I cannot see how anyone could simply put this putrid statistic down to them being levels above us. Missing the OPs and others point entirely. Of course they are better than us. That's the issue. They have evolved and improved, we have stood still.
It's on Robinson to evolve. Sure some of our players have underperformed and we have had awful luck with injuries, but when it comes to these big games, we make the same mistakes over and over and over and over again. Play well for 10 mins, lose our heads in attack, gas out in defence, drop the ball and give penalties away. Riff and Storm play dark arts footy well and it seems we are either unwilling or unable to do that. I was actually very confident tonight because I thought we couldn't surely make the same mistakes we always do, the pressure was all on them and not on us and we had the strike to do it... but we didn't. Why?
Until that changes, there will rightfully be questions on the coach and the club in general. I love Robbo but he is becoming less cerebral and seems to be coasting. Like there is no pressure on him to succeed whatsoever.
If you have the attitude of it being part of sport and are happy being mediocre, riding a few cheap highs and then being predictably humbled, go and support another club. I suggest the Tigers or the other joint venture. Maybe the Titans.

It’s certainly something robbo needs to address
being flat track bullies
injuries havnt helped but still
we leaked 16 tries in 3 finals games, in 2019 we leaked 4 in the finals
it will be on robbos mind next year to until we actually beat them

How the heck did a bunch of Q cup players + rejects from other clubs and a few guns out perform our 17 players last night ?
Player for player ... they had us beat.
Fitter, faster, more aggressive, and determined to be both solid in attack and defence.
It was like the Storm players were running around all on "special juice" and our boys on the chemist warehouse special protein shakes. Same bloody thing time and time again and also with Penrith.
Why is just these two teams that we can't figure out ? 14x other teams, no problems, we look like world beaters but Melbourne and Penrith, some special voodoo magic comes over us and we turn up like a Harold Matts side for a training run.
It can't be as simple as better coaching or coaching style, surely not !?

I'm wondering are you seriously a Chooks fan?
Quite sad your a defender of mediocrity.
I can snipe all I like...I'm not paid very good money to coach this club.
