we had shit performances like this last year as well. For example the bunnies and chooks games at Mt Smart last year. People forget that it was only 2 weeks ago that we were the best defensive team in the comp and we were looking as strong as we did last year. So the team has it in them to go...

Some of the comments on here are embarrassing. We are in a form slump now, but the damage is far from irreversible. We were 5-5 and in 11th position after round 11 last year. There is time to right the ship. Our season is far from done.

umm where the fuck was this last week?

Playing Melbourne today rather than the tits would have been epic. But that's a debate for another day. For now, let's eat.

People need to realise as well that Webby is not infallible: he may have all the hallmarks of being an amazing coach, but he is still only in the second year of his coaching career. He's learning to be a good coach just as our juniors are learning to be good first grade players. So he's going to...

It's one game people. The vibe here is almost as depressing as whenever the ABs lose and the country has to analyse it to death. Every team this year, even the best ones, have had at least one shocking game where they just didn't turn up. Penrith had a forgettable night at Brooky a few weeks...

I actually agree with you. I'm just trying to rationalise why webby did what he did. He should have been bolder in picking Maiuu and backing him to shine. We literally had no other options for this game. Playing 17 vs 15 as opposed to 17 vs 14 wouldn't have made much of a difference on the game...

I'm sure webby had his reasons for his bench selection which I'm sure will make sense to all of us ex-post should he eventually reveal them. But from where I am standing, it comes down to Webby not believing Zyon was ready. Webby clearly has high expectations for what he considers nrl standard...

I refrained from posting during and after the match. Coming back on here and seeing all the negativity vindicates that decision. This performance reminded me of that crazy win we had against a then top 4 canberra side in 2021 when we were still mud. We scored the upset that day not because we...

RTS defence was super iffy at wing against the bunnies. So I dunno.

Fox late mail suggests that there is a chance of a backline reshuffle. Also saw sam hewat on twitter suggesting that we might be shifting RTS to wing, Pompey to centre and Montoya to drop out. Probably just conjecture on their part, but hope we don't mess with the backline today.

We've still got our best starting 13 out there. Still got the squad to do a number on the dragons, even if we do have a really thin bench. Their bench isn't that much better. I'm not shaking in my boots at the sight of Lawrie or BMM coming off the bench. We monstered them physically last time we...

Honestly think they are a highly overrated team living on their past reputation. JWH is really the only one that has fear factor in that pack and he is past his best imo. Their forward pack was outenthused only a couple of weeks ago by a dogs pack that many would consider among the weakest in...

Don't understand why chooks are so short still on the premiership title market. They look so out of sorts and aren't really going that much better than Souths form wise. Looking forward to playing them in a few weeks.

Vossy used to always joke that wahs games only begin in the last 10 minutes. Probably more apt for Melbourne these days.

We have so many "bogey" teams. Given how shit we've been in the past, it makes sense that there are many teams like the dragons that we've regularly shit the bed against.

If we can physically match manly's massive pack without a proper bench, I can't see the dragons pack named as being something we should be scared about. I'd rather face a middle rotation of Sele, Molo, Lawrie and BMM rather than Piseka, Sipley, etc that we had to deal with last week. Sua is...

Having watched a couple of dragons games recently, I've noticed that for some reason the dragons seem to be completely ignoring Ravalawa's side and focusing their attack solely on Lomax's edge. Seems odd given that Ravalawa + Suli are huge, imposing outside backs that can finish when given the...

JFH, Barney, Thompson x2 would be a mad front row rotation.

We can start fast when we need to. In some of our games (ie sharks, raiders), we dominated the early field position and shot out to an early lead, even if we let them back into the game later on. It's even more imperative in this game to do so which will give us a buffer to counter any momentum...
