This is an embarrassing performance.

Re: Squad for HKR Saturday : Sat Feb 18, 2023 2:22 pm  

Poor, looking like an opening game loss

Re: Squad for HKR Saturday : Sat Feb 18, 2023 2:23 pm  

Absolute garbage. Iv'e been waiting 4 or 5 months to witness the 'back to usual' rubbish. I have never known a side be so ill disciplined and it's been going on ever since Madge left. Nobody has the ability (or balls) to rein them in. No Grand Final win this year.

Wardle anonymous also KPP offered nothing in the first half, clearly been given a rocket at half time to get into the game.

Keep digging - a guy who's been responsible for three opposition scores is "outstanding" and a lad who's bagged one is anonymous.

This game as gone pathetic if thats 10 mins in the bin

Re: Squad for HKR Saturday : Sat Feb 18, 2023 2:26 pm  

That wasn't a yellow and there was nothing wrong with the Smith tackle. How long are we going to have to suffer these incompetent refs?

Re: Squad for HKR Saturday : Sat Feb 18, 2023 2:27 pm  

Smith tackle was for offside, not the tackle itself.

Agreed it wasn't a yellow for Smithies IMO, but raising the elbow for some reason probably went against him.

The work rate of KPP is never high.
King having a poor debut.
Don’t think we will turn this around.

Been far too loose in many areas. When you go in to an atmosphere like this, against a side determined to start fast for a new coach, you’ve got to be disciplined and keep errors low. We’ve been everything you can’t afford to be.

I’m not digging he was out only back making meters in the first half.

I enjoy the fact you were waiting for me to comment by the way. Seems like I’m living rent free in your head.

In regards the rest of the game. Very poor. Getting bullied all over the park and our only response is to give away niggling penalties.

Great defensive effort this far in the second half by King, trying to offload in his carry though has really hurt us.
