Our efforts under the high ball in the past few weeks and especially tonight are absolutely PATHEIC ! Teams love bombing us cause they know that our soft cocks won't challenge. We just stand back and either let it bounce, or give the opposition a free crack..................................****ING PATHETIC !!!!!!!!!!!!!

If Dymock isnt in their ears every training session making them jump for the bomb something is wrong.

Make an attempt and even if you drop it, its a learning experience.

It's okay guys, at least we can watch our NSW Cup side win 50-0 each week where they can at least catch a ball. Who can blame them for being so good when the like of Morris, Goodwin and Lett are in the team. Lett wasn't the greatest player under the high ball, but **** at least he tried.

If Morris and Goodwin aren't somehow in the side next week, then Dymock should get the sack and actually give it to a coach that can actually see we can't ****ing catch a high ball if it was to save our life.

Calling them pathetic is being a bit kind isn't it?

This was the only game I've seen when there wasn't one attempt to take a high ball. Barba put in his usual no show with a couple but the Roosters bomb aimers sent most of it down Wright's wing. Even as the bombs were going up Barba and Wright were waving a white flag. Dymock has to select blokes at the back who will at least have a go.

We lost this game because of our inability to contest and catch the ball in the air. I think 4 tries were scored off kicks.

Precisely. I'm not saying Barba can't catch the high balls it is the whole sides organisational skills when the ball goes up. More urgency is needed by the players around the ball taker and one the person has to call for the ball and attempt to catch it.

This thread make sense, unlike most of the other threads that blame the refs for every mistake that we make.

We looks silly for letting go of Utai now. His only weakness was he couldn't catch a high ball but if we aren't even going to contest them he would've been a perfect fit for this team. NOT ONCE did our wingers contest the ball. Very amateur.
