+xWest Ham handing Liverpool their champions league spot.... how nice of them.... Just a bad game, not many this season. A few out injured, forced to play a style that didn't suit. On top of that sloppy errors, players off their game. If the Dogs were having a similar season we would also be 4th, I prefer 4th to last. Last season was similar to the Dogs this season, with a late rally. The coach dumped lazy players, added more speed and improved the existing players. Throw in a good prop or 2 the Dogs can follow the same formula. The West Ham squad is very skinny for the EPL let alone champions league, the fans don't trust management to spend the money and stay out of recruitment. West Ham owners are despised by most of the fans. It is great NRL doesn't have club ownership, in EPL that is another inequity. They are still shooting for Champions league and might make it, but it will be a beggar dining with princes situation.

I think the difference between Hammers and Dogs is that I'm not convinced Baz has made the key changes to rectify our problems. I think he is keeping faith with Flano and Hoppa only because they are the more higher profile players. I personally think he has given them way too much latitude. Hope they repay him today otherwise I reckon even HE will feel he can no longer carry them.

Hope they repay him today otherwise I reckon even HE will feel he can no longer carry them. What I'm hopping for at the Dogs is what the Hammers now have, a team of high work rate players who put in and usally don't make too many dumb mistakes. On top of that 1-2 class players who can set up and take opportunities. One or 2 lazy or dumb players who turn over posession cheaply and miss their defensive assignment really annoy teammates and sap team morale. The Hammers experience get getting rid of the duds really turned the team around. My only concern with Baz is similar to yours, he needs to weed out the duds, make tough decisions and set standards. The new rules mean teams that don't work hard and work together in defence will always have a score put on them. I am prepared to be patient and gjve Baz every chance, we need to. I now think that we should try the Fox at fullback, he is a bigger body these days and still fast. We need to see how he is positionally and under the high ball, he played some footy in the halves.

+x+x+xFrom a players perspective what's at Belmore that is so attractive??? The place looks like a hole.. There's distinction's that draw players to certain clubs we need to lift to sustain our position!Time for a refab!! Tha majority is out of sight, inside the grandstand which was gutted and re-furnished and is accepted as having one of, if not the, best facilities in the League. It has a high altitude chamber ffs. A full size training field of which we are the primary and priority residents, and plenty of secure parking for the residents. And some of the best coffee and sandwich shops in suburbia.
Don’t let the postcards fool you, if it’s not the envy of the league, it’s the envy of most. All good to have a great facility but if the players aren’t playing there it probably doesn’t feel like home to them. And it’s never going to be built into a BankWest because Of the parking, railway snd size issues.
A new stadium in Liverpool is the dream and looks possible with the state government putting money into stadiums. Let’s hope we can push for that and become the primary residents there. The population of the area is growing at an enormous rate and the junior base is huge. pass on that thx

That is more like it.
Hopefully that will settle the players nerves.

2 weeks of not being held scoreless - that alone is a big improvement.

+xBoth sides down on confidence, this game is there for the taking. We’ve had more than enough chances, 6 again calls go our way...... but and our attack is atrocious! We should at least be up by 12 DWZ has played well, Cotric more involved.... that’s probably the highlight

Effort side is ok, even Napa ran hard.
Hoppa seems slow in all aspects, he used to be a good passer, we had some opportunities when a quick pass would have been handy.
