Get Miller back...

I said in game day thread too, loan him back

 

[Thresher]

Shame we can't utilise any of the NRLW squad

 

[Wilson]

Iro to fullback surely

Iro to fullback surely

I don’t think this is happening but at least covers for his defensive issues

Probably not but should be our option

 

[Sparkles]

Iro to fullback surely

Your strongest squad would probably be Hynes to FB (it's good enough for Munster when needed), Moylan to 6 and tricky to 7

How can it be the strongest squad when Moylan is in it?

Get Miller back...

Atkinson could work actually. I didn't realise he was 22. late bloomer. Been through the storm system and played a season of QLD cup and now NSW cup.

It cant be any worse

 

[CHOGM]

Fitz reckons Tracey plays fullback next week. So what happens on the left? Talakai back to centre? Maybe wade being there will help. We'll certainly miss Will in attack. We could actually struggle for points for the rest of the year.

It hasn't exactly been looking stronger without him in it. Could another bloke from Reggie's post better? Possibly.

Tracey to FB, Ronnie to wing, Talakai to centre.

I haven't been online here for a few weeks I'll admit, anyway, how embarrassing are we as a club atm. There must be something going on at the back of the club.

Yes we have a few injuries, however so does every other club, a lot of clubs still tend to go well despite their injuries. Anyway, I'm always going to be a huge Cronulla fan till the day I give up (never) but what has happened last few weeks? It has been absolutely disgraceful.

 

[Sharkie556]

Atkinson should be our next fullback since dykes is injured, he played very well at fullback for us during the trial against knights

 

[Wiz]

We gifted them that game, littered with penalties, stupid moments that cost us and a lot of errors - we actually had very good defence as a unit but we lost that game because of ourselves



-1st good ball set of the first half Brailey gets called for a forward pass
-1st try purely will Kennedy’s mistake
-2nd try off a Nikora knock on on our 20 m line —Rudolph knock on in our half
-Nikora another knock on our 20


3/7 sets halfway through the first half



-Yeo try purely off Hynes mistake
-In the second good ball set of the first half Brailey makes a shocking decision to go to Tracey who puts in a terrible kick on the last instead of going to Tricky and Hynes who were both on the other side waiting for the ball which then leads to Ramien letting that 40/20 slide through
-T’o try next set
-Wade Graham gives away 3 penalties in the first half



2nd half

-First good ball set 2nd half Hunt knocks on the 3rd tackle
-2nd good ball set McInnes knocks on 3rd tackle
-McInnes high tackle, Penrith try from a kick after the penalty
-Another Penalty , Uele high tackle
-Another penalty Wade Graham high tackle
-3rd good ball set Ramien knock on 2nd tackle
-4th good ball set Rudolph knock on the 3rd

Disgusting

Our forwards aren’t good enough to change momentum and Hynes kicking isn’t good enough to make it harder for the other team to build momentum - why we continue to persist with him being our main kicker when Trindall is right there is stupid

 

[Capital_Shark]

100%

Thurston wouldn’t be doing mid field grubbers on the 4th.
Chips over the top on the 3rd.

Love the guy.
But man. Hynes can’t throw it down.

Yeah that was rubbish. I don't care what the score is. Try those grubbers in good ball on last play instead of an all or nothing shift we haven't earned the right to.

 

[Capital_Shark]

3 errors is bad…
He tried, I’ll agree with that, but dropped too much footy and watched a 40/20 roll through

Watched it as he dived & tried to stop it. Not like he didn't try. He is a right centre who was reshuffled to left wing as well so covering 40/20s from his right isn't something he's done much of. The Chin can make seasoned wingers look silly, good job getting a hand to it I reckon.

 

[Walley_01]

How can it be the strongest squad when Moylan is in it?

Cos we score points with him in it?

Fitz reckons Tracey plays fullback next week. So what happens on the left? Talakai back to centre? Maybe wade being there will help. We'll certainly miss Will in attack. We could actually struggle for points for the rest of the year.

so he can pass the ball in the in goal again

Just watched kayo mini only went for 18 minutes (good result).. under strength down on confidence, we are now cannon fodder. Disappointing.

Honestly was anywhere near as hard to watch as the last two weeks. We didn't help ourselves, and we had some more misfortune, but the effort and resolve we'd been asking for was there.
