LIVE GAME Round 22 v Eels

[Suzie-Q]

Hasn't he signed with Parra?

So has Luai and he's getting picked

 

[Bellend]

Funny how when we ran the ball straight and hard we scored a try and bent their line. Until we get second phase and speed we are no better than a reserve grade side.

I wouldnt have a problem if luai played cup the rest of the year. His defence is good, but has NOTHING in attack

What’s the worst thing that can happen. He’ll ask for a release? Benji would never do it though. But I’d punt him and Bula to the Magpies at a minimum.

 

[ATown]

Have tried to give Benji the benefit of the doubt but that’s it for me. He has to go.

Yep feeling the same unfortunately.

Was waiting for Pole to take another strong carry after that. Still waiting.

I’d like to say the only way is up SQ but under our current coaching/ playing regime it seems impossible.
And yet our Seconds team continues to perform well , another big victory today with young Andrews getting a try and kicking 7 goals.
Why is this so …..
But I learnt a long time ago there is a solution for every problem, maybe we just haven’t been digging in the right spot.

We had it in Richo. But alas, it was too good to be true.

Bula has been the most disappointing.

It wasnt that long ago he was contesting every 5th tackle in attack. He was a threat. I saw that once today.

I have been optimistic about some of these players but I am starting to think we are on a road to nowhere.

Yep

 

[Tucker]

Harsh he was outstanding prior to his injury imo

That was a long time ago.

 

[Droppy05]

Exactly

He won't be coach for the next 3 years.

What do you do? Have some consequences for being a dick last week. Put him in Cup at lock. Make him play where it's best for the tram. Drop Luai to the bench or centre. They're both 💩. Put Andrews and Latu in the centres and tell them to play like AD and JL are coming for their spots.

Well there was no consequence for that ( although I think it was impacted by
Fainu and Madden both being unavailable.
Was it just me or did Douehi seem to be smirking a lot today ? Maybe he was confused coz when he tries to do too much he’s a hog, but when he doesn’t he doesn’t seem to care ?
Why did Nat make no attempt to offload for the first 60 minutes ? Was that a tactic?
I’m confused about that and many other things but I’m sure there are hundreds of people on here who feel the same.
I’m going to have a Valium and a Xanax and drift off !!

Or Madge

You’re such a jokester, Jirskyr

We all had hope when Luai, May etc got here. The squad improved significantly. But they’ve gone backwards, or maybe the club sent them backwards. Regardless, we aren’t going to attract quality for a while.

I meant May not Nat in previous post.

 

[cqtiger]

What do they do all week at training?? You could not script this shit if you tried. I don't care who is the coach, he has to be an improvement on Benji.

Argue about what position they each want to play after a vaping session???

I'm enjoying my wine 🍷 in front of the fireplace 🔥 No point trying to analyse anything when we are so shit 😔

The sooner Luai goes the better this team will be...he is a good player surrounded by great players at the Riff...here he has kids and fringe first graders and can't earn his 1.2 mill.
He probably is a nice guy,just doesn't compliment this team...
Benji really needs to recruit players that will better this team,it's just a shame we had injuries at a crucial period this season..

 

[Finger]

It’s impossible for an 18 year old rookie to let you down. It’s the coaching staff putting the 18 year old in a position he is not ready for that let us down.

100%

Try the 2; hour rule SQ.
Don’t comment for 24 hours and you will be a lot more constructive ( and sober).
I know these things ha ha😤🤬
