Rd 12 vs Roosters

[yourhero]

The Roosters should be leading by 20+. Their inability to close out a few opportunities is the only reason we even appear to be in this game.

Forwards not making any metres.
Sloppy hands.
No line speed in defence whatsoever.
Allowing offloads every second tackle.
Slow play the balls (Roosters crowding every play doesn't help).
No set plays in sight.
Poor kicking options.

Just overall infuriating to watch.

Really disappointed in Mann tonight. Head seems elsewhere. Not sure what we do if he continues to play this way.

[KingHoweofIsrael]

Yeah. .. letting them get so many offloads is killing us. .. especially if rts gets the ball in broken play. ... he's a freak. .

Forwards definitely need to step up. ..jwh is having a field day too - I kind of expected that. ... but our guys need to start hitting it up strong. .. and hold the ball!

[nacho]

oH WE HAVE THE BALL! WAIT WE SHOULD GET HINCHY TO PLAY THE BALL THE WRONG WAY THAT'LL DO IT

[toffee]

Kurt Mann is seriously woeful, hopefully we don't see him again this year.

[KingHoweofIsrael]

Heard he might be off to the dragons. ...

I'm thinking the fork is almost ready to make an appearance. .. we're just about done. ... needed a result on that set

[yourhero]

I can't remember the last time I switched off a Storm game early. I'm done tonight. F*cking disgraceful.

[steaming stormer]

atrocious in every facet of the game.
Not going to comment too much on it until I see how we respond against Penrith Saturday night... that will show what sort of character we have

[yourhero]

There is no possible excuse for that rubbish. The Roosters had 5 players backing up from Origin, we had 3. That was primarily an effort issue which is hugely concerning.

[toffee]

You'd have thought the whole team was backing up from Origin, no urgency whatsoever, no line speed... 33 missed tackles, and the Roosters made nearly 900 metres more, Saturday will be interesting..

[LESStar58]

I haven't seen a more inept showing from a melbourne side for years. Dreadful.

[TC]

Piss poor. Inexcusably bad.

I want to hear six words and only six in the Storm press conference.
"That was unacceptable. We are sorry".

The only other words I would hope to hear are from Cam. "We didn't earn our pay tonight. It is all being donated to charity."

[yourhero]

The Roosters missed 5 tackles. The stat keeper gave up keeping track of how many we missed...

A shirt-grabbing, skirt-wearing, fairy effort in defence. Went well with our flaccid and equally soft attack.

[Brian]

Rest all the Origin Players.Give the game to someone who does not take their positions for granted.
Every year we suffer where a lot of the other Origin teams prosper.

Love origin to bits But not the time of year it is played.

Overall all the team was ordinary i thought.

Panthers at Panthers next weekend Bring it on

see some of you up there

[tugga]

That is as bad an effort as I have ever seen from our team.
Absolutely pitiful.
