Basically he is a downhill skier, would be good in a top line side but useless for us. For someone on his coin and with his experience, I expect a lot more when the chips are down. Oooooo, he popped his thumb back in a soldiered on, whoppy feckin do.

Its not a cheap shot, I just think your putting a fair bit of mayo on the kids game. Yes it was better than what he has produced thus fair, I just wouldn't call it immense nor would I say he was our best. Apologies if I offended.

Agree on Rowe, having a fine season in a tough position.

Like I said earlier I thought Cripps was no good, 30 odd possessions but effectiveness down and didn't hurt. I'm a bit worried about him. March bank I'll pay you, didn't think plowman was awesome.
Mayo possibly, but to me he genuinely look the most assured.

@BA
Terrific post. I'm also a sore loser but perspective is required at this stage. I really thought we would have done better than that and confident pre game. I still dont rate Port, they will be exposed when the whips start cracking dont worry about that, blokes like Gray, Wingard and even Wines go missing when things get hard. But well done to them, they did what they had to against us last night in the end.

Interested in people's thoughts on docherty. A shadow of himself compared to last year. Is it the loss of tuohy as another outlet - so as our only outlet is easier for opposing players to shut him down?
Also, I don't think we had a tackle in the forward 50 until q4. Clearly not good enough and for this along I think could cost picket his spot.

Anyone going to have a crack at the pathetic coaching performance last night?
Ignore the rebuild for the moment, the speed of ball movement (and I admittedly tuned out during Q3) was glacial.....

Will the Captain, with zero tackles, get the same treatment then?

I want to know why our opposition manage to get separation on our blokes so easily? We get murdered on the spread btw the 50's and oppo fowards often mark hands out on a lead.
In contrast, our ability to spread is terrible and our fwd are always being asked to pack mark and crumb.
Our set up and running patterns need alot of work.
