That game was so bad..

Side to side, predictable block plays constantly, so structured.

That was embarrassing, which genius thought we needed to fool the Bulldogs with set plays instead of just running hard and playing eyes up.

Fking yuck

In all seriousness who is our forward pack leader, one that opposition halves have to keep an eye out for. That leads line speed, kick chase. Leads from the front with action.

Toby tries but still very raw, was good to see Talakai come back. But he is gone for a few

We have been blessed over the years with Guys like Lewis Fifita Gal.

Hannay has only had the reins for a minute. They are still playing as Bomber coached.

Boring attack and no concern for defence.

We put the ball on or near the tryline like 10 times, being boring in attack was a long way from our issue there.
And that was one of our better defensive efforts

Big changes need to happen next week. I don’t care if we lose but some of these players need to **** off to reserve grade

Didn't say we did good did I, just said your points weren't the biggest issue

How?
Probably more due to effort (especially start), lack of patience (going wide too often, not boring enough), and god awful completion.

Don't mind it but think we'll be missing Talakai for a week or two. How long til we get Katoa back?

last update was round 8-10 so could be next week, could be a few weeks.

Could give Royce a run next week if Talakai suspened, he's meant to be back

What is with our lack of line speed in defence?? We jog up 2 steps, then stop n retreat backwards...all the time!! Surely Fitz will fix this immediately. You know your defence is S*** when the Dogs r making metres

Overall... Bad. We've reverted to the year one Bomber side I think we'd all thought was exorcised. Except Tracey. What a legend.

Where’s the next win coming from I honestly can’t see a game in the next 6 weeks that is even remotely winnable.

thank god we have a bye coming up. Will get us to 6 points at least.

I really hope Fitz watched this game & keeps the recording, it should help immensely with some retention decisions

If we commit to only re-sign guys if they can string a couple good games together we should make it through the season without retaining too many based on that effort
