Yeah I'm a long term supporter and this has been the hard couple of years. Watching Thaiday play like shit at prop (not much better out wide but I'll give him the benefit of the shoulder injury last year), Reed going very averagely in the centers (would love to give Kahu a run in there, or push...
Jesus christ mate, calm down. Welcome to the incredible world of hyperbole.
All I said was, I'm not surprised they stuck with the same team. I thought it was pretty obvious I was joking about the posters that come in and say "this is the team I want this weekend" with 10 changes.
I'm all up...
People round here want a 40 man squad rotated daily... Miss a tackle at prop? Straight to the centers! Average game in the centers? Bench spot to relieve a second rower! Get some new local high school hero in to the team at the cost of a 100 game first grader...
Thank christ the weekly team...
No surprise there. Happy to see that team line up for another week. A clean out would have been outrageous after one round.
Fingers crossed for Hala to start killing it in Q Cup. I really think we're missing a damaging impact prop. Want Kahu/Bond/Berryman to start putting some serious pressure...
Pretty simple, we were way, way, way our muscled from the get go. How often did a tackle by cherry evans and friends on someone like Glenn end in us being pushed back a few metres. It was a one way street the entire game. McCullough's inability to get us moving forward is getting to be a real...
I wasn't that unhappy with the Warriors trial. I thought we looked better than last year in attack (even before prince was on) and we were very unlucky not to score a couple of tries in there. Couple of slow starters coming back from injury, but overall, there was plenty there to work with this...
Very happy with the team. Hoffman isn't a fullback and Norman isn't good enough in the halves. Actually like Hannant off the bench, really want him to reclaim a bit of form and pushing for a starting spot might do just that. Gilletes trial form earned him a starting spot and very glad Hook could...
I think Hoffman could make a great center and honestly believe it is his position. We need a fullback with a little 5/8 in him. Look at our highlights with Hunt at the back, so many tries went through his hands. I like a lot about Hoffmans game but I have always thought he misses that timing in...
Confirmation Copley is out for the season...

Same as many people, Dad supported them. Used to go to plenty of games in the early 90s aged 7 or so. Couple of premierships when I was just learning the game probably went a long way in securing me as a life long fan... Dipped out of it a bit in 2003-2004 when I turned 18 etc but have been...
I've got myself a full membership for the first time. I've been saying I will every year for the last 6 years or so and just never have. I usually only make 3 or 4 games a season so I'm looking forward to a full season of live home games.
Hoffman has never really been gun in the opposition half though. It has been a noticeable gap in our attack over the last couple of years. Watch some compilations like these:

We were monstered in the forwards. I'm not surprised our backs don't have much to work with when our forwards are getting run over like they are in the last couple of months. I keep saying we need our forwards to go forward and make meters. The best we have looked is when Hannant and Petro were...
I'd certainly like a lot more in attack. No doubting that. It was more a comment on how people are continuously surprised with the team they name. You're 100% right about Hoffman, but I'm not surprised at all they're going back to the combination they had at the start of the year. Oh for a...
I think the point is that this spine was in slump city and everyone is hoping they start playing like the start of the year where they average 25 odd points a game. No one is of the impression we have been great over the last couple of months, no one was has ever said that and certainly no one...
One million percent. This is the thing I say about Cronk all the time. He is an excellent player, no doubt, but having the defence know that Billy Slater is ready for an attacking raid either side of him gives him so much to work with. That little bit out doubt in the defensive line about not...
