Poppa's Corner; The cattle is the problem, this maybe the catalyst to make us do some drastic things!

Forgive me, I need to get this off my chest!Yes the cattle is a problem, we knew that in probably every game we have won this year, just the same! I am/was devastated last night, the effort against Titans was probably a low point of the season ......so far?     BUT I actually saw some effort in last nights game !!!!.....that's why it hurts more than normal after a loss. Yes I know people will laugh at that but what I cannot accept is the execution....lack of focus and the giving up of the…

Remember when we were told Kaizen was not a catchphrase.

It seems to have disappeared from our team lexicon....Anyone know where it went??? Have folks seen any "incremental Improvements" roaming about in the wild or do fans think was just hopeful sloganeering...It doesn't seem to me that we can even incrementally improve our error rate or goal-kicking. options....I wonder, what  the japanese term is for "treading water but still sinking" .

Titans win tomorrow, eels 2nd last

Thank god for the dragons is all I can say. What a frustrating team we follow

Shark Attack..... Moses told to be wary of the surf!

Parramatta has moved their pre season training to Lennox Head for this week.They have been warned that when your luck is out, you need to be very careful going into the surf! in Northern NSW.Parramatta officials are very wary of these danger's as Cronulla Sharks have been preparing to go North for the ambush for sometime.

Poppa's Dilemma, Welcome to my Corner, come in and have a Cuppa with a Silly Old Bastard. I think it's New Year Shortly?

Well we have been having a few dilemma's around here lately and I am getting confused, from what I can tell we have a lot of problems telling our left from our right. We don't have this problem at home because my wife is always right and I am constantly being left out. They tell me I am getting old and stupid!
