    Of all the dropped balls which came off high risk plays?
    Some just try and find things that aren't there to blame someone.

    Discipline is always our Achilles heel why are we the most error prone team year after year? I agree with Bates Robbo’s system hasn’t worked for years, all other teams have to do is wait for plan A to fail and we implode and like clockwork the same shit was dished up last night, we dominated possession for large parts of the game and came away with 2 only tries we should have come away with 4 plus tries at least considering how much possession we had.

    A fresh approach is needed, we need to do what the Riff has done for years if we want to compete for a title.

      The point is that we weren't making errors because of pushing passes that weren't required because of our attack. It wasn't high risk, hit and miss style footy. Someone said that a while ago and every time we lose the sheep bring that up. We were losing balls in tackles. Just taking the ball up. Our plan was fine. We had control of the game both halve when we held the ball. No plan A, B or C succeeds when you don't hold the ball.

        Bates please.

        Hugo made 3 runs for 25 metres with his only really positive contribution being in defence, he was ineffective and Walker had a bad game making a ton of errors and not doing that much either. This is the perfect example of a game where an older and experienced player would've came in and been able to stand up and dominate when the younger players were not able to do so.

        Manly did not have a very good roster at all this year. Tom Trbojevic is pretty much done and rumoured to be Super League bound, Manly will do better next year if they move Trbojevic on and try to rebuild the spine, Fogarty is a good pick up.

          Mate, Manly not making the 8 speaks volumes on just how effective DCE is these days.....And like he's ever been a running threat. lol

          We've given the old bloke in the halves experiment a crack and Chad embarrassed the club. The 6 again era is for the young blokes! Just ask Luke Keary if you don't believe me or Billy Slater who dumped DCE after origin 1.

          Fingers crossed DCE retires. Walker, Savala and T Rodwell are the future and we're fortunate to have them.

            i'm assuming there's an agreement for him to come that we won't backtrack on. i hope robbo and him get together and have a serious talk about what's best for the club. personally, i'm ambivalent
