First game back and he pulls that rubbish, you're done, stop holding space and go gracefully.
When I listen to him speak I get so excited to see him play, but he just cannot put it together on the field this year.
I don't know whether it's physical limitations that come with age and injury, or a mental block after his Dally M defeat, but something has gone seriously wrong.
I get that he's at the tail end of his career. But how did he go from orchestrating a league beating offence to struggling to do anything but short balls within 12 months? It's crazy.

Hes lost all confidence. In himself, the team and webby. Look at the kicks he missed during the game. That's psychological
I think its mental along with expectations. When it goes wrong, he knows nothing else and he cant adapt.
One more year, he'll get us to a GF!
Not saying we'll win a prem but he's our best chance at a shot!

A GF in what sport and what division?
Because it's not the NRL and he's too up himself to spend a season primarily in 💙 Mighty NSW...Which is why he doesn't come back from injury through 💙 Mighty NSW. Should be damn compulsory, frankly. You're out for a certain number of weeks, you spend some time in 💙 Mighty NSW getting form/fitness back.
Man some of the ladies have their claws out today. Reow.
Remember he's human at the end of the day and I get that were all bummed, but some of youse should be embarrassed with the shit you're saying.
Unfortunately father time catches up with everyone, but on top of that he's had a couple of injuries that have stuffed his year up. And the kicker is, as a team we played like shit yet it's his fault?
Gummon guys....
It's been a cluster fuck of a year and many things have gone wrong for us, and I know people are looking for that one person or that one reason to blame, sorry guys but its not all SJ

Did SJ even once attack the line last night and take a tackle? Serious question.
It was princess SJ last night. Just shuffle and distribute with aimless uncontested kicks. Pathetic conversion attempts to boot. Useless performance.
What’s strange is he made a couple of really good hits on D.
If you’re willing to give the hits you need to also take a few Princess. Harden the fuck up. Or retire.

Fuck taking the line on he didn’t even attempt to go through the line when it was wide open.
He’s just completely lost interest in running the ball.
If you’re not fit then fuck off just retire and enjoy your millions or come back when you are fit
agree
True.
But if we're giving CHT shit for missing kicks he should have got, we should do the same with SJ.
On reflection my "he's too up himself to play 💙 Mighty NSW" was too harsh as no senior player seems to do that, I guess it's a "we know what you can do so why show us at 💙 Mighty NSW/QLD Morons level" type thinking...
But he was certainly not as good as I was expecting last night. Not that he stood out in the Player Who Didn't Have A Standout Performance stakes amongst the Warriors.
CHT wasn’t the reason we lost that game either and yes they both missed kicks they shouldn’t of
Hey Shaun hope your watching Sam Walker to see how its done
I think they call it EFFORT
Also while i'm about it, can't you kick more than 10 metres from a penalty
