Pole in the final play patting a cowboys player on the back with a big smile on his face speaks volumes… they’re not emotionally invested in playing football at all. Let him sit in the crowd with the fans next week and experience passion (you know fans, people who go to work and pay there way in life)

For some reason I'm not disappointed in that loss. That was always going to be a big ask. Those young boys are still learning how to play nrl and it shows, it's the little minutes behind the ruck and 1% plays that just comes with experience. Hopefully with ice out sione fainu gets another crack, declan casey had some good moments and will take a lot away despite the loss

Yeah I don’t get all the back patting, we leaked like a sieve and conceded 42 points. That is awful
Don't get me wrong, I'm not happy
But
Benji got some good foundations with that squad.

Again, nothing to see here. We suck. We got pumped 20-0 within 15 minutes then they chilled out.

I think he basically said keep it alive. No real structured tries, more so opportunistic brilliance in the moment.
It was .we had some good stuff,but our bad stuff out weighs that .
I said earlier the whole side needs to switched on together.
What goes on at training .

With the team we put on the field that was a good effort.

I agree, pole was shitting me tonight with his bludgimg in defence and his happy to be there attitude…soft and lazy, and Klum had a bludger tonight as well.. really disappointed in klem tonight, we need him to stand up and he took the soft option all night… just conceded the advantage to the Cowboys in every area
1 - Saw enough from Feledy to give him an extended crack
2 - Seyfarth, Twal, Klemmer and Stefano are all what I would define as plodders. Sione Fainu and Matamua should be regulars. Pole has put the more senior ones to shame in recent weeks with intensity with runs
3- Lobb probably made more meters then Staines in his 15 min stint - give him a crack. We need more meters from back 5
4- we need to get API a break during the game. If we are only going to use Simpkin for the last 5 then don’t bother.
5- Samuel Fainu is a gun. They had bigger raps on Latu than him. I hope once he gets fit the wraps are true.
chin up. After 15 mins I hit the red but was glad we clawed it back to a degree

Young side, constant line up changes and inexperienced coach. Previous seasons have been far less competitive and with more experienced players or maybe I'm just completely numb given years of disappointment?

Unpopular opinion but Bud's showing real improvement
Honestly whose cracking smiles after 8 losses on the trot, it’s shameful

Yeah well they’ll have 2 weeks to prepare. He may get another run.
Yep, time to watch a proper first grade game of rugby league

My absolute pet peev. I can not stand it when players do not give a shit about the result. The culture of zero accountability on full display.

My only concern is all the losses hurting their confidence and stunting their development.
