Legit looked like the players just gave up. Surely you can’t consistently take the wrong option, not look to wrap up the ball in tackles etc.

Napa legit submitted into a tackle with a player a meter in front of him and yet to touch him.

Reimis Smith plays like he literally doesn’t give a damn.

The only guys who seemed to try were RFM, Toomaga, Ogden, Foran and Thommo.

There’s no way a side can be that lackadaisical and give a damn at the same time.

Rough.
This crap is pure torture.

I guarantee if you gave them each a $1,000,000 bonus to win last night by at least 20 they would win by 20+

I dont think they are tanking. Just useless is all. Most of them are playing above their grade

The last couple of weeks I said we are just shit but after last night I agree with you they cannot be that bad I was watching with a few mates last night who support other teams and they were pissing themselves laughing at some of the shit. We are a disgrace

It literally looks like we fight until the opposition is two scores ahead then we just give up.

Last night they just weren’t in it. They played like a team that doesn’t give a damn.

In League there is no benefit to tank, unless you want the coach gone or are betting on yourself to lose.

But maybe the play like they don't care because the moral is down. Sort out who coach will be and any player who doesn't want to play can leave

They may not be tanking but they definately aren't playing for the coach...

Or they are playing to his style and it’s his style that is pure shithouse?
