Yet another game at Giants Stadium we should have won. Blew it.
Yep that's 3 out the last 4 we should have won up there and we have blown every one due to our own incompetence. Tonight takes the cake. Gianst flew the white flag in the last quarter and a half and we were too inept to take advantage.

6.14 says everything to me. A team of bananas

When was the last clean entry into the forward line without our talls being mobbed by 4 backmen.

Lynch misses, Shai misses 2 easy ones, Marlion Misses, Higgins misses amongst others.

Thats where we lost the game.

Gutted just pissed 4 points and 2nd spot down the drain with 3 tough games to come.

Agree. Kicking for goal was putrid.

It's not even the kicking into the fwd 50 that is the issue. It is the fact we have zero presence once the ball isn't marked. Was our strength with Rioli, Butler and Castagna sweeping everything that wasn't marked. Now, if we don't mark it the ball is easily swept out.

Wasted that one. It could really haunt us in a short season. Toby Greene was absolute class.

Tommy and Jack combination just not working.
Neither are strong in the air at the moment.
CCJ needed desperately. We are too easy to defend.

Just undermanned. An insipid North is one thing, but can’t expect young players to show poise beyond their years under pressure.
No way mate. We should have won regardless. Dominated the second quarter and also the last quarter and a half. Complete ineptitude in our forward line and horrendous skill level cost us the game.

What an absoute disgrace... 6 goals 14. Dont deserve to win with that garbage. Its back to the Tigers of old. Crap return for all the hard work. They shud be totally embarrassed and apologise to the faithful who bought memberships. Hell i am angry about this.
Slight overreaction here Perc.
It was disappointing but not embarrassing.
One bloke beat us Green
