Nobody has played well

This has to be the worst performance of the season so far and that's saying something considering what we have served up this season.
Absolutely clueless and haven't got anywhere near to scoring a try

Utter tripe.


Ref was awful.

Isa lost the plot and Bateman is shockingly bad.

I’d say this is the worst I’ve seen since the end of the noble times

This is the end of the season for us, the only way is down the table with Lam in charge

I agree. But I may be controversial here, but I don’t think all these so called brilliant youngsters of ours are as good as we would like to think.
Partington: Tries hard, not big enough, never looks like breaking a tackle.
Smithies: exactly the same.
Byrne: big enough, just not good enough.
On top of this, Isa, Farrell, and Bateman are not exactly huge, and we come back to the same problem we have had for ages.
Backs can’t do anything behind a pack that’s is getting slaughtered week in week out.
The 2 props we have signed from the NRL can’t arrive soon enough.

Think scully summed it up - they aren’t ready yet they need senior players around them

I’ve always said that about our youngsters, they give their all but not sure if there anything special, shorrocks and Pearce Paul are best of the bunch for me.
In their defence though a better coach wouldn’t of thrown them to the lions like Lam has.

I’ve said for a while we don’t know if these young ones are any good I think a fair few aren’t but I love to be proven wrong but will I be?
