Robbo needs help

[Thirteen]

Good post. Robinson's coaching ability has fallen well short when SBW, RTS and Maloney were not in the mix. If anyone wants to disagree, please have a look at Newcastle... No stars other than a lonely Gagai, a roster of very ordinary players but only 2 wins below us. Yes, we have underwhelming performers this year ( Guerra, Hastings, Toupo, Moa, Evans, Copley and Pearce for his own actions) but this cannot be coincidence, the coach must wear the brunt for this years awful, awful results.

Despite being one of my favourites, I'd have to add Aubo to the list of under performing players in 2016.

They pretty much All look flat and tired.

Not sure what kind of help Roobo needs but watching Cronulla with their bunch of old rejects, 4 players at origin and one that got injured before half time, are smashing Penrith. Maybe Trent needs to study from Flanagan on how to do things right on a shoestring.

Are you suggesting Robbo embarks on a systematic doping program like Flanagan did?

How that guy is allowed anywhere near a football team is beyond me.....

I'm saying that they're doing something right, NOW! With rejects and many of their best out of a game. Don't twist my words!!!

I believe our fitness is a great concern. We come out firing then seem to go through flat moments with no energy at all. Parra only had 15 men but we looked way more tired than them. These flat moments are leading to these silly mistakes that are letting teams run over us. Yes it's a attitude thing but I just don't believe the right work was done this off season in regards to the changes in interchange

[The ticket]

Losing is contagious just like winning. The team is playing without confidence and without luck. Sometimes you need a bit of luck which gives you a boost and turns confidence around, particularly when you have young kids in the side. IMO you cant just say the coach is shite

This year is annus horribilus, just relax and wait for next year. We will be back in the eight i have no doubt.

I think this is a very good point. Our bench has also failed to deliver any momentum when it comes on. This is partly because of injuries to key forwards but even the rare times we've had all our key forwards, Moa and Evans have been disappointing.

I agree that the side hasn't been prepared properly for the season slog and now we just can't get into gear.

Our attack is atrocious. No structure, no set ups, no backing up, just throw it around with the ball going backwards most sets before bombing on the 5th. Yes Robbo needs help!

Can't wait to hear robbo explain his decision to put our most dynamic back play on the wing, fergo to fullback, and a 2nd rower to center, yet leave out a speedster in manu.

[Arties Pie]

Robbo has gone troppo, FFS Fergo to Fullback what sort of crap move was that, he was garbage in the position at the start of the season as he can't catch, read defence, pass or tackle. I just don't get alot of his decisions this season.

[mightyrooster]

Perhaps Robbo put Flake at FB because his and Copley's defence in the centres is utter trash. Perhaps he thought the Storm practised all week doing sweeping backline movements to score a multitude of tries down our wings. Perhaps he read the Chookpen experts and decided Latrell needed a rest as he concedes as many tries as he scores with his lazy movements and out of position play in defence.
Perhaps Robbo thought he'd try the Chookpen experts suggestions of shaking things up and making changes and dropping a player.

We don't have to be amazing every year but I'd still like it if we were at least competitive every year.
