Hutchinson…..hands on hips.
consistently cuts back in field to no one
Falls over himself in defence
No kicking game
No passing game
No threat
No challenge
So if he’s only there for size in defence he’s not even doing that. They scored last in his side.
kiks may as well be our 7

We played the full eighty showed some real grit prod of the team coach and club we are on our way bac. That was a full strength Melbourne side we took to the wire
That’s it. Well they lost Kamikamica early and without NAS but that’s a selection call. Fact is we are missing almost half our best 17 and still put the sword to them. Sucks not to get the points but very good signs going forward.

Side note. Anyone notice that Burton was a good kicker from the sideline and now he's not. And what happened in between....

He reckons he discovered the Earth is flat.

Think about it.

Like the commentators said...Dogs were the better side.

What gets me is...if Burton is struggling with conversions from the left side of the field, why doesn’t he give it to Critta. Critta is a right footer and it's easier for him than a left footer. FMD, put the team first and do it.

Chrichton back to left center, Xerri right center, Tracy fullback Taafe HB.
No way, Xerri an fox need to both be in the left after seeing tonight’s performance. And Xerri is a left I side specialist!!! Be stupid to move him from where he is most comfortable and forming a great combo with Fox, don’t break up a strong force !!!!

Fuck me theres a lot of sad sacks on here.
that was basically our reserve grade pack and we probably should’ve beaten the storm, in Melbourne.
thoughts;
Tracey is the best FB at the club, been saying that since we signed him.
I know Taffe was starting to look better, but the fact that Tracey didn’t need a pre season and 4 games to find his feet, says it all.
Hutchison is killing me, replace with Taffe.
Fox haters, fuck off.
Xerri makes me smile.
Kiks makes me hard.

He’s stopped allowing for the curvature of the Earth!

Despite the loss I'm not as disappointed as the Parra and Souths game. The team has showed that we can compete with top four sides. We'll take a lot out of this game and be better for it, I haven't said this in a long while but we definitely look like a top 8 team.


Kiks is our best player.
Xerri and Foxx look dangerous on the left. We will score tried easy with Burton,Kiks, Xerri, Foxx left side.
Tracy doesn't make me nervous at FB and his kick returns are great including his work rate.

Add a decent halfback and we're going to win a lot of games.

I know I must sound like a broken record, but why doesn't the club hire a dedicated attacking coach? When it gets to tackle 3 or 4 the team has no fucking idea what to do. Surely Gus can find some money and hire a dedicated attacking coach. Just need to get that bit sorted out (and shoot Hutchison into outer space) and this team will be top 8, no worries.

We were paying 6.70 for this game and almost had it. We deserved the win but the 2 stupid tries to melb helped them.

Well done boys and ciraldo

We desperately need a controlling half who has a bit of pace.

Really impressed with Kikau, Tracey and Xerri tonight. Forwards were solid overall. Hutch and Critta had fuckin shockers.
