It's a results driven business we are in

2Vs was sacked for finishing in a better position

No accountability at our club right now

I will support Des but this is worse than NE days right now

I think we all know Geoff's sacking was not resulrs driven

2V also had a much better team at his disposal. Look at the 2015 team that was regularly on the park compared to some of the teams we've named this year.

IIRC, 2015 had the likes of Snake, in form Taufua, Matai, Killer, Foran, DCE, Ballin etc. More than half the team had either won a minimum of 1 premiership or played in a Grand Final.

I agree but that's the excuse they used so has to be brought up now.

I know 2V's won't be back and nothing will happen to management.

Oh, the pathos of it!

 

[The Who]

We saw tonight that Harper, The Shoe and Tyfuna are far better players than ones DESpicable has stuck with, such as Parker, Froggy and Tafua. I'm also sure if we were allowed to watch Guaca play that he'd show up Duck and Jetski.
DESpicable has contributed massively to the poor performances by his pig-headed selections.
We have the cattle, he just can't provide the prod.

If I had to watch my captain fail to lead the team to victory from that position, or if I had to watch brad Parker make a simple game look so difficult, or our middle and edges leak like a sieve, id look worse for wear too.

Des isn’t blameless though, we look woefully uncoached. We have no defensive and attacking systems or structures. And haven’t all year

 

[MadMarcus]

Expected to see this...

 

[Ned]

Hugh jackman doesn't look too upset though

 

[NYEagle]

Des Hasler has basically replicated 2018 this year.

Last year he replicated 2017 and went one game better in the finals.

I wonder for the future of this club if we can’t afford to get out of this cycle.

One thing I noticed tonight was that DCE tried to do everything for this team.

DCE is taking it upon himself to run the whole show when we are in these challenging roster situations, but in the end other players suffer because their roles in the team are nullified, thus affecting development of some of the new players in their positions.

I think DCE needs to play his role but take a step back and let some of these new players figure it out, even if they do make mistakes.

We are done for this season. The team has forgotten how to win, butchered it tonight through bad game management when we had a big lead with 12 minutes left. It all stemmed from not dealing with a kick off and we barely saw the ball for the remainder of the game.

How do you suggest the club implements this lack of accountability? We were missing Turbo, Walker, Suli and Fainu from the top shelf... Thomson, Garrick, Tagus from the middle shelf... and Cust, and Elliot from the next.

We had Schuster, Hopoate, Morgan and Funa playing in the backline. They have than less than ten first grade games between them. What happened to the sausage roll eating, couch legends were screaming for these boys to be included in the side months ago?

They are young and Schuster is going to be a very special player. Next year will be awesome! Plenty to be happy about.

Brad Parker And Jorge are not good enough to get a start when everyone is fit, but they will be very decent cover if we aren’t missing the best four players in our backline.

I do understand the emotion....But take pause for a moment.

Oh... we lost Jorge and Schuster during the game as well.

I’d honestly want to know the last time we got possession from an opposition short kickoff.How ****en hard is it.

It's not the players I get what you are saying and I agree with You.

It's management and other club staff who are not being held to account in the same way past staff have that's all.
