Take out the luck and we won a 12-10 arm wrestle there.

Count me in for Croker next week..let the lad retire with 300.

Can’t handle another week of HSS arm grabs, dropped balls and drag backs when hitting the ball up..

I think you’ll find we lack quality playmakers
No. We are coached by an absolute **** who doesn't stray from plan A, when it's clear that plan A isn't working...
There is a plan A? It doesn't look like it. Unless "give it to Jack or Hudson, maybe Rapa, and hope they can do something amazing with it" counts as a plan.

its a piss take..... if you didnt laugh youd cry.....

but in all seriousness, with this season over its time to throw croker back in to get his 300..... he deserves it.
The problem is; if he plays a certain number of games in 1st grade this year, it triggers an automatic extension of his contract.
It's a simple game; tackle, back-up, pass, hold the ball! What did I say? "Hold the bloody ball!!"

Would love to see Ricky's press conference blaming the refs, blaming kicks, blaming bad luck

Blaming everyone and everything but his useless inept coaching
Bounce of the ball and stuff
Not to mention bleeding green and the boys are hurting.

I turned over to watch MASH when Riff went up 23-6.

We have issues. It’s not pretty.

I changed channel, I’ve never done that.

Lol. Is your life going to be more complete if Croker plays 300? I don't get the obsession. If he's the right man for the job and it we can avoid triggering his 2024 contract then by all means select him.

Honestly, you’re right.
But what the Hell anymore…
It’s not as if we have someone else waiting in the wings ..or a plan to do something with the wasted cap space on Croker’s extension..
If it gives some people joy, why not?

Exactly what I said about last weeks game T84, where we did not come out of the sheds with any enthusiasm and conceded 3 tries in 9 minutes. Same this week. The second half was all Poor Errors and Poor Defence and Poor Completions and Poor Coaching and Poor Motivation and Poor.....Raiders. Two weeks in a row Faiders. Undefeated Bronco's next week.

Can't argue. Wonder if Lozza is keen to play 5 more for 250.
