  • Robbo in the Press Conference

    I couldn't bare to watch the presser last night so I just watched it today.

    I got to say no matter how angry I am, watching Robbo speak provides me with such hope and optimism.

    He accepted full responsibility of not having the answers and not being able to get the players to gel.

    He has identified the issues and it isn't for pack of trying but at the moment it just isn't happening.

    There has been seasons when he has felt the same such as 2014 and 2018 and the only way through it is effort but he needs to find the answers for his players soon.

    Trust in Trent!

    Easts for life!

    He needs to take responsibility as it's a problem he has created.

    I know people will say it's just a number playing in 6 or 7 but it also a mental thing as people bang on about how the 7 runs the team and your team lives or dies on how you number 7 performs.

    Putting Keary back in the 6 jumper maybe just what the doctor ordered in relieving this pressure of wearing the number 7.

    Fittler even though playing 6 was the dominant half but this didn't stop Lam/Wing/Finch from playing -running/passing/kicking etc - they would work it out.

    Keary can play that Fittler role and Walker play similar to Adrian Lam/Wing/Finch

      I'm trying to decipher this.

      So you want Lam 6 & Walker 7...but to play like Brett Finch?

          No I think he wants Keary to play at 6 and Walker 7 so Lam can play the Fittler role and Walker can play like Lam. Or was it Finch? Wingy is in there somewhere too.

          Makes perfect sense to me

              Comparing Lam to Fitter. It’s like scoring a date with Elle and Magda Szubanski rocks up.

                I think I've got it....just replace Lam with Keary at the start of the Kings last sentence.

                That's what I think he meant....I think.

                  as fans we've got no idea of the relationship that robbo has built with the team. seems like it's one based on honesty and support and robbo's presser was in character. there's no guarantee that the magic will continue to work but robbo's no flash in the pan and the team's in good hands.

                      I thought some people would be up in arms - Lam!!!!

                      Changed it back to Keary

                      Keary can play that Fittler role and Walker play similar to Lam/Wing/Finch

                          Lam made breaks last season.
                          Lam can tackle well.
                          He should be offered a new contract...as we will need him if we get injuries.
                          Watson is already out injured.
                          Keary is one tackle from disaster.
                          Lam can play 6, 7, 3, 4, 1, 2, 9, 5, and 13 at a pinch.

                            Lam can play 6, 7 and 9 at a decent standard.

                              Never understood the grief over Lam, not a superstar, good reliable half, him and Walker could be gangbusters.
