Either Jack Hethrington or TPJ will be binned & cost his team more than 6 points. Could decide the game.

Okunbur as starting second rower is not what this team needs, better off the bench… Hayze should have given room to Avo and Skelton comes in at centre.. one more bigger body on the bench would have been ideal.

Ciro can only justify his selections with a win, it’s a winnable game. This place will go ape sh!t as usual but I still have trust in the process… I believe they are experimenting with subtle changes, they’re conceding this is not a finals bound year…the sooner this is acknowledged by suffering fans the better.

Didn’t Ciraldo play KO with an injured shoulder? Who the fuck potentially jeopardises an 18 year olds career agaisnt a team were getting spanked by total idiot.
After the Cronulla game CC admitted to starting the game with Oloapu having a crook shoulder - then used it as an excuse for some poor defence. Playing an 18 yo, who didnt have a full pre season, with a crook shoulder is one of those cc judgements that puts serious question marks over his coaching ability. To me that decision, and the press conference comment is up there with the signing of Reynolds as red flags. Hopefully learnt a lot this year.

btw reynolds on the bench in reggies - good investment of top 30 spot n salary cap.

I know CC is at the game’s watching live because they show him in the box. So he watches the game at least once. Do they do video sessions? If so when he analyses where we have been struggling. What changes are made? Even if we have a skinny roster. To see glaring deficiencies that are the same deficiencies every week, and not attempt to change things at all is borderline incompetent.

I am amazed he can watch week in week out and not even look at different options to fix glaring problems. Or work on the players that are making poor choices and fix them.

I was keen and fully optimistic that we we’re heading in the right direction heading into this season. What I’m seeing is a rookie coach out of his depth in the top job.

Unless they have 100% put the NRL team in the rack for 2023 and are focusing on the prestigious NSW Cup trophy.
Ciraldo aiming for the spoon this year so he can show improvements each year for the next 5 years as he works us up the ladder to 13th by 2027

Couldn’t care about the backline, the big men need to dominate and not get rolled like they have over last month
