Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

It doesn’t matter which forwards we sign. After they spend 6 months at the club they run like they’re in quick sand.

Happened to Klemmer, Ice and looks like it’s now happened to May.

Its obviously the coaching we all know Benji was a kneejerk appointment and probably isnt what we need at this point of time.
I was concerned guys like Luai might jump ship if Benji was moved on, but i really don't care anymore if they go they go.
Every week we don't seem to have any plan, some of the team selections are mind blowing still, that all sits on our coaching structure.
I don't want the club the be held to ransome by Benji and friends, if we get another spoon i want him gone. The players that therefore participated in that feat shoudn't have any drama's if that the case, they're part of the problem.

Luai has never played behind a pack beaten so badly in his career.

The halves can’t do anything with that. It’s made even harder by Benji moving everyone around mid game.

That’s crap , the reason we don’t go forward is because we have no depth and no one organised the backs , even the drag queens has great depth with dummy runners, but not us we are always level can win with no depth

We have half the spine of the team who were premiers. They did okay there including when Cleary was out injured.

Sometimes you have to stop blaming the halves.

Our long kicking game is very poor, our kick chase today was extremely poor, conceding 10 line breaks at NRL level is totally unacceptable and we struggled to dominate in the tackle which had us constantly on the back foot.

They get paid the big bucks and therefore have the responsibility to ensure the team is organised on the field. They are the leaders ( or they should be ).

As a passed coach , if my halves didn’t organise the backs and plays they wouldn’t be there the next week , SO u say stop blaming the halves , who the hell do u blame , that’s there bloody job
 
Our pack was weak today. Benji needs to put Dou in 13. Move Fianu to start prop and bring twal and Pole of the bench. May to centre. Terrel needs 15min break each game so can give more impact. Toa is a defensive liability. Staines needs to stay as his yardage runs are prob best in team. Maybe when Bula is back Sunia to centre or Bula to centre.

Many parts of their game is poor … it would be much easier to list the areas that are adequate

Both halves were poor today.
Our attack always looks much better when we have a first receiver digging in and getting across the advantage line fast.
It worked from an attacking point of view when Latu has briefly played that role, it has looked ok in glimpses with Bird playing that role and looked much better today once Doueihi played that role.
We don’t have enough speed or creativity in our team to be able to afford a 3rd prop such as Twal playing 13.
I realise the theory is playing a 3rd prop at 13 as an extra big body, particularly when defending, but it’s stunting our attack, making us predictable with far too much one out running which is farthest for our opponents to condense their defence.
What are your thoughts on what is going wrong Snidest ?

Do we consider using Royce for the first 10 minutes of the game at 13 then bring on doueihi before a longer term option becomes available?

rinse repeat - is our downfall
 
Here’s some tips for next weeks game benji 1) don’t try and take the titans forwards on , up the middle there weakness is out wide
2) take no dummmys from Campbell or Brimson , and make sure wingers stay out on there man
3) and for god sake get some depth in our attack with decoy runners
4) it’s not that bloody hard benji , u got a whole week to get it right
 
I'm not 100 % sure .....but Taylan May is only on a train and rrial for this season
Confused because many seem to be already talking for 2026
