****WE ARE AN EMBARRASMENT*****

[stryker]

LOL at the Farrah knockers. You guys are holding on to the preconceptions you had over the off season when the drama was going on.

Your colours are showing and it's ridiculous. He may not be as quick as he used to be but is still giving clean ball to the playmakers well before the ad line, is making good meters from dummy half, is kicking into space rather than putting up midfielders and is tackling his bum off.

Find another whipping boy. He is playing well.

 

[Winnipeg]

Farah's going OK.

I think he needs to pull back his involvement in the attack, but only by about 5%

I don't mind him sharing the kicking and taking the odd run, but he's just slightly overplaying his hand IMO

We need his tackling, possibly playing him at lock is another option

He found heaps of space behind the dead ball area , one decent kick all game

Yes he defends his ring out and no one will question that ,ever

The ball might be clean , but it is so slow and he has the backline stuttering because they have no idea what he has up his sleeve next

And you say he has slowed down yes , nailed it , what the use of a hooker getting out of dummy half if he isn't asking questions of the defence

Look at Granville , he picks and chooses his time and creates things , doesn't play for penalties

But as I said before to you , I'd think twice before passing to Brooks and he must be frustrated

 

[stryker]

He hasn't slowed down that much Happy. Did you miss his line breaks today? What about last week?

Its a nonsense argument.

Exactly. I get that Robbie did some stupid things today. It's the sort of stuff that lost us critical games when we were going a lot better. I don't think it had anything to do with losing us games now though.

He may be over playing his hand a touch but I think that is because he is trying to break up the monotony and predictability of our attack. He has two halves with great running games who refuse to use them and dreadful kicking games. Someone needs to keep the defence guessing and that seems to be his mandate.

But no one else is on the same page Stryker , and that's the biggest issue and has been an issue for a while

How many times in his career , do you see him put a grubber that not one of our players reacts to because they had no idea that was even an option

Robbie runs far too much now and he has no clear intent , half the time he plays for penalties that he hasn't got for years now

Mate nothing personal , but you still have your 2011 sunnies on

When it comes to the names of the people to blame for our recent run of form he is down the list I don't care what you say. He is having a go and trying to win games.

I want to know why our handling is so poor. Why do we drop so much ball? Why are so many passes missing their mark? Someone commented on the Fox coverage today that he watched us in the captains run and said we were terrible in this regard. It's not just game time. They must be aweful at training as well. Why? It doesn't make sense. They have played together long enough to understand each others games yet continually stuff up their running lines or put down balls that hit them on the chest….Bizarre.

To answer your 2nd question , too many players playing what they see , who don't understand how to exploit what they see

But I want to give you an example of what I mean Stryker

I reckon if Robbie gets in Teddy's ear and says . "mate sit in my back pocket , I'm gonna go from dummy half " I reckon Tedesco would have a brown nose , agree ??

The team obviously has no idea when he is going to run , and with his speed down (even slightly ) he isn't going to get into the back field like the old days is he ??

I reckon he could still be a force from dummy half , but for some reason this sides communication looks like a deaf mute convention and no one has a clue what the bloke inside or outside is doing ( please I'm not having a shot at any deaf / mutes , just making a point )

The first person who should be sacked first thing Monday morning is the one in charge of junior talent identification, closely followed by those responsible for retention, both persons have shown ineptitude in their job, in most cases the rare good ones we get we have been let go and the good ones identified and kept , are mostly myths ,meanwhile the fans have another lean winter

 

[Newtown]

Robbie and Benji are yesterday's heroes,

 

[Russell]

I don't get the hate towards Robbie. He was good out there apart from playing for penalties when he should just pass or run it.

Saying Robbie played well is just spin.

He really needs pep pills to deliver quick balls from dummy half to take pressure off the halves.

AND we will never do any good whilst he tries to become the play maker inside the oppositions 20 metres. It jars the attack and is not fair to Moses and Brooks. Their reputations are on the line and he is undermining them.

This has nothing to do with Brooks tackling, throwing bad passes etc. This is about you saying Robbie had a good game. It is a team game and each must play their part, once players play for themselves it is all over red rover.

 

[Russell]

Robbie Farah stiffles play once again.
No spark out of dummy half. Brooks getting the ball with defenders just 3 metres away.

I'm not sure if others see it but Robbie really slows our attack down.

could not agree more.. Farah is killing our young half. he is getting the ball way too late.. we have not won a game since farah has been back and our attack his dropped significantly. I think Farah is a hog. I have watched these two carefully they cannot work together one has to go…

Don't know what you are on about, half the time our two young heroes aren't anywhere near where they should be , and I'm sure if they call it they get it, ever think that he may have been told to run it, actually he was one of the few who did run it and provide the chance for anyone else when he did.
Watch for the difference in May/ June when he has some genuine first graders around him.
I feel sorry for Tedesco and him. To have to front up to this badly Coached team with our over rated imposters each week . And the Nrls most useless Coach, must be mind numbing, and it's about Woods started playing to his reputation

Poppycock.

LOL well you backed Taylor all last year like a rutting school girl so it doesnt surprise to see you attack his 'nemesis'.
Take the blinkers off and have a good look at the game. He isnt undermining them like you suggest at all. He see's their incompetance and acts accordingly. They are great in open field and thats when he actively looks for them but in heavy traffic he takes it upon himself because he knows that 9 times out of 10 theyll take the wrong option or throw a miracle ball that gets dropped. He makes mistakes too but his so far are not as costly as theirs are. You have far too much faith in these boys. They are years away from controlling a game.

Yeah and you still made up a blatant lie about Farah earlier. Doesnt matter though, your cheersquad will always be there to give you rep points for the crap you go on with.

Here is a quote from a "rutting School girl" ( whatever they are ) - They don't get a chance to take the wrong option now he is back - he just hogs the ball and pretends he is still a superstar. It's ok, you keep your rose coloured glasses on though (is that why you chose the avatar) and pretend he is doing something other than a fair amount of tackling. That amounts to undermining in my book.

I will also continue to defend JT, like I did with Potter. It probably doesn't mean anything to you, just like most on here but JT and Wests Tigers signed a contract for him to be the coach for 3 years (that is until the end of 2017). Are the Tigers honorable, we will see in due course.
