Incredibly proud! If you compared player for player salaries of both teams today, they would have been close to double. That was all ticker today-especially in front of a huge Newcastle crowd
Don't take this the wrong way, I'm happy with the effort but boy do we make some absolutely ridiculous mistakes that even schoolboys would be ashamed to make.
That's two games now, storm and knights, that the opposition didn't turn up with the right attitude and gave us the game on a platter only for us to drop the platter, trip over it and then land on it.
Listening to Ryles' presser, he talked about the Hooking position. He mentioned Edwards was brought to the club as he can play dummy half as well as in the middle. But he also said Edwards allows Hookers to develop and play more mins in cup. So does that mean he might keep Smith in Cup? Drop Da Silva to Cup? Very odd comment.
To be honest, Smith and Dasilva need a stint. Especially Dasilva. Has all the talent in the world but needs to pick his timing comes with age and just crafting at it. Smith needs a stint , he just havinf a second year syndrome.
Both can't have a stint. I don't think either need a long term stint. The more they play the better they'll be. I wouldn't say Smith is having 2nd year syndrome as much as that sternum injury would have limited him a lot.
I hear what you are saying, and you are right, but that sounds like what we said in the early 90s when we never expected to come close to winning games. As a club we do need to be so much better than what has been dished up this season. There has been some good things, but there has also been some really bad errors and poor decision making. It's hard to see things getting much better in coming years without some very key signings.

I 💯 hear you there!
All we ask is for them to compete, but there comes a time where competing just doesn't cut it.
I'm proud of the effort, not proud of the basics that we get wrong every week
and I hate how we push passes on 1st and 2nd tackle, that Williams attempted offload when we where in the red zone on 2nd tackle killed me
