+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+xMarki...you may look like an idiot and post like an idiot using only words, expressions and phrases an idiot would use but I won't let it fool me because I know you really are an idiot. Am I the same idiot that is always correct? It was a knockon you cocky poonce. No doubt about it. Why don't you tell us all how good Hawthorn are. Steve, cut the name calling. I could call you names too but we all know you cry like a baby. I'll have to watch it again. Commentators agreed with you but I'll reserve judgement when I watch it again. But I will say this. A pass from Pearce to a second rower just before Smith intercepts, was easily forward and wasnt called while that crummy play looked line ball at best. I cant blame the refs for that call. Would have been reviewed if they scored directly from it. Point is, we allowed them to get to a big lead and it was always going to be tough to pull it back. It's the time where everything little error or ref call becomes crucial. The better teams eliminate this but not putting themselves in the position in the first place. We have to start better we have only started 1-2 games well all year. The cause of the problem is hard to pinpoint, we just seem tentative...and lose the early forward battle. Knights won the first 20 in the forwards, we probably won over 80 mins, the first 20 counted. We still had enough good attacking chances...... Just too many players that aren't 1st graders and others like Hopoate who is slow as a wet week. Still think we should be going better. Napa, Tolman and Jackson shouldn't be the starting middle forwards. Our halves too a while to get into the game. We need a good hooker, but Foran and Cogger should make a good halves combination. I guess Penrith are struggling with a much more talented squad. Newcastle did play fairly well, in particular they defended well. Maybe we should have Holland instead of Brown on the bench, we need some spark late in games.. Cogger isn't a 1st grade half Meninga said and I agree. Cogger was ordinary most of this game but was better the last 2 weeks, he clearly out played Lewis who was going through a patch of bad form. Lewis is a better defender. Still think that if he keeps improving he has potential, he is a natural halfback. But he does need to do a lot better than this game. You are always too kind HD. Cogger isn't quick, ordinary in defence and has a very ordinary long kicking game. Playing him and others like him is why we are crap.

As you say, he is a natural halfback but the difference with Townsend was that you had a Cronulla team that could carry him. We cant afford to carry him right now. I'm actually not too critical of him today - more critical of Foran. Dont think Foran was ready to displace Lewis in this game. We needed him to be ready from the get go. He went missing and we were down 16-0 before we knew it.

+x+xWhen is Napa going to do a hard tackle? Napa has been disappointing, we need Ogen starting. Foran and Napa are coming back from injury but need to do better,. I think Pay should have kept Odgen starting, Napa should have come off the bench until his form demanded a starting spot. This was my point earlier.... Pay knew CHN was out for whatever reason. There was no need to make additional mass changes. Our loss to Manly was fue to a poor start and poor numbering on the left. What does he next? Make another 4 changes because we started poorly again? If so, bye bye Jackson and Foran.

+xOur best play was the double long passes late in game from our 10m that allowed Montoya to make a break and find C Smith. Had he passed to JMK straight away it would have been a try under the posts to level scores. Instead.....an error was made in the tackle to diffuse the situation. Jackson also dropped some key balls in good position to kill our attack. Had CHN been playing instead of Smith we probably score there. In regards to Nancy's criticism of Cogger, he does have a great pass, but needs runners hitting holes. And we have too many nothing plays in the opposition 20, the good teams have a hooker who can spark something, But also halves calling a play....and runners ready to hit holes. The attack is better than the Des era, but needs at lot if work. I think our problems start at 9, JMK is better than Lichaa but is a weaker defender, Brown is a waste of a jersey wash. We don't have anyone near good enough in one of the most important positions, it is hard to win from there...

It's like if we cant get Cameron Smith, we dont make any other effort.

If so, bye bye Jackson and Foran. I think the issue with Holland and Martin in defence is the reason for the change. This game tries were mostly scored on the other side, We need CHN back, if Lewis hits form and Cogger doesn't improve Lewis might get the spot back. If I was coach I would be playing Lewis at 9. I don't think he will make mass changes... Both sides defended well most of this game, we had patches of good attack, but probably more patches of bad attack.

It's like if we cant get Cameron Smith, we dont make any other effort. In defence of JMK (and maybe Lichaa), we dont play like a team that is hungry to run onto the ball for meters. We are flat footed and slow with no decoys. Just about any hooker will look bad. It's why our hookers look better in reserve grade. The attack has much more variation and enthusiasm and puts defence on back foot. This is all Pays problem to fix. I have seen nothing in this thus far.

While Nancy rubbished this point it is true in that Cogger is an old style organising halfback, he is no Ash Taylor or Shaun Johnson, he is the exact opposite. He should keep improving, but willl never be a superstar.

The attack has much more variation and enthusiasm and puts defence on back foot. This is all Pays problem to fix. I have seen nothing in this thus far. Running hookers need fast play the balls, the refs only notice wrestling when we do it. Notice the difference when Ogden, Danny and Sue came on, you need middle forwards that run hard. First week back for Napa, but I only noticed one hard run. Get some hard running and our hookers will look better, but in the opposition 20, none of them know what to do.

Next week could be the battle for the spoon as Panthers v Warriors and Dogs vs Titans.
Two teams will be buried to bottom of table while 2 will advance themselves.
It is absolutely vital we win next week.

The Roosters have maybe 2 possibly 3 players playing first grade that are clearly reserve grade quality players... you can get away with that when you’ve integrated them with quality!
Same goes with Souths.... they possibly have at least 4.... again same as above as Souths have quality across the 1,6,7 & 9.
The Dogs on the other hand have 11 to 12 players right now playing 1st grade that are reserve grade quality players playing... no matter how much sugar coating, playing Lewis, playing Lichaa, playing Martin etc...... we will continue to get the exact same results we’ve gotten the past few years again this year as we go forward until there is a major clean out
Pay or whoever the coach is in the future needs to build a team around the current following players:-
Meaney
Hopoate
Smith
Foran
Lewis
Jackson
CHN
RFM (he should never have been dropped)
Napa
Tolman
Ogden
The rest need to go or take up a spot in reggies....

+xNext week could be the battle for the spoon as Panthers v Warriors and Dogs vs Titans. Two teams will be buried to bottom of table while 2 will advance themselves. It is absolutely vital we win next week. Drop in class, but the Titans have some good players, the main danger is they have a game where everything sticks... We know they can't close out a game, are good in attack, but can be poor in defence, and can make an error. If we get our act together, start well, defend well, some more enterprise in attack and reduce the errors, we should win... We need Dman playing classical guitar in the sheds some the guys come out angry...... We need a forward to hit hard in defence and a hard run in the first 5 mins, someone has to lead by example.

Actually I think we need to build the team brick by brick ... starting with 9... Pick the best 17 each week, sign quality when we can get it ... don't renew reserve graders... We can only get rid of player when we sign someone better, we have guys in our 30, that will not play NRL much this year or next year, they should go for starters. Olive for example.... if Lichaa doesn't improve, he should go, Brown should go, etc

+x+x+x+xThe Roosters have maybe 2 possibly 3 players playing first grade that are clearly reserve grade quality players... you can get away with that when you’ve integrated them with quality! Same goes with Souths.... they possibly have at least 4.... again same as above as Souths have quality across the 1,6,7 & 9. The Dogs on the other hand have 11 to 12 players right now playing 1st grade that are reserve grade quality players playing... no matter how much sugar coating, playing Lewis, playing Lichaa, playing Martin etc...... we will continue to get the exact same results we’ve gotten the past few years again this year as we go forward until there is a major clean out Pay or whoever the coach is in the future needs to build a team around the current following players:- Meaney Hopoate Smith Foran Lewis Jackson CHN RFM (he should never have been dropped) Napa Tolman Ogden The rest need to go or take up a spot in reggies.... Holland Sue Montoya Crichton Lichaa Nu Brown Chris Smith The list above can all go... Jayden O Danny Fualalo (surprised me the past month) Elliott JMK The list above are worth keeping as reggies/possible *SOME* first grade game time Typical post from someone who didn't see the game,,, Sue and Montoya were good. Its typical because come next game or the game after.... the real Suaso Sue & Montoya will reappear I don’t care about one or two or three good games in a season HD..... we need these players..... 1st grade quality players delivering good games EVERY WEEK (Refer to my earlier post) I rest my case your honour..... You mean the post where you said we have 11-12 players that a reserve graders playing firsts and then nominated 10 players to build a team round???... uni of Notre Dib strikes again...

+x+x+xNext week could be the battle for the spoon as Panthers v Warriors and Dogs vs Titans. Two teams will be buried to bottom of table while 2 will advance themselves. It is absolutely vital we win next week. This post just got the warriors across the line... The Mocki strikes again! It was a technical loss, remember the greatest mind in league is always correct...

It is a squad of 30 what we ideally need is :- 1) 5 rep class players 2) 5 above average NRL players. (Spine should all be in this best 10 as should 2 props - that is 6 our of 10.) 3) 5 average but reliable NRL players 4) 5 reliable but ordinary NRL players (can do a job) 5) 6 young kids learning NRL 6) 4 older fringe NRL players, who can mostly do a job, and might have some potential... (anyone not on this list should be punted) Sue & Montoya are in 4) or 6) Our issues are- 5) 6 young kids learning NRL (includes Meaney, Cogger and Lewis) 4) 5 reliable but ordinary NRL players (can do a job) includes - JMK 6) 4 older fringe NRL players, who can mostly do a job - includes Lichaa 1) 5 rep class players - on form, only one currently in that category.... perhaps CHN The big issue is a lack of elite talent and the fact that only one of our spine players is in the top 10. I think from 2) downwards we are not that bad, the hope is that some of good young players will progress. My point is no point in dumping players in 2), 3) unless we can sign someone who can do a better job...in that position. Most of 6) and some of 4) we can let go... it depends on that players form and the available options... Hooker is my recruitment priority, followed by centre,,, We can let the following go:- Holland - probably Sue - possibly Montoya - possibly Lichaa - probably Nu Brown - definitely Chris Smith - possibly Tualau - definitely Olive - definitely Anderson - already gone? It all depends on how much money players want relative to what we think they are worth....

When you look at our squad objectively, including the fact that our spine is mostly young inexperienced players, our position on the table is no fluke...
What we are looking for is signs of progress,,,
It didn't show up in the result, but our defence was better this week, perhaps the best we have defended all year...
Attack was missing CHN but if we are honest when a bit backwards on recent weeks.
A club always has to build it's season on defence, we are coming into round 10 and still working on it...
If the team improves, I'm not overly worried about results / ladder position, we have lots that needs improving...

Yes to a gun 9 Yes to a gun Half.... 6 or 7 Yes to some gun centres.... The biggest YES has to be Support Runners & Faster Defensive Line Speed
