The way we have played last 3 weeks we don't deserve it.
And we won some games in that streak that had more to do with luck than skill

We played well enough all year that some **** losses doesn't take away our right and fact we are playing semis. We are in such a better position than teams like the merge as long as the coach and players sort things out soon

If you were flanno how would you fix it? I'm at a loss as to why we are getting outclassed the last few weeks but what has changed..

So we get pumped by those mugs on a 5 game losing streak, we have injuries to our captain and Feki.

Next is Rabbits away, 5 day turn around for the Roosters, then Melbourne away.

We could really be in a bit of trouble here.

Yep. Opposition the last three weeks have simply numbered up and rushed up on the out the back man, which is usually Barba. When are we going to wake up? Defence leaked badly tonight... Go sharks.

I think our 2nd row/prop hybrid bench is the biggest issue. Very agile but probably dont absorb as much in defence and allow an extra few metres. We also arent wrapping up the ball and teams r offloading at will. Then theres a pile of missed tackles also

I agree with this, if we are playing a bigger pack we should be kicking long turning them around, spreading the ball out wide. Instead we took them head on in the middle. That combined with a heap of offloads and way to many missed tackles.

We had that left centre rush in every time but didn't change our ways on the fly, we should of thrown a cutout and burnt him on the outside.

It won't matter what we've done this year if we continue to fish up this garbage leading into the finals..

Throw in big forwards result is still a loss, coach needs to address our overall defensive structure ( out wide especially) and teams rushing up on us when we have ball

Whatever mate. We just lost to a team that hasn't won in 5 weeks and hasn't scored more than 18 points all year.
Live in your fantasy world if you like . You can't sugar coat the shot we have been dishing out for weeks now

Wheels are off .. someone grab the rattle gun

Not the first team to stumble in the lead up. Let's hold off our judgement until the finals

Agree was piss poor, but let's take a few deep breaths calling for fifs to be dropped or gal out for under performing are plan wrong... Good teams overcome adversity and that is what we now facing so let's take stock and roll on. Minor premership now seems out of reach that's ok I'll live with that and cheer the storm Monday night to keep our breathing room over raiders.
