Spoke really well. Blamed the ref indirectly.

Yeah he did, seems like a very smart person

 

[CrittaMagic69]

Manly flashbacks.

 

[dogwhisperer]

Man he was pissed
I’d be too, simple errors in our own half, soft defense for about 4 Knights tries and got belted with 6 again sets

Yeah but he seemed upbeat as well

He summed it up; well - inside shoulders soft defence - a few have had those issues a long time - Averillo Napa

 

[Bulldog Wrestler]

Pretty good assessment, and stayed inside the line to avoid a fine.

 

[GoTheDoggies]

Cummins was influenced by the novacastrian bogans

our pack got dominated but the 6 agains were way over the top

 

[LordSidious66]

Are we sure Barrett is the man for the job?

 

[KiwiDog7]

He owned it

I’m glad he didn’t make excuses (Pay would have said inexperienced players give the kids 30,40,50 games bs)

He also hinted at ref shit calls

Someone needed to tell him we got zero penalties

Yeah he was upbeat as well because the things that went wrong are easy fixes, but you can tell he was very disappointed with the players coffing up ball in dangerous positions and the very soft inside shoulder defense.

Yep exactly
Stated he was disappointed with the turnovers is possession and the one on one misses on defence.

"Yardage"

PS he still is a hot **** lol

 

[MoNkEy]

Was a somewhat pleasant difference to....

"Awwww they're a young side, 'ya know".

 

[bradyk]

Just be ruthless Barrett, these players will cost you your reputation and job.

 

[CBDoggies]

A very impressive press from a coach that knows what he is talking about. Is he the right man for the job? Who knows. Way to early days... I just think some troops need to be moved on and some positions strengthened. Couldn’t really tell how the team is going with the stupid mistakes and massive possession Cummins gave the knights but let’s give the ream 5-6 rounds to see how they are really travelling.

He is absolutely right with 6 agains. They can just blow it and not have to justify it. We deserved to lose 110% however the reffing was just...wrong.
