From the bits I saw, it's clear to me we have enough decent players in this team, but we lack direction from our halves and 9. Until that changes we are in trouble.

Kicking game was trash, but the difference was personified by Flegler vs Kaufusi
Flegler was spent after 8 mins Kaufusi was the best forward on the field for 30mins.
60% completion rate in the first half, simple drops and shit ends to the set to give easy possession back to the eels.
Right edge was shit in defence as usual... eventually fatigue caught up with us and we were done.
After we had our 10mins spell of shitness we just needed to slow everything down, get through sets, kick to corners... and try and at least fatigue the eels by making them do some work.... just poor all round game management from the halves as usual

It's hard to watch. I get no enjoyment watching this side at the moment. They have no fucking idea.
Shits me to wake up every morning to read another article about how player X want $300k, player y wants $700k.......**** me, none of these players apart from Haas and TPJ deserve to be fed. We have the same salary cap as other teams and this is the best we can do........**** me dead.

In all seriousness will the Donkos go back to back Spooners.
We did it easy in 2012/13 so it's definitely a goal still left for you guys.
Good luck.

The right side:
pangai: impact forward who should spend time in the middle and on the edge during a game, not 80 on the edge it is too easy to work him over
Croft: always has had issues with defence
Farnworth: rookie, inexperienced in both position and game awareness, he shouldn’t be playing centre
coates: inexperienced and doesn’t trust his inside men
They can’t run out with this edge next weekend against Fifita

We were definitely lost without Glenn’s simple instruction tonight.

So long as the Doggies stay consistent we are safe.
But make no mistake, its between them and us.

Honestly, I'm of the opinion that dropping Milford was for several reasons...
His own good for starters - He just hasn't looked happy playing for a very long time. Get him back to Qcup to start enjoying the game again, get a few wins under his belt and hopefully gain some confidence.
Get him out of the spotlight - Our forwards could make 100m between all of them and he would still somehow cop the blame. This is not an apology for the way he's been playing but it isn't ALWAYS his fault.
Get the team away from the "give it to Milford" mentality
He was absolutely one of the main issues with our team, but removing him has highlighted that he isn't the only one. IMO anyway.

Back to back spoons for sure.
Milford has been bad but he is significantly better than Croft or Dearden. Nothing can save us though. We are absolute shit right across the park. Only players who played tonight who should he kept are TPJ and Haas: everyone else should **** off.
Honestly drop 10 of these **** wits next week. Not like we will win anyway. We have run out basically the same team for 2 years and gotten fucked every game. What the **** are they thinking

I must concede, I’ve taken shots at @broncsgoat for his early criticisms of Dearden given how green he is, but he really hasn’t shown any development or special moments that make you sit back and think he’s the second coming.
I must also say that I’m not willing to cast him aside just yet, but gee whiz he was poor / invisible tonight and really needs to show us something, anything.
I hope you’re wrong goat, but it’s starting to look like you might not be

I think tonight Kevvie will realise how big the job is that's ahead of him, it's alright the first few weeks.. you're still upbeat about it, then you get a huge improvement..
Then you nearly get done by 50, it's a bit like winning at the TAB and then backing 3 consecutive losers, what was it all for?

Guess we'll at least have something to show for the season, you'll just have March/April premiers tag again.

I wouldn’t keep Coates. He’s too fucking stupid. We have guys in the nrl like Sivo who can’t speak English but they still communicate better in defence than he does. He wouldn’t have two brain cells. Absolute numpty

Yea i guess, they do have a new half coming in though which could spark things.
And we have not beat the tigers in 2 seasons so im confident we are worse.
Remember, 2 wins in 25 games and both of those against the Doggies
