For the folks at the game to see so many fundamental errors was incredibly disheartening -- glad I wasn't there -- and they let the players know.

Sometimes I wonder if our players live too much in a 'happy bubble' and become disconnected from a warrior attitude which is required when you go into battle. In the words of Jocko Willink... when under pressure focus on two things only, prioritize (quickly) then execute (well). Our execution under heat is ordinary at best, dreadful at worst... and by dreadful, I mean I ability to give the aggott back to the opposition.
Last night the mistakes from senior players were as bad and as disappointing as I have seen. Chains of errors is the only chain we can manage at the moment. I am under no illusion that Brisbane are a top side, but I just expect better execution than that from senior players (who are supposed to help groom the kids). If I had the time and the stomach for it, I would watch the game again and catalog the errors.
