No injuries.
All other comments:
- After the first minute of the game I immediately knew that no matter how good we try to play that we would not win the game. The corruption was pretty clear. But wow we played awful.
- The sin bin was obviously a horrible decison by the ref
- The captain challenge was another horrible decison by the ref
- The number of 6 agains on 4th and 5th tackle just because Grant asked the ref for it was BS.
- Iongi getting a high tackle and than a crusher but not getting a penalty for it. Than being sent for the HIA was BS too.
- We lost control of the ruck because we would get pinged for a 6 again the moment we held on for a second. What were the eels meant to do. Two different games were beign reffed. Storm are the one team you CANNOT give loads of possession and a quick ruck too. We have zero match fitness since round 1, so that spine, our errors and refs but it impossible to defend under fatigue. We played 60min with 12 men too.
- Now enough complaining about the ref.
- Kelly and Penisni still cant defend 1 on 1 tackles consistently.
- Pezet is overrated. He is not a 6 and looked good at Storm in theri system. He is slow and a poor defender.
- Da Silva is a reserve grader. 1 year into a 4 year contract and I may have already given up on him. His service is putrid. He cannot control a ruck even though he didnt miss a tackle. His decison making is poor.
- Smith had the worst game of his career. Errors, missed tackle, etc. Really hope this was a one off
- Our bench rotation was completely fucked up because of the Iongi HIA. Our bench was a fullback (Papalii), hooker (TDS) and 2 small forward in Doorey and Walker. They had no chance in competing with Storms elite spine and big forward pack once they got a roll on (plus refs help).
No one is saying we played a great game or were not poor with our handing. We hurt oursleves for sure. But apply all the context. Refs fucking over from the start. The bench we had to use cause of the HIA BS. The countless 6 agains. Try to control the ruck and get pinged. Versing the best spine in the comp with all of that is impossible even if we completed well the refs wouldnt let us win I am certain of it.

Second half against the Dolphins in 2024 up at Darwin was probably the worst I've seen.
Yep that was poor and the raiders game that same year torn apart that game too.
We got flogged last year in the very same game by 50 points. What did we learn? What did we change? Nothing! Got flogged again by 50. Ryles has a long lomg eay to go. If you dont learn from your mistakes you never improve. Negative 50 is like 3 losses. Useless cunts.
Exactly 💯
Another positive comment, for now, is that it seems we wont miss much from Pezet going to Brisbane.
Oh and one more, De Belin has a CO for we can cut our losses for 2027. That is a positive.
I thought De Belin started the game strong. The moment he went off our ruck was even worse.
Tell who we do miss DB.
Truth! Recall everyone whining about Dylan on 900k or whatever he was. One thing for sure, Pezet better not be on a third of what Dylan was on going on last nights shit show!

Though, with Russell back at centre & JAC on wing, hopefully it helps defensively? I don't think JR will keep Kelly & Pezet defending together.
JAC will be awhile out and problem is NOS, we have really got no one to replace that's ready. Kelly ain't up to it defensively, pezet was just nothing tbh it's gonna take kahunas by Ryles to drop him if another coupla poor performance like that...he played like he didn't want to! JDS similar. Was Ryley's worst game by miles wondered if he was crook? Simmo atrocious worst game from him I remember for awhile. Junior played far too many mins in first half...Hopgood copping it but at least he tackled his heart out as did Williams.
how does a huge western Sydney club lack a decent bloody winger or two in junior ranks.,.find it simply unbelievable
omg where does Ryles start from?
