Very few positives in that I will say Blore again showed the ability to hit and stick.

As for the negatives:

• There is a reason that Walters has not played much NRL, he is not up to it
• Garner’s defence is not up to first grade standard
• Mikaele has gone backwards. He is plodding this year.
• Mbye adds little
• Soft underbelly still there

Yep hard to disagree champ

Beyond the horizon in every facet

Packer out was a bigger loss than I thought

I still have faith but this year was never our year when Covid turned our best draw in the NRL into the hardest bar none. Madge has been playing for 2021 all year.

Yeah what has happened to Mikaele
Lacks energy that’s for sure.
Mbye has to go,adds almost nothing.

Mikaele has always been average. Hopefully he misses out for Packer next week.

A massive drain on our cap

After tonight I would be pulling the pin on Benji’s career as well

Disagree. He was one of our best forwards tonight and regularly dented the line.

Weve played one out footy for most of the year…minimises mistakes but limits our scoring potential
Works best if youve got 4 Burgess brothers breaking thru the defence…but were not that team
Poor tactics,abysmal goalkicking…and some blokes who just dont deserve to be there…starting with walters who i doubt will ever see NRL again
Very disappointing

I have been saying that for 2 years.He is a club legend and one of our best players of all time but you cant beat age
