Really dissapointed into today's performance by the boys.

We pretty much saved up our worst for last. We looked lost as soon as the Knights got ontop. We played comeback-style football after the 20min mark and allowed the Knights to just grind their way to the end.

I've never seen us play so badly in such an important game. We have been an embaressment to the competition - that we were able to finish 6th, while more deserving sides missed out.

I really thought that playing last this week would've showed the boys what was required to win finals footy.

I've sort of just typed everything what was going through my head... I'm shattered at the moment and am at a loss of words to be honest.

ad i bet a lot of you were confident... i knew we would lose but i had faith we'd pull our fingers out... but i'm no stranger to disappointment so i'm good.

Des playing Barba was not a good idea... I've got nothing good to say about this performance because it was straight out embarrassing so i'll keep it to my self... the only ones who looked like they gave a shiit were Jackson and Reynolds..

see you all next season... hopefully with Hayne in our ranks

CUBAI!

bring on the EPL and cmon gunners! <3

You type well for a shattered man Raysie. They were plain S H I T there is a lot work to be done in the off season. The whole team had mad monday on their minds or end of season trip. Attack and line speed in D needs a lot of work.

I am disappointed to mate, but we deserved our spot in the finals, ultimately we were just not old enough, and we pay des the big $$$ to work out a game plan to improve next ye, without the rubbish from barba and with a good off season and a new game plan I am sure we will rise again next year, well that is what I tell myself to get through the long off season

I just dont understand what's wrong, so much for hoping we were 'under the radar'. Put simply, we're just shit this year. The game against Manly gave me some hope that we were saving the best for the finals but how wrong was I. This year has been nothing but a total distraction.

Anyways, thanks for the memories Ben. We started the season without you and finished it with out you. Good luck at the Broncos.

What a crap day barba should have never played today. Inu should have been there our kicks especially for drop outs and restart were complete shit.

To add insult to today loss they fcuk my multi and $6000 all they needed to do is win.

If we keep the same line-up for 2014, we're gone already. Keeping the same team tells them that what we did this year was OK by the Dogs.

I'm sorry, but I have to say that Ennis is more liability than asset. Same goes for Williams.

Buying another superstar in Hayne - especially one who is injury prone - is no answer to our woes.

I need to see something positive in the off season to justify spending hundreds of dollars on another membership year.

we have all sorts of problems and part of it is our coaching.

I'm still confused about the whole 2013 season to be honest.

I really do like Hasler, but 2 things have annoyed me this year and it's been an issue since Round 1:

1. Since the first set this year, we knew straight away we were going to do the exact same set plays we did last year. Opposing sides planned for it... but didn't actually think we'd implement the exact same plays right up to week of the finals.

2. Our defense between Reynolds, Inu/Lafai and Perrett have been below first grade standard since Round 1. Yet Hasler didn't do a thing to change it, and as a result became worse and worse as the season went on.

The 2 above points have been ignored by coaching staff all season and blamed on defense on the edges being harder than it looks and that we've had suspensions and injury all year.

Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

COuldnt agree more, it was the worst game of the year. The most important and we dished that up. Man it was a odd year, deep down, we didnt deserve to go on, it was a fitting result to a flat year. Too many off field dramas. We never really clicked, still I thought we'd put up some resistance in this game. Shattered.

Disappointed but not surprised seamed like a fitting end to the season
To many teams playing much better footy all year, 6 th spot was about the right place you just don't win from that far back.

Absolute rubbish. Seemed like they gave up. Embarrassing to watch. Glad the seasons over and now they can review and fix our woes from this year.

Those last 20min there.... I've seen the Eels play with more gritt then that.

I actually felt sad for them that they'd given up so easily. I've never seen us do it before today.
