Api and Douehi only ones that move the needle
Makasini was built up as next GI Folau clone but done shit since his trial v Penny
Kikau and Kiraz is our excuse lol
Our ruck speed and delivery from dummy half is killing our attack
Easy to blame the halves but they are working off the worst ruck in the league as well
Did Ciro really say we need the fans next week cos we have given you a lot to cheer about last two years
FML
All I heard was excuses in his presser ( no ball to start the game ) but we are working really hard at training
From what I took is that he’s rolling out the same team next week
Salmon service at d half last week was better than Bailey (that’s not saying much ) but just saying lol
The boys looked like a happy bunch at captain run w Critta caps on …maybe the honesty beer session and Chinese food helped ? lol
If Metcalfe were to come and play 7
I wouldn’t be opposed to having Woods play 1 when his hamstrings are fixed and bring him into grade the same way Mitchell Moses came through at the Tigers IIRC …less pressure then eventually ends up in the halves
Just on the comments regarding Burton
He’s the last survivor of the previous regime I believe and said this previously that he is being carefully managed out.
He has had all his major responsibilities taken off him
1. Goal kicking
2. General kicking
3. 20% of good ball footy (ie no plays drawn...
He’s actually gone backwards (not his fault ) but didn’t Dragons gave him playing Cup and earmarked as starter this year in NRL which is why Flanno was fkd off he left
Now he can’t even get a run with Cup
Wahs see Boyd as their guy they just re signed him into 29!
Metcalfe surplus so if they can offload his contract and get CHt locked in for a year then they still have change to go after another decent player (combined with Barnett money )
Metcalfe wasn’t named in any of the Wahs squads today
It’s changed the game for the worse now we see Rugby Union or AFL scorelines
Vlandy doesn’t give a fk all he cares about is money from gambling partners and tv deals
The slim pickings we have at the moment is go with this backline for next game
1. Critta (if he got the same touches as Tracey I’m sure he would be more damaging on the sweep play).
2. Rinikama
3. Tuala (not going to let you down anywhere let alone his favoured position)
4. Burton (pretend...
Yeah not this soon sad stories !
I’m walking around Osaka in my dogs jersey bewildered lol but I’ll never go support another team then come running back when we are winning like a lot people I know
88 till the end date !
I seen some comments online defending Tracey “if edges don’t let in line breaks then he doesn’t got to tackle “
Must be kids or new to the sport
FB make a living off cover tackles it’s their job description literally called “the last line of defence “ for a reason FFS
Tracey is in the Gutho...
I think it was Lara that specifically asked a question about Tracey and Ciro didn’t back him just @said needs to fix things at training “ which similar line when he dropped Xerri
Maybe move him to wing
Putt Critta or Dykes at FB
We will start winning once Ciro and Gus sort out whatever shit is happening behind the scenes
Whatever issues are there need to be sorted immediately
1995 go get on the beers type therapy
When the ref was pumping us from minute 34 I thought to myself every team gets momentum back in second half
He waited till we were buried and the spade was packed away to give us two penalties 78 min and bins them w 38 seconds left
