Post match press conference

[Demps]

Lol not this dingo guy again….

I thought we got rid of this joker..

No show at the Kent, I know who the real joker is.

Hahahaha, stick to the gateway hotel buddy.
I'm not the guy you'd wanna cross.

 

[Telltails]

No, but if a Prop who is the Captain,And is a Test Player,cannot dominate and give us great go forward,that is a problem. He doesn't have any impact like Napa ,JWH, Fifita, Prior.

Not one of his best games today but he still had plenty of go forward. Woods did not lose the game today we had ample opportunity to win .
How did you think our defense out wide was today? Notice any breaks made by Parra out there;, attacking raids points scored? What effect do you think our outside men had on the outcome of the game?

 

[Flippedy]

The wankfest over Graham is becoming nauseating :unamused:

Almost as nauseating as every one of your posts.

Why don't you go off and support Canterbury if you love them and their captain so much?

Yeah good one flippy, your parents let you stay up this late?

Hahaha that is soooo funny!

Pot …..kettle ....black

Meh, that's rich coming from you.

Another boring forum hero, let's see if I can sum up 99% of your posts, mention some garbage about QLD and shout out to watto about something about East tigers that has nothing to do with the thread topic like anybody reading the thread wants to waste their time reading and then try to engage in debates with logical people i.e atheists that there is actually a god. Nailed it. Time for the Ignore button.

Simple answer , it's called the Foe button , ask one of the Mods if you need a hand to find it

Dingo by name ,Dingo by nature

Please don't insult dingos Hap, more like drongo. I think we're feeding the troll mate.

Yep, pretty lame response Flip TBH.
Graham wouldn't have stood there scratching his blurter in the in-goal and saying nothing while his team were drowning out there ala Woods.
Just because people use other players as example's doesn't mean they should "go and support that club then". Childish response.
Woods wasn't to blame for the loss but gee he certainly didn't lead from the front when we were floundering at the finish.

Back on topic ,how do we lose a game when we miss 15 less tackles , have the ball for an extra 5 sets , complete our sets at a better % , have a higher possession percentage and run for an extra 120 metres

You can't envy Cleary's job , the Partridge Family /Priscilla bus must have about 2 cylinders working , dirty fuel , no brakes , the plugs are shot , the wheels are balder than Telly Savalas head and Geo is riding on top in drag singing opera again

 

[Byron_Bay_Fan]

I don't know if Jamal created weaknesses out wide but at least he gave some forceful tackles that may have caused them to slow down. Reminds us of how the game can be played. thanks Jamal see you around one day and thank you personally. Probably wasn't mentioned in the presser but that was only new light.

You mean this is Geo in reverse drag? Like Woods he would not have the balls for the nymph reference.
( Bloody fantastic performance for a 12 year old skirt.)

^ 100% .. When Eels hit back and it was 22-20 it was time for the captain to stand up and lead. He was found wanting. No talk, no ripping in, no getting up players. I dont care if players feelings are hurt, give them hell if they dont put in!!!

How can Woods give them hell when he doesn't put in? A show pony of the highest order.

Yeah the whole turning on Woods thing has me beat. It seems like people don't like his public persona, his TV appearances and what he says or does not say, that is then affecting what people say about his game. He seemed solid out there to me today, not outstanding, hardly our worst and hardly the bloke to hang the loss on.

Some leaders don't have to shout and carry on at their players. You want emotion to be worn on the sleeve apparently, Graham and Reynolds and Ricky Stuart and Craig Bellamy all do it, it somehow appears to make them better?

Let's not forget Graham got done for biting someone's ear, nearly breaking a leg in charge down, talking back to refs and allegedly telling off a female journo. There's a real fine line between passion and stupidity.

Agreed Graham has on many occasions lost control and does borderline to outright disgraceful actions.Hardly a surprise the dogs are shopping him around.The last thing we need is someone who argues with refs and gives penalties constantly away.He is also on the wrong side of 30.The hate for Woods bewilders me because it is not based on his play. i can understand some comments about his captaincy and maybe a change in captain would help him so he can just concentrate on playing.If he leaves our pack will be far weaker and it is weak now

 

[mightymagpie]

In my opinion Woods went ok yesterday. The problem is he shouldn't be captain.
He does lead in a way in the way he plays. We probably don't see it but I think he's thought highly of within the team. But he's no motivator as he's so laid back.

Woods didnt play badly. He didnt losevthe game. But he definately has deficiencies in his game. His offloads are never clean, his upright running style makes play the balls alot slower, his defenceattitude of grabbing instead of hitting isnt the greatest eg when taumolo ran over him last week.

I just dont want to pay him overs thats all. Sign him up for whats he worth and get a new captain.

"Under pressure we were coming up with errors in defence, and that’s been happening for a while here so it’s going to take a bit of time to get some bad habits out," he said.

"But we’ll get it right at some point — we’ve just got to keep chipping away."

Hauntingly familiar.

 

[Seantice]

yep. but at least now we have a full salary cap to use. Time to get new players not brought up in this culture.

No one is gonna come , well no one we are speaking up

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Exactly mate, imagine if it was Graham at the doggies, he would have ripped his own team apart and then lead by example and tore in for the rest of the game, but not our Captain Powder Puff. The whole team is soft as pillows unfortunately it's the Weststigers culture and it's lead to one being our captain. Its all they know, grown up inside the system. The guy is a big body in the middle and that's it. $1.8mil for 3 years is all he is worth and that's being generous for a dumb lump in the middle of the field that plays 50-60mins max a game.

Bit rich mate when you have openly encouraged Tedesco to leave.

Enough sniping thanks.

I'm afraid I can see this happening as well. All these players off contract and we miss out on the good ones.
