This trial will help so many understand footy. People calling for Papali, Skelton, Hayward etc. they were terrible.

The pressure of first grade defence takes time to get used to. It’s why Hutchinson is first choice halfback. Tracey would be first choice fullback if it wasn’t for injury. Even Taaffe with his limited experience looked better under the highball than Papali.

This is a process. It will take time. We need to buy more experience until the young boys are ready.

We're living rent free in their heads. These accounts are desperate to kill off any discussion that isn't rainbows and butterflies.
It’s like the Jews who sit in the Tel Aviv offices and spread BBC/white girl porn, im certain they have several computers and accounts to try and ruin any discussion in any thread

Meh. Sure we made plenty of errors but only lost by 6 and it doesn’t count. Sharks had a better team for most of the game and didn’t put us away. I’m not sure what TK’s expectations are - to me we looked a hell of a lot better than last year so still headed in the right direction. Or is that the pints speaking? Possible :-).

You just call us shit hahahahha rhats not a debate, its a trial and its baffling you cant actually see how much better defensively that was vs a near full strength sharks and that we lost when we brought reserve grade/juniors on
I sometimes say that in a game thread out of frustration when we drop the ball 13 times in a game but the other half are genuine points. I’m yet to see you give any real reasons why we should be positive about this performance and season except that you hope we get better after a few games.

tell you what I’m gonna start banning people who complain like kids.

It was their FIRST game together, what the hell do you expect? We knew that our side had a lot of orthodox players playing some positions. I’m glad we lost by two SUPER SUPER soft tries. Grow up

we look better than last year. MIND you all Cronulla still had more than half their side playing and we changed our team to New South Wales cup players.

so if you look at that that has to be a great result for our club. I don’t know what you guys are watching, but Cronulla had still most of their players on the field.
Please do mate, the negatory sooking is painful.Plus they should be in therapy, this place ain't that :tearsofjoy:

Taafe spilled 2 bombs and knocked another long kick over the sideline.

im all for constructive feedback however when you have a team that’s finally played for the first time in a live game and you have a squad on the other side with much more experience. What do you expect?

We done well. Yes, there should’ve been a bit more attacking side of things, however, don’t forget that it was pleasing to see a defence be much better than last year with how poorly we were in leaking points.

I don’t mind losing if he still play halfway decent. That performance set us back imo, it was really worrying

What would be defined as complaining like kids though.

Just like the clown crew im certain there’s a few posters who have several accounts who try and destroy any legit discussion about this team
Some people have too much time on their hands if that’s the case !

I know what you’re saying it was definitely rusty but if we lost by 30, what positives can we take out of it?

alright we figured out the negatives, as a club/fan/coach/critic. You need to show positives, what do you think was good that you saw tonight compared to last year ?
