@tiger5150 because the alternative offers nothing. You waste 2 tackles straight away just getting the set going .
The alternative to short drop outs?
There's been 2 voluntary tackles I the last 2 weeks, where we haven't laid a finger on the man laying on the ground and the ref has called held.
Top 8 2023
Is Bateman off his chops? He hasn't settled back since his flying UK visit in the bye round. Huge disappointment since then IMO.
@tiger5150 no that didn’t read right . I meant the alternative , offers nothing . The short drop out means they are relying on dump offs and dummy half runs the first 2-3 plays .
And when they do attack . It’s started at the 2-5m point so the defence can get up quick . I like it , is what I’m saying . We just need to be better at contesting it
Overall we played pretty well but the short drop outs are stupid. No idea why we persist with them, we never get the ball back and just puts us under continuous pressure.
Nofo is the worst player in the NRL.
I can't find the club presser on the nrl app.
Anyone see it? Did it happen?

stupid short drips out we need to stop doing them especially at 20 to 18
We need to get better at short kick offs. Not stop doing them.

Yeah it's on the NRL website.
One of the journos calls him "Sheenius" and Sheenius says "did you just call me Sheenius?"
Just when you think this season can’t get any stranger, this comes up. Think it’s time for Tim to call it a day to be honest. His players aren’t really listening to him and the journalists are trying to poke the bear. Give Marshall the reins now until this pile of rubbish is put into the ground.I can't find the club presser on the nrl app.

Totally agree. His delusion is only matched by his arrogance. Conveniently trotting out the 2-3 year re-build line to deflect blame from the dumspter fire that is WT in 2023 (oh, and 2022 after Tim did his bit). He (and we) need the "Thanks, Tim but don't come Monday" email to him ASAP.Just when you think this season can’t get any stranger, this comes up.

need Sheens there next year to run coverage for benji, give Sullivan fainu and sezer some time. Don't thinknwe can make the 8 next year but maybe 10th or so.
2025 would be the target year hopefully sezer is been and gone and sullivan and fainuntakenthe reigns
I was really excited for Sheens to take the reins but it hasn’t gone well. Roster management, selections, use of bench and general coaching has been poor. We have a far better roster but doing no better.
im also certain Marshall is nowhere near ready. Not sure what we do.
Every year we get excited about signings and every year it’s a disaster. Not sure why next year will be any different.
We need to get better at short kick offs. Not stop doing them.
Agree
Add it to the long list of in-game basics at which we're seriously below average.
