I'm a little surpised by all the angst, what where people expecting?

No doubt we make some really dumb errors which put us on the back foot straight away. And we make some important errors throughout the game but I'm going to be positive, I thought there was an effort tonight at least.

Watching it live, it seemed thet Tigers did very well to claw back after twenty minutes and seem to dominate the game for the back half of the game.

Our forwards, espcially our middle, defensively seem to be able to handle their pack pretty well, Pole was awesome and along with Sam F and Haywood, things look good for next year. Second half not so much, errors make it hard.

Our attck is very average, its obvious we struggle to create numbers like other teams, who knows why? Is it the 5/8? Our edges need work?

And Bula should be used more or more wisely, you can see his speed allows him to poke his head through sometimes.

And Latu looked strong with some carries

Well the warriors could get there attack going nearly every time , if ur not up to it benji get someone in who can do it .
As for bula he is lazy , could do a lot more , nearly every other fullbacks put in heaps more than bula

So what you are saying is we haven’t improved?
To me it looks like there is no planning in place.
When injuries come, we don’t know what to do. Are bench rotation is always questionable.
For a club like ours, with a smattering of good experienced players, who hardly ever play rep, we should be targeting the middle third of the year…leading up to, during and post origin.

The only way to change venue for home games is by staying away. Money talks.

Cambo Stadium needs better cover and we simply need to win.

I know we played ordinary but I can't stand the over the top commentary from Cronk the gronk

He goes out of his way to sink the boot into the Tigers, more than necessary, wonder what Benji thinks of it considering Cronk acts all chummy when ever they cross paths during the season.

 

[weststigers]

That incredible win ratio really helped us in those must win games at Leichhardt to make the finals

Would love to respond but Campbelltown is a no go topic on this forum it seems.

Anyway you'll have a full season at Campbelltown next year. I hope we can chalk up wins there and make finals.

I would be delighted to be proven wrong because I care about the wins.

Yeah you're right about Bula, he should be more involved, hanging around the ruck and causing trouble, bouncing out of tackles, like many other fullbacks.

Worse than.last year without doing the sums

Yes last 10 is worse than last year
I can take losing but not lack of effort
I noticed a few players when they miss a tackle they just stand there and watch .also cant take " DUMB " eg Bunty Afoa
Also Pole 3 times pinged for high tackle
Also notice when Luai makes his 79 min line break Not one player in support
They look Apathetic which is unforgivable

 

[Stevec]

Think Benji should watch from the stands with a better overall view
Maybe he might notice how useless Makasini is !
Also our right side defence where only 2 defenders covering 40 meters from goal post to corner post
