LIVE GAME Round 11 vs. Dolphins

[BAGNF05]

Stains get space on wing. Pulls up. I’m starting to think he might not be a the speedster were led to believe

Cat.

We we weren't good enough, but how about at 12-6
Kasey badger in the bunker again missing the double
knock on. We had scored with 1 in the bin too smh

Yeah she’s hopeless. Our guys have to be more game aware though.

Cue the blokes who don’t really give a shit about the club but love piling shit on.
The keyboard hardnuts.
Yes, we need a few new guys but we get the wrong side of the stick every week…. Doesn’t help.

 

[Wiz]

I'm not sure Galvin has the pace to play 6

Agree. Was thinking the same thing every time he touched the ball tonight. Looked very slow.

The players?

 

[Siberian Kitten]

Why was our home game given to Magic Round? Are we that great that we can afford to have our home games given away?

 

[Winston Churchill]

My summary..


The team is immature however there are green shoots...

We were in that till the end.

We were in it until the kick off.

 

[Tucker]

Who are the 2 centre's next week ? I'm guessing olam and naden will be suspended , toa injured. Anyone left ?

Faataape?

 

[Love_the_WestsTigers]

How about the call from Warren Smith “Here’s Charlie Staines, watch him go”. I have Waz, many times. He’s in quicksand every time.

He tries 3 times harder than 2/3 of our of all players. Not going to criticise a bloke who actually tries. Unlike others.

 

[tigermate]

Today we didn’t get a line break off a set play and scored our tries exactly the same way 3 players in the tackle and we offload.

Exactly

The u12s run block plays these days

We don’t run one all game and haven’t for a few weeks

 

[Telltails]

I'm no Naden fan or even want to defend him but I've seen players dive on players on the ground too many times to count and because Bostock made an error and laid down that is the only reason that was a sin bin. The feigning is ruining the game and it seems we get binned as well as penalised. They played with courage tonight and the Dolphins were given leeway that we were not.

 

[The Fresh Oil]

We were in it until the kick off.

They lost the coin flip

 

[Speed2burn]

This was the worst game i've ever watched. Worse then the bloody cowboys massacre.

Easily worst game of the round too

The depressing thing is we do try hard but we’ve got nothing. The team is full of other clubs rejects mixed in with some overhyped youngsters

 

[Halbrowne61]

Seriously, I'm surprised more people don't think this. Benji never seemed to have any structure at all. Just a cool step, flukey flick passes, and team-mates always looking for what he was going to do.

Spot on Q, not really the perfect prep for the hard world of NRL.
He’ll probably get there, in about 5 years ! I don’t think I can wait that long.
That’ll do me, goodnight to all.

 

[tigermate]

Benji was never coached as a player, was given the ball and told to run, thinking the bloke knows anything about coaching is the biggest joke of 2024.

Are you a member? 😀

Yep - “play what you see” - lol

We have no structure !

We Fcking suck again!

Pls pls pls get a new attacking coach and someone with lots of experience so benji is on his toes

It’s a boys club

I’d love to see some stats on that statement.

 

[BalmainJnr]

File that one under, “we beat ourselves again”.

Benji was never coached as a player, was given the ball and told to run, thinking the bloke knows anything about coaching is the biggest joke of 2024.

Was never in favour of Benji being appointed coach;even less happy about the way it was cooked up. However, like most, I support the team & whoever is coaching.
Benji has to be accountable because he went along with it.
Which other club appoints a head coach who had never coached before at any level.

 

[Telltails]

Yeah they’re bloody awesome 👍🏼

No one is saying there awesome. They play to their ability and by rights should have got smashed

 

[BirchgroveTigers]

Proper proper dumb performance but a hell of a lot of effort which I think sums up where we're at. We compete but we can't win as we have the smarts of bunch of potatoes and no class in the outside backs.

On the positives, I thought Alaimalo looks like he could be a solid squadie with a full off season though you'd want a starter in front of him (joined us right before the season kicked off) and Sione Fainu could easily overtake Seyfarth as our 2nd/3rd bench prop.

Hopefully they can find a space to offer Sione a new contract. Fainu brothers seem like a trio we should keep around IMO...
