We just struggle to get some bang up the middle with the forwards. Paps was always so good at darting into the little gaps created from a strong carry or a quality offload.blazza18 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 18, 2024 10:42 pm Paps only went 5-6m a run tonight. Such a key component for us with and without the ball but we’ve gotta figure out a way for him to do more with less and get him some open space. He’s simply not a threat on kick returns atm and the dummy half runs for 2m don’t really do anything.
But it’s hard to watch Paps at the moment, he is playing within himself as well which doesn’t help.

Geez Robinson is sore loser....highlights NAS pushing Eli for about 1 nano second....and says it shouldn't have been a try and then moans about Reimis begin a disruptor on Xav's try...and also say no try. But doesn't mention the poor referring that failed to pick up Jennings losing the ball before Manu scored and doesn't say anything about Teddy the Tripper not being sin binned for a really low grubby act of trying to trip Pappy (especially as that sort of trip can easily break a guys leg...and with Pappy's long history of injuries anything could happen).
Remember this day, men, for it will be yours for all time
With the press conferences do the coaches choose which members of the press they have in the knowledge that they will ask "friendly" questions? I thought the media wanted sensationalism, their were a few more juicy questions that could've been asked,
ie.
"So James, what did you think about the tripping penalty and do you think you were lucky not to go to the bin or even be sent off?"
"Trent, what did you think of the missed knock on call against Jennings before Manu's try?"
"Do you think you were lucky when Paps had a 3 man overlap outside and instead attempted the inboard pass?"
I would love to hear their responses

No game this year is going to be a gimme based off these results.
But geez… You’d think with the Rabbitohs, Titans, Sharks and Eels in the next four weeks the guys could go 8-1 or at worst 6-3. Pretty outstanding considering the strength of opposition to open the season.

How average are the journalists if they can’t ask glaringly obvious questions. There seems to be a desperation to be liked by the coaches so they can keep getting scoops, instead of doing their jobs.
How the f*ck do you not as Trent about the knock on before the try or the dangerous trip!??
