Can’t agree. In that he may be a bit dim at times but come on PB he’s MENSA compared to Lino. I’m not convinced that this is the real Lino, it’s his twin as I’m sure this one would never get a game in the NRL :D

There was one out there today, that was linked with us a couple of years back and rang rings round ours. Sadly he wasn't rated at the time


Who?

Correct so why split up the partnership. Jeez I know your incapable of seeing fault with the club but even in your world disrupting the one bright spot of the season is beyond me.

My point about Poching is simple and obvious. We are a poor team and due to the fact that we are not lacking in efforts suggests the problem lays with the coach. Or has the whole dynamic of how sport works suddenly changed?

It’s a cliché I know but there is a point where the buck stops with the coach.


I asked you a straight question Vasty. Don't decend into the 'you are blinded' camp that can't explain their point.
For me, switching the centres round has worked. It's not like Murphy was getting any great passes recently.
Most agree Gaskell has played better since the change.

I agree, Poaching is liable but that includes tge good stuff too. They put a move on today that put Ashurst through a gap. Clearly a planned move as Miller hasn't been able to do that in ages but has done it twice recently.

I don't think Hall or Murphy's performance has suffered since the change either.

For me. Putting Tanginoa in SR is a mistake. But as nearly the whole forum moan when he isn't you can hardly blame him for giving him a chance.

We tried to get him and his price was more than most could afford. Which is why he's at Catalan.

But I agree. Head and shoulders better.

We've not had a decent half back since Finny got too old.
Hence why we've been on a decline since. Tried to paper over the cracks by signing Brough which failed.

Whatever you're opinions on Miller or Lino the basic facts are not one can control a game and neither of them have a kicking game in open play.

I am sorry and I know some of you will not agree but I believe we who support the club deserve better. If we survive which is still open to debate then we cannot go through another season like the last three.
We have seen players leave and not replaced thereby weakening the squad and it’s ability to compete. We have kept our end of the bargain by buying season tickets, merchandise and all the other additional costs we incur. We should expect the club to do their bit and generate enough income to improve the team year on year. If we survive then next season will be our 25th in SL I believe and what legacy do we have in that time.
I admit I have little confidence things will improve but they should for supporters who still believe in the club.

We say effort i just seen the 3rd try back and where clearly langi was out of play but there was absolutely no urgency from kershaw to get to the kick in the first place,
Re: Loads of effort no ability : Sun Aug 07, 2022 6:37 pm  
Lino is awful. Just dances around. Miller is no better the majority of games. They are the route cause of or inability to win games that we should be winning.

I have made my opinion known many times about the untouchable golden boy Miller
Not the worst stand off I have seen in a Trinity shirt but definitely the most overrated and I have supported Trinity since 75 as for Lino I would not pay him in washers

Big Dave was hopeless today and Battye looks like he would struggle for fitness at the Dog & Duck

Poaching is a club legend as a player but he is way out of this depth
I do not know if Brian McDermott applied for the job or not but if he did someone needs to take a long hard look in the mirror and give his head a wobble
