Attitude is really poor and that’s alarming considering it’s only round 2.

They looked gassed and exhausted from the first half and they didn’t recover in that second half.

Really disappointed they didn’t come with a better attitude especially since Madge is copping it.

There is zero leadership and they’re practically relying on Walsh to do it all.

Reynolds, Mam and Hunt are all on 3 different pages.
 
Hunt needs to be 7 or nothing. Hes not an impact player at his age.
 
I don’t want to be too negative because this group just won the comp but wtf was that? Why is Riki simply incapable of the basics…
We have too many liabilities, JetSki and Riki offer nothing, Staggs is too dumb
 
On the bright side, it seems we're going back to 6. Mam 7. Hunt......well you can't say sooner than we thought because we knew Reynolds could sneeze and suffer an injury now.

Remember the side really took off with that setup last season. The problem is we have to do it against ****ing Melbourne.
 
Reynolds looks like he can barely move, our 2rfs are absolutely terrible, and PVL has ruined the game again with his emphasis on keeping the ball in play: once parra got momentum at the 30th min mark off the back of a BS 4th or 5th tackle 6 again they never lost it
 
Agreed with most that this was a very disheartening performance.

Would remind everyone not to get too far ahead of themselves though in joining the doomsayers in the media. If anyone here starts talking about the boys being burnt out from training too hard they should be banned for the rest of the season.
