    Mate, see you watch the match winning try last week?

    My 2 cents:

    Nathan Charles is bloody amazing. Got a bit too much aggression for the ref, but generally, I don't mind that in a player. Passionate. He couldn't throw a straighter line out if he tried, and he's everywhere on the park. Ties with Bam for my Man of the Match.

    I also may have been too quick to jump the gun with Ma'afu hate. Our scrum looks alright, and I won't pretend to understand scrums well enough to know if that's due to him or not.

    Tactics were toilet. Sheenan and Stannard had very poor games.

    I'm actually not as frustrated as I have been in previous weeks. They didn't drop their heads down 21 - nil. They scored 4 tries, first time in almost 2 years? More than the winners of the match. We kicked ineffectively, Pocock and our scrum were unfairly monstered by the whistle-monkey, and Winston Stanley should just become an automatic cut off - he was hopeless! In this sense, Richard Graham's comments from last week could be more accurate here. A couple of bounces of the ball differently, the whistle not retardedly blowing Pocock for a beautiful, legit turnover, another kick or a miss and we'd be singing their praises.

    They didn't drop their heads, they scored tries. Some creases, yea, decent sized ones, need to be ironed out. But I think we can take the reds.

    I gotta admit I thought it was a little "there there you guys" to supporters who were still pissed off and more likely just pissed TOCC. Maybe not intentionally.
    That said, the response was probably a tad extreme...

    Imagine who the 1st team could beat!

    We can't carry on like this. At this rate we will get dumped and they will have the Spears playing out of Perth.
    Actually that may be an improvement .

    Stanard was shite and Sheehan was crap in last nights game.
    We did nothing but kick away possession when we should have held the ball and run it.
    If there were any tactics last night they must have been left on the whiteboard.

    Well my kiwi mates reckon your kiwi mates are full of shut. My kiwi mates are also bigger than your kiwi mates and they say that your mates wouldn't know their jandals from their chilly bins. They reckon sharpie is almost as good as Zinzan Brook. Only sharpie has a better hair cut.

    If anyone cost us the game it was Stannard. One of the rebels tries came directly of his f#ckup and that is the 3rd time he concedes a try in 5 games. He is not a 10 and never will be a 10.
    IMHO he is going to cost us games if they don't move him, sack him, break his knee caps, run him over with a car or whatever.
    He will not get a rating of more than 1 from me ever....until they move him....

    Or players not doing their job and not waking up until 20 minutes into the game?
