LIVE GAME Round 21 versus Panthers

[Mighty Mouse]

It is the same shit every game.
Luai does nothing to organise the attack and our defence sucks on the edges.

The tigers need improvement.. we can all agree on that..

But there is a fundamental issue with the NRL when it comes to implementing the rules of Rugby League..

Instead of implementing the rules of the game, they have taken another path and utilise "interpretation"....

Interpretation basically gives them a get out of jail free for whatever they do..

I'm probably pushing sh1t up a hill discussing this with you, but I am sure there are others that comprehend the core problem.

In this game, Penrith were handed their first try on the back of set restarts and an "interpretation" of Izaac not playing the ball with his foot....

Penrith then scored their second try on the back of 6+ play the balls in which the Panthers players did not use their foot on the ball.. where's the handover to the tigers?

12 points handed to them, no fault of the tigers.. just penalties/set restarts applied willy nilly late in the tackle counts, which leads to them Penrith having DOUBLE the amount of field position the tigers have had in the opposition half.

Games blow out on the back of this - does that really suprise you?

The NRL has designed the game so they can determine outcomes...

The NRL don't enforce rules, they "interpret" them...

Who was saying during the week that McLean and Jenkins were no game breakers? Both have been really good again.

 

[BAGNF05]

To’a out, Makasini in.

And a new forward pack.

 

[Tim Sheens]

Pressure on Richo - he's the one too stubborn to sack him. Believes it will only set us back from another rebuild.

Kind of agree. I'm still not entirely sure it's all on Benji.

You put KPP on that right edge and stop selecting an obviously injured centre for example, and that alone changes the complexion of the right side defensively for a start. We need some more punch in the middle too, even if we go back to a short stint from Hunt either side of half-time.

 

[Jolls]

Can't blame Skelton for that one - stripped us way to easy. Where was the inside pressure?

 

[hsvjones]

We need to go back to start of season and bring back Hunt off the bench.
I know he is not a big mins guy but he does add the aggression we clearly lack.

 

[Moh]

Need to re-sign Taylan ASAP

It's actually insane - did not expect him to come back and play well, let alone be one of our best players in his first two games.

He is so good.

 

[Westoz]

It was a Jarome Luai profile picture, not sure which one

 

[davey_farrell]

Need to re-sign Taylan ASAP

after tonite maybe he doesnt want to sign with this absolute rabble

 

[Tcat]

Has Latu been hooked?

He's hooked himself. He's realized he's signed for the shittest team in NRL history and looking for an easier gig as a scaffolder.

 

[Winston Churchill]

Benji needs to call them out from the showers after the match

Rip off a door and kill someone while drink driving, oh no, that was Des Hasler and Ricky Stuart.

 

[Jimmy]

Any footy brain can see what’s wrong with the structures and movement in our team-not sure how the coaching staff can’t seem to fix the issues. Think a few of us could get off the couch and give the team a few pointers on how to suck less.

 

[Moh]

We need to go back to start of season and bring back Hunt off the bench.

Biggest mystery. Offers a lot more than others on the bench - 20 minutes is more than enough for an impact forward.

 

[Droppy05]

Penrith would have beaten every team in the comp today. They are relentless

They look relentless because of the opposition. When you have sdhit defence you can do what you like.

 

[becca88]

If I had a dollar for every time Starford To’a sprints off his line and barbecues his inner or outer man, I’d shout everybody in the Latchem stand a beer.

 

[TigerTone]

im done here...catch ya all later.

 

[Speed2burn]

This team absolutely sucks lol

No go forward at all

 

[batboy]

How’s that good old Tigers edge defence?

What’s Mitch Brown doing these days - he could really solve a problem for us

 

[Stevec]

Benji how can you possibly win a game when the team you coach has zero attacking moves
Also how can you win a game when your pack can't even make halfway in a set

Benji you can't coach !!!!
