Yeah he did have a couple of good moments but unfortunately these last 2rnds have seen more bad than good. Errors will kill us against the good sides, much like they did against the raiders last week.
We need more out of our marque player.
I dare say he will have the next week or two off.
I have no doubt he can turn things around, I just think he needs to slow things down a little. Looks like he has a million different options running through his mind. Just needs to calm it a little imo.
That's the worst option right now, look at his defence when we were getting rolled through Cowboys first half. Paix defence was immense and he would of been out of steam to run from that.

Agree.
You wonder how long Madge will persist with it though.
Kobe is almost invisible out there.
Walsh hasn’t turned into a potato for no reason, he’s working in a fraction of the space he normally has.

Guys it's round 3. Look at where Penrith was and how they were playing in Round 3 some of the past few years.
There's still time. We banked the win, defended alright at times and have plenty of upside with still lots of improvement to come.

I'm a massive Walsh fan, but this is bang on the money.
He is scared to get hit mate. He really needs to incorporate his game in the middle and not be scared to take a few hits. I dont believe toughness is a size issue but rather something he needs to incorporate into his game. Smaller players like papen and slater arent huge but always pose a massive threat in the middle with line breaks

Idk if only i have picked up on this, but i pretty much gauarntee every time a team does the short drop out agaisnt us we will never get the ball back, its happned lile 99.99 percenr of the time the last few years, surely they can do some drills on it, they look like they never have any urgency to get the ball

The only really good thing about tonight's game was our line speed. That definitely improved, we were in their face alot more and off the line quicker, real good. Our overall defense a close 2nd.
HOWEVER
I cannot believe how diabolical Reece is, it's hard to watch and making me not like him as a player. You can tell he's a show pony. Just wants to score off EVERY play, his decision making is horrendous. He's just not good atm. Defenses have worked him out, all you have to do is put pressure on him, get in his face and he'll make an error. He's hurting our team more than anything and I hope he does get suspended for 1-2 weeks. He needs to figure it out.
Overall as a team we are very disjointed and clunky. I can't believe what I'm seeing at times, for the amount of talent we have, we would of lost to 99% of teams tonight.

He is a machine, and worth every dollar. The Cows didn't want a bar of him running at that pace.

Walsh is the perfect candidate to be playing up the middle with that acceleration of his. He would only need to worry about running straight through some tiring forwards that someone like haas will rough up already.

One positive for sure tho is the boys look fit.
Yep 100% mate, if hethrington can get a line break I reckon Walsh should be able to as well haha
