Time to start polishing the Spoon

 

[Fearmuss]

We are never going to be competitive without support running: to give space to our forwards, to capitalise on breaks.

FO Kearney.

Quickly Kodi it's not too late to backflip on the contract, I think you still have a few days up your sleeve to save your career from drowning at the Warriors.

Get the first flight out, right now!!!

 

[wallacenz]

disappointing after last week, they looked better with Harris in the halves running the ball like a forward

 

[jonno]

Came out flat, finished flat.

Just pathetic.

Sack the lot of them.

 

[Beastmode]

rubbish performance.

I think you could have stopped your comment straight after the word competitive.

Actually I really like the FO Kearney bit at the end though...

 

[ryno]

Fuck this team, I’m out for awhile

 

[MXRecord]

Pathetic performance by a pathetic team. Kearney, you must go!!

 

[demco]

total crap glad i stopped going to games over 10 years ago to save my money instead of suffering this crap team

 

[DallyM]

cant wait to see where we sit on the ladder

 

[demco]

here comes the wodden spoon

 

[j-bob]

Burn that shit hole down.

Limp dick pathetic fucking excuse for a football team.

I am so fucking over them.

 

[HornbyBrown]

Pathetic and all starts up front with our forwards, Kodi doesn’t fix our problems

 

[davo]

Absolutely woeful,out manoeuvred, lack lustre, slow and easily contained. Green is dreadful, predictable and with a weak pass..bloody rabble..

 

[Vancent]

This fucking team are actually scared of winning.

We’ll nearly beat the good teams one week and not look like beating the easy ones the following week.

It’s not about whether they can or not - they’re just fucking scared to.

From the Coach right through to the Jnrs - they have an issue with winning.

After 25yrs of this shit - I can’t see it ever changing, we are serial fucking losers.

 

[Warrior#214]

Came out flat, finished flat.

Just pathetic.

Sack the lot of them.

So the ‘flat’ thing. Is it an issue with the coach or the captain. How does a team like that of professional players turn up for a relatively crucial game and collectively all just dial in a half ass effort like that?

I think it’s this idea that they aren’t driven by winning and don’t fear losing. Makes no difference to this playing group if they win or lose. And that’s an issue with the coach.

Imma jump over to the SK thread now and flame the Mook-tard!

 

[Tracer Fire]

We're only about a third of the way through the 2019 competition, and the way the team is playing it is going to be a very loooooong season and painful to watch.

 

[Guvna Mac]

Out passioned and out enthused, no line speed and no cohesion in attack not exactly a recipe for success. Like a few others have already mentioned its time to take a break from this team. Hate feeling like shit every weekend.
