Another dick of a referee but another performance where we've totally capitulated.

Disappointing stuff.



I think Andrew and Ben have become complacent.  Andrew has been involved with some All Whites tankings too.  Maybe its time for a new captain.

Fuck, I always get really insecure for the future of the club when I see us getting constantly pumped like this. Forget the Warriors, this is immeasurably worse.

Believe in a 4-3 to us.  Believe in playoff success.  Believe that MH370 was shot down by aliens.  I believe.

HArd to believe in 4-3 to us when we conceded 4 already.

Not arguing that but the commentator was talking about the game as a whole.
Question for you. As ADP just got a yellow for simulation, can they give him a second yellow in the after match review? Would they have the balls to? Ok it was two questions.

Uh... he just gave us a dodgy pen. I think the ledger has been squared in relation to that (and at least he has been consistent) and the dive was fair cop.
Unless of course there are other referee shockers that have gone against us tonight that we have all missed?

If I recall what Patrick said, the answer is no. Only mistaken identity and red cards not seen by the ref. Simulation is hardly a red card offence on its own.

I disagree, I think they both try hard.The problem is that they aren't quite good enough to make up for their lack of pace, which is only going to get worse as they get older (e.g next season). No amount of effort will make up for that.

Durante will be captain until he's no longer starting. But I'd say someone like Matthew Ridenton in three years could take over.

Whatever the case, we've not seen much leadership when we've been up against it this season. I'm unsure about Durante and whether he remains good enough.

Sigmund's recklessness costs us too often too. Gives 100% but is it enough?

Unlucky from Boyd there.

Next season he needs to give 110 %.

We should be thinking about replacing Durante, Sigmund, Muscat, Lia, Brockie, Stein.

I think that particular core of players have run their course now.
