I’ll start it.. F#%k you Warriors! Useless pricks! Spoil my damn weekend!

 

[Draw and Pass]

Just saw the score. What the fuck happened?

 

[Lance155]

It hurts knowing that this can still happen. First Melbourne and now the Roosters

 

[Tyrael]

This was bad. Right from the start they were bad. Not playing to the conditions. Jazz horrible all game. Pretty much all the backs were useless except Roger Tuivasa-Sheck.

 

[Stone]

That was worse than the Anzac Day loss

Playing at home

Too many errors

Weak defense

Poor long range kicking

Impotent attack

Rorters didn't win that match ... Warriors handed it to them in a silver platter

Hurry back please Shaun Johnson & Issac Luke

 

[jsmooove]

outworked and out muscled by the roosters forwards. there is nothing else to that game

they were smart by slowing the ruck down and not allowing us to play.

oh and we are horrible on big occasions or any type of ceremonies pre game

 

[jonno]

No pride until the last 5 mins of the game.

Needed to see that in the first 5 mins.

No pride until the last 5 mins of the game.

Needed to see that in the first 5 mins.

The last 5 minutes just summed up how much of a farce the game became. Warriors were awful, Roosters nearly as bad and the refs were completely inept and had no control.

outworked and out muscled

....and out of ideas on attack

 

[drunk_monk]

We lost it, so be it.

Can't help but be salty with the shut the Roosters did and how much they got away with.

If they lost a player for the first shoulder charge, and some of the other grubby shit, game coulda been very different.

Them getting away with it can't have helped the Warriors mind sets.

The Roosters were completely underwhelming and gave us a hiding. This loss says more about us than it does about them.

I had no issue with the back 3, they did a pretty decent job apart from a couple of errors caused by issues inside them. Roger Tuivasa-Sheck definitely our best on field.

The centres were both poor. Hiku can usually be relied upon with quick feet and hands but really he was a muppet tonight and Latrell, who I believe is enormously over-rated, had a field day.
Kata doesn't have a lot to offer really. D isn't bad but so one dimensional on attack.

Green tried hard but looked out of sorts... dummy half service to him wasn't great and his accuracy with attacking kicks was substandard.
Lino was very poor. He looks to me like a genuine front runner. On a good day where everything is going well he can look a million dollars. Today he looked like he owed us money.

I thought on the whole the forwards didn't go too badly. The starting front row were good but Lisone and to a lesser degree, Gavet off the bench struggled to add anything. Lisone is another in the Lino category. When it is all roses he is the man. When the shit is going down he drops nuts.

Lawton is a good footballer and I like him. Heis a quality 14 in my opinion. I do not like his floaty, Gary Freeman-esque passing style. Spiral pass boy, learn it, use it and put that other shit away.

Jazz... it has all been said. I get it - energy, mobility, versatility. It is just that he has not shown the necessary concentration, consistency and skill to be playing as much and in the areas he is.
If we don't have a better option then we are kinda fucked because a team playing Jazz Tevaga as many minutes as we are is not going to win many games.
I'm sure he tries his fucking heart out... but so would bruce but that doesn't mean I want him playing 50mins for this team.

Shit performance, but what really grates is that the Roosters were unimpressive in towelling us up.

I'm going to go slam my balls in a drawer to feel better.

 

[ShaunJohnson7]

Bloody abysmal. Worst performance of the season and very ugly to watch.

Jazz Tevaga shouldn't be anywhere near our 17 moving forward he is so bad, same with Sam Lisone. Those two need to go......now.

 

[jonno]

It's time for some of these guys to grow the fuck up. If they can't keep fighting for victory just because of a couple of bad calls they've got no business being in First Grade.

Drink a cup of concrete and get on with it already. Life's too short to be a crybaby.

 

[jsmooove]

....and out of ideas on attack

to a degree. we couldnt get quick play the balls which means we cant get a roll on and get that retreating defense and have those holes open up.

the biggest concern for me is post contact meters. when a bloke hits our line how much we let them continue running. we got a huge problem with putting a bloke on the ground and keeping him there.

 

[leaguejunkie]

Do we have any more big occasion games left in the league calendar? Might as well put those games down as an L as we can't seem to get up for them.

What does it take for these guys to fire up? All week the Roosters were laying down the gauntlet to our lot and when the time comes to play, aside from the last 5 minutes and one solitary defensive set in the first half, we drop our nuts and let the Roosters run all over us. Cmon guys, grow a fucking pair.

 

[Ranger]

I thought all the articles written after the Storm loss about the Warriors premiership chances were either knee-jerk or unfair but they probably apply after this loss.

We're not ready but that doesn't mean were not going to have a successful season compared to the last few.

 

[Billy Teets James]

When they smash us, Have a fucking go back! It took Mannering Junior(Lawton) to get up and have a how's your father with them.

Gavet is suppose to be our enforcer?
He hasn't done shit all year.
I'm sick of Lisone. Brings absolutely nothing.
Soft as shit forwards.
Mannering , Harris & Bunty are excused from that tag as they are our work horses. Mannering doesn't do much in attack. And he is picked on by some on here for being just a tackling machine and not much else. At least his standards never drop, And he never gives up.

You get what you see , Game in, Game out.

The rest? Hmmmm.......

Was expecting the angry birds Gavet & Lisone to square up after our halves were getting laid out with cheap shots.

No. They only wanting to lay each other.

Finger your bum holes boys. That was shit.

 

[Makasene]

Ceremonies...

Straight up. Pre game ceremony, we're gonna lose

 

[rugged]

Two things that really annoyed me, the ref let them away with the shoulder charges and so did our forwards. With the way they were lining us up we should have boiled over a lot quicker.

I am not sure we are going to be top 4 material, but if we can finish 6th that woudl still be a far better year than we picked
