I have on question. If you are exhausted and spent - because you pushed and pushed with wrestling - the last several players are pretty much falling on a player absolutely spent with nothing left. You can't wrestle someone who has submitted and has no resistance. So it is very confusing to me...

Whether you like it or not, Touma was wrong with what he did and accountability is going to be a bitch for the Club. 4 Million is a joke, they are hustling and will probably walk away with 500K - 1M max.

Hutcho's so slow jokes! Hutcho's so slow, when he steps anywhere, they lay witches hats and apply for a permit and wait for its approval, before he is allowed to engage the move. Hutcho's so slow, his nanna can bake jam and cream scones and serve 'em up to the entire Dogs backline before he...

A point well made on social media - how did the Knights win the penalty and six again count when they were on the back foot for almost the entire 80 mins? "They managed to stay disciplined enough to win the penalties/six agains 11 to 3. What a joke."

I feel sorry for the guy - he appears like he is trying really hard to take himself seriously and falling short every time. I think the 1 match ban is good enough given he is more of a silly clown than a genuine threat in his behaviour. Mahoney cracked me up with how spooked he was by the...

GUS took our DNA and spread it to other Clubs and finally came back because we damn well lost it with idiots leading our Club for over a decade. Now hopefully he is putting that DNA back in for good. We have to protect it and screen new leadership to ensure they are properly evaluated and then...

I have also noticed a very powerful tackling technique lead by Mahoney but executed by many players. They attack the legs low with the shoulder, but with incredible speed and force, that drops the attacking player to the ground very quickly. Then very consistently, there is a defender over the...

sadly, yes - it has been almost 10 years of bog average and below for us.

Was Hetherington in the side that lost 66 nil and now loses again on the other side? Just trying to figure out the trigger for the mental instability lol

Just saw Hutch is 4th in missed tackles in the comp this year on 27!

my favourite part of the team - it gives me the most confidence with regard to our future.

Why would a coach leave Ponga on at 30% - total liability - obviously because they knew we would win and they were hoping for the best.

I think he can do with more minutes - but he keeps getting better for sure!

The difference when Taffe is in for Hutch was a long range try with him handling the ball twice in the play. CC woulld have noticed that :)

Xerri has to pass more to Fox

What bullshit was that for the last 5 mins of the game?

Fox should have stepped back in or launched.

They need to pass to Hayward when he runs into gaps at speed

That try was sponsored by Ponga’s injury and the Knights dumb coach

Fox milked that

They are so desperate as a one man team - they have a hobbling Ponga still out there.

We may well score more on the right given all their attention is on blocking our left in the 2nd half.

Our completion rate is not good enough. We are so dominant, we are keeping them in the game with our errors once again. These errors need to be cut out of our game. A mix of poor discipline with the ball, skill issue and some bad luck.

You know a ref is a bitch when he is 100% comfortable giving six again on the last, twice, in the space of 10 mins. Ruthless prick.

Is it six again against us 4 times with 2 on the 5th tackle, seriously? We had many situations where we could have got a six again and nothing!

Oh yeah!!!!

What a relief to capitalise on their error so quickly!

Hutch on report fir a trip - might be good news lol

I spoke too soon - 2 dumb errors and 6 again on the last - bloody hell!

Great for our right side confidence!!!

Come on boys - 63 more minutes of this!

Please don’t invite them in with dumb errors

Or 67-0

Yes, we have to appreciate that there maybe a bit of wobble, but there are too many senior players in the team now that are used to setting the high standard. So our standards have been reset successful and our momentum appears to be protecting that standard. There will be wobble, bad days, ref...

Indeed it is a momentum game. Given our defense has reached this level and the attack is improving, this momentum has begun. The fact we are so fit and can maintain that level of defence for most of the game, means as you mention, our attack clicks to another level and suddenly, we do not get...

This makes sense given the skills he showed were 7 skills where his kicks were perfectly placed under pressure too.

What was annoying me about Taffe is how much he was getting dominated in tackles when trying to run it out to start the sets. Tracey's intensity was high, consistent and enjoyable to watch! The safe hands is a big plus too even though Taffe had improved dramatically in the last couple of games...

Let's all pitch in for a limo to send him off in style.

oh yeah, of course, the defense, what was I thinking! ;) lol

I wouldn't mind if CC gave Sexton a decent chance at 7 with the current side playing the way they are.

I hope Ponga is humbled into submission by our D.

My prediction is CC is easing Taffe into the no. 7 - you heard it hear first folks lol

That was my thought too - I hope so - and Bailey showed he is very capable and can handle himself defensively out there.

I forgot to mention that his aggression is already on show - the way he ragdolled Sualli into the ground - it shows he already knows what kind of player he wants to be - the alpha of the pack for sure! :grinning:

I make a prediction on Sam Hughes. The guy is fit and strong, but has a lot of match experience needed before he develops the techniques in defense and running to make him consistent and more damaging. I believe he will be slow for another 6-8 weeks, but, when this guy kicks into his groove at...

The man dropped more bras in 7 seconds than an end of clearance sale in a lingerie department store to 5000 women on a mission to please their lovers.

These extreme statements give you no credibility dude lol He went to the right too often in the 20 attacking zone - that was a liability, but his effort errors are huge! And he has been adjusting his angle runs and running more direct and passing with good timing lately. And guess, what? He...

This was not a good game for Critta. Everyone has a bad day at the office.

I agree Taffe to 7 - leave Tracey at No. 1. Our depth is so good - the fact we can fall short like this against Melbourne with so many of our strike players out speak volumes on where we are at. Last year - I hated our footy. This year I am loving it even though we are not getting enough wins...

Yes Mahoney let us down too - he should have been getting the ball out to the left edge that delivered 3 tries FFS.

We played 75 mins to win and the last 5 mins our halves had no game management at all. This is not good for the players to have to put up with.

Vintage bury the game Hutch helps put us to rest.

Why the fuck would Mahoney run with the ball instead of getting out left early? We lost this game with our errors.

and that Burton bullshit bomb did not help at all!

I am so pissed off - we can't give up - we can score to reclaim the lead - let's do this!

Come one guys - game management FFS!

crap - spoke too soon re errors.

remove 8 errors by 80% and this is what happens!

There are those 3 tries in us with probably a couple to go ;)

Burton IQ got boosted with momentum! 50+ points!

How as he on side to do that????

Thank goodness they called that knock on!

Bellamy is freaking out lol

Burton was so good last year from the sideline - he needs to practice again!

It is critical we keep the foot on the pedal for the last 20 mins!

Xerri Xerri Xerri!

Not a dull moment in this game!

Penalty try? 10 in th bin?

Thank you very much! We needed that badly!

I hope we lift and get even better!

That was stupid Hughes! - we had the momentum and now we did this? 10 mins? We are being fucked royally!

This is ridiculous - The Ref is not allowing us to dominate - fuck the Storm!

Paps was cooked - did you notice he was nowhere to be seen in cover - he gave up so early!

And yes Tracey is on fire! And Kiraz has been a machine!

Kicks knew to pass - Zerri timed his pass perfectly!

Now that was sweet as!

No way - that penalty is bullshit - he had no right to play it that quick.

so we now have a breather. And can reset our D.

That was a bad challenge I think :) fingers crossed

Their turn to turn on the errors.

Burton only knows instinct and that instinct is usually useless without momentum. It's a shame he can't lead better but only can pull of clutch plays occasionally when he is on.

They are grinding a win well - it's up to us to stop 8 errors in the second half. Reduce down to 2 would be nice, 0 even. lol

Critta will do better running onto the ball at speed, stepping and passing with momentum after a break in a tackle. This slow steps and kick is not working. He appears like he is on his heels!

Yes - he should have passed it and then he may have been able to follow him for Jac to pass back for him to score. But I am happy with the way Xerri is playing - he is solid in defense and getting better in his runs. He is only going to get better.

We should be coming back into the 2nd half a lot more confident and ready to grind this game into a win. No reasons why we can't do that. We have proven that our defense and go forward without errors means we dominate field position! We showed that for many patches in the first half.

Critta made a couple of better and harder runs - but he has to come out intense and focused on his running game in the 2nd half.

Critta is not confident in his kicks today - they are killing our momentum. And we just have to back our momentum and not push the last pass desperately. We should not be playing like we are behind.

We just murdered that challenge.

We need to target Xavier and give him a big serve of ongoing punishment - its bullshit leting him dominate!

Where was the cover defense - that play took an eternity.

Critta is having a shocker in defense - I hope he snaps out of it.

Burton should have still caught that! I think we need to grind a bit more. Inviting them back into our attacking zone over and over is asking for trouble.

Crichton is not having a good game so far, falling off tackles too easily.

5 errors? We would be 12 up without those errors

Hutch is so off - no feel for what he is going - too in his head.

Tracey is ace!

nope - should have dived from a couple of metres out.

Hutch is passing early - thank goodness!

Turpin has climatised with a great tackle and run now.

That was a better run from Ado
