Well that was my impression of the very disappointing effort put in against the Panthers.
We are not going to win many games giving away 60% of the ball, and playing 70% of the game in our own half.
Contrary to the popular theme around here,I thought our Props put in their best effort so far in this game, against a big pack like Penrith. But the weight of possession and poor field position just told in the end.
They were let down by poor handling and passing from the backs, and an absolutely shocking kicking game and no communication. no plan.
How ****ing hard is it to hold the ball, get to your kick and get down field to put some pressure on?
I saw it like this.
Carney did ok under extreme pressure. I want him to stay FB.
Mini is not the player he once was, but the opportunities are supposed to be created inside him, He and Perro did ok.
Graham and SKD played ok, again with limited opportunities.
Pearce was poor, Anasta even worse......they have no combination, I think there is a major problem there. If Anasta is to stay 5/8 then he has to run to the line, and PASS the ball....his kicks were disgusting, pathetic in fact.
I hear so many wraps for Pearce.....Im sure he has ability, but today he was poor. Where was he as first receiver? and where was he on 5th tackle?
Our passing from dummy half was poor, and how come we had forwards as first receiver, as I said, we have no leader, and no plan.
Ofcourse they were all flat from having to do so much defence, but that was a problem they created for themselves by the things ive mentioned before.
Myles tried his guts out......and Maubs was fine, but the other backrowers were very average.
Overall a very poor effort.
My sugestions are
Anasta has to step down as Captain, Id give that to Myles.
Ryles has to start when he is fit, he was playing injured but still put in.
Pearce has to take more control as first receiver.
Anasta has to run the ball and pass it....no kicking.
