Round 5 Discussion

[Jedhead]

Honestly, don't care. I don't care if we vs'd Melbourne 5 times in a row, there's no excuse to get absolutely run through like turnstiles. No pride in defence.

Talent stops you from scoring point, it doesn't stop you from defending with heart.

Mate you’ve watched enough games to realise that the mysterious unfathomable ‘confidence’ and form can come-and go at the drop of a hat. I mean look at the first 60 minutes of the dogs game. It was shocking, and then we scored and all of a sudden everything clicked.

Im fully convinced if we had a run against Manly, tigers,Newcastle and cowboys when they were all sorting themselves out we’d be in a much better place.

i know we’re doing some unforgivable shit at the mo, but given the teams who have had 5-6 years practicing systems with gun players are the ones coming at us I can understand why.

Let's see where we're at in 6 weeks? I think we'll have a fair indication by then if there's any improvement in this team. You're right, consecutive games against the elite teams isn't good, but don't you think we should be showing a little more fight, even if we can't match them for talent and execution?

If we lose by 20-30 fair enough, they're a much better team. If we lose by 40-50 they're just hacks with no pride. You can lose with some respect and earn some respect from the fans.

I agree but this six again momentum stealer makes it tough for any defence as there is just no time to catch your breath. Witness the biggest blowout scores since 2004 this year and it’s not just us.

As hard as it is to believe, I think the Tigers might have worse halves than we do

 

[Wolfie]

Mcguire out, the cowboys lift. Coincidence or....

Coincidence i think. I guess we will see if they keep it up next week.

Yep i agree, in fact i would say only the Doggies and Tigers are worse than us this year. Which is grim for us, but at least we are not the Tigers or Doggies >.>

They're vsing the dogs next week...

At what point does McGuire get called out for for being a shit coach.
He has only had success with a side that made pies look good.
This Tigers side hasn't turned up today and that is all on the coach IMO.

Honestly I'm off Kev already. He's lost my faith, that's for sure. I don't think he should be sacked, because this roster is shit house, but defence is attitude, and considering we've had a magic run with injuries compared to last year, you could argue our defence is even worse than last year.

All the talk about defence but we are as or shittier than ever in that department.

Let's see the cows play the storm , rabbitohs and Panthers in a row. **** me
Oh look at the cows 2 tries in 4 minutes great against the Tigers

 

[Wolfie]

Looks like the improvement lasted a half, lol

 

[mrslong]

A Hollywood script isn’t this good

 

[Wolfie]

They are collapsing like we do. Maybe its a Queensland sides thing.

Cows have come back to spoon level in the last 20, so I change my comment to 3 way race.

 

[Wolfie]

Seems they have a bit more steel than us after all.

Haha , still want the cows to win but
