Surely you don't recruit players to not play them.

North will be fine, a win this week and they'll be on their way again.

We were horrible, not sure where that leaves Port with 3 pretty uninspiring home games so far.

WTF Bailey Scott got dropped I have no idea.

Some good banter with some Port fans, and who would have thought Carey would be a red seat in the members type of guy? :lol: ;)

Leaves us 6th-12th as I expected, but you can't do anymore than win at home and it's 3 from 3 at home and we've pinched one on the road already.

Junk time aside, 40 points up with 10 minutes to go it was game over, I don't like how we struggle to swing momentum back to us but as I said in my review in the Port thread it's not just Port struggling to counter sides getting a run on.
If you want to go quickly, go alone.

If you want to go far, go together.

2/3 at home

I was getting bloody frustrated how slow we moved the ball when we won it across half back, I looked ahead and it was all one on ones so it wasn't as if there was no one to kick it to, when we exposed you in the last 1/4 we moved the ball quickly unsurprisingly.

We should’ve been in front at qtr time but then we’re lucky not to be further behind at the main break.
As discussed on the night, the Bailey Scott omission has to have more to it than form. Too one dimensional going forward, they either kick it Brown when he’s double or triple teamed or when he does get a one on one, it was kicked to the defenders advantage.
I’d like to see them leave Thomas one out & let him use his pace & skill.

Surely Brad Scott grows some testicles and walks away, 10 years and going backwards.
Sydney are shit and we are worse.
Last night should have been 4 points in the kitty.
Don't want to hear Goldy should have got a free kick, that is just BS.
Side should never have been in the position it was if it was any good.
FO Scott NOW.

You're sacked but we'll give you half of next years money.

Ok.
