Does anyone have any theories on what the hell happened to Niukore?

Seriously - bloke is massive, but can't put on a hit and struggles to get any post contact metres. Deadset softie.
I think we're just using him entirely wrong. Stick him on the bench and let him be an impact sub like Leniu. We need it more than ever now given AFB left and Barnett and JFH are very similar players.
 
This isn't the first coach this has happened to in this club.

Clubs like the Storm have expectations of winning. Every person who works at the club has expectations of each other. Hell, the shitter scrubbers are probably the best in the biz.

What's the 'vibe' at Mt Smart? I wonder.
They have an expectation of winning cos Bellyache is a cunt who demand excellence.
 
AW definitely dropped his bundle in this game!?

I've now seen enough of Jackson Ford for the whole season. Egan was awful, when your eyes are that far apart there's got to be a reason. Bring on Sam Healy

So we have two senior representative props starting the game and co-captaining, not such a great idea when they're both on the bench telling the young gun reserves to wait their turn. On that note, what's the point of bringing on the exciting and talented young forwards with 20-25 minutes to go, are they supposed to save the game..

Marata and Kurt, what can I say, both of you played like imposters! Hope Jacob Laban can grease AW to pick him in the starting lineup..
 
Coming into the season I was worried where out points would come from.

The focus especially in the early season should have been to be fit, own the middle and defend. Stay in the contest and try and find a way to find points.

The trials it looked like the defence may be an improvement on last year. Some of the tries like the intercept you can't do much about besides chase as you are chancing you arm. The CNK knock on that went off the leg is a bit unlucky.

One of the first half tries off the dummy half break is one you may live with. But if you look at 2023 we'd defend those.

The fact they scored the first time they go into our 20 was the first big worry.
 
Well that performance just screwed up our recruitment for 2026. No one will want to sign. I guess thats why we keep upgrading crap because we have to fill the roster
 
RTS has to be the Fb.
I repeat LM is not a 7. Has to be the 6.
We need outside backs with speed.
We have to use Leka and Vaimauga more
Maybe Boyd to 7.
And the middles need huge improvement
Ive been on that train the whole preseason.
Boyd 7 Metcalf 6
Metcalf just looks to restraint at 7, he probably thinks he needs to set up plays, leave that to Boyd.
I want TMM at FB after seeing Charnze today aswell.
I think he has aged and TMM can bring another level of attack.
