Commentators pulling no punches ,telling it like it is. If there is a grand master plan time to dust it off & tell the players about it. We are getting worse by the week .

Livett should be 13 instead of Clark and Johnson in instead of the ridiculous Lama Tasi. Another aussie coach who will simply refuse to drop another aussie. We're currently turgid.
Seemed that Tasi came on 30 minutes in and a few minutes later gave away a penalty for late challenge on the kicker. Don't know how he keeps getting picked.
For the amount Jason Clark must be on you'd expect so much more from him.
Players will be in a comfort zone if they know they won't be dropped.
I don't know what's wrong our attack is simply awful, our defence is looking worse by the week. Discipline is atrocious and has been all season. Being good defensively doesn't matter if you don't trouble the opposition. Anyone playing us just knows that they can keep it tight with a solid line and they won't be troubled really, they also know that sooner or later they will get opportunities and will score. We seem so easy to play at the minute it's unbelievable. I like Steve price but he needs to sort this and fast.
I'm coming round to the theory that defeat next week might not be so bad, and would save us from humiliation. Assuming Hull don't give us a good hiding.
Today was an opportunity to give a couple of players a chance to stake a claim for a SF spot, to shake the team up and dispel some of the apathy that is around the squad.
As it stands, depending on injuries, we'll be stuck with the same 17 who are frankly falling well below acceptable standards.
