It's funny how it doesn't take long for most of you to return to spinning fluff. For the most part we have been very poor with sporadic moments of good play. Mostly due to 20 minutes of Carney and 30 minutes of DeGois. We can't afford to lose this Monday. No if's or but's. If we lose then you can kiss finals goodbye. We can't be dropping home games. And don't give me that **** about the warriors losing their first 3 last year, we aint the warriors.
After two rounds...

After last week it will be dismal.
hardly. with 26 rounds or whatever it is, you could lose all the games in march and still make the finals. you could probably even lose the first 8 and win the rest!
sure some teams aren't teething in March, they're winning, most likely on the back of important player combos that were established last season or before (Slater/Smith for example). we're running a new halves combo and new hooker. we've shown signs of an attack unlike what we've shown in the last few seasons but just because we haven't seen success on the ladder just yet because the team is still coming together as a unit. doesn't mean our season is ****ed. we've bought well and have some good players on the field.
we're two games in for ****s sake.

my fing god. lose 3 games and our season is over.
if every team in the top 8 wins and we lose we are 2 games behind with another 22 games remaining.
some people have to stress less, esp when you read our team sheet. on paper we can beat any team.
its a long season ahead boys just have faith for god sakes and stop bagging every player and the coach.

I agree though, I don't think we can make the 8 after 3 straight losses to start the year.

Its amazing how people say the club needs a winning culture and then are willing to say the season is over after 4 rounds. A winning culture is established by never giving in!

You dont need a winning culture to win, you need to win to get a winning culture. Think about it.

Typical cant handle a loss attitude, That stat is the main 1. But if you can't pluck any positive factors out of the stats of most line breaks, tackle breaks, off loads or whatever, then you really have no idea. We lost a game against tigers, the premiership favourites, by 1 point, a game that rightly so, we probably should have won, and the Knights game we were all over them like a lamp shade, but just couldnt finish our hard work. If you cant find positive points from our first 2 losses, you need to start watching another sport

**** me how long can you keep going on about ifs and buts and we would of won if this would of happen or that would of happen. It's just not good enough

Your missing the point champ.
We lost, thats done, but forgetting the loss, look at the good things we are doing on the field, things that we werent doing in previous years........
We had no attack for the last **** knows how long, all of a sudden we are making breaks and breaking out of tackles, and really working up the defence.......That is what we need to do in order to create try scoring opportunities. Bit of ball security and we win alot of games. It would be awesome to win more than 50% for once.

stop looking backwards, granted we out statted some teams, also out statted them in errors...
all im saying and i will leave it at this as some of you wont ever listen anyway is that if we go 0-4 we will not make the 8.

Ridiculous to say that.How many teams make a late run for the finals - Roosters, Raiders, Rabbits, Warriors come to mind.
We have alot of new combos, they take time to gel.
