Coaching is structure and observable game plan. The playing group has bonded together and I think that’s under the leadership of Jackson, Hoppa, DWZ and to an extent, Tolman.

I don’t believe for a minute that any of the players dislike or disrespect Pay. But coaching is much more than just being liked or having players want to try.
Nup, im all for a fair go. You just cant say Pay has everything to do with it when we lose, but he has nothing to do with it when we win. Its wrong

61 minutes for 177m .. 41 tackles 8 missed (he's not used to those minutes, metres or tackles).
Elliott same minutes and 180m ..

He had a Big game, doesn’t normally play that many minutes
177 metres
41 tackles
21 runs
I know he dropped that ball, but not bad
I was at the game and thought he showed some grit tonight. You could hear it at the ground when he was putting hits on in defence but didn’t seem too damaging with the ball. Your comment says it all about his effort.

How many mins he play? Got through a fair bit of work and considering he was the only real prop we had tonight and we come away with the win you are bloody harsh critics.

Yeah he lumbered around a bit and made a few costly mistakes but definitely not wroth dropping.
After taking a few breaths now the games over, he played about as well as can be expected, with him being a lumbering hit man that doesn’t normally play big minutes.

Perhaps in future don’t have him take a run out of defence that close to the line, in case his ham hands let him down again.

Gotta give the guy credit for putting his hand up for that run. That has to be one of the toughest runs in the game.

I just don't agree he's a big minute player. Should be 15 minutes of everything he has each half from the bench.

Yeah this can easily be over looked sometimes. A tackle one hit up starting in your in goal is tough especially at that time in the game. It was unfortunate what happened but we survived.

Yeah and not to mention his ball playing during the game through the middle, he and Elliot really threatened when we had nothing at one stage.

Gritty win by the dogs tonight. Every player gave 100% except Napa who was sloppy and useless.

Dogs’ last two wins don’t appear to come off the back of good coaching, just determination.

But if Napa is in the first grade side next week I’ll be pretty annoyed. The guy’s a deadset paperweight.
When interviewed in the sheds, he made out that it was a nothing event. Disrespect for his teammates.

You’re all morons!!!

He ran for 171m and played for 78mins.... what he did was a huge effort and should be applauded!!! Those calling for him to be sacked should be sacked from this forum!!!

We lost tolman sue and then Chris Smith, Napa was out on his feet by the 78th and had to be subbed by our only sub licha..... smh

He put his hand up and took the run, that’s all that matters

Yeah agree mate I am really looking forward to stimpson in the side CHN was great tonight but he’s got to get more consistency week to week but he’ll get there if we can pick up a decent hooker and a Flegler or Fifita type young bloke off the bench with Ogden happy days for mine

Flegler or a Welch for Tolman would be nice.


Think we have to wait for 2021 bfore we start throwing names like Fafita around.

Yeah Welch is a good call Fifita is overrated for mine but he’d still be a shitload better than Tolman on the fourth
