After watching the game on Saturday I realised that nothing had changed from last year.
- Same game plan
- No penetration in attack (very predicatable)
- Poor Kicking game
- Poor Completion rate
- Ill discipline ( eg Kingy & Rose penalities )
- Injuries to key players
- Lack of a experienced Half back
- Overated & average palyers (Foran, Williams, Rose , Mauro, DCE)
Yes I know it was the first game of the season but really what has changed !
I am not doubting their committment but realistically we dont have the quality or the ability to change our game to suit the situation.
It was so predictable as soon as Melbourne got in front I knew that was it. I was with a mate and after the Sorm scored their second try I said to him "its all over"
It's difficult to admit but we all know the result this week against the Roosters. We will get flogged especially without Lyon (our best & most consistent player).
In relation to DCE my opinion has not changed since I saw him in the 20's two years ago, I wasn't impressed then and he did nothing on the weekend to suggest he is the No 7 we are looking for. People on this forum who beleive he will provide the direction in attack and kicking game we have been looking for are in denial and only fooling themselves..
People need to take a reality check big time We have no hope of winning this comp and will be very very lucky to finish in the top 10. Harsh but true !!
