Thought it was Reece L, with England coming across. Also I thought it looked like a forward pass to McShane, but he still should have been caught.

It was Reece bjb was on the floor after slipping trying to catch a poor pass

We can't even choose the right bloke to kick the conversions!

He'd have probably knocked it down and given them another set. I came out at 16-4 so, TF, I missed the total humiliation.

To be fair when he went for the intercept we were outnumbered outside and they would probably had scored if he didn’t go for it.

I still think however it’s time for MCB to get a chance again

Re: Poor Poor Poor : Fri Apr 27, 2018 9:35 pm  

7 losses in the last 8 games and only scoring 2 tries in the last 2 games. This is beyond a joke now, we're not even competing in the losses any more. We offer no attacking threat what so ever. I agree, I can't really see where the next win will come from and we look like we'll be lucky to make the MPG with the strength in the championship this year

Re: Poor Poor Poor : Fri Apr 27, 2018 9:39 pm  

They can't even get the basics right at the moment, poor passing and poor catching, constant knock-ons, lazy tackling giving away penalties, generally poor kicking. There doesn't seem to be any cohesion or teamwork going on

Felt sorry for Annakin. Looked a bad one

Re: Poor Poor Poor : Fri Apr 27, 2018 9:47 pm  

The effort was there but the execution was dire. He seems to dodge criticism but for me Miller has been poor for a while now, he just doesn’t seem to be linking up particularly well with anyone. The backs are getting slow ball and his one get out move seems to be chuck it to Tupou and hope he can bulldoze through. Well teams are wise to this and he needs to expand his repertoire. We need to find some cohesion from somewhere, although a couple of under-performing forwards could do with putting a better shift in to give a better platform.

We won’t be in the middle 8’s but 7th is likely the best we can hope for. Given all the talk of this being our best ever squad that will be disappointing in my book.

Re: Poor Poor Poor : Fri Apr 27, 2018 9:51 pm  

So we are 4 points clear of 9th and 3 points behind the Whinos!
Wish some people would stop moaning and not expect us to be competing with the top 4 after one good season.
The positive out of tonight was that PP showed what he is capable of.
And there is no way we will be in the MPG.

I thought half time came too early for us, we could have done with the full set of 6 after the 40-20 as I think we had another score in us.

The game went when our try was disallowed in the second half. It wasn't an obstruction in any way, shape or form. It was a blatantly poor defensive read by the Cas defender who went for the dummy runner instead of the ball. There was a similar incident in the disallowed Cas try but the video ref didn't seem to be bothered, he just went to see if the Cas player was in touch.

I thought we looked leader-less. Nobody seemed to be in charge. In fact it took BJB coming off the wing to run a few up the middle to make it look like we had anyone making a go of it.

Pauli Pauli needed that game time but we could do with Fifita back too.

Cas were easily the better team on the night but I don't think they were 20 points better.
