forward onto Mbye, then back to a Titans player for sure. Can't believe the ref's never got the bunker to lookout that properly.
