Agreed Fluff. Orford just ****s things up way to often for it to be a 'once off'. Are we grooming a better option? Is one coming up through the grades? For the moment, Burns at 5/8, Lyon at centre for his defense as much as anything else. And while I'm at it, what is it with Orfords pathetic kicks for touch that float all off ten metres. Surely Lyon has a better punt in him. Christ.

Neuman wasnt to blame. When your inside man is constantly being drawn inside (Orford) it makes the centre's job extremely difficult. Stay outside and they score inside you, come in and they score outside.
We definitely had a hangover from the Storm game and we seemed very disorganised and lacked composure. The late changes wouldnt have helped.
Not too unhappy about the game, the Panthers played extremely well and deserved the win. They would have troubled most sides with their attack and defense tonight.
The break followed by the mixos will put us back on track.

Im a great deal more disapponited in you pack of wankers than the team. There were heaps of positives from tonight. **** me, you all have pea hearts and small dicks for mindsets. A loss sends you all into convulsions and the inevitable blame game as if you were children denied a supermarket chocolate.
I cant tell you how much (Garts aside) i am ashamed of even conversing with you lot. Wake up to yourselves and watch the game again without the BS win at all costs, emotional bias.

i suppose the only thing that could be said is if mattai was out there at least you would of known 1 of 2 things would have happened with those couple of tries either he would have snapped the runner in half with a huge hit or left an even bigger hole for them to run through.
DSM5, i see we agree on our compressed defensive structure being an issue on the outside men.
Now i will pose a question for you, would you agree that 1 of your main problems with Matai, running in out of the line to hit an attacker, is a lot to do with this structure we continue to use that puts a lot of pressure on Matai/Robertson ?
When you have a 3 on 2 outwide, you have 2 options, come in to try and stop it dead, or keep sliding and rely on an inside man to get there. Matai uses the 1st option with reasonable success, and Neumann just didnt have the experience or confidence to take that option, so went for option 2 and was hung out to dry all round

Fess up Wheel how many did you have last night ? :lol:
Kiwi, you're probably right in that Matai at least has some playing knowledge of his inside men unlike Neumann. My assessment of the game is that we may have won it if Matai had of been on the park, maybe. He would certainly have added some grunt runing the ball out from our line which was missing last night and may have barged over when Stewart went for those long lateral runs near their line. Lots of mays. Where was the superstar?
