Btw guys I thought Xerri looked real heavy footed again. Not sure if it's down to match fitness but he doesn't look remotely close to what he was in terms of agility and acceleration.
Same shit different threadWeird just saying negative stuff about everything, its a trial fellas, which we s have lost by 50 last year. have a day off
Unfortunately some posters have issues that run far deeper than a game of footy.im all for constructive feedback however when you have a team that’s finally played for the first time in a live game and you have a squad on the other side with much more experience. What do you expect?
We done well. Yes, there should’ve been a bit more attacking side of things, however, don’t forget that it was pleasing to see a defence be much better than last year with how poorly we were in leaking points.
I said several times I liked our Intent and intensity in defence Kikau was destroying bodies. We also didn’t drop our heads after that easy try the Sharks got , I liked Currans performance, Critta will obviously be amazing for us. We will get naturally better once we play a few games and the team is settled.I know what you’re saying it was definitely rusty but if we lost by 30, what positives can we take out of it?
alright we figured out the negatives, as a club/fan/coach/critic. You need to show positives, what do you think was good that you saw tonight compared to last year ?
But we did get battered most timesWe didn’t lose by 50 last year though
Don’t forget it was 38 degrees.Btw guys I thought Xerri looked real heavy footed again. Not sure if it's down to match fitness but he doesn't look remotely close to what he was in terms of agility and acceleration.
He wont start round 1. Kiraz will play centre with Wilson outside him.Btw guys I thought Xerri looked real heavy footed again. Not sure if it's down to match fitness but he doesn't look remotely close to what he was in terms of agility and acceleration.

I’ve seen your descent into being fairly spiteful this past offseason and early trial season. You weren’t like this in July of last year.Don't believe his fluff mate, those two are thick as thieves when it comes to "mantra be negatory just because"
That was the temp at 3pm not 8pm.Don’t forget it was 38 degrees.
Tbh I’m shocked he’s looked this good after 4 years. I was expecting multiple knock ons and for him to just get physically dominated. He’ll be dangerous with more match fitnessBtw guys I thought Xerri looked real heavy footed again.

I wouldn’t mind kiraz and skeleton on one side, big meters coming out of our 20He wont start round 1. Kiraz will play centre with Wilson outside him.
you havent been reading then have you, literally said our attack needs work but defensively that was so much better. Attack will come eventually, defence has been our issue for yearsI sometimes say that in a game thread out of frustration when we drop the ball 13 times in a game but the other half are genuine points. I’m yet to see you give any real reasons why we should be positive about this performance and season except that you hope we get better after a few games.

What was the temperature at 8?That was the temp at 3pm not 8pm.
Spot on ladtell you what I’m gonna start banning people who complain like kids.
It was their FIRST game together, what the hell do you expect? We knew that our side had a lot of orthodox players playing some positions. I’m glad we lost by two SUPER SUPER soft tries. Grow up
we look better than last year. MIND you all Cronulla still had more than half their side playing and we changed our team to New South Wales cup players.
so if you look at that that has to be a great result for our club. I don’t know what you guys are watching, but Cronulla had still most of their players on the field.
Tbh every year the team sheet improves and performances like that are produced the more depressing it is. Losing by 50 when Pay was coach with that squad will not be as brutal and painful as it will be this year if it happens.Exactly.
Clearly more work to be done, errors have to be eradicated/reduced by half and combos need to improve etc.
But that was not that bad..some doomsayers just can't get out of their own shithouse mindset.
Taaffe has shown enough,that Tracey should get a crackConnor Tracey or Blake Taaffe for 1?
