I mean it's a gifted game and after that shit result we had, we have to come here with a message against a team who is probably spoon worthy.

it definitely seems like we lack actual set plays, given most of what we scored in the roosters game was alot of adlib off defence domiance and against Raiders we had Walsh and Hunt away from basically most of our attack which tells me set plays have been basically forgotten.

Relying mostly on highballs and not set plays, that said I think we are doing the right thing with Patty and Haas on ball playing it's just everything else has been questionable.

Even a close win in this one would leave me concerned. The Cows look god awful and mentally checked out this year, we need to put them to the sword.

 

[Mustafur]

ALT control delete, start again.

 

[GCBRONCO]

Format Walsh: /s

 

[Emanon]

I think if we get into a grind for an extended period of time, and neither team can get near the line or its within 6 points in the 1st half, take the shot for a 2 point field goal if within range.

 

[Bronx48]

Well we played the one of worst games we’ve seen in years so surely it’s only up from here. Surely…..

 

[McHunt]

Reload, fire.

 

[GCBRONCO]

I just hope that was the golden turd for the season and we can move on.

 

[Battler]

the cows have been truly abominable to start the season, but you can bet your bottom dollar that they will treat this like a grandfinal and the refs will ofc try to keep it close like they usually do with this derby.

We have to start well and show some energy from the kick off.

I'd be bringing in Taupau or Te Kura...or even both. Fire a rocket up Jensen and Willison or Piakura.

I know you add Piakura to that, but Jetski was diabolical tonight to the point he really should be dropped... and Piakura would be who fills the spot.

I definitely agree with Marty, he will bring agro, Te kura not yet, I think we need the expereince for this bounce back.

Totally fair point, Gosiewski was absolutely atrocious.

 

[Mustafur]

Totally fair point, Gosiewski was absolutely atrocious.

Would like to know how J Hunt is doing in Qcup, because he was pretty good in the trials.

Regardless Piakura is never a starter, he is a space cadet with shocking defence.

 

[Brocko]

Gosiewski: 50 mins, 5 runs, 29 metres, 13 tackles with 4 misses. It's not just on him, but I'll be disappointed if that doesn't warrant dropping.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Gosiewski: 50 mins, 5 runs, 29 metres, 13 tackles with 4 misses. It's not just on him, but I'll be disappointed if that doesn't warrant dropping.

And two of those missed tackles led directly to tries.

**** our second row depth is concerning. We really should be on the hunt for a decent signing like right now.

 

[Brocko]

Gosiewski: 50 mins, 5 runs, 29 metres, 13 tackles with 4 misses. It's not just on him, but I'll be disappointed if that doesn't warrant dropping.

Riki also ordinary... but better than Jetski.

80 mins, 13 runs, 107m, 39 tackles, 6 misses.

Hetho 6 missed tackles, Hunt 4, Shiba 5. Probably warrants a change or 2.
