It won't work because we don't have the contested skills, but at least it will expose the spuds who reckon 80% on the gas is good enough.

You've got to start somewhere.


"The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break in the game. Every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'

Those spuds have already been exposed the past few weeks. A certain coach just doesn't have the stones to drop them.

Nobots who can't hit a target :evil:

Here's an idea!


Don;t kick it backwards every time we get a free kick in the backline.

I wish they would bring in the kick backwards rule from pre season a few years ago - then we might stop doing it.

We are still in this so many times, and keep gifting it to the opposition with stupid things like that.

I'm fed the hell up with it!

Everyone is saying it without really saying it.
The coach is the be all and end all. Time to look at the coach.
What the hell is going on. He must be held accountable.
In Ross we trust? I'm not sure any more.

No, just in this game......

I am a fan of the zone, and coach it.......however without confidence in each other and discipline, it becomes an excuse to plat off you man and trail to the ball...

And with the current fwd set up, we CANNOT win....with nick playing on two, renders our best player useless....
