Definitely agreeYeah, maybe. What I meant was that keeping those 3 guys all under 25 and Rudolf under 40 is a positive.
Thought Tolman was impressive

bad take the ramien won, we all **** the bedCan we find a new right centre?
Have to admit our left centre wasn’t great either.
I only saw the first half and listened to the second on the radio.
Glad that we came back but should have put the game away. Thought we’d taken the field goal too early but I think we could have held out if not for Ramien.
I haven’t seen the incident but by all accounts he did a dumb thing, gifting them the ball.
Lots of improvement needed and hopefully we can improve. Defence was pretty good considering the amount of ball they had. Need to cut out the silly errors.
Onwards to next week against the Eels, another very tough one.
Yeah, this was a bit too much 2021 Sharks... I don't think it'll be missed by Fitz though.also, you can see jack wighton running short side and no one from the middle ran across until it was too late
We were behind all game. Finally we get ahead with not long to go. We have a great set from their restart and bomb to what should have been them hemmed down their end with 5 mins to go.bad take the ramien won, we all **** the bed
the raiders hadnt made more than 40m a set in the second half so had we aimed up, they are taking a long range field goal
we allowed 3 offloads in the set, unacceptable

We all **** the bed, that's the extent of your'criticism'.if heads drop because of that, pro sport isnt for them

Poor is being very generous, was a horrible miss.I'd also like to have seen a better effort from Kennedy on Young. Pretty poor miss really.
Very rarely do we see Kennedy win that - happens oftenPoor is being very generous, was a horrible miss.
True. Still a bit grabby and less tackley in those close to the line situationsVery rarely do we see Kennedy win that - happens often
Dive in with a hand out and a knee cockedTrue. Still a bit grabby and less tackley in those close to the line situations
That Russell tackle wasn't even put on report, was it?Dive in with a hand out and a knee cocked
No, I'm fine with that too, although it's close.That Russell tackle wasn't even put on report, was it?
It's funny, I don't think he should be charged but I'd also be fine with an 8 point try.campbell lead with the knees and it should have been an 8 point try for that and the high contact but i am glad he wasnt charged
During which periods of the game did you find we looked unfit and/or lazy?Watching the game and just a few things I think the coach needs to look at:
- we look unfit and/or lazy. We don’t put pressure on their kicker. Players walking around. No line speed.
- we don’t have a game plan. Maybe this is having a new half combination but it just looks like they’re making up as they go. For example, Moylan getting the ball, looks around for someone to give it to, everyone is standing looking at him, so Moylan takes a hit up. Need to workout how to get Kennedy the ball.
- last tackle options. They didn’t have any apart from give it to Hynes and just kick it
- Nikora needs to get more involved. 6 runs for 39 metres compared to Wilton with 13 runs for 104 metres. If the ball isn’t coming to him, he has to go to the ball. He can’t just wait for a pass into a hole like he did with SJ.
- left side defense needs work
- need to workout who the 7 is
- with Brailey running from hooker, he needs people running with him, Kennedy
- Kennedy needs to work on his defense and positional awareness
These are just a few things I think the coach needs to look into, I’m not having a go at anyone
They looked tired from pretty early in the game mate, standing around with hands on hips.During which periods of the game did you find we looked unfit and/or lazy?
Last tackle options and some other combinations did look very rusty. Like, I would say even more sloppy than I'd expect from round 1 with a halves pairings first time together.
I do think Nikora maybe could have found another couple runs if he really wanted but like Burgess said, he has a channel he is supposed to stay in/near and we did play more towards Teig quite often.
Yes our side with Ikuvalu (likely injury replacement, 0 games for us, 38 overall), Ronnie (0 NRL games at centre, 40 overall), Wilton (injury replacement, 21 games) and Moylan (did not trial) was messy defensively.
I don't disagree, but as per my notes I am not overly surprised.
I'd hope they would improve quite quickly, even if that means a reshuffle to Ronnie wing Tracey centre. Right side had the usual Nikora, Ramien, Katoa combo you'd hope have good reads on each other by now.
Agree we need to be more awake to Blayke. Think McInnes is someone who can contribute to that well but also Kennedy and Hynes.
