Well, that's it.Â
Three rounds and we can kiss top 4 good bye.Â
You can't milk 32 points against the rabbits and think you can make top 4. And we all know if you don't make top 4, then that's the season.Â
Yes, we didn't have Brett & yes, we didn't have Wolfman, but hey, if that's all it takes to lose a game to a team that will also not make the top 4, then the season is over!!
For all those saying that we put up a good fight, I'm afraid you are talking through your shorts! If it wasn't for no idea, you wouldn't have any idea.Â
I have supported this team for 40+ years and no one is more passionate about the maroon & white than I am. However, tonight's performance shows me that 2011 is NOT the year.Â
Kite was absent, AGAIN. Kingy had ANOTHER off night. Ballin was non-existant. Nulla-who - what a waste! OTNOW lived up to his reputation of one on, one off.Â
Thanks God for Cherry-Evans & Foran!
Get your heads out of the sand folks - if you want to make the top 4 (the only way to win the comp), you cannot leak 32 points against a team that should finish behind us this year!
Yes, we were missing big George - big deal!! They were missing arguably their best player in Sam Burgess. Yes, we were missing Brett, but hey, that may be the case for more games than not through the season -what then??!!
Don't talk to me about the "up & comers"!! NOW is the time you win games that ensure you make the top 4. Top 8 will not win the comp - must finish in top 4.Â
I have one maroon eye and one white eye like all of you, but you cannot leak 32 points against an average team (and yes, they are an average team!) and expect to finish top 4.Â
We do not have the depth this year to compete with the top 4. We will win our fair share and have some "glory days", but if tonight's effort in defence is typical against some tough competition, then we have a long year ahead!!
