LIVE GAME Round 17v Manly

[426Tlgerland]

Luai out we should have just put Mason back to 6
Fullback - Staines or AD
Centre you could have played Bird there
API has to play 9
Latu needs to start running second half
Pole needs to be running onto the ball he has been at a standstill all night

It's actually embarrassing how pathetic we are and how weak our first grade squad is.
Mason and laulilii are still 18 months away from competing for a first grade spot. They are lightyears away from NRL standard.
Doueihi, seyfarth and twal are also a long way from a top 17 spot. None would make the 17 for any other club.

It's just crazy how poorly coached this squad is. No one has any idea what to do. Passing is terrible. Movements is terrible. Communication is terrible. We've barely had the ball down theor endr, when we have we've either gone one iyri through props (which is abysmal) or Mason has screwed up big time.

I just don't know how we can win a match with so many losers out there.

 

[Speed2burn]

Doomsayers? Are you not watching the game? Tons to be excited about eh?

Yeah it’s a shit show
Not many teams compete with their main playmaker and fullback out

 

[liltiger]

Too many of them though, and that is a selection issue. Especially so when Luai must have been in some doubt before the squad was named on Tuesday.

Doubt Dasilva will come back on if Benji hooked him. So we're one down on the bench aswell. Hopefully it was planned but Benji looked pissed off and was saying something to Tallyn as he walked passed him on the tele.

 

[Joelcainenumber1fan]

Mason looks most likely.

i think it will be luke who steps up i expect a big 2nd half from him

 

[Furious1]

I think we should picked Staines either at fullback to wing with Turuva going to fullback.

Terrible half of footy but hard to be critical of the players,clearly very committed but missing fullback and five eight with halfback playing first full game - was always going to be this way.

Honestly, credit to the team they are still in the match and have a chance. Would be a monumental effort to get the win though.

Fair enough. There have been other clubs over the last few years who mis 4 or 5 Origin players and don't miss a beat

 

[Tired Tiger]

It's disgraceful. What r they doing at training .it's on benji for me

Yep looks like strangers, disgraceful team selections and coaching.....

 

[TYGA]

Luai being out and we are a rabble. Serious work in recruitment has to be done. Coach needs a look in the mirror and I’m a fan of Benji lack of any structure to allow players to come in and perform.

 

[Joelcainenumber1fan]

Yeah it’s a shit show
Not many teams compete with their main playmaker and fullback out

and our attack is still bad with these players :S

 

[Speed2burn]

Dude isn't playing because he has a pimple. 120 years of players rolling in their graves over something soft as shit as that. Bloody divas.

Swear he played with a busted shoulder for half a season at Penrith

 

[Twal & Seyfarth]

Maybe we should've played AD in Halves instead of Api and played Luke 3.

 

[Moh]

Maybe we should've played AD in Halves instead of Api and played Luke 3.

Should have been AD at 6 and Bird at 3.

Need experience.

 

[Taoercwombat]

Away team dressing room at 4 pines looks like a broom cupboard!

 

[Twal & Seyfarth]

Should have been AD at 6 and Bird at 3.

Need experience.

Yeah, that's probably better.

 

[shifty]

What a shit team.

 

[Moh]

How is BEN Turbo flicking our defenders off like flies.

 

[Speed2burn]

lol FFS

 

[BirchgroveTigers]

Fair enough. There have been other clubs over the last few years who mis 4 or 5 Origin players and don't miss a beat

I’m well aware we are not the Melbourne Storm.

 

[Batmans Parents]

Unbelievable

Season is now officially over, see you all next year
