Such a dumb football team

Playing team coming last, with them also having one man down and still concede a field goal with no pressure on the kicker. 

Thank god that season is over. Such a dumb football team, too many errors and penalties given away, story of our season.

    • Exactly and facing a huge penalty count differential and nrl wanting to get dragons home for their players leaving makes it difficult lol. And just poor errors and focus. Dust it off and move on 

      • Why would the NRL want Dragons to win? We had an extra man for 10mins and scored 0 points again.

        • Cookie last game and jai arrow sitting front row watching him. Sin bin didn't really make up for the penalty count all game. But also eels error rate just bad to. But dragons had most of the good ball 

          • Still a sin bin, it is a big advantage that we never take care of. I really do not think that to be the case about Damien Cook's last game. There are heaps of last games this week. Not all results went their way.

            • Still played horribly yeah, but dragons got the rub of the green as they should. Their home game etc. had our chances and kept dropping it 

              • Exactly, extra man we should score at least once.

  • Field goal as way to early 

  • Just listening to some of Ryles post match press conference. Ryles said a few times he was very disappointed and blamed the attitude and application! But surely that really falls a lot on the coaching staff to get the players mind and attitude up front every game! This seems to be a continual on going issue at the Eels! Attitude and Application! Brian Smith used to have his players mental attitude primed even though unfortunately they never won a premiership under Smith and even Anderson had them mentally primed but these past years there's definitely a very poor weak attitude amongst the general playing group and unless Ryles can fix this problem I can't see it changing anytime soon. Maybe they need some psychological coach to get them mentally pumped up! 

    • Yeah Mallee, on this one i sort of agree. Though not all on the coach, they need to set the attitude of the players. The environment in which they are in for the game. Rugby league can really be a simple game a lot of the time and attitude is so important. But even in the BA tenure we had attitude and mental problems. It seems to be a culture thing this club cannot shake. 

      Though also, there players that can change attitude, set standards as well. 

  • Just decided to switch off. Very lackadaisical. Genuinely we just remain chill and collected for lat 20 mins we win. No big effort needed.

    We've known for a while the problem with this team is mentality. When they're on it they're great.

    It's the biggest stepping stone. Ryles' biggest job.
