Stephen Kearney deserves this.

 

[Jordan G]

Too dumb to win. That is all.

 

[Beastmode]

8 in a row

The choke was in full effect today

Hopeless mofo's

 

[AlexM]

Fuck.

 

[Raw Power]

Too dumb to win. That is all.

Totally agree... Our team has NO FRIGGEN BRAINS

 

[AlexM]

I really liked Fusitua though. Dripping in skill.
Has been quiet , today he was on fire.

dudes been solid all year, just wasnt getting any ball

 

[Lets Gone]

how fuckin hard is it? Ken and Kata why the fuck do you run outside.

 

[leaguejunkie]

Warrior's proving that they still don't have a dogs arse of an idea how to close out a game.

Hingano should've never been given the ball to kick off.

Kata should've never passed that ball to Maumalo in extra time.

This was our game to lose and we did just that.

 

[Ranger]

We don't need explosiveness or freak athleticism, just some footy brains and we would have a few more wins this season

 

[Jordan G]

The moment we went up by 7 our defense went completely passive and we were clock watching.

Don't even get me started on Kata and Maumalo. That edge is a disaster.

 

[Tedster]

ha - kato and maumalo - dumb and dumber at the end -all good though, c u in next weeks team aye

 

[AlexM]

It will be an awesome video session lol. here is where you lost the game....

 

[demco]

to many jungle bunnies in this team with no brains

Stephen Kearney deserves this.

Last week on NRL360 they were talking about how dumb the Canberra players are. They put it down to the strict patterns they are being taught to play. Nobody is taught to THINK!!!

If there was ever a reason for me to give up on Kearney and his process it was the game tonight. What is the most important thing before you kick off with two minutes to go. DON'T KICK THE BALL TOO FAR. So what does Hingano do??? Heyzeuss spare me.

Golden point and you are following up on a brilliant break by Fusitua. Kata passes the ball to Maumolo on the touchline, when he didn't need to. WHAT WAS HE THINKING FFS???

The kid isn't dumb, neither is Hingano, but Kearney is teaching them not to think for themselves and this process is seriously affecting them.

Sorry Steve, you are a great forward skills coach, but not a head coach. Time for everybody to face the facts, because you are not going to change. This club is going nowhere with your PROCESS.

I wish I could forget today's game like the Warriors forgot about the wind in the second half...

 

[Stalefish540]

Well I can't call kata/maumalo out on that play really. When the glorified passenger Foran who has been just taking prop hitups the 80mins prior decides to throw a cutout ball to an edge on the 4th on a field goal set when he should have dug in. Fuck foran, get him out of this club already. Used to love the bloke, now I can't stand him

 

[drunk_monk]

That was brutal. I do t want to go into the off-season on 9 losses on a row.

Manly did a great job to win that but faaaark we were so close.

At least we lost in the last minutes I stead of 20 minutes I to the first 20 I guess.

 

[PNG Kiwi]

Yes a predictable loss, for the Warriors and McGregor. At least McGregor put on a show.

Almost agree despite not having a great team SK has not extracted the best from them, I am certain he can extract 9 in a row, no mean feat and who knows if he follows the process next year go for a record losing streak for the club.

Like most here almost don't care anymore. Keep repeating what you did yesterday and expect different results, bla bla bla
