[wizard of Tauranga]

We’re tactically using our energy in the wrong areas and it has cost us the season.

We have strong aggressive defence once the tackle is engaged but are to exhausted to make tackles due to fatigue. Many holes from tired defenders and to many times players left on the ground instead of at marker. Put less in after the tackle is engaged and more into marking in defence.

We are the king of post contact meters on attack… and then have nothing left in the tank to score in attacking positions. Slow motion dummy runners, players to deep, a step to slow to make a break, etc.

Same every week - we dominate the stats but the opposition outscore us and we can’t score enough points.

We’ve trained ourselves for endurance at the cost of speed and quick reflexes.

And to cap it off our intensity in the contact; fighting out post contact meters and bodies aimed at endurance, have resulted in the most injuries in the NRL.

A lot for the coaches to think about for next year.

 

[Inruin]

Horribly predictable

 

[Aman 2.0]

Ali isn’t ready for Fg

CHT is mud

Johnson is past it

CNK is so boring

Roger is wasted on the wing

No Wonder AFB wants to leave

Lussick has surpassed Egan (wow)

Webby has no idea on attack

 

[Dantheman]

youse got what youse wanted. Ale is terrible, leiatua and mgt way off.

You know it’s bad when asi looks like cooper cronk

 

[Aman 2.0]

That finish was so fucking warriors

Ofcourse you learn to score when it’s ALL over.

Game, season and a lot of these careers.

 

[FormerlyJamesW]

Yip. That's 2024, chaps.

 

[Bluecat]

Like the Warriors of old. Normal service has been resumed.
How can one club be so consistently subpar for so long?

 

[Aman 2.0]

mGT and Ale were good except for those single errors

But yea leitua ain’t up to FG with that defence

 

[itsouryearwhenever]

There’s no excuses for a game against a team on a massive losing streak. And just like that our chances are most likely gone. That robotic playstyle we’ve been going about has to change because teams know how to deal with it and we waste energy just defending and defending without putting points back on the board once the opposition gets going. A year to forget

 

[bringinthebulls]

Luka mikiafu was no fluke when we went on that run mid season last year.

I also miss Curran and Sironen

Isnt it amazing what they can pull off in the last 10 when they NEED to try score.

Next year guys

 

[Aman 2.0]

Winning all the stats except the games

Strategy is not right. That’s ALL ok Webby.

I feel like he’s one of those coaches that does well with little but does little with alot.

We had the team and we’ve completely shat the bed this year.

Challenging the All blacks? mate we can’t even challenge when our life’s are on the line at home against one of the worst teams in the comp who haven’t played in NZ in 8 years!!!

 

[Worried2Death]

Needed Rocco and Pomps to win that, our rookie defence is Tigers level. Hope we're recruiting to replace Jazz and Walker, new attack coach would be good too.

 

[Sir Arrow]

Is Stacey the attack coach? Who was the attack coach last year?

 

[snake77]

Congratulations to the Eels. The soaked up early start and took advantage of our errors.

We moved the ball and couldn't find space. They could.

Also did some good work with their tries making break and supporting the ball carrier. Basically performed the basics of rugby league.

 

[WahsaurusRex]

Stacey Jones is our coach for last tackle options.

This is the man coaching our country.

 

[Beastmode]

meh.

Just a game aye…

Whole team was rubbish.

What’s everyone up to this weekend? Olympics?…

 

[Wellington Warrior]

Highlight of my night was watching Zoe Hobbs run a season best to qualify for the next round of the women’s 100m

Fuck the Wahs were trash.

 

[KPWarrior]

Now the season is done we gotta keep picking the young guys.

We can't afford to just give them a taste of FG then back to Cup, or sit on the bench for 72 minutes, they need to learn in First Grade.

We're not the fkn Panthers!

 

[Sir Arrow]

Stacey Jones is our coach for last tackle options.
