Well at least there’s a few people on here that actually see it for what it is. Very well said
@Suave ! I noticed
@Menteek and a few others also having a reasonable opinion.
I didn’t visit much today because it’s a shitshow and just negative toxicity lately. It’s honestly a massive bummer and life is too short to bother.
Didn’t check in til after full time and can’t believe I still see the same old braindead takes like Burton is shit. How anyone watched that game and can single him out is beyond me. He did heaps of good things and both him and Reed definitely looked freed up without the burden of captaincy. Hutch was meh, did a few good things but not enough and Sexton wasn’t given enough time to really make a difference.
At the end of the day it was a fkn trial and people carrying on like it’s representative of how we’ll go in the season proper just look like idiots. Oh yeah let’s judge a game where players were coming and going, our new captain and best player only played 25 minutes and the spine and other combinations changed numerous times. Yep, sound logic folks!
One thing I have taken from both trials, and the most important thing is how committed every player is feom go to woah. Huge difference to last year and I’ve been impressed with most forwards. Salmon clearly is far better in the middle at lock, as he was average when he played the edge later and to me, the biggest problem is finding a spot for everyone. Specifically Mann, Salmon and Curran. Hard to pick who to leave out. I thought all showed good signs.
I can’t see this joint becoming worthwhile with the constant negativity, but at least there’s still a few reasonable posters.
