It's about finding that next group of core players we can win with in the next 6, 8, 10 years. Let's face it, it's hard for 20-, 21-, 22-year-olds to lead an NHL team. Look at the playoffs.

It's foul play in the act of scoring, absolutely clear cut.

edit: yeah clear cut 8 point try not penalty try.

Absolutely, if we come back out with more of that poo poo we'll lose by 20.

Just didn't want it in that second half.

Hey the Leeds-Huddersfield game was a blast! Also it ended it a tie because League in the UK still is not completely free from the shackles of soccer, I guess. And it was a good tie, too, not like the Manly/Melbourne game.

I'm out of town and the internet connection where I am is a bit dodgy so I probably won't be checking any video until the weekend. Can anyone cover what the major problems were for us yesterday (other than lol everything).

Defense most obviously out wide both sides, but the right edge was worse, and less obviously up the middle where their shithouse pack got ridiculous metres. Also the reffing in general was atrocious but it was so bad both ways you couldn't really unravel the actual effect. Our spine had very little impact offensively, not helped by a lot of poor handling all around (goddamnit Sione Lousi hold onto the loving ball).

Also the Sharks v Titans match is predictably turning into a sooky oval office whine-off between Gallen and Bird.

edit: Don't check the video man just be thankful you dodged a bullet like that Raiders thrashing I missed a couple years back.

What was the right-side configuration? My guess would be Johnson/Bukuya/Tuimavave/Fish, on the assumption Bukuya bumped Mannering over to the left. Johnson is what he is, I have no idea what Bukuya's like on defence, I don't care much about Tuimavave (and Henry would probably be a better option if healthy) and Fish can do his job.

I'll take your advice and avoid looking for the video.
