Hurting in the sheds? Textas?

I don’t think we gave ourselves much of an opportunity to bleed green while dropping the ball every 2nd possession, so he can’t say that.
Sorry to the fans, everything to play for and we dish up this ****

I’d trade Semi Valemei on 50k per year for Geoff McNamara on 500
well, I guess you could say that I'm buy curious.

What was most painful tonight? Sutton's performance, Valemei's performance or the commentary of Cooper Cronk?

Sometimes refs try and safe face for an embarrassing penalty by putting the offender on report.

Really wish this game was closer so these ref calls were brought into it... They are just insane...

That was a wicked bounce
Gina Riley: Oh, come on, John. That’s a bit old hat, the corrupt IOC delegate.
John Clarke: Old hat? Gina, in the scientific world when they see that something is happening again and again and again, repeatedly, they don’t call it old hat. They call it a pattern.

76th min TRY ROOSTERS to Lachlan Lam. They get a rebound from a Canberra touch. Adam Keighran fails to convert, hits the post and bounces away. It's still a paddlin'.

It's a coin toss for worst performance. Raiders or the ref.

Wow. Save the best till last.

Roosters were awful too. Got away with some obvious errors and had plenty of poor play themselves. They are toast.

The opening game against Wests seems like yesterday and an age away.

I hate this team.

the biggest issue isnt losing this game...

I think it is good to be comprehensively beaten so Ricky can't go around boasting of making the 8 or just missing out by one or two. He is an appalling coach and I doubt I will re-new my membership if he is still the coach.
It's a simple game; tackle, back-up, pass, hold the ball! What did I say? "Hold the bloody ball!!"

Got the outcome we deserved after that seasons play, selection, bench use, strategy and execution.

Absolutely flattered by being on the edge of the 8.

Wasted a year on old hacks through sentiment when we _might_ have blooded /recruited a team to be ready for next year.
