Roosters vs Sharks Match Discussion

[Jacks Fur Coat]

Thank god it's over.

SST and Tupou were our best, the rest were complete crap.

I think they were our best.

The only other mention I'd make was Kane who found his timing and technique with three or four bellringers.

That was my highlight amongst an awful display by the so called premiership favourites.

But he can show them a plan B, if he has one...
This shot from 9 says it all for me. While Flannagan is inspiring his team of hasbeens.. [ATTACH=CONFIG]temp_1468_1433667304990_496[/ATTACH]

Trent just plods along with them. You can see it how interested they are.

Yeh I wish we had Flanagan instead.

Fmd there's been some brainless shit posted on here tonight.

I've been saying for a while that Trent is as much to blame as the players. I'm sure they don't go out there doing whatever they want. They follow his instructions and it seems that when we get in trouble, we don't have a plan B. They bombed and bombed the same player and got nothing out of it. Still kept at it. no imagination.

I don't agree mate. We actually started the game with plenty of intensity with Moa and Jared getting some good metres. So I think Robbo had them up for the game.
When you continually drop the ball, throw forward passes etc, then that's a different story. I have not lost any faith whatsoever in our Coach.

[Rooster_6]

Our halves with the so called structures our coach has us playing is so predictable boring and difficult to watch as our squad is mentally weak when things don't go their way. If not mentally weak then they lack total imagination taught by the coach with 2013 tactics

Our structures and processes are far different to that of 2013, seriously go back and watch a game from 2013.

Our issue was we made 19 errors, stop over analysing it. Our structures were fine when we belted Melbourne a week ago, tonight our structures were irrelevant because we were never in the game. We made 19 errors.

Stop trying to over complicate what was an abomination of a performance.

Made three hit ups though..

[John Corey]

Does anyone else get the feeling Cordner will be playing against the Warriors? I'm just not reacting to this match. I think he has been very average all season. Seems to have lost a lot of his punch in attack and with Gallen back someone has to miss out.

He was good yes, so was JWH too but I felt he was more concerned with putting late hits in then anything else.

[John Corey]

RTS stuffed our season...and the news that Maloney is being shown the door was the final nail in our 2015 'coffin'.

Pump up BB. There is no nail in the coffin. Any team who has the ability to smash Melbourne like we did can win the Comp. we just showed how quickly things can change in a week. (For the worse). We can change things back to normal no probs.

No you fwit! I merely point two different approaches. How the Fark can you inspire a team to get their shit together with a carrott? Get up of the chair and show them. I don't trust in Trent like some brainwashed zombies you get in here. Until he delivers another premiership without a SBW, for me Ricky Stuart was far more successful coach for us than Trent. I will be glad to be wrong but at the moment, it seems like we'll be also rans again. Now go back to your Trent shrine.

Stop making excuses - Robbo has no plan B nor Pearce with his Hail Mary Bombs.

He has been poor. Guerra looked like a very tired man as well today.

Being animated as a coach doesn't get you respect from your players, and if it does it s very short-lived, ask ricky.As I said before, it not like the sharks outplayed us, we just didn't want to win today. With the chances we set up could have scored ten tries tonight.

Yes we did...But what happened today and what happened in round...was it 5? Same crap!. What I am trying to get across is that people solely blame Pearce, Maloney etc... but they do the same bombs, plays that don't get results and more... There is something wrong when players keep doing the same mistakes, like today, and it doesn't change. Maybe I am asking too much to get the team to change during a game. Yes Trent is not responsible for the knockons but he is responsible or the tactics.

I think you are picking the wrong game to come up with that argument mate. It would not have mattered if we had a plan B, plan C, plan Z. When you drop the ball like we did or fail to hold the final pass in a try scoring situation I'm not sure how that can be on the coach. I think from what I saw in the first 5 to 10 minutes he had the boys up mentally. We made plenty of yards.

For me this loss is on the players. You can't win matches with a diabolical completion rate, no matter what plan you go to.

Can't blame that performance on anyone. The only person who can hold his head high is jwh. No one else wanted to have a go. Aubo Jennings toops and rts all need to do more work coming out of our end. Guerra and cordner looked absolutely rooted.

SST & Kane Evans punched hard and defended well for the limited time they were on the field.

Robbo is a very patient and accepting man to keep putting up with unconfident Tupou.

Rocks and diamonds lived up to his reputation today.
