Round 4 - Storm vs Broncos

[Maroon4life]

We have zero direction and that comes from all angles 9 7 1 and the fuxking coach. What do they do at training? I asked the same thing last year with seibs and I’m devastated that I’m asking it again.

Because the 9/7/6/1 are still the same ones who were flogged weekly last year. A new coach isn’t going to stop that. Recruiting players to replace the 6 & 1 will make a big difference though.

 

[Galah]

We need better defenders in the middle it would fix so much

 

[ivanhungryjak]

Protip: when your opposition fullback scores 4 tries in twenty minutes, question your own fullback's defence.

The errors were made long before he got to the fullback.

 

[Morepudding]

I foolishly thought we might keep it respectable against the storm. We have only beaten 1 team in over year. We aren’t beating anyone else

 

[I bleed Maroon]

We have nobody to blame but ourselves for that. Milford MIA again, Dearden dropping too much ball, lazy as **** defence and nothing doing from Isaako. The 40+ defeat is a lock from here. I can't believe we were up 6 nil and didn't immediately lift into a higher gear.

 

[TheGreatCornholio7]

Kevvie said haas won’t be playing big minutes. Has played the entire first half. Kevvie is a fucking garbage coach

Yeah you don't hire a clown as your coach. Kev wanted to be the joker in his playing days and now he is the joke, having said that these players are trash regardless of who's coaching them.

 

[The real talanoa]

I don't care if your Bennett, Henjak, Griffin, Kevie or even fucking Seibold, pisspoor efforts in the basics like this are on the players.

It all starts from the 9 in attack and unfortunately turbinator has no skill. Defensively though there is minimal shoulder and drive. There are some serious cats on the team drinking saucers of milk. Isaako plays in a dinner suit. Niu might be quick but he couldn't tackle the skin off a custard tart. Pangai is wasted in the middle. The middles have no skill either, cardigan has no foot work and no offload. Lodge is too heavy and doesn't look like he wants to be there. Riki will get a cold playing on the edge, wasted big time.
Hass might have a massive engine but if he is 1 out all night and no ball playing he is an easy target.

 

[Sproj]

For a former half, Kev's coaching of our halves is pretty shit. They have absolutely no idea.

In fairness to the halves, what can they do when your forwards are getting not just outmuscled but slaughtered, resurrected as soulless statues and then slaughtered again.

 

[winslow_wong]

These guys need the simplest of game plans. No dropped balls. 4 one out hit ups, kick and chase the kick. We are not capable of any attack

 

[Scorchie]

Well that escalated quickly!

 

[rnabokov]

I don't like Isaako at FB. He can't read a game and he thinks he is better than he is. Just because he can step and run doesn't make him a FB

 

[BruiserMk1]

We have zero direction and that comes from all angles 9 7 1 and the fuxking coach. What do they do at training? I asked the same thing last year with seibs and I’m devastated that I’m asking it again.

+ zero leadership at this stage.

 

[Jason Simmons]

For the amount of money the forwards are taking up in the Broncos cap, they seem to get rolled pretty easily.

But they are STARS, just ask Badel... They are not fucking shit. Honestly...

 

[thenry]

The only thing that saves us from a slaughtering is storm getting complacent.
The storm don’t get complacent

Haha, they actually were complacent for the first 20. Nek minitt

 

[Galah]

Had high hopes for Turpin but the shine is wearing off.

 

[rnabokov]

When are people going to admit Turpin isn’t any sort of upgrade on Macca? Offers no spark whatsoever out of dummy half.
I gave him a rap after game 1. But since then he’s been nothing but a plodder!

He's pretty invisible. No smart running, looking either side instead of always going one way.

 

[Wolfie]

I was waiting for this .. Haas was walking around the middle. He is a prop get him off and play him in proper rotation.

I dont get how you can clearly see players need a spell, but the coach leaves them on for 5-10 mins too long then the errors creep in. Sad to say, i have no faith Kevvie is the man for this job.

 

[winslow_wong]

At least we are good for multis

This.
100% our only solace as fans of the last 3 years.
