LIVE GAME Round 16 v Raiders

[orange&black]

Benji clearly frustrated in the presser. Had his reasons for the selection choices made and his bench management. Latu is being managed carefully.
If the group can keep building on these performances and maintain their efforts i believe that we will start getting some wins up. The difficulty however is to keep believing in their process and in themselves when they keep losing.

 

[HUNT 101]

Can’t win too many if you have all the ball and struggle to score a try,

Yeah I watched the game,I reckon The better team lost .

You mean there is a process OB ? I’ll have to watch a replay of all the seasons games to identify it.

 

[Tucker]

I think a pass mark would be to finish in top 12.

Yep,I’d even go further and say win half our games.

 

[Tom Shines]

Yep,I’d even go further and say win half our games.

Not a chance that happens

The try saver on Luai was a hip drop AGAIN.

The foot out on the 40/20… the penalty against Bula for the non contesting run through.

Things don’t go our way. But we lose because we have a few reserve grade standard players that let us down in big moments. We lose because we don’t have the slick combinations because our team have been disrupted.

As frustrating as it was, the second half fight was extraordinary. The team looked happy. Latu is STRONG, zippy and has decent hands.

We are building. I truly believe that. We are three players away from a competitive team.

Agree but with a new coach.

 

[Tucker]

Not a chance that happens

We’ve missed that opportunity by dropping all these close games.
It was certainly not a stretch too far to expect it though.

 

[HUNT 101]

I disagree. We were dreadful in the first half.

Is it a 40 min game or 80 .?
I stand by it we where better just not on the score board where it counts

CROWD: 9,328 at Campbelltown Stadium, #NRLTigersRaiders tonight.

Supporters are waking up about going to the Graveyard.

 

[Hbom]

Back from the game. Any mention of Savage 5m in front of kicker before getting hair pulled. Captains challenge, yet play cleared up till the point of the incident. Find it hard to understand.

Yeah …that’s pretty fair… they have had chances to win another 3-4 games ..they look pretty shot now though …. Think they will be lucky to win 3 more games

the Fainu brothers tonight were all great

The place is a graveyard for the club. Can’t blame people for not turning up.

 

[Suzie-Q]

Don't forget the elbow in the tackle to open up Sayfarth

Yeah. That was nasty!

We actually got the penalty but Skelton decided on doing his thing.
But the big news, we lost, again.
Five in a row now !!!

 

[StarswithStripes]

We have no attack....its all ad lib...they make itnup as they go along...it gets you close but its not a winning formula

At times I feel like Luai’s jigging and stepping throws off the support play. No one knows what he is going to do and they stand flat. I like seeing him play freely like Benji did but I’m not sure they train for these plays. Moments of brilliance and moments of blah. Still we are always better with Luai in the squad.

Sam’s best game this year.

 

[Halbrowne61]

Yeah I watched the game,I reckon The better team lost .

Can we put that on the points ladder ?

 

[Droppy05]

I said a great job building the team culture.
He is clearly not on the same level overall as Cleary, Bennett, Bellamy but he has managed to get more wins than the last 3 spoon years, that’s a clear improvement and he has until 2026 imo

Unfortunately beating previous low points (3 wooden spoons ) in not an achievement, if we spoon again. Just shows other teams have also improved if we come last again.

Expect the unexpected. Watch the ball and be ready , just like Edward’s, Cleary , Critter, Bizza and co always did.
But maybe their brains are a little sharper than many of our guys !
