blaming the refs is the easiest cop out, how about analysing why we don't get set restarts why we don't cause teams to fatigue and make desperate tackles or become ill disciplined
We don't cause other teams to get fatigued because we we aren't getting the penalties or set re-starts. We are way down on quality but it is compounded by the referees quite significantly.

We just have too many average players still. The forward pack needs a massive clean out as there’s so many players there living on potential. Then you have a look at the hooker and 5/8 they aren’t first grade standard.

Once you fix that things will improve plus once the decent players pick up Tbaz’s structures things will go to another level.
Great input, much love mate, just feeling crappy right now, need light at the end of this tunnel.

Panthers wouldn't want Napa even if we were paying the whole 650!

Gee defence structures are not good. Weak as possible by Napa there.

Answer me this people .. I would genuinely love to hear everyone’s opinion ..

-How much longer do we have to endure this ?

- will we ever be a top team again like years gone by?

- will we attract or keep quality players and coach ?

- why the fuck have we been in such a rut for SO long ??

appreciate all opinions.. thanks !!
Take a look at our players and think about it, who would win games with these reserve players? Thank god we have 15 players off contact, TB should get rid of them all if he's serious about marking Positive changes

Napa is a shadow of his former self.. This weather is perfect for his game. I see nothing but a guy not wanting to play anymore.

In all seriousness. Is there any Canterbury player who would take the spot of his opposing Penrith player in there lineup. I can’t think of any. Maybe Cotric that’s it, yet people expect us to win.
