We still can’t handle genuine pressure.

Our defense sucks in our red zone

Damn we are disorganized

At the start of this season I thought our real test wouldn’t come until we play the top sides mid-season. We’ve failed our 1st test. Souths are totally out enthusing us in attack and defence. They are walking through us, and that shitty pass from Staggs to Cobbo sums things up perfectly. We...

Dumb kick

The last 2 tries have seen truly appalling defense.

As I said, we can be so dumb, which separates us from the best, at this stage

We can be such a dumb team.

For me, our first real test would be against aggressive applied pressure. So far, we are failing badly. Disconnected, timing isn’t there, no energy. This is a real test for Kevvie, our second half.

Walsh Staggs Hass For mine, they all get 3 points. At last, a class FB ... and playing like one. How refreshing. How looooong has it been? Staggs is becoming the beast he is and Haas is Hass, best prop in the game, and starting to play like it more consistently.

For mine, at full strength, based on their performances so far, Dolphins are a top 4 side. Like us. Looks like the finals will have 3 Qld teams. YES.

My argument is simply that our true mettle is yet to be tested by a full strength (or thereabouts) top 4 side especially now 4 games in. Our real tests will be v Bunnies, Dogs and Manly, and I am not in any way diminishing our excellent performances, in the context I described. It is also hard...

That is not a fair comparison. They were playing their first game without API and Kilau amongst others. They looked lost and disorganized, and yet they went down by 1. Good effort for mine, and from now on, for mine, they remain the team to beat We were also lucky Luke was on for a short time...

Can’t agree. We were sloppy, as a team, and individually, but still won. However, on our performance tonight, I reckon if they had their full strengths side tonight, they win.

Good win. At the same I reckon it’s important not to lose sight of the fact they wee without Kaufusi, Katoa, JM-King, Ese’Ese, and SOS for half the game and Niu a complete passenger (admire his courage). I am nowhere near convinced about our chances for top 4 until we come up against a full...

Under sustained pressure for the first time and .... we still fall apart

Back to where we were : free meters, pussy attack, Reynolds’s looks bored. WTF

Good point. Forgot about Staggs. He’d go well in the back row now that he can destroy in defense as well as attack. Love to see him take on Kaufusi.

Why can't we have our own Kaufusi. It's been so long since Tunza, or Gillmeister. Are we just a bunch of pansies?
