Round 13 - Dragons vs Broncos

[Rico]

In terms of cap management and whilst still saleable, I’d be shopping TPJ non stop over lodge. A wet night away from home in origin period is where you expect a player like him to raise the bar and nothing .... again

 

[McHunt]

I was probably one of the last Isaako defenders heading in to this game, but that'll do me. Don't think he should ever play first grade for the club again. The lack of effort and attention to detail is absolutely mind boggling for someone with the physical tools and talent that he has.

Bring Niu in at Fullback, or bring him in at centre and let Farnworth have a crack at Fullback. No more Isaako.

No thanks to Niu. He's been a turnstile in QCup. I'd be giving him permission to join Fifita at the Titans.

Herbie looked okay up the back. Staggs to centre. Karmichael Hunt if he's not ready yet.

 

[Brocko]

Odds on Milf picked at 1 next week?

Lets watch the world burn together

 

[mrslong]

You have a point, perspective and all that, but when its fresh, it hurts worse lol.
I raged hard at Isaako tonight, but you are right, there have been way worse moments.

I’ve reached acceptance in the cycle of grief, you’re still in anger zone....don’t worry, you will work your way through it in your own time.

Well that was one of the quickest post game pressers I’ve seen..
Seems Kev has not many answers himself either.

 

[Galah]

I never gave a single **** about the events of 2011. It was established long ago that Cronulla and Essenden weren't trying to cheat, they were duped by Dank and were trying to speed up recovery times. Anyway, that is the past and the lessons were learned I'm sure. Just about everyone deserves a second chance.

I was more interested in what Flanagan the coach could do. KW was always up against it but we aren't there yet in the fundamentals. KW needs to be a leader here. The press conference should be interesting. I'm wondering if KW has hit the wall yet.

He’s got to be close because whatever he is doing is most definitely not working.

How it feels watching the Broncos with the family.

 

[Mr Fourex]

Ashton Sims will forever hold that spot in my heart,

Agree about Niu. We keep promoting guys to young and wonder why they **** up. Niu will be good in 2 to 3 years

 

[BroncsFan]

Jamayne either needs a break or some time on the wing.

Still not sure why no Oates, even if he was used in a wing-2nd row rotation

Can't put him on the wing... last time he was down on confidence and put on the wing he was fucking horrendous. Every bomb that went his way was basically a repeat set for the opposition.

 

[Huge]

Wow. Short press conference. He's bitterly disappointed and not just Isaako. Don't blame him. I haven't lost faith in either of them but the waves keep pounding the foundations. We'll get there and when we do it will be all the sweeter.

Of course, we all know if Kennedy didn't have that leg injury...just saying

 

[broncsgoat]

I hope that fella didn’t take the 9-1 on us 13+

 

[Jedhead]

I counted at least three times Lodge bent the line and got his arm free not once was there r anyone there to take his offload. Surely Kev must see this when he rewatches the game.

Just when you think you have seen everything this team finds new ways to **** up and lose a game.

Why is our defence so soft? Why is our line speed nonexistent after 13 rounds? Our defensive coach needs a good friggin rev up, but really the whole team needs group therapy. If there is anew way to lose this bunch will find it.

 

[Stix]

What did he say?

 

[heartly87]

Isaako... Rubbish absolute rubbish. One of the dumbest footballers I have ever seen play the game I think. That ball he just let go was unforgivable and he should have been hooked on the spot. The problem is obviuous with him, he is a a guy trying to be a fullback, like when he tripped over under the posts, he thinks his job is just to run with no game awareness to cover the kick, no eyes on the players with the ball. Everything he does is by the motions, he doesn't understand what a fullback is.

Obviously Dufty would be an improvement, but either way we need to give somebody else a go. This Isaako bloke is a dud, I thought he could improve but tonight doesn't happen to quality fullbacks. He will never be anything but what he is, a powerful athlete who has some skills but nothing between the ears.

TPJ was underwhelming tonight I thought, GLenn is done as in need to finish his career in Qcup and Flegs is also a moron. It is the same guys coming up the dumb plays, the drop balls ect. The axe needs to be swung.

As a fan I am dead set sick of it.

 

[Mr Fourex]

But but but….Milford

...are you suggesting Milford to fullback?

 

[Huge]

I hope that fella didn’t take the 9-1 on us 13+

He did. 450

 

[Harry Sack]

@Huge in regards to Flanagan, I got blocked out of the other page.

I did,I agreed with your thoughts on Flanagan, if you go have a look.

great coach, name smeared because he cheated which is fair enough but he doesn’t give a ****. He has the ego and balls to coach this club.

Im 100% off kevie, my mind is set on him and I can’t see it being changed. I don’t like the way we’re playing, not because of the floggings but just how we look structure wise, energy wise and trust with the man beside them. Yes we have some average players but they don’t lack talent they’re shit because they never seem to have their heads in the game. Whatever they’re being coached isn’t drilling into them. That’s bad coaching just like siebold. The buck stops with the boss and the boss is kevie. If I can’t do the absolute basics as an infantry soldier I get my arse handed to me and guess who gets it worse....the boss. Shit flows downstream

Which page is this? The live game thread? It's locked and not open to further replies mate, that's all.
