No bench

[BBTF]

Thought the first 65 was one of our best of the year, but unfortunately I think the limited bench we had really hurt us compared to the cowboys.

Hunt gives us small minutes, while Murray/Sukkar come on late and don't add anything (they are not bench players, both toilers). Compared to the cows who are bringing on big forwards and then bringing their props back very rested. Definitely more than a forward short.

Yep terrible bench. Murray ans Sukkar are reservw graders at best.

Depth should improve next year

Haven’t heard of Seyfarth in a while? What’s his go?

Once he is back, along with KPP should be better

Suspended for another week

Actually thought we had not missed Seyfarth. Maybe coming on with 25 to go like Murray he may bring a bit of energy as Murray brings nothing (respectfully)

How much longer do we have Hunt on the books?
He really isn’t worth a pinch of shit in the top grade.

Have given Royce the benefit of the doubt because we need a big body but quickly running out of patience that crowd should have got more adrenalin out of him, now starting to think he just wants to pick up his pay.

Do we give him the off season to pull his finger out or if rumours are true F him off end of season, after today it's leaning towards the latter.

Think we're trying to move him on asap but he's not exactly doing both of us any favors atm
If we cant get AFS,try a cple of Warriors reserves
We desperately need more impact in the middle..our halves just get picked off

I was happy enough with what he brought before half-time, and seemed to cop a whack to start the second half and then didn't really recover from it before being taken off.

Can’t believe Charlie Murray didn’t get it done

 

[BBTF]

Same story every week.

Titans
Raiders
Cowboys
Dogs (Even if you watched the flow of the game they were monstering us 2nd half)

We need more than KPP and two potential fringe first graders in the forwards. We have no depth in our pack and we get run down every week and look passive 2nd half.

Our bench was actually decent, mason/big T were avg. but Luai and api failed to manage that second half at all. As your senior playmakers you demand more

Outside of their poor decisions and mistakes, the forwards couldn't go forward that entire second half. Did we have one set where we made more than 40m in that second half? We clearly tired and didnt have good players to bring on. The Titans were always winning that second half in terms of the run of the play. They looked like they were always going to run us down.

 

[oldschooltiger]

The use of our bench all season has been terrible.

 

[Terry T.Nuts]

Our bench sadly reflects the current lack of depth we have outside the starting 13, Hunt and Pole though should be on the bench in 2026.

If you are relying on KPP to be one of our saviors you will be even more disappointed.

 

[happy_tiger]

Nothing wrong with the bench

It's just the players we have sitting on it most weeks

 

[RonDingo]

No bench, no forward pack and now all the jokers on here excited on KPP to be our saviour.
Maybe we should recruit some more bottom 4 team forwards then we will really be a force to be reckoned with !!!
KPP just another nufty to the pack.
