I can't believe how much pressure is actually stacked on young Riddy. Today was the first game he has been selected immediately following a loss. Talk about a scapegoat,he's hardly going into games with the confidence of Darren Lockyer.......As it happens I don't think he was anything near our worse performer

Well although I don,t think he,s the reason for todays result his defence isn,t too good. is it ? I wouldn,t pick him for the first team mind you I wouldn,t pick Madden O,Connell, how ineffective can you be till you are droppped? Smith was dire. Reay can,t tackle, Stewart would have been worse with him, Leulai centre ? Oh dear me.

Had I played today it wouldn,t have maked that much of a difference and I,m expected to applaud that shower off after the match/mismatch.

couldn't be @rsed booing, if they were trying their best, then would feel bad doin it. But better teams in various sports get booed, and sometimes about 40,000 of 'em.

i did not boo the players,as it goes a lot further than playin staff. but what i did feel the players went wrong was to walk towards us and clap, they should of just walked off they know it was abismal, but you can bet they would of got slated for NOT acknowledging us also.

On that note they were in a no-win situation, but then again they should be used to 'no wins' by now

Booing them after a insulting lack of effort by the collective team (directors, coaching staff and "players") isn't a problem in my book, Just as applauding them when it goes well.
If the players are upset by people booing perhaps a long hard look in the mirror is required, the young uns will remember it and never want to be booed again and the old ones might just think about how they "earned" that money this week.

The team either plays well collectively or bad collectively, otherwise what you have is individuals not a team.

I was far too knackered to take any notice Adi Only parked up at the LSV at 2:56pm after driving back from Liverpool Airport.

Spot on - all too happy to lap it up when things go well, so the same has to apply in situations like today.

don't have a problem with the booing. Suprised chants of "what aload of rubbish" didn't emerge tbh.

To be honest I don't boo myself and never have, but people are entitled to do it. The way things are going there won't be anyone there to boo soon.
