    Win what??

    Ever since Cronk retired we have lacked an organizer and someone to control a game.

    Other than 1 fluke we can't beat either the storm or panthers.

    And we are less than average in finals football without a halfback organizer and leader.

    DCE is a must, pair him with walker.

    Yet another game we win if Sam Walker plays this year, this club must have opened up a voodoo curse when it went back to back because it's been nothing injuries de-railing our seasons since then.

    I don't believe we win that game 5 times out of 10, you just can't win those types of games with the types of defensive errors we continue to make through the middle.

    Was great to see us competitive but we failed to close it out, same as we have a few times this year. That's not just bad luck.

    i told my wife he was good for a huge error and he didn’t disappoint.

    They can’t all be superstars I guess

    The telling factors were some of the main stats - set completions and errors

    Set completions - Roosters 65% vs Dogs 80%
    Errors - Roosters 18 - Dogs 8
    Yardage - second half the Roosters struggled to get out of their half and often kicking within their 40 - Running Metres - 1st half Roosters 779 to Dogs 541 - Second Half - Dogs 941 to Roosters 594
    Tackled in 20 - 1st half - Dogs 30 - Roosters 18 - 2nd Half - Dogs 29 - Roosters 17

    As good as Radley is at times besides banging the esky he clearly didn’t want to bang it tonite. That last effort was woeful.
    Watching his decline is like watching a champion fighter having too many fights.

    yeah fair enough

    we’re too young and stupid to grind out a win in a situation like that

    but that’s no surprise to me

    we’re a team in the making

    It's not a 50/50 probability when the Dogs continue to win games like that and we continue to lose games like that (See Warriors & Rabbitohs games previously).

    It's not all doom and gloom. We got within 4 points of the team that's top of the table and it highlighted a number of areas in our game that need work. It's also put the spotlight on a number of players that aren't up to scratch imo and are 1 step closer to being moved on.

    The one thing that bothers me when we lose like that is we pretty much stopped moving the ball around in the second half. We attempted to defend our way to victory which was always unlikely to work! The Dogs are a team that's been finishing games off strongly and they'll grow in confidence with every try.
