We don't win this.

We suck.

@SouthernMann At least they didn't concede 55 points.

Too many journeyman

Hunt is woefully bad

Found that a very hard watch. Ref seemed to miss a lot of things and Tmo too. Thought play should have stopped for some injuries close to the play. Taking out players behind the ruck to clear the way for a pick and go is now legal? And not straight only applies at some lineouts and knock ons are ignored if ref not in line. Really don't know what Mr Berry was looking at a lot of the time. And I think that flowed into uncertainty from the players. Never knew when Nick thought ball was out.
Lowe Gilbert Ainsley Frizzell and Harmon went well. But Hegarty and Fines Leilawasa were best on the park for me.

That’s game legitimately made me wonder if I even like rugby any more
So many penalises, off side called every 3 or 4 rucks, cards firing around everywhere, players laying around in back play all the time
I know Im bias but fuck it, I think ppps and mmts cards were harsh, ppp falls across the line but the maul still forms, penalise if you have to but the game carried on
To me it looked like MMT just tackled a player breaking off the maul in an attempt to score, I don’t think he was part of the maul and so not sure how he could collapse it, maybe on re watch I’ll see what I’ve obviously missed
Burns was lively with ball in hand but damn the ball seemed it loose some psi every time we passed it too him because he can’t kick for shit, even sounded weird coming off his boot
We were shit, ref was shit rugby really can be shit

@Kiwiwomble Just watched the highlighs and really thought the Landers were pretty unlucky. They broke the line only to drop the ball,also was surprised the Landers never got awarded at least one penalty try. Berry desperately wanted the Force to win by the look of it.
