1.We are not getting good early ball to the play makers from the dummy half in addition the other teams know friend probably wont take a quick run from the play the ball so they are moving up really quickly on cronk and keary to put them under pressure.De belin was tasked with this when we played the merge and did it well.Manly did it on sunday.All teams will now employ this tactic against us AND mad if they didn't. 2.We have a young right center who is a terrific attacking player in Joey Manu playing on the wing outside latrell getting less ball than latrell who is getting none himself. 3 Latrell the most devastating player ball in hand in the world according to johns but he gets no ball except when he gets it to kick a goal or on a restart 3 We have a second row forward playing right center need i say any more? even the coaches MUST know this is not good as i saw fergurson come into right center in attack a couple of times on sunday his disallowed try was from RC 4 Then you have poor old teddy who is at the back trying to work out whats going on but then realizing nothing much is happening so takes a few runs up the middle.Thats some of it but on a positive note the defense is not too bad.

Because the start of every tackle is dummy half, and when that doesn’t ask any questions of the markers and other defenders, it makes the playmakers easy targets for a rushing defense. You don’t need a 200IQ to work it out.

What a load of bullshit. Fans at the games, Twitter and Facebook pointed the finger at the halfback being the problem and now we’ve upgraded the problem is hooker. Same problems, different players.
Now go run along to your 13-16 year olds on facebook and twitter and let the adults get on with their talk.

I don’t follow those opinions but that’s what the opinion of the majority of fans have whether you get triggered by it or not I don’t give a shit. The fans wanted a new halfback, the fans got a new halfback and now the fans realise that 7 wasn’t our issue and they’re coming up with hilarious bollocks to justify sitting in that deep hole they’re in because god damn they’re just realising we had a pretty decent NRL standard halfback in the first place.
Yeah we did, a pretty decent one. We got arguably the best to replace him
Our real issue wasn’t 7, it was our forward pack, which we haven’t addressed. JWH is not what he was before his knee injury(as expected), Napa is slow and cumbersome, Liu isn’t firing consistently, Matto is not a back rower,yet, Boyd is down on form, SST hasn’t hit his straps and Friend is really showing his age and showing glaring issues in his game that were masked by Pearce ALWAYS being the focal point of why we lost games or couldn’t get us to the next level, we don’t have a decent 3rd prop in our rotation, Maubs is getting on, Butcher is not getting a lot of game time and Radley is killing it

I know I'm not on me pat malone in thinking Pearce was an issue, and still would be if he didn't piss off to Newcastle.
Friends decline in form has nothing to do with it.
