... I thought Sione wasn't half bad.. he did miss the tackle rushing up on Hayne but from what I could see he made the right decision...and made a lot of right decisions.For sure, everyone's views now from the players down to the fans should be a bit more grounded in reality now, if not even a little below reality. Our boys can now move past the bs & get on with it, hopefully allowing them to build their form over the season without the crazy pressure.
When I was 8 years old Christine Castles beat me in a game of marbles. I blew up delux and jobbed my mate that was watching. Ever since that day in 1969 I have been the worst loser on the planet. Winning isn't everything it's the only thing. That being said after the blow up I quickly move on. I don't care whether it was a trial or not my knee jerk reaction was "nothing's changed you goats" but soon after I was thinking we'll smash Manly.I can’t believe how negative everyone gets after a trial game and a week after half of you were singing top8 from the roof tops! The mood swings in here are worse then my misses at that time of the month
Big difference, negative and realistic, don't get to carried away with new buys and potential, every club is the same, let's be realistic and give our team a chance to develop whilst hoping for a good result. I will be cheering them on and hoping for a good result, doesn't have to be a win, 2 out of first 6 would be very good, but one of them won't be manly

I would rather you be right than me in a optimistically way, again fine line optimism and realismI still give us a good chance against Manly. Maybe it is the eternal optimist within.![]()

Don’t disagree with anyone and you will get along swimmingly! Have an opposing view and you’re the devilTotally agree. After one trial match everyone has dropped their marbles. We're still a good shot at making the 8, nothings changed in my books
I haven't changed my tune for a month and I get destroyed on here after we lose a trial for reiterating my long held opinions about some players

Do you have the article? A bit early to make that decision mate. Even if he scored/assisted a couple of tries on Friday, I would still say itd be too early to make that decision. Our attack & defence was just enough so it will be interesting to see who actually stands out going forward.Didn't have a great game on Friday. Robert Dillion said next contract could be 600k a year which sounded ridiculous to me.
