Think its time we shake the spine. I can see Bird and Boyd swap positions. Bird would run the ball back with more intent but unsure on his passing game. Nik has been better than milf imo but if we do need a change move Nik to bench or 9 and come on at end of both halves. Put SoS or Dearden 7 Milf 6. Lodge and Tpj will help and yes Fifita or Sua should be on edge and not middle. Gillo still right edge, he is a rock and no one scored on that edge.

I figured out what our problem is ... this team can only win on Friday nights ...

not having our usual allotment of Friday games has thrown the team off balance ...

in fact we have only had 1 Friday game all year, and we blew the Cowboys away in it

The jury is still out mate. He needs to cut some deadwood.

He’s written off the season. Get him.

Fair call but he's a lost cause, I believe in you though. If you promise to never burn your jersey I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you and I will kill you.

One of my Mates is a crazy rabbitohs fan and he was so happy seibold left. He said we will regret signing him because he has no idea what to do with the bench. Apparently multiple games last year Seibold had 1, sometimes 2 people on the bench who didnt get on the field and their team lost those games.

After tonights mindfuck of a bench, starting to see his point.

Honestly burning a jersey sounds like more effort than our team has put in this year. Probs just chuck it out :p

Milford needs a halves partner that will allow him to play second receiver. He is so much better when he is allowed to play wider of the ruck, but he just isn't able to with Nikorima as his halves partner.

I actually think Nikorima at five-eighth with a proper halfback would be better than Milford at five-eighth with that same halfback. Nikorima can pretty much do everything Milford can do, except for kicking. I'd also go as far as to say that Nikorima does every thing else better than what Milford can, at a fraction of the price. He seems to be way more effective when running, he has a better passing game than Milford, he seems to have a better attitude than Milford, and he seems to try harder too. Plus Milford's kicking game isn't spectacular either. He just puts up midfield bombs up most of the time, with a few good grubbers here and there.

A lost cause?? It was literally his 1st post.

Nah Nikorima is a speedbump in defence and does a lot of suicide passes. It's painful watching that right edge collapse with him there. Thats why Roberts and Isaako never score.

I was hoping the defensive issues I noticed last season would just vanish with a new coach, they didn't.

I seriously couldn't give 2 shits about our attack right now, we'll score points eventually with the players we have, the absolute only issue worth discussing, or fretting about is defense.

I could see these issues coming a mile away. I was posting stats last year in regards to our points conceded, every single year after 2015 our defense got worse, and worse, and worse, and worse. This season looks to be the pinnacle of our defensive woes.

I can see why Wayne wanted to get out of dodge, he's not stupid, he could see the defensive issues were too deep to fix in an off-season or two, this is going to take an entire foundational re-build, roster, structure, fundamentals, systems, everything. There may be incremental improvements Seibold can make to it this year, but it won't be anything to write home about.

Strap yourselves in, the 1 year plan just became a 3-4 year plan.

Very frustrating listening to the presser with Seibold. Insistent that all this is "learning" and that we took a step in the right direction.

It was so clear that we hadn't improved from last week and the Raiders were not great themselves.

Do people still say "Just win ffs" before games? And I don't mean in a joke or an ironic way. In the past it used to be posted with a lot of heart and charisma, that's why it worked.

What a bullshit statement, I pray that we turn our season around so you can eat fucking dirt and look like a bigger fool than you already do. He's not a hack, far from it. Fans like you will always expect to win every game and that's so unrealistic that you thinking it's possible further demonstrates your stupid statement.

It was a close game, sometimes you lose them. Guess what, we've lost all our close games this season. We easily could've won them in which case you'd be nowhere to be seen. That sums up everything you say perfectly.

Wayne didnt want to get out of dodge though. He would have signed here if we let him.

Milford straight up just drops it cold, or uses his "footwork" and goes nowhere. Milford has to be one of the worst five-eighths in the game. That is not an overreaction after today's match, but its been evident for the past four years. The move to five-eighth has made him put on weight, which has resulted in him losing his speed and footwork. Without those two things, he is bog average. His defence is pretty bad too.

Disagree.

We tried to get Bellamy, because we know for a fact he knows how to coach a side to be defensively minded. Once that failed, Wayne was pulling all the strings to get out of town, and bring the whole thing down with him if he could.

Anthony, is that you?
