that was really dissapointing

I just came back from the game. And that was really really disappointing. The boys just didnt look good at all. Too many errors for my liking and the stormers were the better side and deserved to win. The force made good breaks here and there, but failed to produce any result because they just couldnt make more than 5 phases. I thought the forwards werent at the breakdowns consistently and gave away heaps of possession. And the backs, when they did get the ball, were running too flat to create any gaps. This was well shown by the intercept which just showed how flat they were when running the ball. Stannard had a shocker when he came on. I know he's new and he's a local boy, but truth is, he's just not ready for the big games yet. He's just not tackling, cannot handle pressure and quite disappointing in his passing out of breakdowns. I reckon the force's best player was Shepherd, but even he wasnt at his best.

A bit worried to see Giteau leave, hopefully its nothing. Crusaders already lost dan carter, we cannot afford to lose giteau. A bit sad and anticlimatic for the sharpe's 100th game, but hopefully, mitchell will have some good words to the boys and we'll come back to beat the bulls next week. As for now, i've got endure a whole week of ripping from my saffa friends. I'm gonna lock myself in my room.

i hated that game
anyone who sat near me. im sorry
i lost my voice and now i almost cried hahaha BUT i got a pHOTO with some PLAYERS yeeeeeeeeeow brownie was sad they lost but ahh theres next week

WHY DIDNT OUR PLAYERS TACKLE!!!!! nick cummins tackle a fat stormer was very satisfying

[BLR]

Shepherd should be dropped, Chavanga was running twice the speed of him...he has been EXTREMELY average this whole season....

[NTT]

disappointing no-one showed any balls and lift for sharpies 100th..... and whats with the boys letting burger slam tackle gits not once but twice...someone should have belted the blonde meathead

[tragic]

I hope Gits and Pek are OK
Aside from that, I'm a bit shocked at just how awful that was I hope they're able to re-group and rediscover that spark and teamwork they know they have.
Farrout. I'm off to eat some chocolate.
